This is called the Phi Phenomenon.
This is an illusion of movement created when two or more adjacent lights blink on and off in quick succession; when two adjacent stationary lights blink on and off in quick succession; we perceive a single light moving back and forth between them. It is an optical illusion of perceiving a series of still images, when viewed in rapid succession, as continuous motion.

A bowling ball of mass 5.8 kg moves in a
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Velocity of the ping pong ball must be = V2= 6,035.34m/s

Explanation:

M1= momentum of the bowling ball

m1 = mass of the bowling ball= 5.8kg

v1= velocity of the bowling ball= 1.59m/s

M2= momentum of the ping pong ball

m2= mass of the ping pong ball= 1.528 g/1000=  0.001528kg

v2= velocity of the ping pong ball

Momentum of the bowling ball= M1= m1v1= 5.8* 1.59= 9.222 kg-m/s

Momentum of the ping pong ball = M2= M1= m2v2

= 0.001528 *v2= 9.222

v2= 9.222/0.001528= 6,035.34 m/s

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor = how
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor are equivalent to 6 drinks.

Explanation:

In the United States, a standard "drink" of beer has 12 ounces, a standard "drink" of wine has 5 ounces and standard drink of liquor has 1.5 ounces. Then, we obtain the quantity of drinks by dividing the total volume of each drink by its respective unit volume and summing each term. That is:

N = \frac{12\,oz}{12\,\frac{oz}{dr} }+\frac{12\,oz}{5\,\frac{oz}{dr} }+\frac{3\,oz}{1.5\,\frac{oz}{dr} }

N = 1\,dr+2.4\,dr+2\,dr

N = 5.4\,dr

N = 6\,dr

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor are equivalent to 6 drinks.

Based on the data given, in what direction will the car accelerate?
skad [1K]
Vertical forces:
There is a force of 579N acting upward, and a force of 579N
acting downward.
The vertical forces are balanced ... they add up to zero ...
so there's no vertical acceleration. 
Not up, not down.

Horizontal forces:
There is a force of 487N acting to the left, and a force of 632N
acting to the right.
The net horizontal force is

        (487-left + 632-right)  -  (632-right - 487-right) =  145N to the right.

The net force on the car is all to the right.
The car accelerates to the right.

The rate traveled from Amarillo to Austin by a bus averages 60 miles per hour. The bus arrived in Austin after eight hours of tr
jeyben [28]

Answer:

the car would arrive after 10 hr to Austin.

Explanation:

bus average from amarllo to austin = 60 miles per hour

time takne by bus to reach austin = 8 hr

automobile average from amarllo to austin = 60 miles per hour

from the information given in the question:

60 mph ---    8 h

48 mph ---  x h

By using The inverse variation:

60 : 48 = x : 8

60* 8 = 48* x

480 = 48*x

x = 480/48

x = 10 h

the car would arrive after 10 hr to Austin.
