By using vector

a. the distance traveled is 12 kilometres

b. the resultant displacement is (7 i + 5 j) kilometres

We need to know about vectors to solve this problem. Vector has magnitude and also direction. Displacement is included in vector. It can be written as

s = sx i + sy j + sz k

where s is displacement, sx is displacement on x-axis, sy is displacement on y-axis and sz us displacement on z-axis.

From the question above, we know that

east = positive x

south = negative y

west = negative x

north = positive y

s1 = 7 j

s2 = 5 j

The distance traveled is

s = s1 + s2

s = 7 + 5

s = 12 kilometres

The resultant displacement is

s = s1 + s2

s = 7 i + 5 j

s = (7 i + 5 j) kilometres

If the distance between two asteroids is halved, the gravitational force they exert on each other will
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

e) Be four times greater

Explanation:

Here we have to use Newton's gravitational law that relates the gravitational force between two objects with their masses (m_{1} & m_{2}) and the distance between them (r) in the next way:

F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}} (2)

Now if distance between asteroids is halved:

F_{2}=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{(\frac{r}{2})^{2}}

F_{2}=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{\frac{r^{2}}{4}}

F_{2}=G\frac{4m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}=4G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}

Note that G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}} because (1) is F so:

F_{2}=4F

It's four times greater!

A 332 kg mako shark is moving in the positive direction at a constant velocity of 2.30 m/s along the bottom of a sea when it enc
Digiron [165]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. By definition we know that the initial moment must be equivalent to the final moment of the two objects therefore

p_1 = p_2

m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+ m_2v_2

Here,

m_{1,2} = Mass of each object

u_{1,2} = Initial velocity of each object

v_{1,2}= Final velocity of each object

Since the initial velocity relative to the metal tank is at rest, that velocity will be zero. And considering that in the end, the speed of the two bodies is the same, the equation would become

m_1u_1 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Rearranging to find the velocity,

v_f = \frac{m_1u_1}{ (m_1+m_2)}

Replacing we have that,

v_f = \frac{(332)(2.3)}{ (332+19.5)}

v_f = 2.17 m/s

Therefore the velocity of the shark immediately after it swallows the tank is 2.17m/s

HELP ME!!! NO LINKS!!! Compare and Contrast the scientific definitions of theory and law. Explain why the first law of thermodyn
Nataly_w [17]
The date the model was published.

The use of “laws” originated prior to science splitting from natural philosophy. There’s an implicit assumption that God as the creator laid down both moral and natural laws, with the theologian concerned with the former and the natural philosopher concerned with the latter.

“Theory” begins to take hold in the late 1700s and, very roughly speaking, is used to describe more complex models. “Law” eventually became nearly archaic, although still used to describe very pithy models (Amdahl’s Law, Gustafson’s Law).

The word “model” is gradually superseding both of them.

People have tried to come up with hard-and-fast rules to distinguish them, but scientists are unruly beasts, and use whatever language suits them in the moment.
