<span>a) 1960 m b) 960 m Assumptions. 1. Ignore air resistance. 2. Gravity is 9.80 m/s^2 For the situation where the balloon was stationary, the equation for the distance the bottle fell is d = 1/2 AT^2 d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2 d = 4.9 m/s^2 * 400 s^2 d = 4.9 * 400 m d = 1960 m For situation b, the equation is quite similar except we need to account for the initial velocity of the bottle. We can either assume that the acceleration for gravity is negative, or that the initial velocity is negative. We just need to make certain that the two effects (falling due to acceleration from gravity) and (climbing due to initial acceleration) counteract each other. So the formula becomes d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2 - 50 m/s * T d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2 - 50m/s *20s d = 4.9 m/s^2 * 400 s^2 - 1000 m d = 4.9 * 400 m - 1000 m d = 1960 m - 1000 m d = 960 m</span>

10. Ron’s father finally installed cruise control on their flying car. He was having trouble because he kept of forgetting that
serg [7]

Air drag is the frictional force which is due to air molecules and it is always opposite to the direction of motion

So here direction of air resistance is always opposite to the motion or velocity

Now if Car is travelling then the force on the car due to engine is always in the direction of velocity of car

Because here engine will provide the force to accelerate the car.

So opposite to that motion there is air resistance.

So here correct answer will be

<em>B) The forward force applied by the engine</em>

A child on a skateboard experiences a 75 N force with an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2.
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The mass of the child + skateboard is 50 kg

Explanation:

In this problem, we can apply Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on a system

m is the mass of the system

a is the acceleration of the system

In this problem, our system is the child + the skateboard. The net force on them is

F = 75 N

and their acceleration is

a=1.5 m/s^2

So we can re-arrange the equation above to find their combined mass:

m=\frac{F}{a}=\frac{75}{1.5}=50 kg

How does the change in the temperature of the universe provide evidence for universe expansion that supports the Big Bang Theory
xeze [42]

Question:

1) The universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos accumulates.

2) The universe is warming which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses.

3) The universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses.

4) The universe is warming which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos accumulates.​

Answer:

The correct option is;

3) The Universe is cooling which, according to the Big Bang Theory, is expected to happen as the cosmos disperses

Explanation:

With the temperature measurement carried out using the CSIRO radio telescope, Astronomers have been able to determine a temperature difference in the universe from 5.08 Kelvin 7.2 billion light years away to 2.73 Kelvin in the Universe today, which is in support of the Big Bang theory that as the Universe expanded from a state of extreme temperature that cools down as the Universe expands or the cosmos disperses.
