A good model of the solar system to present to elementary is the Ptolemaic model.

Physics
1 answer:
Anvisha [2.4K]2 years ago
6 0

The answer is:

B. false

Here's why:

The Ptolemaic model is not accurate and this is because the model is geocentric. This means that this model was developed with the assumption  that the Earth was the center of the universe and the sun and the planets revolved around it. Science has already proven that this is not true.

This model was developed by Claudius Ptolemy.

A 25.0 kg bag of peat moss sits in the back of a flatbed truck, driving up a hill. The bag experiences a 225N normal force. The

Answer:

a

   \theta  =  23.32^o

b

  \mu_s =  0.27

c

s =  0.948 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the bag is m_b  =  25.0 \  kg

The normal force experienced is F_n  =  225 \ N

The maximum acceleration of the bag is a =  2.40 \  m/s^2

Generally this normal force experience by the bag is mathematically represented as

F_n  =  mg cos \theta

=> 225  =  (25 * 9.8) cos \theta

=> 0.9183  =   cos \theta

=> \theta  = cos^{-1}[0.9183]

=> \theta  =  23.32^o

Generally for the bag not to slip , it means that the frictional force is equal to the sliding force

F_f =  F_s

Hence F_f is mathematically represented as

F_f   =  \mu_s  *  F_n

While F_s is mathematically represented as

F_s   =  m * a

So

\mu_s  *  F_n = m * a

=> \mu_s  *  225 = 25 * 2.40

=> \mu_s =  0.27

Generally from the workdone equation we have that

KE_f - KE_i =  W_f

Here W_f is the work done by friction which is mathematically represented as

W_f  =  m * g * \mu_k * s

Here s is the distance covered by the bag

KE_f is zero given that velocity at rest is zero

and

KE_i = \frac{1}{2}  *  m* v_i^2

so

   \frac{1}{2}  *  m* v_i^2 = m * g * \mu_k * s

=>  \frac{1}{2}  *  v_i^2 =   g * \mu_k * s

substituting  2.55 m/s for v_i and 0.350 for  \mu_k  we have that

     \frac{1}{2}  *  2.55^2 =   9.8 * 0.350 * s

=> s =  0.948 \  m

A bike rider was moving to the right at a constant speed. Suddenly the wind then starts blowing against her with 3 N of force to
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

This question can be better understood when discussed using the Newton's first law of motion which states that an object would continue to move with a uniform speed (in a straight line) unless acted upon by an external force. What happens here (in the question) is that the bike rider would have continued moving at a constant speed (to the right) if not for the opposing force of the wind that acted against her (to the left). <u>This wind/force would cause her speed to reduce or slow down (as posited by the law)</u>.

Which of the following is an example of the Doppler effect? A water bug on the surface of a pond is producing small ripples in t
noname [10]

Answer:

A police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase.

Explanation:

In Physics, Doppler effect can be defined as the change in frequency of a wave with respect to an observer in motion and moving relative to the source of the wave.

Simply stated, Doppler effect is the change in wave frequency as a result of the relative motion existing between a wave source and its observer.

The term "Doppler effect" was named after an Austrian mathematician and physicist known as Christian Johann Doppler while studying the starlight in relation to the movement of stars.

<em>The phenomenon of Doppler effects is generally applicable to both sound and light. </em>

An example of the Doppler effect is a police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase. This is so because when a sound object moves towards you, its sound waves frequency increases, thereby causing a higher pitch. However, if the sound object is moving away from the observer, it's sound waves frequency decreases and thus resulting in a lower pitch.

<em>Other fields were the Doppler effects are applied are; astronomy, flow management, vibration measurement, radars, satellite communications etc. </em>

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The fractional kinetic energy will be lost if the collision is inelastic. In inelastic collision, the kinetic energy is converted into other forms of energy.

The lost energy became heat and sound energy.

Explanation:

During inelastic collision, the kinetic energy of a moving object does not conserve. It changes into another form of energy such as sound energy and heat energy etc.

For example, when a moving car hit another car or wall etc, the kinetic energy is converted into sound and heat energy. This type of collision is inelastic collision.
