Answer:

c. hot material must be rising from the Sun's hotter interior

Explanation:

Granulation is the grainy appearance of the solar photosphere produced by the top of the convection cells in the sun.

The grainy appearance are produced by granules on the photosphere of the sun and granules are caused by convection currents of plasma within the sun's convection zone.

The interior of these granules are brighter (and thus hotter) than the exterior of the granules which are darker.

<u>So, the granulation pattern that astronomers have observed on the surface of the Sun tells us that hot material must be rising from the Sun's hotter interior.</u>

You mount a ball launcher to a car. It points toward the back of the car 39 degrees above the horizontal and launches balloons a
kvasek [131]

Answer:

9.4 m

Explanation:

We can use a moving frame of reference with the same speed as the car. From this frame of reference the car doesn't move. The origin is at the back of the car, the positive X axis points back and the positive Y axis points up.

If the ballon is launched at 9.7 m/s at 39 degrees of elevation.

Vx0 = 9.7 * cos(39) = 7.5 m/s

Vy0 = 9.7 * sin(39) = 6.1 m/s

If we ignore air drag, the baloon will be subject only to the acceleration of gravity. We can use the equation of position under constant acceleration.

Y(t) = Y0 + Vy0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

Y0 = 0

a = -9.81 m/s^2

It will fall when Y(t) = 0

0 = 6.1 * t - 4.9 * t^2

0 = t * (6.1 - 4.9 * t)

t1 = 0 (this is when the balloon was launched)

0 = 6.1 - 4.9 * t2

4.9 * t2 = 6.1

t2 = 6.1 / 4.9 = 1.25 s

The distance from the car will be the horizonta distance it travelled in that time

X(t) = X0 + Vx0 * t

X(1.25) = 7.5 * 1.25 = 9.4 m

a proton of mass 1 u travelling with a speed of 3.6 x 10 ^4 m/s has an elastic head on collision with a helium nucleus initially
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Velocity of the helium nuleus  = 1.44x10⁴m/s

Velocity of the proton = 2.16x10⁴m/s

Explanation:

From the conservation of linear momentum of the proton collision with the He nucleus:

P_{1i} + P_{2i} = P_{1f} + P_{2f] (1)

<em>where P_{1i}: is the proton linear momentum initial, P_{2i}: is the helium nucleus linear momentum initial, P_{1f}: is the proton linear momentum final, P_{2f}: is the helium nucleus linear momentum final </em>

<u>From (1):</u>

m_{1}v_{1i} + 0 = m_{1}v_{1f} + m_{2}v_{2f} (2)

<em>where m₁ and m₂: are the proton and helium mass, respectively, v_{1i} and v_{2i}: are the proton and helium nucleus velocities, respectively, before the collision, and v_{1f} and v_{2f}: are the proton and helium nucleus velocities, respectively, after the collision </em>

By conservation of energy, we have:

K_{1i} + K_{2i} = K_{1f} + K_{2f} (3)

<em>where K_{1i} and  K_{2i}: are the kinetic energy for the proton and helium, respectively, before the colission, and K_{1f} and  K_{2f}: are the kinetic energy for the proton and helium, respectively, after the colission </em>

<u>From (3):</u>

\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1i}^{2} + 0 = \frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1f}^{2} + \frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2f}^{2} (4)  

<u>Now we have two equations: (2) ad (4), and two incognits: v_{1f} and v_{2f}. </u>

Solving equation (2) for v_{1f}, we have:

v_{1f} = v_{1i} -\frac{m_{2}}{m_{1}} v_{2f} (5)

<u>From getting (5) into (4) we can obtain the v_{2f}:</u>

v_{2f}^{2} \cdot (\frac{m_{2}^{2}}{m_{1}} + m_{2}) - 2v_{2f}v_{1i}m_{2} = 0

v_{2f}^{2} \cdot (\frac{(4u)^{2}}{1u} + 4u) - v_{2f}\cdot 2 \cdot 3.6 \cdot 10^{4} \cdot 4u = 0

From solving the quadratic equation, we can calculate the velocity of the helium nucleus after the collision:

v_{2f} = 1.44 \cdot 10^{4} \frac{m}{s} (6)

Now, by introducing (6) into (5) we get the proton velocity after the collision:

v_{1f} = 3.6 \cdot 10^{4} -\frac{4u}{1u} \cdot 1.44 \cdot 10^{4}

v_{1f} = -2.16 \cdot 10^{4} \frac{m}{s}

The negative sign means that the proton is moving in the opposite direction after the collision.

I hope it helps you!

1. How long would the car in Sample Problem C take to come to a stop from its initial velocity of 20.0 m/s to the west? How far
Brilliant_brown [7]

The time taken, and the distance travelled by the car before stop, will be 5.3 second and -53.3 m west.

<h3>What is the distance?</h3>

The length of the path traveled by the body is known as the distance covered by the body.

Distance is a 1-dimensional phenomenon. its unit is a meter(m). The distance can be found by the product of velocity and time.

The given data in the problem will be

u is the initial velocity =20m/sec

t is the time =?

d is the distance =?

From the Newtons second law;

\rm  F \triangle t = \triangle P \\\\ \triangle t = \frac{\triangle P }{F} \\\\ \triangle t = \frac{m(v_f-v_i)}{F} \\\\ \ \triangle t = \frac{2240 (0-20))}{8410} \\\\ \triangle t = 5.3 \ sec \\\

The distance travelled before the car stop is,

\rm \triangle t = \frac{1}{2} (v_f+v_i)\traingle t \\\\ \traingle x = \frac{1}{2} (-20+0)5.3 \\\\\ \triangle x= -53.3 m \ west

Hence,the time taken, and the distance travelled by the car before stop, will be 5.3 second and -53.3 m west.

A geologist finds that a Moon rock whose mass is 8.94 kg has an apparent mass of 6.18 kg when submerged in water. What is the de
Grace [21]

Density of rock = 3.23 Kg/m^3

Given:

mass of Moon rock = 8.94 kg

apparent mass of Moon rock = 6.18 kg

To Find:

density of the rock

Solution: It is a universal fact that mass of an object remains constant whether measured on earth or on moon.

Mass of rock on moon/earth = 8.94 kg

When the block is immersed in water then;

Loss in weight = weight of water displaced

Loss in weight = 8.94 - 6.18 = 2.76 kg

As we know that water has a density of 1g/cm^3 (1000kg/m^3)

Volume of water = volume of the rock = Mass/density = 2.76 kg

density of rock mass/volume = 8.94/2.76 = 3.23 Kg/m^3

Density of rock = 3.23 Kg/m^3

ycow [4]
The tail consists of gas and dust that can extend hundreds of millions of kilometers away from the coma. Most comets actually have 2 tails: a plasma tail made of ionizedgas, and a dust tail made of small solidparticles. Comet tails point away from the Sun.
