That's the circulation of fluids on account of different densities at different places in the fluid, which almost always means different temperatures.

Racing cars driven by chris and kelly are side by side at the start of a race. the table shows the velocities of each car (in mi

Mamont248 [21]

Solution

distance travelled by Chris

\Delta t=\frac{1}{3600}hr.

X_{c}= [(\frac{21+0}{2})+(\frac{33+21}{2})+(\frac{55+47}{2})+(\frac{63+55}{2})+(\frac{70+63}{2})+(\frac{76+70}{2})+(\frac{82+76}{2})+(\frac{87+82}{2})+(\frac{91+87}{2})]\times\frac{1}{3600}

=\frac{579.5}{3600}=0.161miles

Kelly,

\Delta t=\frac{1}{3600}hr.

X_{k}=[(\frac{24+0}{2})+(\frac{3+24}{2})+(\frac{55+39}{2})+(\frac{62+55}{2})+(\frac{71+62}{2})+(\frac{79+71}{2})+(\frac{85+79}{2})+(\frac{85+92}{2})+(\frac{99+92}{2})+(\frac{103+99}{2})]\times\frac{1}{3600}

=\frac{657.5}{3600}

\Delta X=X_{k}-X_{C}=0.021miles

A race car drives one lap around a race track that is 500 meters in length.

pychu [463]

Explanation:

Check out the picture I drew for a minute before reading this...

B. Distance [the red line] is a scalar quantity reflecting how far an object has traveled. Displacement [the green line] is a vector quantity reflecting how far an object has moved from a point. The key difference is that distance can be any sort of path while displacement is always a vector (or a straight line) between a starting point and a finishing point. Sometimes distance and displacement are equal to one another. Sometimes you have a distance traveled, but zero displacement overall; which is what's going on in your question.

A. The distance that the racecar traveled is indeed 500m. But at the end of the lap, it is right back where it started. So overall, it has been displaced 0m.

The 10-lb block has a speed of 4 ft/s when the force of f=(8t2)f=(8t2) lb is applied. determine the velocity of the block when t

KatRina [158]

The velocity of the block when t == 2 s is 60.7 ft./sec.

Equations of Motion.

Here the friction is $F_f = \mu_k N$ = 0.2 N

$+ \uparrow \sum F_y = ma_y; \quad N – 10 = \frac { 10 } { 32.2 }(0) \quad N = 10 lb \\ \begin{aligned} \underrightarrow{ + } \sum F_x = ma_x; \quad 8t^2 – 0.2(10 &) = \frac { 10 } { 32.2 }a \\ & a = 3.22(8t^2 – 2) ft/s^2 \end{aligned}$

Kinematics.

The velocity of the block as a function of t can be determined by

integrating dv = adt using the initial condition v = 4 ft./s at t = 0.

$\int_{ 4 ft/s }^{ v } dv = \int_0^t 3.22(8t^2 – 2)dt \\ \begin{aligned} v – &4 = 3.22 (\frac 8 3 t^3 – 2t) \\ & v = \{8.5867t^3 – 6.44t + 4 \} ft/s \end{aligned}$

The displacement as a function of t can be determined by integrating

ds = vdt using

the initial condition s = 0 at t = 0

$\int_0^s ds = \int_0^t (8.5867t^3 – 6.44t + 4)dt \\ s = \{2.1467t^4 – 3.22t^2 + 4t \} ft$

at t = 2 sec

s = 30 ft.

Thus, at s = 30 ft.,

$\begin{aligned} v &= 8.5867(2.0089^3) – 6.44(2.0089) + 4 \\ &= 60.67 ft/s \\ &= 60.7 ft/s \end{aligned}$

Kinematics is a subfield of physics, developed in classical mechanics, that describes the motion of points, bodies (objects), and systems of bodies (groups of objects) without considering the forces that cause them to move.

Kinematics, as a field of study, is often referred to as the "geometry of motion" and is occasionally seen as a branch of mathematics. A kinematics problem begins by describing the geometry of the system and declaring the initial conditions of any known values of position, velocity and/or acceleration of points within the system.

Then, using arguments from geometry, the position, velocity and acceleration of any unknown parts of the system can be determined. The study of how forces act on bodies falls within kinetics, not kinematics. For further details, see analytical dynamics.

How did astronomers precisely determine the length of an Astronomical Unit in the 1960s?

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Use of telemetry and radar astronomy

Explanation:

An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.

After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.

The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.

A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured, once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using

distance = speed X time.

However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors
