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 
Physics

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>

Which statement accurately represents the arrangement of electrons in Bohr’s atomic model?
noname [10]

Answer: Electrons move around the nucleus in fixed orbits of equal levels of energy

Explanation:

The statement that accurately represents the arrangement of electrons in Bohr’s atomic model is that the electrons move around the nucleus in fixed orbits of equal levels of energy.

It should be noted that the electrons have a fixed energy level when they travel around the nucleus in with energies which varies for different levels.

Higher energy levels are depicted by the orbits that are far from the nucleus. There's emission of light when the electrons then return back to a lower energy level.

At what distance along the central perpendicular axis of a uniformly charged plastic disk of radius 0.390 m is the magnitude of
aliina [53]
<span>Radius, the distance from the centre = 0.390
 Electric field is equal to half of the magnitude. E2 = E / 2
 Given
E1 = E2 E1 = k x Q / r^2
  E2 = (k x Q / r2^2) / 2
  Equating the both we get 2 x r^2 = r2^2
 r2 = square root of (2 x r1^2) = square root of (2) x r = 1.414 x 0.390
  r2 = 1.414 x 0.390 = 0.551 m</span>

Polly is pushing a box across the floor with a force of 30 N. The force of gravity is -8 N, and the normal force is 8 N. Which
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Force of friction is (-30 N).

Explanation:

The force applied on the  box across the floor is 30 N.

The force of gravity is (-8 N) and the the normal force is 8 N.

It is based on Newton's third law of motion. Newton's third law of motion states that the force acting on object 1 to object 2 is equal in magnitude of the force from object 2 to 1 but in opposite direction.

Here there is force of 30 N is applied in horizontal direction. The frictional force act in opposite direction. So, the force of friction is -30 N so that box across the floor.
