Answer:

The answers are C. The charge-coupled device contains a silicon chip that releases electroms by the photoelectric effect, producing an image.

D. Visible light needs to reflect off an object and be captured by a

charge-coupled device.

A rocket has landed on Planet X, which has half the radius of Earth. An astronaut onboard the rocket weighs twice as much on Pla

Burka [1]

Explanation:

Let acceleration due to Gravity for a planet is given by:

$g_X=GM/R^2$

Here, $g_X = 2g$

Escape velocity is given by:

$v =\sqrt{ \frac{2GM} {R}} = \sqrt{2aR}$

Here, $R=R_earth/2$

and g_X = 2g

Therefore, $v=\sqrt(2(2g)(R/2))=v_0$

If a wave has amplitude of 2 meters, a wavelength of 2 meters, and a frequency of 10 Hz, and a period of 1 second, then at what

Serhud [2]

Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by:

$v=\lambda f$

where

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

f is the frequency

v is the speed

For the wave in this problem,

f = 10 Hz is the frequency

$\lambda=2 m$ is the wavelength

So the speed is

$v=(10 Hz)(2 m)=20 m/s$

Why do the planets appear in different locations in the night sky while the pattern of stars in a constellation stays the same?

Goshia [24]

I'm sure you've noticed that an airplane high in the sky, far away
from you, looks like it's moving very slowly. At the same time,
somebody passing you on a skateboard whizzes past you at
high speed. The farther away something is from you, the slower
it appears to move.

The nearest star outside the solar system is almost 32 thousand times
as far away from us as the farthest visible planet (Saturn) is, and all of the
other stars are farther than that.

That's why you have to wait a few thousand years before you notice
that the shape of a constellation has changed.

To put it a slightly different way . . . Everything is in motion. The motion is
more noticeable for nearby things, and less noticeable for farther-away things.
Objects within our solar system are the only ones near enough so that a human
lifetime is a long enough period in which to notice the change in their position.
Even Pluto moves less then 1.5° against the 'background' stars in a whole year.

This all makes me feel small. How about you ?

Which statement correctly differentiates between transmitters and receivers?

jeka94

Answer:

Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

Explanation:

Let us look at each of the choices one by one:

(1).Transmitters have antennas, and receivers do not have antennas.

Nope. To send signals transmitters need antennas, and to receive signals the receivers need antennas as well.

(2). Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

This is true. Transmitters are for transmitting and receivers are for receiving EM signals.

(3). Transmitters have demodulators, and receivers have modulators.

No, it is the other way around. Transmitters have modulators, and receivers have demodulators.

(4). Transmitters do not have amplifiers, and receivers have amplifiers.

Nope. Both the transmitters and the receivers need amplifiers. Transmitters need them to increase the power of the broadcast, and receivers need them to amplify the signal for processing.

Therefore, only the 2nd statement "Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves." is correct.
