Answer: C) ethanol fuel made from corn.

Explanation:

Ethanol made from corn is a type of biofuel, which is made from renewable resources known as biomass (plants, for example).

In the case of bioethanol, this is produced by the fermentation of sugars (from starch) contained in the organic matter of plants, such as beets or corn.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

What is the difference between a physical quantity and a unit

Shalnov [3]

Answer: What is the difference of physical quanity and a unit?

Explanation: If you are working science or math problems, the answer to this question is that quantity is the amount or numerical value, while the unit is the measurement. For example, if a sample contains 453 grams, the quantity is 453 while the unit is grams.

A satellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours iscalled a geosynchronous satellite. If a geosynchronoussatellite is

lesantik [10]

Answer:

35870474.30504 m

Explanation:

r = Distance from the surface

T = Time period = 24 h

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

m = Mass of the Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

Radius of Earth = $6.38\times 10^6\ m$

The gravitational force will balance the centripetal force

$\dfrac{GMm}{R^2}=m\dfrac{v^2}{R}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R}}$

$T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}\\\Rightarrow T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}}$

From Kepler's law we have relation

$T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2r^3}{GM}\\\Rightarrow r^3=\dfrac{T^2GM}{4\pi^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\left(\dfrac{(24\times 3600)^2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{4\pi^2}\right)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow r=42250474.30504\ m$

Distance from the center of the Earth would be

$42250474.30504-6.38\times 10^6=\mathbf{35870474.30504\ m}$

Two football players are pushing a 60 kg blocking sled across the field at a constant speed of 2.0 m/s. The coefficient of kinet

MArishka [77]

Answer:

The sled slides d=0.155 meters before rest.

Explanation:

m= 60 kg

V= 2 m/s

μ= 0.3

g= 9.8 m/s²

W= m * g

W= 588 N

Fr= μ* W

Fr= 176.4 N

∑F = m * a

a= (W+Fr)/m

a= 12.74m/s²

t= V/a

t= 0.156 s

d= V*t - a*t²/2

d= 0.155 m

A Chinook (King) salmon (Genus Oncorynchus) can jump out of water with a speed of 6.75 m / s . If the salmon is in a stream with

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The maximum height that the fish can jump is 2.19 m.

Explanation:

Hi there!

Please, see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem.

The motion of the salmon is a parabolic one because when it jumps, it already has a horizontal velocity (see figure).

The position and velocity vectors of the salmon at a time t, can be calculated as follows:

r = (x0 + v0x · t, y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²)

v = (v0x, v0y + g · t)

Where:

r = position of the salmon at time t.

x0 = initial horizotal position.

v0x = initial horizontal velocity.

t = time.

y0 = initial vertical position.

v0y = initial vertical velocity.

g = acceleration of gravity.

Looking at the figure, notice that at the maximum height, the vertical velocity is zero (because the velocity vector is horizontal). Using the equation of the vertical component of the velocity, we can obtain the time at which the salmon is at its maximum height:

vy = v0y + g · t

To find the initial vertical velocity, v0y, let´s look at the figure. Notice that the initial velocity is the hypotenuse of the triangle formed with the horizontal velocity and the vertical velocity. Then:

v0² = v0x² + v0y²

Solving for v0y:

v0y = √(v0² - v0x²)

v0y = √((6.75 m/s)² - (1.65 m/s)²)

v0y = 6.55 m/s

Now, using the equation of the vertical component of the velocity at the maximum height (vy = 0):

vy = v0y + g · t

0 = 6.55 m/s + (-9.8 m/s²) · t

-6.55 m/s / -9.8 m/s² = t

t = 0.67 s

Now, using the equation of the vertical position at t = 0.67 s, we can find the maximum height:

y = y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²

y = 0 m + 6.55 m/s · 0.67 s + 1/2 · (-9.8 m/s²) · (0.67 s)²

y = 2.19 m

The maximum height that the fish can jump is 2.19 m.
