Answer:
<em>The distance covered by comet is </em>
Explanation:
Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance with time. It is given by the equation speed= 
Thus distance= 
In this problem it is given that speed of comet= 
time travelled by the comet= 4 hours
Thus distance=
= 
= 
Answer:
At which point does the planet have the least gravitational force acting on it?
Explanation:
In an elliptical orbit, when a planet is at its furthest point from the Sun, it is under the least amount of gravity, meaning that the force of gravity is strongest when it is closest.
I was about to say: because people generally get comfortable with
what they think they know, and don't like the discomfort of being told
that they have to change something they're comfortable with.
But then I thought about it a little bit more, and I have a different answer.
"Society" might initially reject a new scientific theory, because 'society'
is totally unequipped to render judgement of any kind regarding any
development in Science.
First of all, 'Society' is a thing that's made of a bunch of people, so it's
inherently unequipped to deal with scientific news. Anything that 'Society'
decides has a lot of the mob psychology in it, and a public opinion poll or
a popularity contest are terrible ways to evaluate a scientific discovery.
Second, let's face it. The main ingredient that comprises 'Society' ... people ...
are generally uneducated, unknowledgeable, unqualified, and clueless in the
substance, the history, and the methods of scientific inquiry and reporting.
There may be very good reasons that some particular a new scientific theory
should be rejected, or at least seriously questioned. But believe me, 'Society'
doesn't have them.
That's pretty much why.
<span>A van is traveling on a road at a speed of 55 km/h relative to a
stationary observer on the side of the road. A girl sitting near the
driver of the van throws a paper airplane to a boy at the back of the
van with a speed of 2 km/h relative to the girl, the boy, and the van.
The speed of the paper airplane, relative to the same stationary observer
on the side of the road, is (55 - 2) = 53 km/h. No rounding is necessary.</span>
The velocity of B after elastic collision is 3.45m/s
This type of collision is an elastic collision and we can use a formula to solve this problem.
<h3>Elastic Collision</h3>
The data given are;
- m1 = 281kg
- u1 = 2.82m/s
- m2 = 209kg
- u2 = -1.72m/s
- v1 = ?
Let's substitute the values into the equation.
From the calculation above, the final velocity of the car B after elastic collision is 3.45m/s.
