The spectral lines of two stars in a particular eclipsing binary system shift back and forth with a period of 6 months. The lines of both stars shift by equal amounts, and the amount of the Doppler shift indicates that each star has an orbital speed of 64,000 m/s. What are the masses of the two stars

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the masses of the two stars are; m₁ = m₂ = 4.92 × 10³⁰ kg

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Time period = 6 months = 1.577 × 10⁷ s

orbital speed v = 64000 m/s

since its a circular orbit,

v = 2πr / T

we solve for r

r = vT/ 2π

r = ( 64000 × 1.577 × 10⁷ ) / 2π

r = 1.6063 × 10¹¹ m = ( (1.6063 × 10¹¹) / (1.496 × 10¹¹) )AU = 1.0737 AU

Now, from Kepler's law

T² = r³ / ( m₁ + m₂ )

T = 6 months = 0.5 years

we substitute

(0.5)² = (1.0737)³ / ( m₁ + m₂ )

0.25 = 1.2378 / ( m₁ + m₂ )

( m₁ + m₂ ) = 1.2378 / 0.25

( m₁ + m₂ ) = 4.9512

m₁ = m₂  = 4.9512 / 2 = 2.4756 solar mass

we know that solar mass = 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg

so

m₁ = m₂ = 2.4756 × 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg

m₁ = m₂ = 4.92 × 10³⁰ kg

Therefore, the masses of the two stars are; m₁ = m₂ = 4.92 × 10³⁰ kg

When the lightbulbs were used as the resistors, you observed only a flash of light, as opposed to a continuous glow. Explain why that behavior is expected. After all, the light bulb is directly connected to the power supply.

Answers

Solution :

Whenever the lightbulbs are used as resistors, we throw the switch to the left. This allows the current to flow through the circuit which causes the bulb to glow and also the capacitor gets charged. When the capacitor gets fully charged, the electric field becomes constant between its two plates. Now there is no displacement current induced in the plates of the capacitor. The capacitor works as an open switch and the bulb gets switched off.

And thus the bulb flashes for the moment as opposed to continuous glow.

Two identical loudspeakers 2.30 m apart are emitting sound waves into a room where the speed of sound is 340 m/s. Abby is standing 4.50 m in front of one of the speakers, perpendicular to the line joining the speakers, and hears a maximum in the intensity of the sound.

Required:
What is the lowest possible frequency of sound for which this is possible?

Answers

Answer:

Abby is standing (4.5^2 + 2.3^2)^1/2   from the far speaker

D2 = 5.05 m from the far speaker

The difference in distances from the speakers is

5.05 - 4.5 = .55 m     (Let y be wavelength, lambda)

n y = 4.5

(n + 1) y = 5.05 for the speakers to be in phase at smallest wavelength

y = .55 m          subtracting equations

f = v / y = 340 / .55 = 618 / sec     should be the smallest frequency

Answers

Answer:

Increase the rate and the same maximum energy of the electrons

Explanation:

According to the photoelectric effect we can say:

The number of electrons, or the electric current, has a linear behaviour with the intensity of the light and a constant behaviour whit the frequency. Therefore, the rate of electrons increases.

The kinetic energy of the ejected electrons has a linear dependence on the frequency of the light and has a constant behaviour with the intensity. So, we can say there is the same maximum energy.

Why is oiling done time and again in a sewing machine?

Answers

Answer:

to prevent friction on the surfaces

Answer:

Explanation:

Oiling reduces friction between parts with relative motion between them.

Repeated oiling is needed as the film of oil reducing the friction becomes thinner with time as some of the oil gets pushed off of the areas of motion where it can no longer be useful.

Oil also becomes oxidized which reduces the oil's ability to decrease friction.

Oil can also be fouled by dirt, lint or other material. This added material becomes coated in oil and typically gets sequestered away from the moving parts reducing the oil available for lubrication purposes.

Two loudspeakers placed 6.00 m apart are driven in phase by an audio oscillator having a frequency range from 1908 Hz to 2471 Hz. A point P is located 4.70 m from one loudspeaker and 3.60 m from the other speaker. At what frequency of the oscillator does the sound reaching point P interfere constructively

Answers

Answer:

2164 Hz

Explanation:

Since point P is 4.70 m away from one speaker and 3.60 m away from the other speaker, the path length difference ΔL = 4.70 m - 3.60 m = 1.1 m.

The path length difference ΔL = nλ for a constructive interference where n is an integer and λ = wavelength of sound from oscillator = v/f where v = speed of sound in air = 340 m/s and f = frequency of sound from oscillator.

So, ΔL = nλ = nv/f

So, the frequency from the oscillator is f = nv/ΔL

Substituting the values of v and ΔL into the equation, we have

f = nv/ΔL

f = n340 m/s/1.1 m

f = n309.09 /s

f = 309.09n Hz

We now insert values of n that will gives us a frequency in the range 1908 Hz to 2471 Hz.

The value of n that will give us a frequency in the range is n = 7

So, when n = 7,

f = 309.09n Hz

f = 309.091 × 7 Hz

f = 2163.64 Hz

f ≅ 2164 Hz

So, the frequency of the oscillator that will produce a constructive interference at P is 2164 Hz.

What is the conservation of energy?

The conservation of energy is a fundamental principle in physics that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but only converted from one form to another or transferred from one system to another. In other words, the total amount of energy in a closed system remains constant over time, even though it may be converted from one form to another.

This principle is based on the first law of thermodynamics, which states that the total energy of a closed system is always conserved, and can only be changed by the transfer of heat, work, or matter into or out of the system. The conservation of energy has important applications in various fields of physics, including mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism, and is a fundamental principle in the understanding of the natural world.

Here in the Question,

We can use the conservation of energy to solve this problem. Initially, the ball has kinetic energy due to its motion on the tabletop, but no potential energy since it is at a constant height. When the ball rolls off the edge of the table, it loses some kinetic energy due to friction but gains potential energy as it moves upward. When it reaches the floor, it has gained potential energy but lost kinetic energy due to friction. We can assume that the energy lost due to friction is converted to thermal energy, so the total energy of the system is conserved.

Let's start by calculating the potential energy gained by the ball as it moves from the edge of the table to the floor:

ΔPE = mgh

where ΔPE is the change in potential energy, m is the mass of the ball, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the vertical distance traveled by the ball.

ΔPE = (0.50 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(1.0 m) = 4.905 J

Now we can use the conservation of energy to find the final kinetic energy of the ball, which will allow us to calculate its final speed:

KEi + ΔPEi = KEf + ΔPEf

where KEi and ΔPEi are the initial kinetic and potential energies of the ball, respectively, and KEf and ΔPEf are the final kinetic and potential energies of the ball, respectively.

Since the ball is not bouncing, we can assume that its initial and final potential energies are zero. Therefore:

KEi = KEf + ΔKE

where ΔKE is the change in kinetic energy due to friction.

We can assume that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the ball and the incline is constant, and use the work-energy principle to find ΔKE:

Wfric = ΔKE

where Wfric is the work done by friction.

The work done by friction can be expressed as:

Wfric = ffricd

where ffric is the force of friction and d is the distance traveled by the ball on the incline.

The force of friction can be expressed as:

ffric = μmg

where μ is the coefficient of kinetic friction, and m and g have their usual meanings.

Putting it all together, we get:

KEi = KEf + ffricd

KEi = KEf + μmgd

(1/2)mv^2 = (1/2)mu^2 + μmgd

v^2 = u^2 + 2gd

where u is the initial speed of the ball on the tabletop, and v is the final speed of the ball on the floor.

Plugging in the given values, we get:

v^2 = (5.0 m/s)^2 + 2(9.81 m/s^2)(1.0 m)

v^2 = 50.405

v = 7.10 m/s

Therefore, the final speed of the ball when it reaches the floor is 7.10 m/s.

Answers

Answer:

The total length of wire is 0.24 m.

Explanation:

Number of turns, N = 270

magnetic field, B = 0.48 T

frequency, f = 60 Hz

rms value of emf = 120 V

maximum value of emf, Vo = 1.414 x 120 = 169.68 V

let the area of square is A and the side is L.

The maximum emf is given by

Vo = N B A w

169.68 = 270 x 0.48 x A x 2 x 3.14 x 60

A = 3.5 x 10^-3 m^2

So,

L = 0.0589 m

Total length of wire, P = 4 L = 4 x 0.0589 = 0.24 m
