A weather balloon is launched into the atmosphere by meteorologists. When the balloon reaches an altitude where it is neutrally buoyant, it transmits information about weather conditions to monitoring stations on the ground. Is this a Lagrangian or an Eulerian measurement? Explain

Suppose that one of these black holes has a mass of 1x10^3 suns and a radius equal to one-half the radius of our moon. What is the density of the black hole in g/cm^3? The radius of our sun is 7.0x10^5 km, and it has an average density of 1.4x10^3 kg/m^3. The diameter of the moon is 2.16x10^3 miles.arrow_forwardPlease don't provide handwrittin solution...arrow_forward
- The Planck time is the unique interval of time that can be built out of G, c, and h. Some physicists think that time intervals shorter than the Planck time have no meaning. Using G = 6.7 x 10-11 kg-1 m3 s-2, c = 3 x 108 m s-1, and h = 6.6 x 10-34 kg m2 s-1, calculate the Planck time, in units of 10-43 s.arrow_forward% Difference between largest and smallest velocities = 1A-B1 AAB)X100%= .0293-.4137 x 100%= C0293+o4137arrow_forwardA star has an element in its atmosphere that normally emits a line of frequency fs = 7.5 x 10^14 vib/s. If astronomers measure the frequency of this line to be fo = 7.7 x 10^14 vib/s, then how fast are the Earth and this star traveling relative to each other? Remember that the correct equation for the speed v is given by v = [(fo^2 - fs^2) / (fo^2 + fs^2)] c Remember fo^2 means "fo squared."arrow_forward
