Note that this is a position vs time graph.
From A to B, the graph is a straight line with a nonzero slope. This indicates a constant velocity.
From B to C, the graph is a straight line with 0 slope. This indicates a constant position, i.e. the object remains stationary.
From C to D, the graph is a straight line with a nonzero slope. This indicates a constant velocity.
Answer:
22,800 years
Explanation:
Half life equation:
A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)
where A is the final amount,
A₀ is the initial amount,
t is time,
and T is the half life.
0.0625 = (½)^(t / 5700)
log 0.0625 = (t / 5700) log 0.5
4 = t / 5700
t = 22,800
It takes 22,800 years.
Answer:
0.37 m/s to the left
Explanation:
Momentum is conserved. Initial momentum = final momentum.
m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂
Initially, both the fisherman/boat and the package are at rest.
0 = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂
Plugging in values and solving:
0 = (82 kg + 112 kg) v + (15 kg) (4.8 m/s)
v = -0.37 m/s
The boat's velocity is 0.37 m/s to the left.
The answer is D. Small object made of ice and dust that orbits the Sun and forms a coma as it approaches the Sun.
Answer: independent variable: Size of the feather.
Explanation:
In an experiment, the manipulated/independent variable is, as the name implies, the variable that the scientist can control.
In this case, the scientist has only one variable that he can control at will, and this is the size of the feather (he can choose which feather he uses for the experiment)
So the manipulated variable will be the size of the feather.
And the dependent variable is the one that "answers" to the changes in the manipulated variable.
In this case, will be the time that it takes to the feather to fall to the ground.
