Why do astronomers use spectroscopes to analyze light from distant objects?

Physics

Spectroscopy — the use of light from a distant object to work out the object is made of — could be the single-most powerful tool astronomers use, says Professor Fred Watson from the Australian Astronomical Observatory. ... "It lets you see the chemicals being absorbed or emitted by the light source.

Answer:

1.The force required to stop the shopping cart is, F = 12.25 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the shopping cart, m = 7 kg

The initial velocity of the shopping cart, u = 3.5 m/s

The final velocity of the shopping cart, v = 0 m/s

The time period of acceleration, t = 2 s

The change in momentum of the cart,

                                      p = m(u - v)

                                         = 7 (3.5 - 0)

                                         = 24.5 kg m/s

The force is defined as the rate of change of momentum. To stop the shopping cart, the force required is given by the formula

                                           F = p / t

                                               = 24.5 / 2

                                               = 12.25 N

Hence, the force required to stop the shopping cart is, F = 12.25 N

2.

We have: F = m × v/t

Here, m = 8500 Kg

v = 20 m/s

t = 10 s

Substitute their values into the expression,  

F = 8500 × 20/10

F = 8500 × 2

F = 17000 N

In short, final answer would be 17000 N

Hope this helps!!

A tiger leaps with a horizontal speed of 4.5 m/s from a boulder and lands 15 meters away.What is the vertical velocity with whic
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

v_oy = 16.33 m/s

Explanation:

To find the vertical velocity of the tiger, you use the information about the horizontal velocity and maximum horizontal distance traveled.

You use the following formula for the range of the trajectory:

x_{max}=\frac{2v_{ox}v_{oy}}{g}     ( 1 )

v_ox: horizontal initial velocity = 4.5m/s

v_oy: vertical initial velocity = ?

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

x_max: range of the trajectory = 15 m

You do v_oy the subject of the formula ( 1 ) and you replace the values of the other parameters in order to calculate v_oy:

v_{oy}=\frac{gx_{max}}{2v_{ox}}=\frac{(9.8m/s^2)(15m)}{2(4.5m/s)}\\\\v_{oy}=16.33\frac{m}{s}

hence, the initial vertical velocity of the tiger is 16.33m/s
