Influenced by the gravitational pull of a distant star, the velocity of an asteroid changes from from +19.3 km/s to −18.8 km/s o

ver a period of 2.07 years. (a) what is the total change in the asteroid's velocity? (indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) -3.81e4 correct: your answer is correct. m/s (b) what is the asteroid's average acceleration during this interval? (indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) -5.84e-6 incorrect: your answer is incorrect. how does average acceleration depend on the change in velocity and the change in time? m/s2 additional materials

As per above given data

initial velocity = 19.3 km/s

final velocity = - 18.8 km/s

now in order to find the change in velocity

\Delta v = v_f - v_i

\Delta v = -18.8 - 19.3

\Delta v = -38.1 km/s

\Delta v = -3.81 * 10^4 m/s

Part b)

Now we need to find acceleration

acceleration is given by formula

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

given that

\Delta v =- 3.81 * 10^4 m/s

\Delta t = 2.07 years = 6.53 * 10^7 s

now the acceleration is given as

a = \frac{-3.81 * 10^4}{6.53 * 10^7}

a = - 5.84 * 10^{-4}m/s^2

so above is the acceleration

Explain the difference between a conductor and an insulator. Give two examples of each.
docker41 [41]
There are different kinds of conductors, most notably electrical and thermal conductors. But they are often inclusive of each other (electrical conductors are typically good thermal conductors). A conductor transmits something through its body with high efficiency while an insulator does not transmit very well. In the case of electricity, a conductor transmits electrical energy between two points while an insulator blocks the flow of electricity. Two examples of conductors are copper and silver. Two examples of insulators are wood and styrofoam.

The effect of a particle in a fluid attaining its terminal velocity is that the?​
eduard

Answer:

In fluid dynamics, an object is moving at its terminal velocity if its speed is constant due to the restraining force exerted by the fluid through which it is moving. ... At this point the object ceases to accelerate and continues falling at a constant speed called the terminal velocity (also called settling velocity).

The highest freefall jump on record is from a height of almost 38,000 m. At this height, the acceleration of gravity is slightly
lina2011 [118]

Increasing his acceleration will impact his velocity and rate of displacement covered in that as the speed increases due to the increased rate of acceleration, the rate of air resistance also increases.  

<h3>What is air resistance?</h3>

Air resistance is a force created by air. When an item moves through the air, the force operates in the opposite direction.

When a diver descends, the force of air resistance acts to counteract the force of gravity. As the skydiver falls faster and faster, the quantity of air resistance grows until it equals the magnitude of gravity's force.

A balance of forces is achieved when the force of gravity equals the force of air resistance, and the skydiver no longer accelerates. The skydiver reaches what is known as terminal velocity.

A distant galaxy has a redshift z = 5.82 and a recessional velocity vr = 287,000 km/s (about 96% of the speed of light.) Notice
vlabodo [156]

Answer: 4100 Mpc

Explanation:

Since H o = 70 km/s/Mpc

Redshift z = 5.82

Recessional velocity vr = 287,000 km/s

Then, the distance to the galaxy in light years will be:

= Recessional velocity / H o

= 287000 / 70

= 4100 Mpc
