Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.

Below are the choices and the answer is <span>B.
</span>a.) Models can be changed by scientists who are more famous than previous scientists.
<span>b.) As technology advances, new experiments often expose problems in accepted theories. </span>
<span>c.) Scientists tend to value new theories because they are more exciting. </span>
<span>d.) A newer theory is more valid because it uses more mathematics. </span>

A diver dives off of a raft - what happens to the diver? the raft? how does this relate to newton's third law? action force: ___

kondaur [170]

<span>Actually newtons third law says for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, Hence here in this case, the diver diving of a raft is the action, after which surely reaction should come in the form where the raft and the driver will rebound with same speed back, and hence here the action force is diving and reaction force is rebounding from the diving place, with same intensity.</span>

Consider the following three objects, each of the same mass and radius: (1) a solid sphere (2) a solid disk (3) a hoop All three

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is

a) 1, 2, 3

Explanation:

In rolling down an inclined plane, the potential energy is Transferred to both linear and rotational kinetic energy thus

PE = KE or mgh = 1/2×m×v² + 1/2×I×ω²

The transformation equation fom potential to kinetic energy is =

m×g×h = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{2}{5} mr^{2} )(\frac{v}{r}) ^{2}$

$v_{Sphere}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{10}{7} gh}$

$v_{Hoop}$ = $\sqrt{gh}$

$v_{Disc}$ = $\sqrt{\frac{4}{3} gh}$

Therefore the order is with increasing rotational kinetic energy hence

the first is the sphere 1 followed by the disc 2 then the hoop 3

the correct order is a, 1, 2, 3

An observer stands 24.7 m behind a marksman practicing at a rifle range. The marksman fires the rifle horizontally, the speed of

GaryK [48]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Velocity of bullet, $c_{p}$ = 814.8 m/s

Observer distance from marksman, d = 24.7 m

Let us assume that time necessary for report of rifle to reach the observer is t and will be calculated as follows.

t = $\frac{24.7}{343}$ (velocity in air = 343 m/s)

= 0.072 sec

Now, before the observer hears the report the distance traveled by the bullet is as follows.

$d_{b} = c_{b} \times t$

= $814.8 \times 0.072$

= 58.66

= 59 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that each bullet will travel a distance of 59 m.

Help plzzz!!! I only have 10 minutes to turn in

The mechanic did 5406 Joules of work pushing the car.

That's the energy he put into the car. When he stops pushing, all the energy he put into the car is now the car's kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²)

And there we have it

The car's mass is 3,600 kg.
Its speed is 'v' m/s .
(1/2) (mass) (v²) = 5,406 Joules

(1/2) (3600 kg) (v²) = 5406 joules

1800 kg (v²) = 5406 joules

v² = (5406 joules) / (1800 kg)

v² = (5406/1800) (joules/kg)

= = = = = This section is just to work out the units of the answer:

v² = (5406/1800) (Newton-meter/kg)

v² = (5406/1800) (kg-m²/s² / kg)

v² = (5406/1800) (m²/s²)

= = = = =

v = √(5406/1800) m/s

<em>v = 1.733 m/s</em>
