Answer:

If you throw a pebble into a pond, ripples

spread out from where it went in. These

ripples are waves travelling through the

water. The waves move with a transverse

motion.

A tug boat pulls a ship with a constant net horizontal force of 5.00•10*3 N and causes the ship to move through a harbor. How mu
Murljashka [212]

The work done on the ship is 1.5\cdot 10^7 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

In this problem, we have:

F=5.00\cdot 10^3 N (force acting on the ship)

d = 3.00 km = 3000 m (displacement of the ship)

\theta=0^{\circ} (because the force is horizontal, and the displacement is horizontal as well)

Therefore, the work done on the ship is

W=(5.00\cdot 10^3)(3000)(cos 0^{\circ})=1.5\cdot 10^7 J

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

Student c's belief is fulfilled only for the movement of the earth with respect to the sun. But it has no validity or does not exist when it is necessary to explain other physical phenomena with respect to other satellites. For example, how would you explain the phases of the moon, if the Earth is located in the center of the Galaxy?, another serious question regarding the observations made by scientists millions of years ago, where they observed that the distances of the Earth from other planets were changing, with respect to time. If the Earth was in the center, all the planets and the sun would revolve around it preserving a constant distance (radius), at all times.

Other phenomena to explain would be the seasons on Earth, these are due to the axis of inclination of the Earth and the rotation of it around the sun.

On a straight road, a car speeds up at a constant rate from rest to 20 m/s over a 5 second interval and a truck slows at a const
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

a)

Explanation:

  • Since the car speeds up at a constant rate, we can use the kinematic equation for distance (assuming that the initial position is x=0, and choosing t₀ =0), as follows:

        x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}   (1)

  • Since the car starts from rest, v₀ =0.
  • We know the value of t = 5 sec., but we need to find the value of a.
  • Applying the definition of acceleration, as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time, and remembering that v₀ = 0 and t₀ =0, we can solve for a, as follows:

       a_{c} =\frac{v_{fc}}{t} = \frac{20m/s}{5s} = 4 m/s2  (2)

  • Replacing a and t in (1):

       x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}  = \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} = \frac{1}{2}* 4 m/s2*(5s)^{2} = 50.0 m.  (3)

  • Now, if the truck slows down at a constant rate also, we can use (1) again, noting that v₀ is not equal to zero anymore.
  • Since we have the values of vf (it's zero because the truck stops), v₀, and t, we can find the new value of a, as follows:

       a_{t} =\frac{-v_{to}}{t} = \frac{-20m/s}{10s} = -2 m/s2  (4)

  • Replacing v₀, at and t in (1), we have:

       x_{ft} = 20m/s*10.0s + \frac{1}{2}*(-2 m/s2)*(10.0s)^{2} = 200m -100m = 100.0m   (5)

  • Therefore, as the truck travels twice as far as the car, the right answer is a).
