If for every action force an equal and opposite reaction force exists, how can anything ever be accelerated?

If there are two equal and opposite forces on the SAME THING, then the thing doesn't accelerate. You're right about that. But the action and reaction forces act on two different things. The bullet and the rifle. The ball and the bat. The airplane and the air. etc. So BOTH can accelerate.

A projector is placed on the ground 22 ft. away from a projector screen. A 5.2 ft. tall person is walking toward the screen at a
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

y = 67.6 feet,   y = 114.4/ (22 - 3t)

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use that light travels in a straight line and some trigonometric relationships, the symbols are in the attached diagram

Large triangle Projector up to the screen

         tan θ = y / L

For the small triangle. Projector up to the person

         tan θ = y₀ / (L-d)

The angle is the same, so we equate the two equations

         y₀ / (L -d) = y / L

         y = y₀  L / (L-d)

The distance from the screen (d), we look for it with kinematics

         v = d / t

        d = v t

we replace

         y = y₀ L / (L - v t)

         y = 5.2 22 / (22 - 3 t)

         y = 114.4 (22 - 3t)⁻¹

This is the equation of the shadow height change as a function of time

For the suggested distance the shadow has a height of

           y = 114.4 / (22-13)

           y = 67.6 feet

Astronauts use a centrifuge to simulate the acceleration of a rocket launch. The centrifuge takes 40.0 s to speed up from rest t
Vinvika [58]

Answer

Time period T = 1.50 s

time t = 40 s

r = 6.2 m

a)

Angular speed ω = 2π/T

                              = \dfrac{2\pi }{1.5}  

                              = 4.189 rad/s

Angular acceleration α = \dfrac{\omega}{t}

                                      = \dfrac{4.189}{40}

                                      = 0.105 rad/s²

Tangential acceleration a = r α = 6.2 x 0.105 = 0.651 m/s²

b)The maximum speed.

       v = 2πr/T

          = \dfrac{2\pi \times 6.2}{1.5}

          = 25.97 m/s

So centripetal acceleration.

        a = \dfrac{v^2}{r}

          = \dfrac{25.97^2}{6.2}

          =  108.781 m/s^2

          = 11.1 g    

in combination with the gravitation acceleration.

a_{total} = \sqrt{(11.1g)^2+g^2}

a_{total}= 11.145 g

Assortative mating changes ______ frequencies but does not change ______ frequencies.
andrew-mc [135]

Allele frequencies are unaffected by assortative mating, but genotype frequencies .

<h3>Assortative mating: </h3>

Individuals with similar phenotypes and genotypes mate with others more frequently than is anticipated under a random mating pattern in assortative mating, which is a mating pattern and a type of sexual selection.

<h3>Frequencies of genotypes:</h3>

A population's genotype frequency is calculated by dividing the number of people having a particular genotype by the overall population size. The genotype frequency in population genetics is the frequency or ratio (i.e., 0 f 1) among genotypes inside a population.

<h3>The frequency for alleles in biology:</h3>

The term "allele frequency" describes the prevalence of an allele in a population. It is calculated by calculating the number of times the allele occurs in the population and dividing by the sum of all the gene copies.
