An acorn falls from a branch located 9.8 m above the ground. After 1 s of falling, the acorn's velocity will be 9.8 m/s downward

. Why hasn't the acorn hit the ground?

Answer:

The acorn hasn't hit the ground because it only falsl half of the branch distance from the ground

Explanation:

given information:

h =9.8

t =1 s

g = 9.8

the average speed

v = 1/2 gt²

   = 1/2 (9.8) (1)²

   = 4.8 m/s

the distance in 1s

h = v t

   = 4.8 (1)

   = 4.8 m

the acorn hasn't hit the ground because it only falsl half of the branch distance from the ground

   =

Plaskett's binary system consists of two stars that revolve in a circular orbit about a center of mass midway between them. This
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1.554\times 10^{32}\ \text{kg}

Explanation:

M = Mass of each star

T = Time period = 15.5 days

v = Orbital velocity = 230 km/s

G = Gravitational constant = 6.674\times 10^{-11}\ \text{Nm}^2/\text{kg}^2

Radius of orbit is given by

R=\dfrac{vT}{2\pi}

We have the relation

\dfrac{Mv^2}{R}=\dfrac{GM^2}{(2R)^2}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{4Rv^2}{G}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{4\dfrac{vT}{2\pi}v^2}{G}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{2v^3T}{\pi G}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{2\times 230000^3\times 15.5\times 24\times 60\times 60}{\pi\times 6.674\times 10^{-11}}\\\Rightarrow M=1.554\times 10^{32}\ \text{kg}

The mass of each star is 1.554\times 10^{32}\ \text{kg}

An airplane flies between two points on the ground that are 500 km apart. The destination is directly north of the origination o
Ann [662]

Answer:

   θ = 4.78º

with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the east - north

Explanation:

This is a velocity compound exercise since it is a vector quantity.

The plane takes a direction, the air blows to the west and the result must be to the north, let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the speed

                  v_fly² = v_nort² + v_air²

                  v_nort² = v_fly² + - v_air²

Let's use trigonometry to find the direction of the plane

        sin θ = v_air / v_fly

        θ = sin⁻¹ (v_air / v_fly)

         

let's calculate

        θ = sin⁻¹ (10/120)

         θ = 4.78º

with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the north-east

What is the velocity if your going 105 miles every 10 minutes
Afina-wow [57]
The speed is 10.5 miles per minute, or 630 miles per hour.
We don't know the velocity, because you didn't tell us anything about the direction I'm going.
