Answer:

Our star ,that is, Sun belong to Population I.

Explanation:

In 1940s, stars were divided into two categories by Wlter Baade:

a. Population I (Metal-rich)

b. Population II (Metal-poor)

Population I stars tend to be luminous, concentrated in the disks of spiral galaxies. They are still hot and young containing rich amount of heavy metals.

Sun falls in this category.

Population II stars tend to be less luminous found in the nucleus of the galaxy.

They are less hot. They are poor in heavy metals because they are old.

A miniature quadcopter is located at x = -2.25 m and y, - 5.70 matt - 0 and moves with an average velocity having components Vv,

kupik [55]

Recall that average velocity is equal to change in position over a given time interval,

$\vec v_{\rm ave} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec r}{\Delta t}$

so that the x-component of $\vec v_{\rm ave}$ is

$\dfrac{x_2 - (-2.25\,\mathrm m)}{1.60\,\mathrm s} = 2.70\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

and its y-component is

$\dfrac{y_2 - 5.70\,\mathrm m}{1.60\,\mathrm s} = -2.50\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

Solve for $x_2$ and $y_2$ , which are the x- and y-components of the copter's position vector after t = 1.60 s.

$x_2 = -2.25\,\mathrm m + \left(2.70\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(1.60\,\mathrm s) \implies \boxed{x_2 = 2.07\,\mathrm m}$

$y_2 = 5.70\,\mathrm m + \left(-2.50\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(1.60\,\mathrm s) \implies \boxed{y_2 = 1.70\,\mathrm m}$

Note that I'm reading the given details as

$x_1 = -2.25\,\mathrm m \\\\ y_1 = -5.70\,\mathrm m \\\\ v_x = 2.70\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\\\\ v_y=-2.50\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

so if any of these are incorrect, you should make the appropriate adjustments to the work above.

Jon's bathtub is rectangular and its base is 18 ft2. (a) How fast is the water level rising if Jon is filling the tub at a rate

Kitty [74]

Answer:

The water level in the bath tub is rising at a rate of 0.0111 ft/s

Explanation:

Volume of the bath tub = (Area of base) × (height)

Area of base = 18 ft² (constant)

Height = h (variable)

V = 18h

(dV/dt) = 18 (dh/dt)

If (dV/dt) = 0.2 ft³/s

0.2 = 18 (dh/dt)

(dh/dt) = (0.2/18)

(dh/dt) = 0.0111 ft/s

Hope this Helps!!!

At room temperature, sound travels at a speed of about 344 m/s in air. You see a distant flash of lightning and hear the thunder

beks73 [17]

Answer:

$d=1.67mi$

Explanation:

Assuming the light takes essentially no time to reach you, the distance at which the lightning occurred can be calculated by multiplying the speed of sound by the time it takes to hear the thunder:

$d=v_st\\d=344\frac{m}{s}(7.8s)\\d=2683.2m*\frac{1mi}{1609.34m}=1.67mi$
