Answer:

doppler effect

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:

c. 48 cm/s/s

Explanation:

Anna Litical and Noah Formula are experimenting with the effect of mass and net force upon the acceleration of a lab cart. They determine that a net force of F causes a cart with a mass of M to accelerate at 48 cm/s/s. What is the acceleration value of a cart with a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F?

from newtons second law of motion ,

which states that change in momentum is directly proportional to the force applied.

we can say that

f=m(v-u)/t

a=acceleration

t=time

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

since a=(v-u)/t

f=m*a

force applied is F

m =mass of the object involved

a is the acceleration of the object involved

f=m*48.........................1

in the second case ;a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F

f=ma

a=2F/2M

substituting equation 1

a=2(M*48)/2M

a=. 48 cm/s/s

When blue light shines into a prism what happens?
9966 [12]

Answer:

Blue light has the shortest wavelength amongst all the colours that combine to make white light. This means the blue light diffracts (bends) the most out of all of them. There will be no dispersion of colours because ideally, the blue light must consist of only one frequency.

fgiga [73]

Answer:

the final energy of the system is 35.5 kJ.

Explanation:

Given;

initial energy of the system, E₁ = 10 kJ

heat transferred to the system, q₁  30 kJ

Heat lost to the surrounding, q₂ = 5kJ

heat gained by the system, Q = q₁ - q₂ = 30 kJ - 5kJ = 25 kJ

work done on the system, W = 500 J = 0.5 kJ

Apply first law of thermodynamic,

ΔU = Q + W

where;

ΔU  is change in internal energy

Q is the heat gained by the system

W is work done on the system

ΔU = 25kJ + 0.5 kJ

ΔU = 25.5 kJ

The final energy of the system is calculated as;

E₂ = E₁ + ΔU

E₂ = 10 kJ + 25.5 kJ

E₂ =  35.5 kJ.

Therefore, the final energy of the system is 35.5 kJ.

An object with height h, mass M, and a uniform cross-sectional area A floats upright in a liquid with density ρ.
soldi70 [24.7K]
** Missing information: The vertical distance from surface of liquid to bottom of the object is sought in this question, with the condition that the object is at equilibrium **

Ans: The vertical distance = y = M/(ρA)

Explanation:

Support the vertical distance = y

Object's density = M/(A*h) (since A*h = volume)

By applying the condition, 

(M/(Ah))/ρ = y/h

M/(ρAh) = y/h

y = M/(ρA)

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Net charge contained in the cubeq= 3.536×10^-6C

Explanation:

Formular for total flux in a cube is given as:

Total flux= E300Acos(180) + E200Acos(0)

Where A is crossectional area

Total flux= A(E200-E300)

Total flux= q/Eo

q= Eo×total flux

q=(8.84×10^-12)×(100)^2×(100-60)

q= 3.536×10^-6C
