Change in direction, slowing down, and speeding up are all CHANGES of velocity, and THAT's called acceleration.

Constant velocity isn't a change of velocity, so it isn't called acceleration.

An enormous thunderstorm covers Dallas-Ft. Worth. Your best friend Clark is a storm chaser and heads to the center of the storm

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

t = 0.437 s

Explanation:

The speed of sound is a constant that is worth v = 343 m / s

v = d / t

t = d / v

the time it takes for the sound to reach Clark at d = 150 m is

t = 150/343

t = 0.437 s

This same sound takes much longer to reach you

t₂ = 127 10³/343

t₂ = 370 s

A man 2 m tall walks horizontally at a constant rate of 1 m/s toward the base of a tower 23 m tall. When the man is 10 m from th

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

$\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=0.038\ rad/s$

Explanation:

Given that

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}= -1\ m/s$

From the diagram

$tan\theta=\dfrac{21}{x}$

By differentiating with time t

$sec^2\theta \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=-\dfrac{21}{x^2}\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

When x= 10 m

$tan\theta=\dfrac{21}{10}$

θ = 64.53°

Now by putting the value in equation

$sec^2\theta \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=-\dfrac{21}{x^2}\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$sec^264.53^{\circ} \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=-\dfrac{21}{10^2}\times (-1)$

$\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=0.038\ rad/s$

Therefore rate of change in the angle is 0.038\ rad/s

zimovet [89]

definition of breeder reactors.

These are a type of nuclear reactors which produce more fissile material than they consume

Advantages: Breeder reactors produce Pu-239 which can be extensively used as a nuclear fuel. Also, Pu-239 can absorb neutron to form Pu-240, which is another fertile material.[1]

An 8.5-l tire is filled with 0.55 mol of gas at a temperature of 305 k. what is the pressure of the gas in the tire?

const2013 [10]

Answer:

1.62 atm

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the ideal gas equation:

$pV=nRT$

where:

p = ? is the pressure of the gas in the tire

V = 8.5 L is the volume of the tire

n = 0.55 mol is the number of moles of the gas

R = 0.0821 atm L / K mol is the gas constant

T = 305 K is the temperature of the gas

By re-arranging the equation and substituting the numbers in, we find:

$p=\frac{nRT}{V}=\frac{(0.55 mol)(0.0821 Latm/Kmol)(305 K)}{8.5 L}=1.62 atm$

Pie

<u>Galileo's discovery shows that, to an observer on Earth, Venus has phases just like Earth's moon. This observation provide support for the heliocentric model of the solar system as follows:</u>

Galileo noticed the Moon is not flat, but rocky and rugged-just like the Earth did.
He used his telescope to observe the Venus phases. Galileo's findings confirmed his confidence in the concept of Copernicus that Earth and remaining planets revolve around the Sun, i.e. Heliocentrism.
While most individuals in Galileo's days assumed that the Earth was the center of the universe and that the Sun and planets revolved around it, i.e. geocentrism.
The idea of geocentric was generally preferred by the prominent and strong Catholic Church, and when Galileo started writing papers on his belief in a heliocentric with a valid explanation, he was called to Rome to face the inquisition's charges towards him.
Thus in early 1616 he was accused of being a heretic, but later he cleared of charges of "heresy" with warning that he should not spread his belief.
But he pursued his astronomy research, and was increasingly confident that all planets revolved around the Sun. Therefore he published a book in 1632 which explained that Copernicus' heliocentric theory was appropriate.
Thus after this finally he was charged by "heresy" and sentenced to life imprisonment in 1633, but due to his poor health he lived imprisonment under house arrest and finally died on January 8, 1642.
