A spectroscope prism separates the white light from a star into a very wide spectrum. When widely spread, black lines appear in

the spectrum. Particular elements in a star create specific patterns in the lines.
What can you conclude about a spectroscope from this passage?

a
It allows scientists to determine a star's evolutionary stage.
b
It helps scientists measure a star's mass.
c
It helps scientists detect dark matter.
d
It allows scientists to determine which elements are present in a star.

A lawnmower engine running for 20 min does 4,560,000 j of work. what is the power output of the engine? (power: p = w/t)
Alex73 [517]

Explanation:

Power is defined as the rate at which work is done in per unit time.

Mathematically,            Power = \frac{Work}{Time}

It is given that work done by engine is 4,560,000 J and time is 20 minutes.

There is 60 seconds in 1 minute. So, convert minutes into seconds as follows.

                     20minutes \times \frac{60 seconds}{minute}

                 = 1200 seconds

Calculate power output of the engine as follows.

                     Power = \frac{Work}{Time}        

                                        = \frac{4,560,000 J}{1200 sec}

                                        = 3800 J/s

  or,                                 = 3800 Watt

Therefore, the power output of the engine is 3800 Watt.

A roller coaster car rapidly picks up speed as it rolls down a slope. as it starts down the slope, its speed is 4 m/s. but 3 sec
Arisa [49]
Vi = 4 m/s
vf = 22 m/s
t = 3s
a = ?

vf = vi + a * t
vf - vi = a * t
a = (vf - vi) / t
a = (22 - 4) / 3
a = 6 m / s^2

A patient is given supplemental antidiuretic hormone (ADH). How will the patient's kidneys respond to the ADH?
kvv77 [185]
ADH binds onto the cells of the collecting duct and makes them more permeable to water, thus more water is reabsorbed by osmosis back into the blood. The blood becomes more dilute and the urine more concentrated

A 70-kg runner begins his slide into second base where he is moving at a speed of 40.0 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction
zhenek [66]

Answer:

(a) K.E = 56000 J = 56 KJ, (b) d = 116.618 m

Explanation:

Given:

m = 70 Kg, Vi = 40.0 m/s, Vf= 0 m/s, μk = 0.70

Solution:

(a) K.E. =? J  (due to motion of the runner the mechanical energy loss is in the form K.E.)

K.E. = 1/2 m v² = 0.5 ×70 kg × (40.0 m/s)²

K.E = 56000 J = 56 KJ

(b) distance d =? m

W= F × d

∴W = K. E = 56000 J and F= mg μk

K.E. = mg μk × d

so 56000 J =  70 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 0.70 × d

d = 116.618 m
