What’s the doing between high and low pressure systems.

1 answer:

5 0

High pressure systems entail sinking air, while lows entail rising air. High pressure systems form where air converges in the higher levels of the atmosphere. The converging air has nowhere to go and is forced to sink toward the ground. This sinking effect inhibits cloud formation and therefore precipitation.

A distant galaxy has a redshift z = 5.82 and a recessional velocity vr = 287,000 km/s (about 96% of the speed of light.) Notice

vlabodo [156]

Answer: 4100 Mpc

Explanation:

Since H o = 70 km/s/Mpc

Redshift z = 5.82

Recessional velocity vr = 287,000 km/s

Then, the distance to the galaxy in light years will be:

= Recessional velocity / H o

= 287000 / 70

= 4100 Mpc

An unknown substance has a mass of 11.9 g . When the substance absorbs 1.071×102 J of heat, the temperature of the substance is

Mashcka [7]

Answer: The most likely identity of the substance is iron.

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

Q = Heat absorbed= $1.071\times 10^2$ Joules

m= mass of substance = 11.9 g

c = specific heat capacity = ?

Initial temperature of the water = $T_i$ = 25.0°C

Final temperature of the water = $T_f$ = 45.0°CChange in temperature , $\Delta T=T_f-T_i=(45-25)^0C=20^0C$

Putting in the values, we get:

$1.071\times 10^2=11.9\times c\times 20^0C$

$c=0.45J/g^0C$

The specific heat of 0.45 is for iron and thus the substance is iron.

For a 50 kV anode voltage, what is the maximum photon energy of the x-ray radiation?

V125BC [204]

Answer:

The energy of photon, $E=8\times 10^{-15}\ J$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage of anode, $V=50\ kV=50\times 10^3\ V=5\times 10^4\ V$

We need to find the maximum energy of the photon of the x- ray radiation. The energy required to raise an electron through one volt is called electron volt.

$E=eV$

e is charge of electron

$E=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 5\times 10^4$

$E=8\times 10^{-15}\ J$

So, the maximum energy of the x- ray radiation is $8\times 10^{-15}\ J$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
