Answer:

Animal 1

Explanation:

For an animal moving with uniform motion ( = constant speed, no acceleration), the distance covered in equal time intervals is always the same.

From the table, we can see that this situation occurs for animal 2, animal 3 and animal 4. In fact, for all these 3 animals, the time interval to cover each block of 25 meters remains constant; in particular:

- Animal 2 always takes 4 seconds to cover each 25 m block

- Animal 3 always takes 3 seconds to cover each 25 m block

- Animal 4 always takes 10 seconds to cover each 25 m block

The situation is different for animal 1; in fact:

- it takes 3 seconds to cover the first 25 m

- it takes (5-3)=2 seconds to cover the second block of 25 m

- it takes (6-5)=1 seconds to cover the third block of 25 m

Does the sun fuse hydrogen into helium or vice versa?
NikAS [45]

Hydrogen has the smaller, lighter, simpler nucleus.
Helium has the larger, heavier, more complex nucleus.
Hydrogen nuclei are fused to form helium nuclei. 
When that happens, energy is released.

A small car has a head-on collision with a large truck. Which of the following statements concerning the magnitude of the averag
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The small car and the truck experience the same average force.

Explanation:

Here we need to remember two of Newton's laws.

The second one says that:

F = m*a

force equals mass times acceleration.

And the third one says that;

"If an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A"

From the third law, if the car experiences a force F due to the impact with the truck, then the truck experiences the same force F due to the impact.

But this seems odd, because we would expect to see the car being more affected by the impact, right?

Well, this is explained by the second law.

Suppose that the mass of the car is m, and the mass of the truck is M.

such that M > m

Then for the small car we have:

F = m*a

And for the truck:

F = M*a'

Because the force is the same for both of them, we can write:

m*a = M*a'

a = (M/m)*a'

because M > m, then M/m > 1.

This means that the acceleration that the car experiences is larger than the acceleration for the truck, and this is why we would see that the car seems more affected by the impact, regardless of the fact that both vehicles experience the same force in the impact.

Two objects, one with a mass of and the other with a force of 30.0kg experience a gravitational force of attraction of 7.50 * 10
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for this is

F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} where F is the gravitational force, G is the gravitational constant, m1 is the mass of one object and m2 is the mass of the other object. We are looking for r, the distance between the centers of their masses.

Filling in:

7.5*10^{-8}=\frac{6.67*10^{-11}(90.0)(30.0)}{r^2} and moving things around to solve for r:

r=\sqrt{\frac{6.67*10^{-11}(90.0)(30.0)}{7.5*10^{-8}} } Doing all that and rounding to the 3 sig fig's you need gives us a distance of 1.55 m
