So, acceleration is the change of velocity in time. If no vectors are used, one can use speed:

a = (final speed - start peed)/ time = 10/5= 1 m/s^2,

Notice that the units are m/s^2, or (m/s)/s. That is speed (m/s) per unit time (s)

What would Hubble's constant be if we found one galaxy moving away at 30,000 km/s at a distance of 600 Mpc?
lora16 [44]

Answer:

H₀ = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁸ s⁻¹

Explanation:

The Hubble's Constant can be found by the following formula:

v = H_o D\\\\H_o = \frac{v}{D}

where,

H₀ = Hubble's Constant = ?

v = speed of galaxy = 30000 km/s = 3 x 10⁷ m/s

D = Distacance = 600 Mpc = (6 x 10⁸ pc)(3.086 x 10¹⁶ m/1 pc)

D = 18.52 x 10²⁴ m

Therefore,

H_o = \frac{3\ x\ 10^7\ m/s}{18.52\ x\ 10^{24}\ m}

<u>H₀ = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁸ s⁻¹</u>

Sawyer launches his 180 kg raft on the Mississippi River by pushing on it with a force of 75N. How long must Sawyer push on the
Daniel [21]

Answer: 4.8 s

Explanation:

We have the following data:

m=180 kg the mass of the raft

F=75 N the force applied by Sawyer

V=2 m/s the raft's final speed

V_{o}=0 m/s the raft's initial speed (assuming it starts from rest)

We have to find the time t

Well, according to Newton's second law of motion we have:

F=m.a (1)

Where a is the acceleration, which can be expressed as:

a=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}=\frac{V-V_{o}}{t-t_{o}} (2)

Substituting (2) in (1):

F=m\frac{V-V_{o}}{t-t_{o}} (3)

Where t_{o}=0

Isolating t from (3):

t=\frac{m(V-V_{o})}{F} (4)

t=\frac{180 kg(2 m/s-0 m/s)}{75 N}

Finally:

t=4.8 s

The speed of a nerve impulse in the human body is about 100 m/s. If you accidentally stub you toe in the dark, estimate the time
vodomira [7]

Answer:

0.02 s

Explanation:

Take the (+x) direction to be up.  

The average velocity v during a time interval Δt is the displacement Δx divided by Δt.  

v=Δx/Δt

 =x_f-x_i/t_f-t_i                 (1)

We assume that your height is 1.6m  

Solving [1]

Δt=Δx/v

  = 0.02 s

Which of the following methods has led to the earliest discoveries of massive planets orbiting near their parent stars a. detect
Mrac [35]

Answer:

c. detecting the gravitational effect of an orbiting planet (The Wobble"") by looking for the Doppler shifts in the star's spectrum

Explanation:

In a solar system the mass of the star and planets affect each other's orbital  movements. The center of gravity of a star and a planet is inside the star. This causes the star to be closer and farther from the Earth at different times. Due to this wobble the star appears to be red shifted when it is farther and blue shifted when it is closer.

When the mass of the planet is high, like a hot Jupiter it causes more wobble i.e., change in radial velocity. This makes it easier to detect the planet. The earliest hot Jupiter found by this method is the planet 51 Pegasi b.
