Write the first equation of motion. Under what condition(s) is this equation valid?​
Zepler [3.9K]

Explanation:

The first equation of motion in kinematics is given by :

v=u+at .....(1)

u is initial speed

a is acceleration

v is final speed

t is time

Equation (1) is valid when the object is moving with constant acceleration. This equation gives relation between velocity and time.

What are potential impacts of pollution on a watershed? Check all that apply.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

contaminated drinking water

deaths of sea creatures that are used as a food source

limits to potential economic activities such as a fishing

Explanation:

A watershed is a large area that comprises of drainage area of all the surrounding water bodies meeting at a common affluence point before draining into sea or ocean or any other large water body. Pollution in this area can pollute the small water streams flowing through it, thereby polluting the larger water body into which it drains.  

Thus, the water extracted for drinking from such area will be contaminated. Pollution in larger water body can cause death of water creature and hence pose a threat to fishing.

A 100-kg astronaut is floating in outer space. If the astronaut throws a 2-kilogram wrench at a speed of 10 meters per second, w
sergey [27]

Since Astronaut and wrench system is isolated in the space and there is no external force on it

So here momentum of the system will remain conserved

so here we can say

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

initially both are at rest

so here plug in all values

0 = 100 v_{1f} + 2\times 10

v_{1f} = -0.20 m/s

so here the astronaut will move in opposite direction and its speed will be equal to 0.20 m/s
