When an object radiates heat, the strength of this radiation far from the object decreases when distance from the source increas

es as shown in the graph below:
That is, radiated heat is much stronger near its source.

The universe is full of heat that was radiated by a source that no longer exists. This heat is known as cosmic background radiation. Cosmic background radiation is not stronger in any one direction or part of the universe than in others.

The following image is a map of the cosmic background radiation. Red areas are only 0.0002 K hotter than the blue areas. The overall temperature of the radiation is 2.725 K.

What does the uniformity of this radiation imply about its source?
A.
The source of cosmic background radiation existed for a very long time.
B.
The source of cosmic background radiation existed for a very short time.
C.
The source of cosmic background radiation moved randomly.
D.
The source of cosmic background radiation filled the entire universe.

Objects in space are moving at a constant velocity in a straight line.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by a net positive or negative force.

For answer A. If the object were to be in an orbit, it would inevitably accelerate due to it being acted on by the gravitational force from the object it is orbiting. At different points in the orbit, the object will move at different speeds and continuously transfer between kinetic and potential energy.

For answer B. The object would would not stop their motion. In order for the object to lose energy, it would have to transfer it through friction or through its interaction with a gravitational field.

For answer D. No energy is "required" to maintain constant motion unless the object is willingly fighting against a resistive force like friction or a graviational well.

Consider a system to be two train cars traveling toward each other. What is the total momentum of the system before the train ca
Brut [27]

Let say the two train cars are of masses m_1 and m_2

now if the speed of two cars are v_1 and v_2

then we can say that the momentum of two cars before they collide is given by

P = m_1v_1 - m_2v_2

here two cars are moving in opposite direction so we can say that the net momentum is subtraction of two cars momentum.

Now since in these two car motion there is no external force on them while they collide

So the momentum of two cars are always conserved.

hence we can say that the final momentum of two cars will be same after collision as it is before collision

P = m_1v_1 - m_2v_2

A 38.5kg man is in an elevator accelerating downward. A normal force of 343n pushes up on him. what is his acceleration?
alexira [117]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.91 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{343}{38.5}  =  \frac{98}{11}  \\  = 8.909090...

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.91 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

A cat dozes on a stationary merry-go-round, at a radius of 5.7 m from the center of the ride. Then the operator turns on the rid
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

0.76

Explanation:

we are given:

radius (r) =5.7 m

speed (s) = 1 revolution in 5.5 seconds

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

coefficient of friction (Uk) = ?

 we can get the minimum coefficient of friction from the equation below

centrifugal force = frictional force

m x r x ω^{2} = Uk x m x g

r x ω^{2} = Uk x g

Uk = \frac{ r x ω^{2} }{g}

where ω (angular velocity) = \frac{2π}{time}

= \frac{2π }{5.5} = 1.14

Uk = \frac{ 5.7 x 1.14^{2} }{9.8} = 0.76

What is the difference between a solar cell and a solar panel
dexar [7]

Solar cells and solar panels are both integral, and closely related, parts of a solar energy system. When reading about solar energy systems, it may seem as if these titles are almost interchangeable. Writers refer to them both when discussing energy production and output, and often do so without explanation of how these parts work. However, each plays a distinct role. Solar cells contain all the parts necessary to convert sunlight to electricity. Solar panels combine and direct all of that energy output.
