Answer:

The answer is D) Power.

Explanation:

Watt is the coherent derivative unit of the International system of units for power. The watt symbol is W and is equal to 1 joules per second. The watt, its multiples and submultiples are units applicable to any power, be it mechanical, electrical, magnetic, acoustic, or any other type.

If planet A is three times as far from planet C, then the period of its orbit will be __ times as long

liubo4ka [24]

I may be wrong, but I think you're trying to say that Planet-A is
<em>3 times as far from the sun</em> as Planet-C is.

If that's the real question, then the answer is that the period of Orbit-A
is about<em> 5.2</em> times as long as the period of Orbit-C .

Orbital period ≈ (proportional to) (the orbital distance) ^ 3/2 power.

This was empirically demonstrated about 350 years ago by Johannes
and his brilliant Kepple, and derived about 100 years later by Newton
from his formula for the forces of gravity.

A railroad car moving at a speed of 3.46 m/s overtakes, collides and couples with two coupled railroad cars moving in the same d

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

$2.09\ \text{m/s}$

$22298.4\ \text{J}$

Explanation:

m = Mass of each the cars = $1.6\times 10^4\ \text{kg}$

$u_1$ = Initial velocity of first car = 3.46 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial velocity of the other two cars = 1.4 m/s

v = Velocity of combined mass

As the momentum is conserved in the system we have

$mu_1+2mu_2=3mv\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{u_1+2u_2}{3}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{3.46+2\times 1.4}{3}\\\Rightarrow v=2.09\ \text{m/s}$

Speed of the three coupled cars after the collision is $2.09\ \text{m/s}$ .

As energy in the system is conserved we have

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mu_1^2+\dfrac{1}{2}2mu_2^2-\dfrac{1}{2}3mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 3.46^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 1.4^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\times 1.6\times 10^4\times 2.09^2\\\Rightarrow K=22298.4\ \text{J}$

The kinetic energy lost during the collision is $22298.4\ \text{J}$ .

From what three regions do most of the small objects in the universe come?

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Scientists who study the Sun usually divide it up into three main regions: the Sun's interior, the solar atmosphere, and the visible "surface" of the Sun which lies between the interior and the atmosphere. There are three main parts to the Sun's interior: the core, the radiative zone, and the convective zone.

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps :)

Huck Finn walks at a speed of 0.70 m/s across his raft (that is, he walks perpendicular to the raft’s motion relative to the sho

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer

given,

Hunk Finn speed,v_y= 0.7 m/s

Speed of river,v_x = 1.50 m/s

Assuming the speed of the river is in x-direction.

Speed of Hunk Finn to be in y-direction.

Hunk velocity relative to river =

$x = \sqrt{v_y^2+v_x^2}$

$x = \sqrt{2.74}$

$x =1.66\ m/s$

Speed of Hunk relative to river = 1.66 m/s

direction of the boat

$\theta =tan^{-1}(\dfrac{v_y}{v_x})$

$\theta =tan^{-1}(\dfrac{0.7}{1.50})$

$\theta = 25.01^{\circ}$

Hence, angle of the raft is 24.01°

a student needs to calculate the density of some liquid. the student knows that density is equal to mass divided by volume. Name

Advocard [28]

The student can measure a liquid's volume by using a graduated cylinder, or a beaker. Mass can be measured by first weighing an empty container on a scale, and then by adding the liquid to the container and weighing it again.
