We observe a glowing cloud of gas in space with a spectroscope. We note that many of the familiar lines of hydrogen that we know on Earth seem to be in a different place. They are shifted toward the blue or violet end of the spectrum compared to their positions in the spectrum of glowing hydrogen gas on Earth. From this we can conclude that: Group of answer choices the cloud is moving away from us the cloud is much hotter than hydrogen on Earth the cloud is moving toward us No information can be concluded from this observation alone the cloud is much cooler than hydrogen on Earth

Suppose that an electromagnetic wave which is linearly polarized along the x−axis is propagating in vacuum along the z−axis. the wave is incident on a conductor which is placed at z > 0 region of the space. the conductor has conductivity σ, magnetic permeability µ and electric permittivity ε. (a) find the characteristic time for the free charge density which dissipates at the conductor. (b) write the maxwell equations and derive the wave equation for a plane wave propagating in a conductor. (c) find the attenuation distance at which the incident amplitude reduces to e ^−1 of its initial value. (d) find the electric and magnetic fields inside the conductor. 8 (e) find the power loss per area of the incident electromagnetic wave at the surface of conductor.

Two point charges are separated by a certain distance. how does the strength of the electric field produced by the first charge, at the position of the second charge, change if the second charge is doubled? a. the field does not change b. the field strength decreases by half. c. the field strength doubles d. the field strength quadruples

Which magnetic property best describes a magnet’s ability to act at a distance? magnets are dipolar. magnets attract only certain objects. magnets have magnetic fields. magnets can transfer their properties to certain materials.
