If you fly a spaceship to Vega at 0.999c, you will measure the distance to be much less than 25 light years.

Most space objects use light-years to represent their distance. Light-years are the distance that light travels during the year on Earth. Light-years are about 6 trillion miles (9 trillion km). This is a 6 followed by 12 zeros.

At the same speed, a movement equivalent to one light-year takes about 11.3 billion days. Life expectancy for Americans is currently estimated at 78.74 years, which is equivalent to 28,740 days. Therefore, to get there, you need to live about 400,000 times as long as the average American.

A rocket initially at rest accelerates at a rate of 99.0 meters/second2. Calculate the distance covered by the rocket if it atta
Jobisdone [24]

Answer: The correct answer is option b.

Explanation: We are given that the rocket is at rest initially final velocity is 445m/s.

The acceleration of the rocket is 99.0m/s^2

To calculate the distance of rocket, we use third equation of motion, which is:

v^2-u^2=2as

where, v = final velocity = 445m/s

u = initial velocity = 0m/s

a = acceleration = 99m/s^2

s = distance = ? m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

(445)^2-(0)^2=2(99)s\\\\s=1\times 10^3meters

Seismometers Choose one: A. measure vertical (up-and-down) ground motion but cannot measure horizontal (back-and-forth) motion.
solniwko [45]

Answer: C) Can "feel" (or record) large earthquakes that happen on the opposite side of the world

Explanation:

If a seismogram has recorded P-waves and surface waves, but not S-waves, the seismograph may have been on the other side of the planet from the earthquake. Therefore seismometers can feel large earthquakes from the other side of the world

Two carts on an air track have the same mass and speed and are traveling toward each other. If they collide and stick together,
lora16 [44]

Answer:

p = 0, K_{A} = m\cdot v^{2} (before collision), K_{B} = 0 (after collision).

Explanation:

The total momentum is obtained using the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

m\cdot v_{A} - m \cdot v_{A} = 2\cdot v_{B}

It is trivial to find that final speed and total momentum of the system are zero:

p = 0

The total kinetic energy of the system becomes zero due to the inellastic collision and the same masses and speeds. Total kinetic energies before and after collision are, respectively:

K_{A} = m\cdot v^{2}

K_{B} = 0

Can peer pressure affect a person social health
notka56 [123]
Yes. Here is my explaination: Peer pressure is a complicated area. On one hand, it can help your child develop the coping skills necessary for adulthood. It can also, however, lead them in bad directions. While teens may feel they have “grown up,” their brains are not finished developing and one of the immature functions is judgment. Peer pressure might encourage teens to become more active in athletics or to avoid risky behaviors. Or it could lead them to try alcohol or drugs, skip school or engage in other negative behaviors.
