Answer:

8 possible microstates.

Explanation:

Supposed we tossed three (3) coins (a nickel, a dime, and a quarter).

The possible outcomes can be seen as follows.

Coin

1st. +1 +1 +1 -1 +1 -1 -1 -1

2nd +1 +1 -1 +1 -1 +1 -1 -1

3rd +1 -1 +1 +1 -1 -1 +1 -1

There 8 (eight) microstates are possible.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

\frac{1}{24}

Explanation:

Given:

For a school event, 1/6 of the athletic field is reserved for the fifth -grade classes and the reserved part of the field is divided equally among the 4 fifth grade classes in the school.

To find: fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for each fifth class

Solution:

Fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for four fifth classes = \frac{1}{6}

So, fraction of the whole athletic field reserved for each fifth class = \frac{1}{4}(\frac{1}{6})=\frac{1}{24}

If you find that the hydrogen alpha line in a star’s spectrum occurs at a wavelength of 656.45 nm, what is the star’s approximat
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The star’s approximate radial velocity is 68.52 km/s

Explanation:

To solve the

The formula is

\frac{\lambda-\lambda_{rw}}{\lambda_{rw}} = \frac{v_r}{c} where

v_r = velocity of the star

λ = Star's spectrum wavelength = 656.45 nm

\lambda_{rw} = Rest wavelength = 656.30 nm

c = Speed of light = 299 792 458 m / s

Therefore we have

\frac{656.45-656.30}{656.30} =\frac{v_r}{299 792 458} or v_r = 68518.7699 m/s or 68.52 km/s
