Answer:
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) has accepted 88 constellations in the sky.
Explanation:
Constellations has been used since the beginnings of civilizations and each one of them named them as they considered appropiate. It means Greeks' constellations were different than the ones described by Chinese, so it was necessary to gather all these constellations and make a great record with all of them, but there was a problem: Some constellations from different civilizations overlaped because they shared the same stars. There was necessary to put some order on this and that is when in 1922 the International Astronomical Union (IAU) defned a set of 88 moderm constellations that would become the international standard to look at the night sky. Each one of them is unique and does not share stars with the other constellations.
Answer:
Gravity acts to pull the object down.
The object’s inertia carries it forward.
The path of the object is curved.
Explanation:
The motion of a projectile consists of two separate motions:
- A uniform motion along the horizontal direction, where the velocity is constant; since there are no forces along this direction, the velocity does not change, and so the object continues its motion for inertia --> so, the statement "The object’s inertia carries it forward" is true.
- A uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical direction, with a constant downward acceleration (g=9.8 m/s^2, acceleration due to gravity). So, the vertical velocity changes, due to the presence of the gravity that acts to pull the object down.
- As a result of the combination of these two motions, the object follows a curved path (in particular, it is a parabolic path).
Answer:
229,098.96 J
Explanation:
mass of water (m) = 456 g = 0.456 kg
initial temperature (T) = 25 degrees
final temperature (t) = - 10 degrees
specific heat of ice = 2090 J/kg
latent heat of fusion =33.5 x 10^(4) J/kg
specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg
for the water to be converted to ice it must undergo three stages:
- the water must cool from 25 degrees to 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of water x change in temp
Q = 0.456 x 4186 x (25 - (-10)) = 66808.56 J
- the water must freeze at 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of fusion x change in temp
Q = 0.456 x 33.5 x 10^(4) = 152760 J
- the water must cool further to -10 degrees from 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of ice x change in temp
Q = 0.456 x 2090 x (0 - (-10)) = 9530.4 J
The quantity of heat removed from all three stages would be added to get the total heat removed.
Q total = 66,808.56 + 152,760 + 9,530.4 = 229,098.96 J
Answer:
The direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.
Explanation:
Given;
direction of the magnetic field to be due north
Applying right hand rule which states that: to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a positive moving charge point the thumb of the right hand in the direction of velocity v, the fingers in the direction of magnetic field B, and a perpendicular to the palm points in the direction of magnetic force.
Since the magnetic force must be perpendicular to the magnetic field, and direction of the magnetic field is due north, then the magnetic force must be due East.
Therefore, the direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.
Answer:
The final velocity of the second car is 57 m/s south.
Explanation:
This is an elastic collision between two train cars. In this case, the total kinetic energy between the two bodies will remain the same.
The formula to apply is :

where ;

Given in the question that;

Apply the formula as;

{14650*18}+{3825*11} = {14650 *6} + {3825 * v₂f}
263700+42075=87900 + 3825v₂f
305775 =87900 + 3825v₂f
305775-87900 = 3825v₂f
217875=3825v₂f
217875/3825 =v₂f
56.96 = v₂f
<u>57 m/s = v₂f { nearest whole number}</u>
