Which would be used to measure the distance between the earth and a planet ,meter ruler or a measuring tape? Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

parallax

Due to foreshortening, nearby objects show a larger parallax than farther objects when observed from different positions, so parallax can be used to determine distances. To measure large distances, such as the distance of a planet or a star from Earth, astronomers use the principle of parallax.

Answer:

D. crystalline solid that conducts current under certain conditions

Explanation:

Semiconductors are crystalline solids that has the ability to conduct electrical currents but on certain conditions e.g heat. The conduction of semiconductors is less than that of conductors (metals) but more than insulators (nonmetals), hence, they are said to be intermediates of conductors and insulators in terms of electrical conductivity.

Examples of semiconductors are silicon, boron, carbon, germanium, arsenic etc.

A television weighs 8.50 pounds. How many grams is this? (Hint: You need to

use two unit conversion fractions. 1 pound equals about 0.454 kg.)

A. 3860 g

B. 18.7 g

C. 18,700 g

D. 3.86 g

SUBWT

Answers

C. 18,700g

Explanation:

8.50+1

then -0.454

The  television weighs 8.50 pounds which is equal to 3860 grams. Hence, option (A) is correct.

What is mass?

In physics, mass is a numerical representation of inertia, a fundamental characteristic of all matter. It essentially refers to a body of matter's resistance to changing its speed or location in response to the application of a force.

The change caused by an applied force is smaller the more mass a body has. The kilograms serves as the unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI).

Given that: A television weighs 8.50 pounds.

And 1 pound equals about 0.454 kg.

Hence, the television weighs =  8.50 pounds × (0.454 kg/1 pound).

= 3.859 kg.

Hence,  the television weighs = 3.859 kg × (1000 g/1kg).

= 3859 grams

= 3860 grams ( approx.)

Hence, the  television weighs 3860 grams.

Una partícula efectúa un MAS cuya ecuación es: x=0,3 cos (2t + /6) m. Determinar: Amplitud, frecuencia angular, fase inicial, periodo, frecuencia de oscilación y posición en t=0,25 s

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Una partícula efectúa un MAS cuya ecuación es: x=0.3cos (2t + π/6) m. Determinar: Amplitud, frecuencia angular, fase inicial, periodo, frecuencia de oscilación y posición en t=0.25 s

Solution:

La ecuación de la onda es:

x = A cos (ω t + Ф), donde:

A = amplitud, ω = frecuencia angular = 2 π / T = 2 π f, Ф = fase inicial, f = frecuencia, T = período

Por lo tanto, comparando la ecuación de la onda con x = 0.3cos (2t + π / 6), obtenemos:

a) A = 0.3

b) ω = 2 rad / s

c) Ф = π / 6 rad

d) ω = 2π / T

2 = 2π / T

T = 3.14 s

e) ω = 2πf

2 = 2πf

f = 0.32 Hz

f) en t = 0.25 s:

x (t) = 0.3cos (2 * 0.25 + π / 6) = 0.22 m

Answer:

Numerical Methods are mathematical way to solve certain problems.Whether the equations are linear or nonlinear, efficient and robust numerical methods are required to solve the system of algebraic equations.

Analytical solutions are exact solutions based on mathematical principles.

However, the governing partial differential equations of fluid flow are complex and cannot be solved by analytical means. The partial differential equations are therefore converted into a system of algebraic equations that are subsequently solved through numerical methods to provide approximate solutions to the governing equations.

Although we rarely reach on exact answer , we can get really close to the exact answer much quicker than solve analytically.

For this circuit, what will be the voltage drop across R1?

A. 21.3 V

B. 14.2 V

C. 45.0 V

D. 9.47 V

Answers

Answer:

Option D. 9.47 V

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of the circuit. This can be obtained as follow:

Resistor 1 (R₁) = 20 Ω

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 30 Ω

Resistor 3 (R₃) = 45 Ω

Equivalent Resistance (R) =?

R = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ (series connections)

R = 20 + 30 + 45

R = 95 Ω

Next, we shall determine the current in the circuit. This can be obtained as follow:

Voltage (V) = 45 V

Equivalent Resistance (R) = 95 Ω

Current (I) =?

V = IR

45 = I × 95

Divide both side by 95

I = 45 / 95

I = 0.4737 A

Finally, we shall determine, the voltage across R₁. This can be obtained as follow:

NOTE: Since the resistors are in series connection, the same current will pass through them.

Current (I) = 0.4737 A

Resistor 1 (R₁) = 20 Ω

Voltage 1 (V₁) =?

V₁ = IR₁

V₁ = 0.4737 × 20

V₁ = 9.47 V

Therefore, the voltage across R₁ is 9.47 V.

weight?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

If the mass hangs at the end of the string and the string can support the mass and doesn't break, and the mass hangs still, that means that the tension in the string is equal to the downward pull of the mass. However, we are given the tension in Newtons and the mass needs to be in kg. So we use the equation for weight:

w = mg where w, the weight, is the same as the tension in the string. Gravity is always 9.8 in the metric system:

the mass of an object is 45 kg and it has a density of 5 gram per centimetre cube what is the volume ​

Answers

Density = Mass/Volume

=> 5g/cm³ = 45kg/Volume

=> 0.005kg/cm³ = 45kg/Volume

=> Volume = (cm³×45kg)/0.005kg

=> Volume = 9000kg/cm³

5 grams fits into 45 kg 9,000 times.

Since each 5 grams occupies 1 cm³, 9,000 little packages of 5 grams must occupy 9,000 cm³ .  (That's 9 liters.)

Answers

Answer:

The force from the truck on the car is always equal to the force from the car on the truck.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law; action and reaction are equal and opposite. Hence, when the big truck and small passenger car are involved in a collision, we expect that the force from the truck on the car is always equal to the force from the car on the truck. The forces on the car and the truck are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.

This follows directly from Newton's third law of motion hence the answer above.

The distance a cart moves down a track (from rest) is proportional to the time squared. How far would a cart move down a track (from rest) in two seconds if it moves (from rest) a distance of 20 cm in one second?

A) 5 cm B) 10 cm C) 20 cm D) 40 cm E) 80 cm

Answers

A car move down a track a distance of 80 cm

Letter E  80 cm

Proportional

if the distance is proportional to the time square we can express such condition writing

d = k*t²        (1)

where d is the distance t is the time and k is the constant of proportionality.

Now we must considerer that if the cart moves a distance of 20 cm in one second then by substitution in equation (1)

20 = k * (t)²        ⇒     20 = k*1   then   k = 20

The proportionality constant is K = 20

To determine how far the cart move down in 2 seconds, again by substitution in equation (1) ( but now knowing k )

d = 20*(2)²

d = 20*4

d = 80 cm

A train 90m long stops in a train station with its front buffers in line with a lamp post on the platform. Later it starts off with an average acceleration of 0.45m/s. What will be its speed in kilometers per hour when the tail buffers pass the lamp post P?​

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the train when the tail buffers pass the lamp post is 9 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The length of the train = 90 m

The initial velocity of the train, u = 0

The average acceleration of the train, a = 0.45 m/s²

When the tail buffer pass the lamp post, P, we have;

The distance travelled, s = The length of the train = 90 m

The kinematic equation of motion is given as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

Where;

v = The speed of the train when the tail buffers pass the lamp post

∴ v² = 0² + 2 × 0.45 m/s² × 90 m = 81 m²/s²

Therefore;

v = √(81 m²/s²) = 9 m/s

The speed of the train when the tail buffers pass the lamp post, v = 9 m/s.
