An astronomy class is so excited by the discovery of planets around other stars that they decide to do a library exhibit on the

subject so that everyone in the school can learn about it. In this exhibit they want to pay tribute to both the astronomers of today who have done the work AND some of the scientists of the past whose work was essential to making the discoveries possible (and directly related to the techniques involved). Which of the following scientists of the past should definitely be included in the exhibit?
George Herbig  Ejnar Hertzsprung  Ptolemy 
Gerard Kuiper  Christian Doppler

Answer:

Christian Doppler

Explanation:

The Scientist with the most significant contribution to the discovery of planets around other stars is Christian Doppler and his work that made this discovery possible is the Principle of  DOPPLER EFFECT

<em>Christian Doppler was an Austrian scientist and physicist whose principle Doppler effect explained how observed frequency of light and sound waves are affected by a relative motion of both the source and detector </em>

A 0.450 kg soccer ball has a kinetic energy of 119 J.
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

V is approximately = 23m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = ½ mv²

Where m= mass = 0.450kg

V= velocity =?

K. E = 119J

Therefore

K. E = ½ mv²

Input values given

119= ½ × 0.450 × v²

Multiply both sides by 2

119 ×2  = 2 × 1/2 × 0.450 × v²

238= 0.450v²

Divide both sides by 0.450

238/0.450 = 0.450v²/0.450

v² = 528.89

Square root both sides

Sq rt v² = sq rt 528.89

V = 22.998m/s

V is approximately = 23m/s

After watching a show about submarines, Jamil wants to learn more about the oceans. Which question could be answered through sci
Georgia [21]
The best question that could prompt a scientific investigation is: <u>What substances dissolve in ocean water?</u> 

This way the person experimenting can use several variables and make observations. Upon making observations, the person can be able to gather as much data as he can in order to answer the original question that he asked.

A steel ball of mass 0.500 kg is fastened to a cord that is 70.0 cm long and fixed at the far end. The ball is then released whe
Liula [17]

Answer:

a) v₁fin = 3.7059 m/s   (→)

b) v₂fin = 1.0588 m/s     (→)

Explanation:

a) Given

m₁ = 0.5 Kg

L = 70 cm = 0.7 m

v₁in = 0 m/s   ⇒  Kin = 0 J

v₁fin = ?

h<em>in </em>= L = 0.7 m

h<em>fin </em>= 0 m   ⇒    U<em>fin</em> = 0 J

The speed of the ball before the collision can be obtained as follows

Einitial = Efinal

⇒ Kin + Uin = Kfin + Ufin

⇒ 0 + m*g*h<em>in</em> = 0.5*m*v₁fin² + 0

⇒ v₁fin = √(2*g*h<em>in</em>) = √(2*(9.81 m/s²)*(0.70 m))

⇒ v₁fin = 3.7059 m/s   (→)

b)  Given

m₁ = 0.5 Kg

m₂ = 3.0 Kg

v₁ = 3.7059 m/s    (→)

v₂ = 0 m/s

v₂fin = ?

The speed of the block just after the collision can be obtained using the equation

v₂fin = 2*m₁*v₁ / (m₁ + m₂)

⇒  v₂fin = (2*0.5 Kg*3.7059 m/s) / (0.5 Kg + 3.0 Kg)

⇒  v₂fin = 1.0588 m/s     (→)
