Answer:

Explanation:

Mercury, the first planet from the Sun, endures drastic temperature changes from day to night. During the day, the planet is incredibly near to the Sun, with temperatures reaching 430°C.

compare and contrast the medical understanding of death (that you have read about and learned about in this chapter) and the pop

mixer [17]

The medical understanding of death is related to the scientific approach, and the popular understanding is related to the inclusive spiritual and cultural approaches.

<h3 /><h3>What is death for science?</h3>

Death occurs when an individual's cardiorespiratory and brain functions cease due to some factor, thus ending his life.

Popular understanding, on the other hand, is aligned with scientific knowledge, but it is also encompassing cultural and religious teachings, which define topics not proven by science, such as life after death for example.

Therefore, death is a delicate topic for society, and spirituality is the basis found for greater emotional comfort in individuals who suffer significant losses of loved ones.

on aircraft carriers, catapults are used to accelerate jet air craft to flight speeds in a short distance. One such catapult tak

sineoko [7]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

The jet's change in speed = (70 m/s) - (zero) = 70 m/s

So acceleration = (70 m/s) / (2.5 s)

Acceleration = (70 / 2.5) m/s²

<em>Acceleration = 28 m/s²</em>

That's about 2.9 G's . Jet pilots can endure a lot more than that, but maybe the catapult or the hook on the airplane can't. Let's look a little closer:

F = m A (Newton #2)

The force on the airplane = (18,000 kg) x (28 m/s²)

Force on the airplane = 504,000 Newtons

That's about 113,000 pounds ! Maybe the part of the airplane that the catapult pushes on can't handle any more force than that. Or maybe that's the most force the catapult can deliver.

Also, the REACTION force on the catapult is the same 113,000 pounds. Maybe the hooks or the chains or the struts on the catapult can't handle any more force than that.

That's almost 57 tons for gosh sakes ! Maybe the DECK of the carrier can't handle more force than that, and that's why they can't launch the airplane with acceleration of more than 2.9 G's .

A(n) 1400-kg car going at 6.32 m/s in the positive x direction collides with a 2900-kg truck at rest. The collision is totally i

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

a) Acceleration of the car is given as

$a_{car} = -21 m/s^2$

b) Acceleration of the truck is given as

$a_{truck} = 10.15 m/s^2$

Explanation:

As we know that there is no external force in the direction of motion of truck and car

So here we can say that the momentum of the system before and after collision must be conserved

So here we will have

$m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = (m_1 + m_2)v$

now we have

$1400 (6.32) + 2900(0) = (1400 + 2900) v$

$v = 2.06 m/s$

a) For acceleration of car we know that it is rate of change in velocity of car

so we have

$a_{car} = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}$

$a_{car} = \frac{2.06 - 6.32}{0.203}$

$a_{car} = -21 m/s^2$

b) For acceleration of truck we will find the rate of change in velocity of the truck

so we have

$a_{truck} = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}$

$a_{truck} = \frac{2.06 - 0}{0.203}$

$a_{truck} = 10.15 m/s^2$

A star is moving away from an observer. Toward which end of the spectrum does its visible light shift?.

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Redshift, or lower power

Explanation:

doppler effect

waves get stretched when you are moving away from something, and squished when you are moving towards it. Imagine you have a long, bent wire. if you stretch out the wire, the wavelength becomes longer. This also applies to sound.
