Answer:

A and C

Explanation:

drag (the area of lower air pressure behind the car when moving) and mostly air resistance (the work to push the air in front of us away to move through - the faster we go, the stronger the air resists to move aside).

How far does the moon move away from earth every year?

Oxana [17]

The moon is moving away from Earth at a rate of approximately 3.78 cm per year.
This migration of the Moon from the Earth is mainly due to the action of the Earth tides. It can be explained as follows:
- the Moon exerts a gravitational force on the Earth, which is stronger at the Equator (since the Equator is closer to the Moon), creating the tides
- However, the Earth rotates faster on its axis (one rotation every 24 hours) than the Moon (one rotation every 27 days), therefore the tidal bulge on Earth tries to pull the Moon "ahead" in its orbit. As a result, the Moon tends to sped up.
<span>- As opposite reaction, the Earth tends to slow down in its rotation, with a loss of angular momentum. Since the angular momentum must be conserved, the radius of the orbit of the Moon becomes larger, and this explains why the Moon is moving away from the Earth.</span>

Would the springs inside a bathroom scale be more compressed or less compressed if you weighed yourself in an elevator that was

Ber [7]

More compressed. moving up = apparent weight (i.e., your norma force) is greater. this means you’ll weighr more and push those springs down even more than you would at rest.

A 900-kg car traveling east at 15.0 m/s collides with a 750-kg car traveling west at 20.0 m/s. The cars stick together. What is

andriy [413]

Answer:

17.27m/s

Explanation:

M1U1 + M2U2 = (M1+M2)V

(900x15) + (750 x 20) = (900+750)V

13500+15000 = (1650)V

28500 = 1650v

V = 28500/1650 = 17.27m/s

V = 17.27m/s

A typical rechargeable deep-cycle battery for an electric trolling motor (fishing boat) delivers 10A of current at a voltage of

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

a) 360 kQ

b) 4.32 MJ

c) 1200 W-h

Explanation:

a) The definition of the current is.

$I= \frac{Q}{t}$

having a count that 10 hours = 36.000 s

$Q = I*t$

$Q = 36000*10 = 360.000 [Q]$

b) The definition of the Energy in power terms is.

$E = \int\limits^{t}_{0} {P} \, dt$

and the definition of power is:

$P = V*I = 12 * 10 = 120 [W]$

replacing in the energy formula.

$E = \int\limits^{36.000}_{0} {120} \, dt$

solving the integral, have into account that t is in seconds.

$E=P*t=120*36000=4.320.000=4.32 [MJ]$

c) The energy in W-h, we can find it multiplying power by hours

$E = P*t =120*10 = 1200 W-h$ .

Which type of modulation is applied to radio-controlled toys?

Alenkinab [10]

Pulse type of modulation is applied to radio-controlled toys, therefore the correct answer is option D.

<h3>What is the frequency?</h3>

It can be defined as the number of cycles completed per second. It is represented in hertz and inversely proportional to the wavelength.

Toys controlled by remote control operate by emitting infrared radiation. These infrared rays have a frequency of 34–48 kilo Hertz.

Different types of modulations, such as frequency and amplitude modulation for transmitting and receiving video and music, are employed for other reasons.

Thus, the Pulse-type of modulation is applied to radio-controlled toys, therefore the correct answer is option D.
