Can you please give the phrases? 

But, I'll help what I can.

First, he was the first to discover gravity. He was not bonked by the head by an apple, rather he watched an apple fall from a tree before he decided to explore gravity further. 

He was also the first scientist to be knighted, which is a great honor, as you can expect. 

Newton also developed The Three Laws of Motion. They are extremely important to physics and are considered some of the foundation for physics today. 

He also discovered calculus, which is complex math that is very helpful to scientists today. 

He also discovered the color spectrum using a glass prism, a dark room and window shade with a hole in it. He was able to project the color spectrum onto a piece of paper.

Those are the few I can think of now, but hope it helps!

A 50 kg child runs off a dock at 2.0 ms (horizontally) and lands in a waiting rowboat of mass 150 kg. At what speed does the row
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The boat moves away from the dock at 0.5 m/s.

Explanation:

Hi there!

Since no external forces are acting on the system boy-boat at the moment at which the boy lands on the boat, the momentum of the system is conserved (i.e. it remains constant).

The momentum of the system is calculated as the sum of the momentum of the boy plus the momentum of the boat. Before the boy lands on the boat, the momentum of the system is given by the momentum of the boy.

momentum of the system before the boy lands on the boat:

momentum of the boy + momentum of the boat

m1 · v1 + m2 · v2 = momentum of the system

Where:

m1 and v1: mass and velocity of the boy.

m2 and v2: mass and velocity of the boat.

Then:

50 kg · 2.0 m/s + 150 kg · 0 m/s = momentum of the system

momentum of the system = 100 kg m/s

After the boy lands on the boat, the momentum of the system will be equal to the momentum of the boat moving with the boy on it:

momentum of the system = (m1 + m2) · v (where v is the velocity of the boat).

100 kg m/s = (50 kg + 150 kg) · v

100 kg m/s / 200 kg = v

v = 0.5 m/s

The boat moves away from the dock at 0.5 m/s.

If you exert 250J of work onto a lever that is 5m long, what amount of force are you applying?
maks197457 [2]
From the formula of W = F·d , becuase we have the values for W and d we can find F

W = F·d 
F= W/d
  = 250/5
  = 50 N

40 N of force was applied

In a circuit, energy is transferred to a charge.<br> Where is this energy transferred from?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Electric current.

Explanation:

The energy result from electric current resulting from potential differences between terminals which form an Electric circuit. This energy could come from different sources like chemical, wind, light

An electric circuit is one where there is movement of electrons;this electrons acquire charge which is energy. The electrons flow due to a potential difference; you have heard water flows from a higher position to a lower one freely. The highest height is said to be at higher potential and the lower point low potential.

So it's the same with electrons.

The formular for energy on charge is Q= I × t where I is electric current and t is time.

What is the disadvantage of the parallax method, especially for studying distant parts of the Galaxy?
Katena32 [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Parallax method is used for finding the distance of objects in space there are two types of parallax method that is stellar parallax and trigonometric parallax.The disadvantage of using parallax method is that it can can not reach so far in the Galaxy due to this reason parallax method is generally not used for measuring distance in galaxy.
