A constant speed motion is one in which equal distances are covered in equal times

The bird travels a cumulative distance of 7.\overline 3 km

The reason the above value is correct is as follows:

The known parameters are;

Speed of the runner, v_r = 2.1 km/hr

The location where the bird begins to fly to the finish line = When the runner is 4.4 km from the finish line

The speed of the bird, v_b = 10.5 km/hr = 5 times the runners speed

The bird reaches the finish line, turns, and returns back to the runner

Required:

The find cumulative distance traveled by the bird

Solution:

The distance the bird travels is five times the distance the runner travels, therefore,

Let <em>x</em> represent the distance the runner ravels before the bird returns, we have;

The distance the bird travels = 4.4 + 4.4 - x = 8.8 - x

The distance the runner travels = x

The time the runner runs <em>x</em> km = The time the bird flies (8.8 - 4) km

From \ velocity = \dfrac{Distance }{Time}, we have;

Time= \dfrac{Distance }{Velocity}

Given the time taken by the runner is equal to the time taken by bird, while running, we have;

Time= \dfrac{x}{2.1} = \dfrac{8.8 - x}{10.5}

Therefore;

10.5·x = 2.1·(8.8 - x) = 2.1×8.8 - 2.1·x

10.5·x + 2.1·x =  2.1×8.8 = 18.84

12.6·x = 18.84

x = \dfrac{18.84}{12.6} =\dfrac{22}{15} = 1.4 \overline 6

The \ distance \  the \  bird \ travels = 8.8 - \dfrac{22}{15} \approx \dfrac{22}{3} = 7. \overline 3

<u>The cumulative distance the bird travels is 7.</u>\overline 3<u> km</u>

If the new moon happens on January 15th, what shape will it be on February 6th?
Jobisdone [24]

-- From January 15 to February 6 is a period of 22 days.

-- The period of the full cycle of moon phases is 29.53 days.

-- So those dates represent (22/29.53) = 74.5% of a full cycle of phases.

-- That's almost exactly 3/4 of a full cycle, so on February 6, the moon would be almost exactly at <em>Third Quarter</em>.  That's the <em>left half of a disk </em>(viewed from the northern hemisphere).

Bryan Allen pedaled a human-powered aircraft across the English Channel from the cliffs of Dover to Cap Gris-Nez on June 12, 197
Leno4ka [110]

(a) 3.58 km 45° south of east

The total displacement is given by:

d=vt

where

v is the average velocity

t is the time

The average velocity is:

v = 3.53 m/s

While we need to convert the time from minutes to seconds:

t=169 min \cdot 60 s/min = 10140 s

Therefore, the magnitude of the displacement is

d=(3.53)(10140)=35794 m = 3.58 km

And the direction is the same as the velocity, therefore 45° south of east.

(b) 5.53 m/s 90° south of east

The velocity of the air relative to the ground is

v_a = 2.00 m/s

and the direction is exactly opposite to that of Allen, so it is 45° north of west. Allen's velocity relative to the ground is

v = 3.53 m/s

So this must be the resultant of Allen's velocity relative to the air (v') and the air's speed (v_a). Since these two vectors are in opposite direction, we have

v= v'-v_a

Therefore we find v', Allen's velocity relative to the air:

v'=v+v_a = 3.53 + 2.00 = 5.53 m/s

The direction must be measured relative to the air's reference frame. In this reference frame, Allen is moving exactly backward, so his direction will be 90° south of east.

(c) 56.1 km at 90° south of east.

Since Allen's velocity relative to the air is

v' = 5.53 m/s

Then the displacement of Allen relative to the air will be given by

d'=v't

and substituting,

d'=(5.53)(10140)=56074 m = 56.1 km

And the direction is the same as that of the velocity, therefore will be 90° south of east.

Astronomers can now report that active star formation was going on at a time when the universe was only 20% as old as it is toda
disa [49]

Answer:

First, as you may know, the light travels at a given velocity.

In vaccum, this velocity is c = 3x10^8 m/s.

And we know that:

distance = velocity*time

Now, if some object (like a star ) is really far away, the light that comes from that star may take years to reach the Earth.

This means that the images that the astronomers see today, actually happened years and years ago (So the night sky is like a picture of the "past" of the universe)

Also, for example, if an astronomer sees some particular thing, he can apply a model (a "simplification" of some phenomena that is used to simplify it an explain it) and with the model, the scientist can infer the information of the given thing some time before it was seen.
