Many scientific discoveries are made by chance. While studying one phenomenon, a scientist may discover a different one. Such wa

s the case when William Herschel discovered the planet Uranus in 1781. Herschel was charting faint stars in the sky, when he discovered something that was not a star. How can astronomers tell the difference between a star and a planet

Answer:

One simple explanation is that planets move, while stars remained fixed in the sky. You can observe a planet's orbit, but a star will stay in the same position.

Positive charge Q is placed on a conducting spherical shell with inner radius R1 and outer radius R2. The electric field at a po
gregori [183]

Answer:

E = 0    r <R₁

Explanation:

If we use Gauss's law

      Ф = ∫ E. dA = q_{int} / ε₀

in this case the charge is distributed throughout the spherical shell and as we are asked for the field for a radius smaller than the radius of the spherical shell, therefore, THERE ARE NO CHARGES INSIDE this surface.

Consequently by Gauss's law the electric field is ZERO

           E = 0    r <R₁

What part of the electromagnetic spectrum can be seen by humans
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Visible light

Explanation:

Electromagnetic spectrum is the classification of the electromagnetic waves according to their frequency/wavelength. In order from the shortest to the longest wavelength, we have

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared

Microwaves

Radio waves

All these waves are invisible to human eye, except for the part referred as 'visible light'. The electromagnetic waves of this part of the spectrum are visible to human eye, and they appear as a different color depending on their wavelength. In particular, we have:

Violet: 380-450 nm

Blue: 450-495 nm

Green: 495-570 nm

Yellow: 570-590 nm

Orange: 590-620 nm

Red: 620-750 nm

A baseball is thrown with an initial velocity of 45.4 m/s at an angle of 31.2 ∘ .
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

V (initial vertical velocity) = 45.4 sin 31.2 = 23.52 m/s

1/2 m V^2 = m g h      conservation of energy

h = V^2 / (2 g) = 23.52^2 / 19.6 = 28.2 m       max height

Check:

t = 28.2 / 9.8 = 2.88 sec    time to reach max height

h = 23.52 * 2.88 - 1/2 g 2.88^2 = 27.1 m
