Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time. The velocity of the first airplane is 650 m/h at a heading of 60.5 ◦ . The velo
Assoli18 [71]
First, illustrate the problem as shown in the attached picture. Next, let's find the distance traveled by planes A and B after 2.9 h.

Distance of A: 650 m/h * 2.9 h = 1,885 m
Distance of B: 560 m/h * 2.9 h = 1,624 m

Then, we use the cosine law to determine the distance x. The angle should be: 85 - 60.5 = 24.5°

x² = 1,885² + 1,624² - 2(1,885)(1,624)(cos 24.5°)
x = √619381.3183
<em>x = 787 m</em>

Name five characteristics of a star that can be determined by measuring its spectrum. Explain how you would use a spectrum to de
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Chemical composition, Temperature, Radial velocity, Size or diameter of the star, Rotation.

Explanation:  

Elemental abundances are determined by analyzing the relative strengths of the absorption lines in the spectrum of a star.

The Spectral class to which the star belongs gives the information related to the temperature of the star. It is the spectral lines that determine the spectral class O B A F G K M are the spectral classes.

By measuring the wavelengths of the lines in the star's spectrum gives the radial velocity. Doppler shift is the method used to find the radial velocity.

A star can be classified as a giant or a dwarf . A giant star will have narrow width spectral lines whereas a dwarf star has wider spectral lines.

Broadening of the spectral lines will determine the star's rotation.

Imagine you are holding an apple. how could you increase the potential energy of this apple?
Ray Of Light [21]

If you're holding the apple at your waist, lift it to your mouth.
Potential energy relative to any level is proportional to its height
above that level.  Increase that height, and you've increased the
potential energy.

Since energy is conserved ... it never magically appears or
disappears ... you need to tell where that extra energy for the
apple came from.

It's exactly the work you did ... the force of your muscles acting
through the distance you raised the apple ... that became the
additional potential energy that the apple gained.
