What is the surface temperature of Sirius B in Kelvins?

Physics
2 answers:
Sauron [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: The surface temperature of Sirius B is 25,200 Kelvins(K).

Explanation: You would think Sirius would have a surface temperature of 9,940 Fahrenheit. That is somewhat correct, but Sirius is a binary star consisting of a main-sequence star of spectral type A0 or A1, termed Sirius A, and a faint white dwarf companion of spectral type DA2, termed Sirius B. Sirius, Sirius A, and Sirius B, are all different stars. Sirius A has a temperature of 9,940 Kelvins, but Sirius B has a temperature of 25,200 Kelvins(K).

Let's say you have two tuning forks which are supposed to produce the same frequency, 512 Hz. One is of good quality, but the ot
solong [7]

Answer:

= 2 beats per seconds

Explanation:

  • From |f -f'| = modulus of the difference between the frequency given.
  • f = 510Hz and f' = 512Hz
  • Difference between the frequency will give us the number of beat per seconds.
  • i.e 2 beats per seconds

These also shows how to get the period of the tuning forks.

A 62.00-cm guitar string under a tension of 70.000 N has a mass per unit length of 0.10000 g/cm. What is the highest resonant fr
quester [9]

Answer:

17,947.02 Hz

Explanation:

length (L) = 62 cm = 0.62 m

tension (T) = 70 N

mass per unit length (μ) = 0.10000 g/cm = 0.010000 kg/m

maximum frequency = 18,000 Hz

f = \frac{n}{2L} x \sqrt{\frac{T}{μ}}

f = \frac{n}{2 x 0.62} x \sqrt{\frac{70}{0.01} }

f = n x 67.47

18,000 = n x 67.47

n = 266.8≈ 266

the 267th overtone is the highest overtone that can be heard by this person, and its frequency would be 26 x 67.47 = 17,947.02 Hz

A ball thrown horizontally at 12.6 m/s from the roof of a building lands 20.0 m from the base of the building
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

1.59 seconds

12.3 meters

but if you are wise you will read the entire answer.

Explanation:

This is a good question -- if not a bit unusual. You should try and understand the details. It will come in handy.

Time

<u>Given</u>

a = 0 This is the critical point. There is no horizontal acceleration.

d = 20 m

v = 12.6 m/s

<u>Formula</u>

d = vi * t + 1/2at^2

<u>Solution</u>

Since the acceleration is 0, the formula reduces to

d = vi * t

20 = 12.6 * t

t = 20 / 12.6

t = 1.59 seconds.

It takes 1.59 seconds to hit the ground

Height of the building

<u>Givens</u>

t = 1.59 sec

vi = 0     Another critical point. The beginning speed vertically is 0

a = 9.8 m/s^2   The acceleration is vertical.

<u>Formula</u>

d = vi*t + 1/2 a t^2

<u>Solution</u>

d = 1/2 a*t^2

d = 1/2 * 9.8 * 1.59^2

d = 12.3 meters.

The two vi's are not to be confused. The horizontal vi is a number other other 0 (in this case 12.6 m/s horizontally)

The other vi is a vertical speed. It is 0.

Explain why dogs pant during hot summer days using the evaporation concept?
damaskus [11]
All, or almost all, warm-blooded creatures get rid of excess heat by evaporating moisture from their bodies. It's a great system, because evaporation takes a lot of heat. That's the reason people perspire when we're active and build up a lot of heat inside. The evaporation of sweat from our skin carries away heat with it. Dogs do not sweat on their skin. The only place they can evaporate moisture is through their mouth. Panting speeds up the evaporation by blowing air across the moisture.
