Answer:

All electromagnetic radiation, regardless of its wavelength, travels at what is called the "speed of light". In a vacuum, it is measured as 299,792,458 meters per second. 3.0 x 108 meters per second.

A ball of mass M is suspended by a thin string (of negligible mass) from the ceiling of an elevator.uploaded image
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

(a) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a higher floor.  T > mg

(b) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is increasing as it begins its journey towards a higher floor. T > mg

(c) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a lower floor. T < mg

(d) The elevator is traveling downward at a constant velocity. T = mg

(e) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is increasing. T < mg

(f) The elevator is stationary and remains at rest. T = mg

Explanation:

To answer this question, consider all the forces acting on the elevator.

The mass of the ball acting downwards due to gravity = mg

The tension on the string depends on upward or downwards force on the ball. T = m(a+g)

where a is acceleration and increase in velocity causes increase in acceleration, and vice versa. (a = v/t)

(a) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a higher floor.

If the upward velocity is decreasing, its acceleration is also decreasing, and acceleration is not equal to Zero

T = m(a+g) > mg

(b) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is increasing as it begins its journey towards a higher floor.

If the upward velocity is increasing, its acceleration is also increasing.

Then, T = m(a+g) > mg

(c) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a lower floor.

If the downward velocity is decreasing, its acceleration is also decreasing, and acceleration is not equal to Zero

T = m(a-g) < mg

(d) The elevator is traveling downward at a constant velocity

At constant velocity, acceleration is zero, because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

T = m(0+g) = mg

(e) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is increasing

If the downward velocity is increasing, its acceleration is also increasing

T = m(a-g) < mg

(f) The elevator is stationary and remains at rest.

if the elevator is at rest, its acceleration is zero

T = m(0+g) = mg

12345 [234]

The sun is the center of the solar system which is surrounded by the nine planets and they tend to orbit the sun in concentric circles with the sun as the center.

<h3>What is the solar system?</h3>

The term solar system has to do with the arrangement of the sun and the planets. The sun lies at the focus of the solar system. Now we know that there are nine planets that orbit around the sun. The distance between the planets and the sun depends on their relative proximity to each other.

Thus, the sun is the center of the solar system which is surrounded by the nine planets and they tend to orbit the sun in concentric circles with the sun as the center.

It took a crew 9 h 36 min to row 8 km upstream and back again. If the rate of flow of the stream was 2 km/h, what was the rowing
babunello [35]

Answer:

3 km/h

Explanation:

Let's call the rowing speed in still water x, in km/h.

Rowing speed in upstream is: x - 2 km/h

Rowing speed in downstream is: x + 2 km/h

It took a crew 9 h 36 min ( = 9 3/5 = 48/5) to row 8 km upstream and back again. Therefore:

8/(x - 2) + 8/(x + 2) = 48/5      (notice that: time = distance/speed)

Multiplying by x² - 2², which is equivalent to (x-2)*(x+2)

8*(x+2) + 8*(x-2) =  (48/5)*(x² - 4)

Dividing  by 8

(x+2) + (x-2) = (6/5)*(x² - 4)

2*x = (6/5)*x² - 24/5

0 =  (6/5)*x² - 2*x - 24/5

Using quadratic formula

x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{(-2)^2 - 4(6/5)(-24/5)}}{2(6/5)}

x = \frac{2 \pm 5.2}{2.4}

x_1 = \frac{2 + 5.2}{2.4}

x_1 = 3

x_2 = \frac{2 - 5.2}{2.4}

x_2 = -1\; 1/3

A negative result has no sense, therefore the rowing speed in still water was 3 km/h
