They will win by approximately .2m
Divide 400/58=6.9m while the other person is 400/60=6.6 thus he will win by about .2m

The spectrum of Star A has an absorption line of hydrogen at 660.0 nm. The spectrum of Star B has an absorption line at 666 nm.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

The stars are moving away from us.

Explanation:

The observed wavelengths of hydrogen transition for stars A and B (660.0 nm and 666 nm respectively) are greater than that observed in the laboratory (656.2 nm). The observed long wavelengths for the stars means that the light from the stars is red-shifted.

According to the Doppler effect, red-shifted light means that the source is moving a way from the observer; therefore, we arrive at the conclusion that the stars A and B are moving away from us.

Derive an algebraic equation for the vertical force that the bench exerts on the book at the lowest point of the circular path i

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The algebraic equation is:

$F_{v} =\frac{m_{b}v_{b}^{2} }{R} -m_{b} g$

Explanation:

Given information:

mb = book's mass

vb = tangential speed

R = radius of the path

Question: Derive an algebraic equation for the vertical force, Fv = ?

To derive the equation, we need to draw a force diagram for this case, please, see the attached diagram. As you can see, there are three types of forces acting on the system. Two up and one of the weight acting down. Therefore, the algebraic equation is as follows:

$F_{v} =\frac{m_{b}v_{b}^{2} }{R} -m_{b} g$

The variables were defined above and g is the gravity.

When a car drives along a "washboard" road, the regular bumps cause the wheels to oscillate on the springs. (What actually oscil

marishachu [46]

Answer:

a) 40,000 N/m

b) f = 6.37 Hz

c) v = 4,8 m/s

Explanation:

part a)

First in order to estimate the spring constant k, we need to know the expression or formula to use in this case:

k = ΔF / Δx

Where:

ΔF: force that the men puts in the car, in this case, the weight.

Δx: the sinking of the car, which is 2 cm or 0.02 m.

With this data, and knowing that there are four mens, replace the data in the above formula:

W = 80 * 10 = 800 N

This is the weight for 1 man, so the 4 men together would be:

W = 800 * 4 = 3200 N

So, replacing this data in the formula:

k = 3200 / 0.02 = 160,000 N/m

This means that one spring will be:

k' = 160,000 / 4 = 40,000 N/m

b) An axle and two wheels has a mass of 50 kg, so we can assume they have a parallel connection to the car. If this is true, then:

k^n = 2k

To get the frequency, we need to know the angular speed of the car with the following expression:

wo = √k^n / M

M: mass of the wheel and axle, which is 50 kg

k = 40,000 N/m

Replacing the data:

wo = √2 * 40,000 / 50 = 40 rad/s

And the frequency:

f = wo/2π

f = 40 / 2π = 6.37 Hz

c) finally for the speed, we have the time and the distance, so:

V = x * t

The only way to hit bumps at this frequency, is covering the gaps of bumping, about 6 times per second so:

x: distance of 80 cm or 0.8 m

V = 0.8 * 6 =

V = 4.8 m/s

What conclusion can be derived by comparing the central tendencies of the two data sets?

zhannawk [14.2K]

The answer is B. I don’t think I need to explain this,
Mean is average, Mode is the most common number, and Median is the middle number when you put the numbers is numerical order from least to greatest
