Answer:
Found this off of google, "When you inflate the balloon, the dots slowly move away from each other because the rubber stretches in the space between them. ... This stretching of space, which causes the distance between galaxies to increase, is what astronomers mean by the expansion of the Universe."
The correct answer would be 1.7 m/s:
Start with what you know. In the y-direction, we know the jumper must fall 15 meters and starts with 0 velocity in the y direction. You can also assume that the acceleration of gravity is pulling down on the jumper at 9.8 m/s. Once you have these three you can plug it into kinematic a equation to find time
x=Vot+1/2at^2
15=(0)t+1/2(9.8)(t)^2
t=1.75
You get time=1.75 seconds. Since this is a kinematics problem, both the x and y direction have the same amount of time. You can then see that the x displacement is 3 to avoid the rocks, and acceleration is 0 in the x direction because no force is speeding it up. Therefore you can use the same equation to find initial velocity and final velocity, which are gonna be the same because we have 0 acceleration:
X=Vot+1/2at^2
3=Vi(1.75)+1/2(0)(1.75)^
Vi=1.7
1.7 is your answer
I have my work in the picture I really like to make charts to help keep everything organized if that helps you
Answer= 12.5 km
0.5 km x km
_______=______
1 min 25 min
Cross multiply
1x=12.5
divide both sides by 1
x=12.5
You traveled 12.5 km
Answer:
The Copernican model displaced the geocentric model of Ptolemy that had prevailed for centuries, placing Earth at the center of the Universe. It is often regarded as the launching point to modern astronomy and the Scientific Revolution.
