<u>Answer:</u>

The spinning of the earth around its own axis causes day and night.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Earth has two types of motions. It spins around its own axis causing day and night every 12 hours and completes a rotation in 23.93 hours that make a full day. The part of the earth that faces sunlight during spinning experiences day and the other part has night.  It also rotates around the sun and completes one rotation in 365 days that makes a year.

A person pushes a 50kg box to the right with 100N of force at a constant velocity of 5m/s. Calculate the coefficient of friction
Anna11 [10]
The weight of the box is 50x9.8 = 490 N. The force of friction is 100N. F= μΝ so coefficient = 100/490 = 0.20

Ina shoots a large marble (Marble A, mass: 0.08 kg) at a smaller marble (Marble B, mass: 0.05 kg) that is sitting still. Marble
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

2.4 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(0.08 kg)(0.5 m/s) + (0.05 kg)(0 m/s) = (0.08 kg)(-0.1 m/s) + (0.05 kg) v

0.04 kg m/s = -0.08 kg m/s + (0.05 kg) v

0.12 kg m/s = (0.05 kg) v

v = 2.4 m/s
