Explanation The galaxies present in the universe are the group of the star clusters and several other celestial bodies present in the universe. The galaxies contain a large group of planets and asteroids that revolve around the stars in the universe. The different galaxies present in the universe are at the difference distance from one another. As the expansion takes place in the universe, the distance between the galaxies increase and the increasing distance between the galaxies does not imply that the size of the galaxies is also increasing...

Stellar evolution

We may see thousands of stars in the dark sky. Our universe consists of billions of stars. Stars may appear tiny to us but they are huge balls of gasses. Sun is a star of average size. Some stars are even a thousand times larger than the sun. The stars d…

In the pivot assignment, we observed waves moving on a string stretched by hanging weights. We noticed that certain frequencies produced standing waves. One such situation is shown below: 0 ст Direct Measurement ©2015 Peter Bohacek I. 20 0 cm 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Which Harmonic is this? Do NOT include units! What is the wavelength of this wave in cm with only no decimal places? If the speed of this wave is 2500 cm/s, what is the frequency of this harmonic (in Hz, with NO decimal places)?

Four capacitors are connected as shown in the figure below. (Let C = 12.0 µF.) A circuit consists of four capacitors. It begins at point a before the wire splits in two directions. On the upper split, there is a capacitor C followed by a 3.00 µF capacitor. On the lower split, there is a 6.00 µF capacitor. The two splits reconnect and are followed by a 20.0 µF capacitor, which is then followed by point b. (a) Find the equivalent capacitance between points a and b. µF(b) Calculate the charge on each capacitor, taking ΔVab = 16.0 V. 20.0 µF capacitor µC 6.00 µF capacitor µC 3.00 µF capacitor µC capacitor C µC

Two conductors having net charges of +14.0 µC and -14.0 µC have a potential difference of 14.0 V between them. (a) Determine the capacitance of the system. F (b) What is the potential difference between the two conductors if the charges on each are increased to +196.0 µC and -196.0 µC? V
