Answer: Hand span

Explanation: Hand span is not a standard unit.

Second is the unit of time.

Meter is the unit of length or distance covered by an object.

Gram is the unit of weight of an object.

Hand span is not a standard unit. This is because the size of hand varies from person to person. Hence, the correct option is (c) "hand span".

Alik [6]

Answer:

Speed of physicist car is 0.036c or 1.08 x 10⁷ m/s .

Explanation:

Doppler Effect is defined as the change in frequency or wavelength of the wave as the source or/and observer moving away or towards each other.

In this case, the Doppler effect equation in terms of wavelength is :

$\lambda_{s} = \lambda_{o}\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{v}{c} }{1+\frac{v}{c} } }$ ......(1)

Here $\lambda_{s}$ is source wavelength, $\lambda_{o}$ is observed wavelength, v is speed of the observer and c is the speed of light.

Given :

Source wavelength, $\lambda_{s}$ = 660 nm = 660 x 10⁻⁹ m

Observed wavelength, $\lambda_{0}$ = 555 nm = 555 x 10⁻⁹ m

Substitute these values in the equation (1).

$555\times10^{-9} } = 660\times10^{-9} \sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{v}{c} }{1+\frac{v}{c} } }$

$\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{v}{c} }{1+\frac{v}{c} } } = 0.84$

${\frac{1-\frac{v}{c} }{1+\frac{v}{c} } } = (0.84)^{2} = 0.7056$

$1-\frac{v}{c}=0.7056+0.7056\frac{v}{c}$

$\frac{v}{c}=\frac{0.2944}{8.056}$

$v = 0.036c=0.036\times3\times10^{8}$

v = 1.08 x 10⁷ m/s

The pressure P (in kilopascals), volume V (in liters), and temperature T (in kelvins) of a mole of an ideal gas are related by t

stich3 [128]

Answer:

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = -0.466 m^3/s$

Explanation:

given,

P (in kilo pascals), volume V (in liters), temperature T (in kelvins)

P V = 8.31 T

Rate of increase the temperature = 0.1 K/s

temperature = 285 K

Pressure = 18 kPa

increasing at the rate of 0.07 k Pa/s

Rate at which volume is changing = ?

$V = 8.31 \dfrac{T}{P}$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 8.31 \dfrac{P\dfrac{dT}{dt}-T\dfrac{dP}{dt}}{P^2}$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 8.31 \dfrac{18 \times 0.1-285\times 0.07}{18^2}$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 8.31 \dfrac{-18.15}{324}$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt} = -0.466 m^3/s$
