The apparent brightness of stars in general tells us nothing about their distances; we cannot assume that the dimmer stars are f

arther away. In order for the apparent brightness of a star to be a good indicator of its distance, all the stars would have to be:__________.
a. at the same distance
b. the same composition
c. the same luminosity
d. by themselves instead of in binary or double-star systems
e. a lot farther away than they presently are

The labeled images each represent the wave patterns found in the electromagnetic wave spectrum. which of these images are correc
Phantasy [73]
Energy E of EM radiation is given by the equation E=hf, where h is Planck's constant and f is frequency. It means energy E and frequency f are proportional so as we increase the frequency, energy also increases. Also, the relationship between the wavelength and frequency is c=λ*f where λ is the wavelength and f is frequency and c is the speed of light. This tells us the wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional. So as we increase the frequency the wavelength is getting smaller. So as we go from left to right the frequency increases, energy also increases and the wavelength is decreasing. Or, on the left side we should have low frequency, low radiant energy, and long wavelength. On the right side we should have high frequency, high radiant energy and low wavelength. That is the third graph.

Two objects have a force of gravity of 100 N. If the distance between both objects decreases by a factor of 7, while the masses
Shkiper50 [21]

The gravitational force <em>F</em> between two masses <em>M</em> and <em>m</em> a distance <em>r</em> apart is

<em>F</em> = <em>G M m</em> / <em>r</em> ²

Decrease the distance by a factor of 7 by replacing <em>r</em> with <em>r</em> / 7, and decrease both masses by a factor of 8 by replacing <em>M</em> and <em>m</em> with <em>M</em> / 8 and <em>m</em> / 8, respectively. Then the new force <em>F*</em> is

<em>F*</em> = <em>G </em>(<em>M</em> / 8) (<em>m</em> / 8) / (<em>r</em> / 7)²

<em>F*</em> = (1/64 × <em>G M m</em>) / (1/49 × <em>r</em> ²)

<em>F*</em> = 49/64 × <em>G M m</em> / <em>r</em> ²

In other words, the new force is scaled down by a factor of 49/64 ≈ 0.7656, so the new force has magnitude approx. 76.56 N.

If half of the weight of a flatbed truck is supported by its two drive wheels, what is the maximum acceleration it can achieve o
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Maximum acceleration will be equal to 3.43m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _k=0.7

And coefficient of static friction \mu _s=1

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

When truck moves maximum force will be equal to F=\mu _kmg

It is given that half of the weight is supported by its drive wheels

So force required =\frac{\mu _kmg}{2}

From newtons law maximum acceleration will be equal to a=\frac{\frac{\mu _kmg}{2}}{m}=\frac{\mu _kg}{2}=\frac{0.7\times 9.8}{2}=3.43m/sec^2

When a wire moves through a magnetic field, an electric current is produced in the wire. Why does this phenomenon occur?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

<h2>It occurs whenever a magnetic field and an electric conductor move relative to one another so the conductor crosses lines of force in the magnetic field. </h2>

Explanation:

<h3>The current produced by electromagnetic induction is greater when the magnet or coil moves faster, the coil has more turns, or the magnet is stronger.</h3>
