Great equation: distance = rate*time

So, distance run = 4.82 meters/second * 1.98 seconds = 9.5436 meters (round according to whatever the problem specifies, usually to the tenths or hundredths is sufficient).

This makes sense if you think about it since you are multiplying seconds with meters over seconds. The seconds cancel out, leaving you only the meters.

Answer:

4) Isaac Newton was the first scientist to propose the idea that gravity increases distance between objects decrease

Explanation:

1 - Kepler may have inspired most of Newton's propositions, but there is no record of collaborating on the theory of universal gravitation.

2 - The universal gravitation theory resemble the works of other great scientists, but Newton was indeed the first to propose this idea of gravitation

3 - On the contrary, these scientists have shared concepts, with differences in accuracy that supersede each other to be accepted by the community (i.e: Einstein being at the forefront despite sharing some ideas with Newton)

How long will it take a person walking at 2.1 m/s to travel 13 m?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

I gonna give you the number so but you need to round 6.19047619048

Explanation:

  • This is a speed formula so you would use the formula speed=distance/time
  • You need to rearrange it to time=distance/speed
  • So you need to divide 13m by 2.1 m/s

A block of ice is sliding down a ramp of slope 40 to the horizontal. What is the rate of acceleration of the block? Assume the f
uysha [10]

The given problem can be exemplified in the following diagram:

Since there is no friction or any other external force, the only force acting in the direction of the movement is the component of the weight of the block, therefore, applying Newton's second law:

\Sigma F=ma

Replacing the values:

mg\sin 40=ma

We may cancel out the mass:

g\sin 40=a

Using the gravity constant as 9.8 meters per square second:

9.8\frac{m}{s^2}\sin 40=a

Solving the operations:

6.3\frac{m}{s^2}=a

Therefore, the acceleration is 6.3 meters per square second.

B. the distance the star is from Earth

Explanation:

The apparent magnitude of star is a function of its distance from the earth. It is one of the physical properties that is used to study a star.

The apparent magnitude of a star or other astronomical bodies is a measure of their brightness as seen from a location on the earth.

The apparent magnitude of a star depends on:

  • Distance of the star from the location on earth.
  • luminosity of the star
  • the particles along the part of the star and earth that cuts off the light the earth receives.

A block with mass ma = 14.0 kg on a smooth horizontal surface is connected by a thin cord that passes over a pulley to a second
Drupady [299]
<span>We can assume that the horizontal surface has no friction and the pulley is massless. We can use Newton's second law to set up an equation. F = Ma F is the net force M is the total mass of the system a is the acceleration a = F / M a = (mb)(g) / (ma + mb) a = (6.0 kg)(9.80 m/s^2) / (6.0 kg + 14.0 kg) a = 58.8 N / 20 kg a = 2.94 m/s^2 The magnitude of the acceleration of the system is 2.94 m/s^2</span>
