Answer:
red shift, indicating that the universe is expanding
Explanation:
Doppler effect occurs when a source of a wave (e.g. light, or sound waves) moves relative to an observer; as a result of this relative motion, the wavelength of the wave appears lengthened/shortened to the observer. Two situations can occur:
- The source of the wave is moving towards the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes shorter. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the blue-end of the spectrum (blue-shift)
- The source of the wave is moving away from the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes longer. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the red-end of the spectrum (red-shift)
In our universe, we observe a red-shift for all the distant galaxies: this means that these galaxies are moving away from us, so this is an indication that the universe is expanding.
Answer:
5500000 millimeters
Explanation:
1 kilometre= 1000 meter
5.5 km=5.5 * 1000
=5500
Now,
1 metre = 1000 millimetres
5500 metre=1000*5500
=5500000 mm
Answer:
Explanation:
The momentum of the first piece = m v =- m x 31 i kg m/s in - x direction direction
The momentum of the second piece = -m x 31 j kg m /s in Y - direction
Total momentum = - 31 m( i + j )
To conserve momentum , the third piece must have momentum equal to this
and opposite to it
So momentum of the third piece = 3m x V = 31 m ( i +j )
V = 31/3 ( i + j ) =
Magnitude of velocity V = √2 x 31/ 3 = 14.6 m / s
Its direction will be towards the vector i + j ie 45° from x - axis in positive direction
It is possible for on object to be going at 100 miles per hour, but still have a velocity. This is because the object going at 100 miles per hour has speed, which is a scalar quantity, which is defined by only magnitude, but the velocity of the object can be 0, since velocity is a vector quantity which is defined by both magnitude and direction.
Since this object only has magnitude and no direction (which is not given), then the velocity can be 0
6.84 x 10^9 m is your answer :)
