1. Each plot represents the meters traveled by both the Hare and the Tortoise over a certain period of time (minutes).

2. The Tortoise lines show it lines is steadily increasing over a period of time. So as more time elapses the faster the tortoise becomes it travels more meters. The Tortoise line shows steady acceleration.

3. The Hare in the first 5 minutes had a rapid fast advancement up to 40 meters. But for the 5-20 mins. period the Hare did not move at all. Its speed stayed at the same place. But towards the end 20-25 mins. marks the Hare started moving again. At the end the Hare at first had a rapid acceleration but stopped for a long time then it sped up briefly.

Vector C has a magnitude of 24.6 m and points in the − y ‑ direction. Vectors A and B both have positive y ‑ components, and mak

frez [133]

Answer:

A= 61.35

B= -44.40

Explanation:

1. Using the components method we have:

$A_{x}= A cos \alpha\\B_{x}= B cos \beta\\C_{x}= 0\\\\A_{y}= A sin \alpha\\B_{y}= B sin \beta\\C_{y}= 24.6\\$

Considering that the vector sum $A+B+C=0$ , then:

$|V|=\sqrt{V_{x}^{2} +V_{y}^{2} }=0$

Then:

$V_{x} ^{2} =0; V_{x} =0\\V_{y} ^{2} =0; V_{y} =0$

It means the value of x and y component is 0.

2. Determinate the equations that describe each component:

$V_{x}= A cos \alpha -B cos \beta=0 (1)\\V_{y}= A sin \alpha +B sin \beta - C=0 (2)$

Form Eq. (1):

$A=B \frac{cos \beta}{cos \alpha} (3)$

Replacing A in Eq. (2):

$(B\frac{cos \beta}{cos \alpha})(sin \alpha)+ B sin\beta-C=0\\(B\frac{cos \beta}{cos \alpha})(sin \alpha)+ B sin\beta-=C\\\\B(\frac{cos \beta. sin \alpha}{cos \alpha}+ sin\beta)=C\\B=C(\frac{cos \beta. sin \alpha}{cos \alpha}+ sin\beta)^{-1} (4)$

Replacing values of C, α and β in (4):

$B= 24.6 (\frac{(cos 27.7)(sin 44.9)}{cos 44.9}+sin 27.7)^{-1} \\B= -44.4$

Replacing value of B in (3)

$A=-44.40\frac{cos 27.7}{sin 49.9} \\A= 61.35$

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Since the momentum of the body remains constant ( conserved) the trolley slows down (its velocity reduces) since its mass increases.

Discuss why the article says the fact that we’re in our universe complicates our understanding of the expansion of the universe.

MArishka [77]

<span>Because of our perception of the universe from inside the universe, we are unable to see how and towards what the universe is expanding. Also, our understanding of it is further complicated because we are moving as part of the expansion, thus distorting our perception of it.</span>
