An train car of total mass of 13000 kg is pulling into a station and slowing down with an acceleration of -4.56 m/s^2. Before th

e train pulls into the station, a group of 7 stowaway jump off the train. Each stowaway has a mass of 66 kg. If the braking force on the train remains the same, what will be the acceleration of the train once the stowaways jump out of the train?

<h3>Answer:</h3>

-4.73 m/s²

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Each jumper represents about 1/2 of 1% of the mass of the train, so together they total about 3.5% of the mass of the train. If the mass decreases by 3.5% and the braking force remains the same, the acceleration (magnitude) will increase by about 3.5%.

The acceleration will be about 0.17 m/s² more (in magnitude) than it was, or about -4.73 m/s².

A “point-light walker” wears lights on different body locations. When viewed in a dark room, an observer would perceive a(n):
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

person when the point-light walker is moving

Explanation:

A point light walker is an arrangement of dots that moves in a way that mimics a human walking. This is used in the field of Biological Motion Perception.

Biological motion perception is the science that deals with how our brain perceives motion. In order to understand how the brain perceives motion a point light walker is used.

Astronomy can best be described as a/an
Alchen [17]
<span>Astronomy is a natural science that studies celestial objects and phenomena. More generally, all astronomical phenomena that originate outside Earth's atmosphere are within the purview of astronomy. Therefore, the correct answer to the question "Astronomy can best be described as a/an" is "study of objects beyond the Earth's atmosphere."</span>

The ideal gas constant is a proportionality constant that is added to the ideal gas law to account for pressure (P), volume (V), moles of gas (n), and temperature (T) (R). R, the global gas constant, is 8.314 J/K-1 mol-1.

According to the Ideal Gas Law, a gas's pressure, volume, and temperature may all be compared based on its density or mole value.

The Ideal Gas Law has two fundamental formulas.

PV = nRT, PM = dRT.

P = Atmospheric Pressure

V = Liters of Volume

n = Present Gas Mole Number

R = 0.0821atmLmoL K, the Ideal Gas Law Constant.

T = Kelvin-degree temperature

M stands for Molar Mass of the Gas in grams Mol d for Gas Density in gL.
