According to Newton's first law of motion, if the net force acting on an object is zero, the object remains at rest, or if the object is already moving, continues to move in a straight line with constant speed. Galileo realized the motion of an object doesn't change until an unbalanced force acts on it.

Valentin [98]

Answer:

8717 meters.

Explanation:

We need to know the conversion factors. We know that:

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

1 yard = 0.9144 meters

This means that:

$\frac{1609.34 meters}{1 mile}=1$

$\frac{0.9144 meters}{1 yard}=1$

It is convenient to leave the units we want at the end in the numerator so the ones in the denominator cancel out with the ones we want to remove, as will be seen in the next step.

We will convert first the miles, then the yards, and add them up.

$5miles=5miles\frac{1609.34 meters}{1 mile}=8046.7meters$

$733yards=733yards\frac{0.9144 meters}{1 yard}=670.2552meters$

So total distance is the sum of these, 8717 meters.

The gravitational field strength due to its planet is 5N/kg What does it mean?

Dominik [7]

Answer:

The weight of an object is the force on it caused by the gravity due to the planet. The weight of an object and the gravitational field strength are directly proportional. For a given mass, the greater the gravitational field strength of the planet, the greater its weight.

Weight can be calculated using the equation:

weight = mass × gravitational field strength

This is when:

weight (W) is measured in newtons (N)

mass (m) is measured in kilograms (kg)

gravitational field strength (g) is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

0.07°C

Explanation:

solution:

the speed of a sound in water is:

v(T)=1480+4(T-4°C)

at 4°C the travel time is:

t(4◦C) = ( 7600 × 103 m ) / (1480 m/s) = 5202.7 s

5°C, the travel time is:

t(5◦C) = ( 7600 × 103 m ) / (1484 m/s) = 5188.7 s

one degree C corresponds to a ∆t of 14 s so temperature difference is:

ΔT=1 s/14 s=0.07◦C

A graph that shows how position depends on time is a?

AfilCa [17]

Hello!

A graph that shows how position is depending on time is known as a Position Time Graph.

This is a graph used in Physics to help us understand how motion (positive/negative velocity) changes over a period of time. Motion can be seen in two ways on this graph: constant velocity and changing velocity, otherwise known as acceleration.

Hopes this help you answer your question!

Answer:

The vertical distance that the ski jumper fell is 417.45 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial horizontal velocity of the jumper, $V_x$ = 26 m/s

horizontal distance of the jumper, dx = 240 m

The time of the motion is given by;

dx = Vₓt

t = dx / Vₓ

t = 240 / 26

t = 9.23 s

The vertical distance traveled by the diver is given by;

$d_y = V_yt + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

initial vertical velocity, $V_y$ , = 0

$d_y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\d_y = \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(9.23)^2\\\\d_y = 417.45 \ m$

Therefore, the vertical distance that the ski jumper fell is 417.45 m.
