If you are walking to the elevator on a cruise ship , what are you probably using your frame of reference

Physics
1 answer:
omeli [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The Elevator

Explanation:

The frame of reference is the immovable item and remains at the same place and can be used for guiding some one. For example I am telling you an address by saying that you will cross the mega store and then there will a Ferrari and on the next street is my home. So you kept searching my home and then you called me again. I checked from my window before receiving call and saw that the ferrari was gone. So it took more time which means that the frame of reference choosen was movable item. The frame of reference choosen is always immovable. So here I want to move towards elevator which is immovable so choosed it. Furthermore, ship is movable item and the ocean doesn't specify right direction thatswhy stars were used in the ancient times.

A piece of metal has attained a velocity of 107.8 m/sec after fallinf for 10 seconds what is its initial velocity
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

7.8 m/s

Explanation:

Here object is falling with a gravitational acceleration there  for we can take acceleration = 10 m/ s² and its constant through out the motion there for we can use motion equation

V = U + at

V - Final velocity

U - Initial velocity

a - acceleration

t - time

V=U+at

107.8=U + 10×10

  = 7.8 m/s

How long was a 60 W light bulb turned on if it used a total of 580 J of energy?
icang [17]
Here's the tool you need.  You can't answer the question without this:

           "1 watt"
means
           "1 joule of energy, generated, used, or moved, every second".

So      60 watts  =  60 joules per second

           Total energy generated,
            used, or moved                  = (power) x (time).

                                     580 joules  =  (60 watts) x (time)

Divide each side
by  (60 watts):              Time  =  (580 joules) / (60 joules/sec) 

                                               =  (9 and 2/3)  seconds  .

A motorcycle of mass 100 kilograms slowly rolls off the edge of a cliff and falls for three seconds before reaching the bottom o
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

C) 3,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

We can consider the horizontal velocity of the motorcycle to be zero, since it rolls off the edge of the cliff very slowly. So, we only need to find the vertical velocity at the time of the impact with the ground.

The vertical velocity of the motorcycle at time t is given by (free-fall motion):

v(t)=v_0 -gt

where

v_0=0 is the initial vertical velocity (zero, since the motorcycle is not moving)

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

Since the motorcycle hits the ground after t = 3 seconds, we have

v(3 s)=0-(9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)=-29.4 m/s

And since we know its mass, m=100 kg, we can find its momentum:

p=mv=(100 kg)(-29.4 m/s)=-2940 kg m/s \cdot -3000 kg m/s

and the negative sign simply means downward direction.

During a supernova, the outer layers of a star are blown off and the star's core shrinks down by a factor of 10,000 or more to f
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

a. the core will spin faster.

Explanation:

By law of conservation of angular momentum

(mvR)i= (mvR)f

m= mass of star

v= speed of star

R= radius of star

i= initial

f= final

since, size(R) of the star is reduced by factor of 10,000 and mass remains the same, the velocity must increase by the same factor to keep the angular momentum conserved.

Hence, a. the core will spin faster.
