The work done on the wagon is 3549 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force when moving an object is given by

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where :

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

In this problem we have the following data:

F = 87 N is the magnitude of the force

d = 44 m is the displacement of the wagon

$\theta=22^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

Substituting, we find the work done

$W=(87)(44)(cos 22^{\circ})=3549 J$

Rasek [7]

Answer:

99.95%

Explanation:

A double pulsar system named PSR J0737-3039A/B in Puppis constellation was discovered in the year 2003. Pulsars are second most densest object in the universe after black holes and they emit radio waves at regular intervals. This pair presented a great and natural setup to test the Theory of General Relativity presented by Einstein in 1915. In this theory Einstein had presented a set of equations on how the space-time fabric will be curved because of the very dense objects such as Neutron stars. It also predicted how the gravitational waves are created because of stars orbiting each other.

A team of astrophysicists led by Michael Kramer, conducted a study on how these gravitational waves will impact the time in which the radio waves emitted by pulsars will reach Earth. The result of the study proved the theory of General Relativity to be accurate up to 99.95%.

Suppose that sunlight is incident upon both a pair of reading glasses and a pair of sunglasses. Which pair would you expect to b

Ainat [17]

Answer: the pair of sunglasses

Explanation:

A good pair of sunglasses are composed of abosorbent lenses that filter the sunlight that affects the eyes retina, especially ultraviolet (UV). So, these sunglasses are used to reduce the amount of light or radiant energy transmitted.

On the other hand, normal reading glasses (in which the lens glass has not been treated to filter ultraviolet sunlight) will let UV rays pass through.

Therefore, if both glasses are exposed to sunlight, the sunglasses are expected to be warmer by absorbing that radiant energy and preventing it from reaching the eyes.

You are exploring a distant planet. When your spaceship is in a circular orbit at a distance of 630 km above the planet's surfac

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The horizontal range of the projectile = 26.63 meters

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Distance above the planet's surface = 630 km = 630000

The ship's orbal speed = 4900 m/s

Radius of the planet = 4.48 *10^6 m

Initial speed of the projectile = 13.6 m/s

Angle = 30.8 °

Step 2: Calculate g

g= GM /R² = (v²*(R+h)) /(R²)

⇒ with v= the ship's orbal speed = 4900 m/S

⇒ with R = the radius of the planet = 4.48 *10^6 m

⇒ with h = the distance above the planet's surface = 630000 meter

g = (4900² * ( 4.48*10^6+ 630000)) / ((4.48*10^6)²)

g = 6.11 m/s²

<u>Step 3:</u> Describe the position of the projectile

Horizontal component: x(t) = v0*t *cos∅

Vertical component: y(t) = v0*t *sin∅ -1/2 gt² ( will be reduced to 0 in time )

⇒ with ∅ = 30.8 °

⇒ with v0 = 13.6 m/s

⇒ with t= v(sin∅)/g = 1.14 s

Horizontal range d = v0²/g *2sin∅cos∅ = v0²/g * sin2∅

Horizontal range d =(13.6²)/6.11 * sin(2*30.8)

Horizontal range d =26.63 m

The horizontal range of the projectile = 26.63 meters

An astronomer observes that the wavelength of light from a distant star is shifted toward the red part of the visible spectrum.

balandron [24]

Answer:

The distance between the earth and the star is increasing.

Explanation:

When we observe an object and its electromagnetic radiation has been displaced to blue, it means that it is getting closer to us, causing the light waves it emits to get closer together and its wavelength to decrease towards blue, this is knowm as blueshift.

On the contrary, when an object is rapidly moving away from us, the light waves or electromagnetic radiation it emits have been stretched from their normal wavelength to a longer wavelength, towards the red part of the spectrum. This is known as redshift.

This phenomenon of changes in wavelength and frequency due to movement (whether the source approaches or moves away) is described by the Doppler effect.

So for this case because the light we perceive from the star has moved to the red part of the visible spectrum, we can conclude that it is moving away from the earth, and that the distance between the star and the earth is increasing.
