Your car is stalled in the middle of a large patch of ice (assumed to be frictionless). You have a friend that has thrown a rope

to you and you attach it to the car.Your friend then applies a continuous horizontal force of 550 N to you and the car. If you and the car have a total mass of 1430 kg, how long will it take for you to reach

Answer:

The time depends on the distance that they have to travel

x(t) = \frac{0.3846t^{2} }{2}

Explanation:

The only horizontal force exerts over the car and you, it is the force that your friend is applied

Newton's Second Law of Motion defines the relationship between acceleration, force, and mass, thus

\sum{F} = ma

        550 = 1430a

            a = 0.3846 m/s2

             

The car and you have a motion under constant acceleration, then theirs position to a time-based is:

x(t) = x_{0} + v_{0}t +\frac{at^{2} }{2}

By the initial conditions

x(t) = \frac{at^{2} }{2}

x(t) = \frac{0.3846t^{2} }{2}

The time depends on the distance that they have to travel

Imagine Two Artificial Satellites Orbiting Earth At The Same Distance. One Satellite Has A Greater Mass Than The Other One? Whic
Bad White [126]

After reading this whole question, I feel like I've already
earned 5 points !

-- Two satellites at the same distance, different masses:

The forces of gravity between two objects are directly
proportional to the product of the objects' masses.  In
other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object on its surface are proportional to the mass of
the object.  In other words, people with more mass weigh more
on the Earth, and the Earth weighs more on them. 

If the satellites are both at the same distance from Earth,
then the Earth pulls on the one with more mass with greater
force, and also the one with more mass pulls on the Earth
with greater force.

-- Two satellites with the same mass, at different distances:

The forces of gravity between two objects are inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them. 
In other words, the gravitational forces between the Earth
and an object are inversely proportional to the square of
the distance between the object and the center of the Earth. 

If the satellites both have the same mass, then the Earth
pulls on the nearer one with greater force, and also the
nearer one pulls on the Earth with greater force.

-- Resistor in a circuit when the voltage changes:

The resistance depends on how the resistor was manufactured. 
Its resistance is marked on it, and doesn't change.  It remains
the same whether the voltage changes, the current changes,
the time of day changes, the cost of oil changes, etc.

If you increase the voltage in the circuit where that resistor is
installed, the current through the resistor increases.  If the current
remains constant, then you can be sure that somebody snuck over
to your circuit when you weren't looking, and they either installed
another resistor in series with the original one to make the total
resistance bigger, or else they snipped the original one out of the
circuit and quickly connected one with more resistance in its place.

"why are some galaxies' spectra blueshifted rather than redshifted?"
stira [4]
This phenomena is also called the Doppler shift. When the source of light is approaching towards an observer, the color tends to be blue shifted, but when the source is moving away or being stretch, the color tends to red shifted. In astronomy it can be use how fast galaxy is moving towards us or how fast it moves away.

Imagine a particle that has three times the mass of the electron. All other quantities given above remain the same. What is the
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The only parameter that changes is mass m

It is only necessary to calculate the ratio Eh/Ee

m_{h}=3m_{e}\\E_{h}=\frac{3m_{e}v^{2}}{2}\\E_{e}=\frac{m_{e}v^{2}}{2}\\\frac{E{h}}{E{e}}=3

The kinetic energy of the heavy paricle is three times the kinetic energy of an electron
