A charming friend of yours who has been reading a little bit about astronomy accompanies you to the campus observatory and asks

to see the kind of star that our Sun will ultimately become, long, long after it has turned into a white dwarf. Why is the astronomer on duty going to have a bit of a problem satisfying her request? a. All the old stars in our Galaxy are located in globular clusters and all of these are too far away to be seen with the kind of telescope a college or university campus would have. b. After being a white dwarf, the Sun will explode, and there will be nothing left to see. c. The universe is not even old enough to have produced any white dwarfs yet d. Astronomers only let people with PhD's look at these stellar corpses; it's like an initiation rite for those who become astronomers. e. After a white dwarf cools off it becomes too cold and dark to emit visible light

A plastic box has an initial volume of 2.00 m 3 . It is then submerged below the surface of a liquid and its volume decreases to
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Volume strain is 0.02

Explanation:

Volume strain is defined as the change in volume to the original volume.

It is given that,

Initial volume of the plastic box is 2 m³

It is then submerged below the surface of a liquid and its volume decreases to 1.96 m³

We need to find the volume strain on the box. It is defined as the change in volume divided by the original volume. So,

\delta V=\dfrac{V_f-V_i}{V_i}\\\\\delta V=\dfrac{1.96-2}{2}\\\\\delta V=0.02

So, the volume strain on the box is 0.02.

Suppose you want to make a scale model of a hydrogen atom. You choose, for the nucleus, a small ball bearing with a radius of 1.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

A)  x _electron = 0.66 10² m , B)   x _Eart = 1.13 10² m , C)  d_sphere = 1.37 10⁻² mm

Explanation:

A) Let's use a ball for the nucleus, the electron is at a farther distance the sphere for the electron must be at a distance of

Let's use proportions rule

                x_ electron = 0.529 10⁻¹⁰ /1.2 10⁻¹⁵ 1.5

               x _electron = 0.66 10⁵ mm = 0.66 10² m

B) the radii of the Earth and the sun are

               R_{E} = 6.37 10⁶ m

                tex]R_{Sum}[/tex] = 6.96 10⁸ m

                Distance = 1.5 10¹¹ m

                x_Earth = 1.5 10¹¹ / 6.96 10⁸  1.5

                x _Eart = 1.13 10² m

C) The radius of a sphere that represents the earth, if the sphere that represents the sun is 1.5 mm, let's use another rule of proportions

            d_sphere = 1.5 / 6.96 10⁸  6.37 10⁶

            d_sphere = 1.37 10⁻² mm

Cell phone conversations are transmitted by high-frequency radio waves. Suppose the signal has wavelength 36.5 cm while travelin
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula  v=fλ

Where v= velocity of radio waves

f= frequency

λ= wavelength of wave

  • radio waves are electromagnetic waves and as such they have the speed of light which is 3*10^{8}m/s.
  • also when a wave travels from one medium to another, the wavelength changes while the frequency remains the same.
  • calculating for the frequency of the wave in air also gives us the frequency in the window glass.

f=\frac{v}{λ}

v=3*10^{8}m/s.

λ=36.5 cm = 36.5/100= 0.365m

f=\frac{3*10^{8}m/s.}{0.365m}

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

The density of nuclear matter is about 1018 kg/m3. Given that 1 mL is equal in volume to 1 cm3, what is the density of nuclear m
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

density is 10^{6} Mg/µL

Explanation:

given data

density of nuclear = 10^{18} kg/m³

1 ml = 1 cm³

to find out

density of nuclear matter in Mg/µL

solution

we know here

1 Mg = 1000 kg

so

1 m³ is equal to 10^{6} cm³

and here 1 cm³ is equal to  1 mL

so we can say 1 mL is equal to 10³ µL

so by these we can convert density

density = 10^{18} kg/m³

density = 10^{18} kg/m³ × \frac{10^{-3} }{10^{6} }  Mg/µL

density =  10^{6} Mg/µL
