'A' is testable.

'Better' and 'enjoyable' can't be measured.

'Should' is an opinion.

A. Does being in the sun make your skin dry?

You can test this by putting people in the Sun and seeing hop much dryer their skin is than when they're not in the Sun.

A5 kg frisbee is thrown from rest to a final speed of 12 m/s. What is the impulse of the frisbee?

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

60kgm/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of frisbee = 5kg

Final speed = 12m/s

Unknown:

Impulse of the frisbee = ?

Solution:

The impulse of the frisbee is the same as the change in momentum.

It is given as:

Impulse = mass (Final velocity - Initial velocity)

Impulse = 5(12 - 0) = 60kgm/s

A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The kinetic energy is $KE = 7.59 *10^{10} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The radius of the orbit is $r = 2.3 *10^{4} \ km = 2.3 *10^{7} \ m$

The gravitational force is $F_g = 6600 \ N$

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

$KE = \frac{1}{2} * mv^2$

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{G M}{r^2} }$

=> $v^2 = \frac{GM }{r}$

substituting this into the equation

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}$

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

$F_g = \frac{GMm}{r^2}$

Where M is the mass of the planet and m is the mass of the satellite

Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r$

=> $KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r$

substituting values

$KE = \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}$

$KE = 7.59 *10^{10} \ J$

As light shines from air to water, the index of refraction is 1.02 and the angle of incidence is 38.0 Â°. What is the light's an

muminat

Answer:

Light's angle of refraction = 37.1° (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Index of refraction = 1.02

Base of refraction = 1

Angle of incidence = 38°

Find:

Light's angle of refraction

Computation:

Using Snell's law;

Sin[Angle of incidence] / Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = Index of refraction / Base of refraction

Sin38 / Light's angle of refraction = 1.02 / 1

Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = Sin 38 / 1.02

Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = [0.6156] / 1.02

Sin[Light's angle of refraction] = 0.6035

Light's angle of refraction = 37.1° (Approx.)

When its 75 kW (100 hp) engine is generating full power, a small single-engine airplane with mass 700 kg gains altitude at a rat

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

0.2289

Explanation:

Power required to climb= Fv where F is force and v is soeed. We know that F= mg hence Power, P= mgv and substituting 700 kg for m, 9.81 for g and 2.5 m/s for v then

P= 700*9.81*2.5=17167.5 W= 17.1675 kW

To express it as a fraction of 75 kw then 17.1675/75=0.2289 or 22.89%
