Answer:

Slower

Explanation:

Slower because the air would be pushing you back, and the other person would be walking faster because they are being pushed forward by the wind

How many revolutions does the object make during the first 4.0 s?
IRISSAK [1]
<span>Radians/second * seconds = Radians BUT the angular velocity is not constant in this case so we need to integrate ω over time. We know this integral is the area under the curve which we can find using the plot: 20rad/s*2s + (10+5) + 10*0.4 = 59 radians 59 radians * 1rev/2π radians = 59/2π = 9.4 revolutions</span>

a light wave travels from air into a medium of refractive index 1.54. If the wavelength of the light in air is 5.4 * 10^-7. calc
kozerog [31]

3.51 × 10^-7m

Explanation:

Refractive index = wavelength of the light in air ÷ wavelength in the medium

wavelength in the medium = wavelength of the light in air ÷ refractive index

= 5.4 * 10^-7 ÷ 1.54

= 3.51 × 10^-7m

A satellite orbits the Earth in an elliptical orbit. At perigee its distance from the center of the Earth is 22500 km and its sp
aleksley [76]

Answer:

6.09294\times 10^{24}\ kg

Explanation:

K = Kinetic energy

v_p = Perigee speed = 4280 m/s

v_a = Apogee speed = 3990 m/s

r_p = Perigee Distance = 22500000 m

r_a = Apogee Distance = 24100000 m

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

M = Mass of Earth

m = Mass of satellite

In this system the kinetic and potential energies are conserved

K_p+P_p=K_a+P_a\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv_p^2-\frac{GMm}{r_p}=\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2-\frac{GMm}{r_a}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}m(v_p^2-v_a^2)+GMm\left(\frac{1}{r_a}-\frac{1}{r_p}\right)=0\\\Rightarrow M=\frac{v_a^2-v_p^2}{2G}\times \left(\frac{1}{r_a}-\frac{1}{r_p}\right)^{-1}\\\Rightarrow M=\frac{3990^2-4280^2}{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}}\times \left(\frac{1}{24100000}-\frac{1}{22500000}\right)^{-1}\\\Rightarrow M=6.09294\times 10^{24}\ kg

The mass of the Earth is 6.09294\times 10^{24}\ kg

1. What are three examples of how invasive species spread?
Darya [45]

Answer:

Their primary way of spreading is from human activities, they can quickly travel around the world for example these new "murder" hornets that can kill a large bee hive with one sting, they traveled all the way from Asia. Invasive species can also be through people's luggage, small boats, planes and large shipment like cargo carriers. I hope this helps. :  )

What is a good scientific question on a baloon powered car? (it's for my science fair)
Salsk061 [2.6K]

<u>Answer: </u>

Balloon powered car works on the principle of Newtons III law. Escaping air from the balloon, the car accelerates forward. The reaction is the air behind the car, pushing against it, and with the same force car moves forward is the action.

<em>Some scientific questions are:</em>

1. What is the energy stored in the balloon?

Ans: Potential energy (Potential energy is stored in elastic balloon)

2. Which energy is used in balloon-powered car?

Ans: Kinetic energy. (Whenever the balloon escapes the air, potential energy is converted into Kinetic energy)

3. What is the principle involved in balloon powered car?

Ans: Newtons III law.
