An astronomy class is so excited by the discovery of planets around other stars that they decide to do a library exhibit on the

subject so that everyone in the school can learn about it. In this exhibit they want to pay tribute to both the astronomers of today who have done the work AND some of the scientists of the past whose work was essential to making the discoveries possible (and directly related to the techniques involved). Which of the following scientists of the past should definitely be included in the exhibit?
a. George Herbigâ
b. Ejnar Hertzsprungâ
c. Ptolemyâ
d. Gerard Kuiperâ
e. Christian Dopplerâ

Answer: e. Christian Dopplerâ

Explanation:

Based on the information given, the scientist of the past that should definitely be included in the exhibit is Christian Dopplera.

He described how the frequency of sound waves and light is being affected by the relative speed of both the source and also the observer. This was referred to as the Doppler effect.

In this scenario, the Doppler effect can be used to show how the universe is expanding. Therefore, the correct option is E.

Airida [17]

Answer:

D) The heavier ball will have a higher temperature because the change of temperature is inversely proportional to mass.

Explanation:

As stated in the problem, the amount of heat released by each ball is

Q=mC_p \Delta T

where

m is the mass of the ball

Cp is the specific heat of iron (so, it is equal for both balls)

\Delta T is the change in temperature of each ball

In this problem, we are said that the amount of heat released by the two balls, Q, is the same. Cp is also the same: this means that the product m\Delta T must be the same for the two balls. So, the mass and the change in temperature are inversely proportional: therefore, the heavier ball will have a smaller change in temperature. And since both balls starts from the same temperature, 100 C, this means that the heavier ball will reach a higher temperature than the lighter ball.

In the Hydrogen atom, the energy spacing between the is 4.07 x 101 J (Joules). When an is the frequency of the photons emitted?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The frequency of the photon is 3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy E=4.07\times10^{-19}\ J

We need to calculate the energy

Using relation of energy

E_{4}-E_{2}=\Delta E

Where, \Delta E =  energy spacing

4h\nu-2h\nu=4.07\times10^{-19}

\nu=\dfrac{4.07\times10^{-19}}{2h}

Put the value of h into the formula

\nu=\dfrac{4.07\times10^{-19}}{2\times6.63\times10^{-34}}

\nu=3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz

Hence, The frequency of the photon is 3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz.
