aleksley [76]3 years ago

Answer:

In contrast, the intrinsic brightness of an astronomical object, does not depend on the distance of the observer or any extinction. The absolute magnitude M, of a star or astronomical object is defined as the apparent magnitude it would have as seen from a distance of 10 parsecs (33 ly).

According to the Doppler Effect, which statement is true about a sound as it approaches you and then moves away.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

A) As the source approaches you, the waves are compressed so that the pitch of the noise increases.  

Explanation:

The Doppler Effect occurs when there is relative motion between an observer and the source of a wave. When this happens, there is an apparent shift in the frequency of the wave, as perceived by the observer. In particular, two situations can occur:

1- If the source of the wave is moving towards the observer, the waves are compressed, so that the wavelength of the wave decreases, and therefore the frequency (and so the pitch) increases

2- If the source of the wave is moving away from the observer, the waves are stretched, so that the wavelength of the wave increases, and therefore the frequency (and so the pitch) decreases

An example of Doppler Effect occurs when we hear the sound of the siren of an ambulance.

In this problem, the situation described is situation 1 (sound waves is approaching the observer), so according to the explanation above, the correct answer is

A) As the source approaches you, the waves are compressed so that the pitch of the noise increases.

When light falls on objects, it interacts with them in different ways as shown in the images. What type of interaction is seen i
ra1l [238]

Total absorption of the light takes place in every image. There is no light left to proceed to our eyes, and that's why we can't see any of the images.

The absorption is so complete in each and every case, we can't even see enough to know how MANY images there are.

The system needs an ordinary friction-based brake to bring the train to a full stop. Explain why the magnetic brake is not very
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The slower the train is moving, the less are the changes of the magnetic flux, thus the eddy currents become weaker.

Explanation:

A magnetic brakes is not a very efficient way of braking when a train is moving slowly because at low speeds, the changes in the magnetic flux are very less and so it causes the eddy current to become weaker.

Let us find the drag force which is proportional to the velocity of two conducting plates.

The EMF that is induced in the eddy currents are : $E=v(B \times L)$

The force which is due to the induced magnetic field is, $F=l(L \times B)$

Therefore, $F=\frac{E}{R} \times (L \times B)$

                 $F=\frac{v(B \times L)}{R} \times (L \times B)$

Here, force is directly proportional to the velocity of the two conducting plates.

Therefore, we can say that when the speed of the train is low, the magnetic flux changes are less and thus the eddy currents are weaker.

5. A stream of air at 12 bar and 900 K is mixed with another stream of air at 2 bar and 400 K with 2 times the mass flowrate. If
Softa [21]

Answer:

The anserrs to the question are

(a)  The temperature would be 566.67  K and

(b) The pressure of the resulting air stream is 14 bar

Explanation:

Here the two streams of gases meet ad form a single stream

The steady-flow energy equation can be implemented at the mixing point of the to streams as follows

mₐhₐ₁ + mₙ hₙ₁ + Q° + W° = mₐhₐ₂ + mₙhₙ₂

Where the flow is adiabatic, we have

Q = 0 and  W = 0  hence

mₐhₐ₁ + mₙ hₙ₁ = mₐhₐ₂ + mₙhₙ₂ where h = cp×T we have

mₐcpₐ×Tₐ + mₙcpₙ×Tₙ  = mₐcpₐ×T + mₐcpₙ×T

Therefore the final temperature T is given by

T = \frac{m_ac_{pa}T_a + m_nc_{pn}T_n}{m_ac_{pa} + m_nc_{pn}}  for the same kind of gas cpₐ =cpₙ therefore

T = \frac{m_aT_a + m_nT_n}{m_a + m_n} where mₐ and mₙ are mass flow rate

Therefore we have where Tₐ = = 900 K and Tₙ = 400 K and mₙ = 2mₐ gives

T = \frac{m_a*900 + 2*m_a*400}{m_a + 2*m_a} = T = \frac{900 + 800}{1 + 2} = 1700/3 = 566.67 K  

From Dalton's law, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the components of the mixture

Therefore the total pressure of the combined stream = pₐ + pₙ = p

= 12 bar + 2 bar = 14 bar

Stream pressure = 14 bar
