Answer:

B is right at first I thought I was wrong

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force. This tendency to resist changes in a state of motion is inertia.

What is one disadvantage of a series circuit?
nlexa [21]

If one bulb goes out then all the others won't light up because electricity will be cut off. It's a disadvantage because in a parallel circuit if one bulb burns out all the others will still be on because they won't be affected. I hope I've helped you ☺

Outside our solar system the closest star to earth is Proxima century life from the start takes 2200000 minutes to reach earth.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

2200000 = 2.2E6 min for light from Proxima to reach earth

8.3 min from light sun to reach earth

2.2E6/8.3 = 2.56E5   times for light from Proxima

Proxima is about 256,000 times farther away than the sun

Since the sun is about 93,000,000 = 9.3E7 miles from earth

Proxima is then 9.3E7 * 2.56E5 = 2.4E13 miles away

Note - the speed of light is

3.00E8 m/s * 60 s/min / 1000 m/km = 1.8E7 km/min as given

Cheetahs can accelerate to a speed of 19.6 m/s in 2.45 s and can continue to accelerate to reach a top speed of 27.6 m/s . Assum
marta [7]

Answer:

  • v_{top} = 61.96 \frac{mi}{h}

Explanation:

To express the cheetah's top speed in miles per hour, we just need to find the conversion factor.

We know that the top speed is

v_{top} = 27.7 \frac{m}{s}

So, we want to obtain miles from meters and hours from seconds.

<h3>miles from meters</h3>

First we write the equivalence:

1609.34 \ m = 1 \ mi

Now, we can divide by 1609.34 meters on both sides:

\frac{1609.34 \ m}{ 1609.34 \ m} = \frac{1 \ mi}{ 1609.34 \ m}

The left sides equals 1, so

1 = \frac{1 \ mi}{ 1609.34 \ m}

And this is our conversion factor from meters to miles. Now, we can multiply our top speed by this conversion factor, as the conversion factor equals one, and is dimensionless, the physical meaning will be the same.

v_{top} = 27.7 \frac{m}{s} * \frac{1 \ mi}{ 1609.34 \ m}

v_{top} = 27.7 \frac{m}{s} * \frac{1 \ mi}{ 1609.34 \ m}

v_{top} = 0.0172120 \frac{mi}{s}

This is the top speed in miles per second, now, for obtaining miles per hour:

<h3>hours from seconds</h3>

We can do pretty much the same, first, the equivalence:

1 \ h = 3600 \ s

as the seconds are dividing in the velocity, we know divide by 1 hour.

\frac{1 \ h}{ 1 \ h} = \frac{3600 \ s}{ 1 \ h}

1 = \frac{3600 \ s}{ 1 \ h}

and know we just multiply our top speed by this conversion factor

v_{top} = 0.0172120 \frac{mi}{s}  \frac{3600 \ s}{ 1 \ h}

v_{top} = 61.96 \frac{mi}{h}

(a) Consider the initial-value problem dA/dt = kA, A(0) = A0 as the model for the decay of a radioactive substance. Show that, i
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

a) t = -\frac{ln(2)}{k}

b) See the proof below

A(t) = A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}

c) t = 3T \frac{ln(2)}{ln(2)}= 3T

Explanation:

Part a

For this case we have the following differential equation:

\frac{dA}{dt}= kA

With the initial condition A(0) = A_o

We can rewrite the differential equation like this:

\frac{dA}{A} =k dt

And if we integrate both sides we got:

ln |A|= kt + c_1

Where c_1 is a constant. If we apply exponential for both sides we got:

A = e^{kt} e^c = C e^{kt}

Using the initial condition A(0) = A_o we got:

A_o = C

So then our solution for the differential equation is given by:

A(t) = A_o e^{kt}

For the half life we know that we need to find the value of t for where we have A(t) = \frac{1}{2} A_o if we use this condition we have:

\frac{1}{2} A_o = A_o e^{kt}

\frac{1}{2} = e^{kt}

Applying natural log we have this:

ln (\frac{1}{2}) = kt

And then the value of t would be:

t = \frac{ln (1/2)}{k}

And using the fact that ln(1/2) = -ln(2) we have this:

t = -\frac{ln(2)}{k}

Part b

For this case we need to show that the solution on part a can be written as:

A(t) = A_o 2^{-t/T}

For this case we have the following model:

A(t) = A_o e^{kt}

If we replace the value of k obtained from part a we got:

k = -\frac{ln(2)}{T}

A(t) = A_o e^{-\frac{ln(2)}{T} t}

And we can rewrite this expression like this:

A(t) = A_o e^{ln(2) (-\frac{t}{T})}

And we can cancel the exponential with the natural log and we have this:

A(t) = A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}

Part c

For this case we want to find the value of t when we have remaining \frac{A_o}{8}

So we can use the following equation:

\frac{A_o}{8}= A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}

Simplifying we got:

\frac{1}{8} = 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}

We can apply natural log on both sides and we got:

ln(\frac{1}{8}) = -\frac{t}{T} ln(2)

And if we solve for t we got:

t = T \frac{ln(8)}{ln(2)}

We can rewrite this expression like this:

t = T \frac{ln(2^3)}{ln(2)}

Using properties of natural logs we got:

t = 3T \frac{ln(2)}{ln(2)}= 3T
