The entire scientific Astronomical and Cosmological community assumes that it's the Doppler effect, since that's the only existing scientific explanation for the shifts in wavelengths away from what they're supposed to be. The whole theoretical structure of the "Big Bang" and the expanding universe is built on that understanding.

If anybody ever comes along and discovers another way for electromagnetic waves to get longer or shorter on their way to us through space, then the whole big bang and expanding universe may be out the window.

Answer:

a = 7.5 m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law, let's create a coordinate system with the x axis parallel to the plane and the y axis perpendicular to the plane

Y axis

N - W cos θ = 0

N = mg cos θ

X axis

W sin θ = m a

mg sin θ = m a

a = g sin θ

let's calculate

a = 9.8 cos 40

a = 7.5 m / s²

After driving a portion of the route, the taptap is fully loaded with a total of 27 people including the driver, with an average

lara [203]

Answer:

compression of spring is x = 0.12 m

Assumed k = 160,000 N/m ........ Truck's suspension system

Explanation:

Given:

- The mass of average person m_p = 69 kg

- Total number of persons n_p = 27

- The mass of each goat m_g = 15 kg

- The total number of goats n_g = 3

- The mass of each chicken m_c = 3 kg

- The total number of goats n_c = 5

- The total mass of bananas m_b = 25 kg

Find:

How much are the springs compressed?

Solution:

- Using equilibrium equation on the taptap in vertical direction:

F_net = F_spring - F_weight = 0

- Compute the force due to all the weights on the taptap:

F_weight = (n_p*m_p + n_g*m_g + n_c*m_c + m_b)*9.81

F_weight = (69*27 + 3*15 + 5*3 + 25)*9.81

F_weight = 19109.88 N

- The restoring force of a spring is given by:

F_spring = k*x

Where, k is the spring stiffness and x is the displacement:

F_weight = F_spring

19109.88 = k*x

x = 19109.88 / k

We need to assume the spring stiffness we will take k = 160,0000 N/m (trucks suspension systems). The value of the stiffness must be high enough to sustain a load of 1.911 tonnes.

x = 19109.88 / 160,000

x = 0.1194 m ≈ 0.12 m = 12 cm

- A compression of 12 cm seems reasonable for a taptap to carry 1.911 tonnes of load. Hence, the assumption of spring stiffness was reasonable. Hence, the compression of spring is x = 0.12 m.

Why are we not able to see immediate after we enter a dark hall from a lighter place.

Kipish [7]

Technically this is a Biology question;

The 'amount' we can see depends on how much light can get through our pupil to hit our retina.
When there is a lot of light the pupil is small; it doesn't need to be big to let a lot of light in.
When we move to a dark space there is much less light, so the pupil 'dilates' to let enough light so we can see properly.
The period in which one cant see is simply when the pupil hasn't had time to change shape yet so doesn't let in enough light.<span />
