You are trying to take an image of a particular star with apparent magnitude m=10, and need to figure out how long you will need
Natalka [10]

You haven't told us anything about the detectors being used.  We don't know how the sensitivity of the detector is related to the total number of photons absorbed, and we don't even know whether you and your friend are both using the same type of detector.

All we can do, in desperation, is ASSUME that the minimum time required to just detect a star is inversely proportional to the total number of its photons that strike the detector.  That is, assume . . .

(double the number of photons) ===> (detect the source in half the time) .

-- The intensity of light delivered to the prime focus of a telescope is directly proportional to the AREA of its objective lens or mirror, which in turn is proportional to the square of its radius or diameter.

So your telescope gathers (0.18/0.05)² = 12.96 times as much light as your friends telescope does.

-- So we'd expect your instrument to detect the same star in

(119.5 min) / (12.96) = <em>9.22 minutes  .</em>

We're simply comparing the performance of two different telescopes as they observe the same object, so the star's magnitude doesn't matter.

A bobsled’s distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 100 m in 25 s. What is the bobsled’s speed?
vfiekz [6]
Speed is defined as distance over time. So, since it traveled 100m in 25 sec, the speed was 100 / 25 = 4 m/s.

Two insulated wires, each 2.64 m long, are taped together to form a two-wire unit that is 2.64 m long. One wire carries a curren
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

4.77\ \text{A}

Explanation:

F = Magnetic force = 4.11 N

I_n = Net current

I_2 = Current in one of the wires = 7.68 A

B = Magnetic field = 0.59 T

\theta = Angle between current and magnetic field = 65^{\circ}

l = Length of wires = 2.64 m

I = Current in the other wire

Magnetic force is given by

F=I_nlB\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow I_n=\dfrac{F}{lB\sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow I_n=\dfrac{4.11}{2.64\times 0.59 \sin65^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow I_n=2.91\ \text{A}

Net current is given by

I_n=I_2-I\\\Rightarrow I=I_2-I_n\\\Rightarrow I=7.68-2.91\\\Rightarrow I=4.77\ \text{A}

The current I is 4.77\ \text{A}.

How do you post a picture
BARSIC [14]
Click the ask a question button or answer button then at the bottom above the keyboard there are two little icons. A camera lens and a Mountain View. If you click the camera lens you can take a picture to post and if you click the Mountain View it will give you the option to post a picture from your photos.

Describe a situation in your everyday life where you could use the scientific method. List all the steps of the scientific metho
emmainna [20.7K]

Yes, scientific method can be applied on many everyday activities to get a reasonable solution. Infact normally we are applying this method without having it in our knowledge that we are applying it.

For example: In morning we are going to office and we start the car, but it is not started.You turn the engine again and again but it simply donot works.

Observation (the state of defining a problem):

The car is not started

Hypothesis (A possible solution based on the information we already know):

The car is not started because it might be out of gas or there can be some other technical fault.  

Experiment (testing of hypothesis by applying different methods of solving problem):

You get the fuel and put it inside the car but it still donot works and car didnot start. Experiment didnot get solution.

Analyze the results of data and test another hypothesis

You call a technician and he check with the car engine tries and finds out that the engine was out of order and needs repairing.

Draw conclusion:

The engine do not works when it is out of order and it is a cause of a car not being started.

<em>Now the theory and law making part can not be applied on this case but it is a part of scientific method.</em>

Hope it helps!
