The hydrogen atoms in a star are also moving at high velocity because of the random motions caused by their high temperature. as a result, each atom is doppler shifted a little bit differently, leading to a finite width of each spectral line, such as the 656.46-nm line we were just discussing. for a star like our sun, this leads to a finite width of the spectral lines of roughly δλ=0.04nm. if our instruments can only resolve to this accuracy, what is the lowest speed v, greater than 0, that we can measure a star to be moving?

The energy released by a chemical reaction can be measured using a calorimeter. when barium hydroxide octahydrate crystals are reacted with dry ammonium chloride inside of a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the 18.00 g of water in the calorimeter decreases from 30.0°c to 8.0°c. the equation for calculating energy absorbed or released by a reaction is: where q is the energy released or absorbed, m is the mass of water in the calorimeter, cp is the specific heat of water, and δt is the observed temperature change. if the specific heat of liquid water is 4.19 j/g·°c, how much energy was absorbed by the reaction?

Calculate the amount of heat produced when 18000 coulombs of charge is transferred in one hour through a potential difference of 50v

Ajet plane has a sound level of 120 db at a distance of 60 m. what is the q23. sound level at a distance of 6.0 km? (60)2 (6000)? om solution 80db db, hint: 16x assume ultrasound waves travel through the body of an animal at 1540 q24. m/s. if a 30,000 hz signal were reflected off a portion of a heart which was moving toward the source at 3 m/s, what frequency signal would return to the stationary source? solution 30.117hz
