1) A plane lands on a runway with a speed of 125 m/s, moving east, and it slows to a stop in 13.0 s. What is the magnitude (in m

/s2) and direction of the plane's average acceleration during this time interval?2) Influenced by the gravitational pull of a distant star, the velocity of an asteroid changes from from +20.8 km/s to −17.1 km/s over a period of 2.01 years.(a) What is the total change in the asteroid's velocity? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)(b) What is the asteroid's average acceleration during this interval? (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Answer: 1) a = 9.61m/s² pointing to west.

             2) (a) Δv = - 37.9km/s

                  (b) a = - 6.10⁷km/years

Explanation: Aceleration is the change in velocity over change in time.

1) For the plane:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

a=\frac{125}{13}

a = 9.61m/s²

The plane is moving east, so velocity points in that direction. However, it is stopping at the time of 13s, so acceleration's direction is in the opposite direction. Therefore, acceleration points towards west.

2) Total change of velocity:

\Delta v = v_{f}-v_{i}

\Delta v = -17.1-(+20.8)

\Delta v= -37.9km/s

The interval is in years, so transforming seconds in years:

v = \frac{-37.9}{3.15.10^{-7}}

v=-12.03.10^{7}km/years

Calculating acceleration:

a=\frac{-12.03.10^{-7}}{2.01}

a=-6.10^{7}

Acceleration of an asteroid is a = -6.10⁷km/years .

In your own words, explain how solar heating works
mestny [16]

Answer:

active solar heating systems use solar energy to heat a fluid either liquid or air and then transfer the solar heat directly to the interior space or to a storage system for later use. If the solar system cannot provide adequate space heating, an auxiliary or back-up system provides the additional heat.

hope this helps : )

A.) A bullet accelerates at 8000 m/s2
lukranit [14]

Answer:

0.02 s

160 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 1.6 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 8000 m/s²

A) Find t.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

1.6 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (8000 m/s²) t²

t = 0.02 s

B) Find v.

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (8000 m/s²) (1.6 m)

v = 160 m/s

A telescope is used to take two images, one magnified 100x and the other magnified 400x. In which image would you be able to see
lara [203]

We can see the image in most detail that having 400x magnification as compared to 100x.

<h3>What is magnification?</h3>

Magnification is the process in which the size of an object is enlarging but not physical size of something. Those instruments having high magnification power can shows us the image larger and due to which we can see that image clearly.

So we can conclude that we can see the image in most detail that having 400x magnification.
