Answer:
-6.8 m/s²
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 30.5 m/s
v = 0 m/s
t = 4.5 s
Find: a
a = (v − v₀) / t
a = (0 m/s − 30.5 m/s) / 4.5 s
a = -6.8 m/s²
Answer:
Current = 8696 A
Fraction of power lost =
= 0.151
Explanation:
Electric power is given by

where I is the current and V is the voltage.

Using values from the question,

The power loss is given by

where R is the resistance of the wire. From the question, the wire has a resistance of
per km. Since resistance is proportional to length, the resistance of the wire is

Hence,

The fraction lost = 
A second important difference between comets coming from the Kuiper Belt and from the Oort cloud is represented by their different characteristic periods.
In fact, short period comets are thought to generate in the Kuiper belt and have rather predictable orbits with short periods (up to 200 years). There are two major families of short period comets: the Jupiter family with periods of less than 20 years and the Halley family with periods form 20 to 200 years. That's short
