Answer:

U = - G m M / r

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy is given by the expression

         U = - G m₁ m₂ / r

dodne G is the gravitational cosntnate (G = 6.67 10⁻¹¹¹), m and m are the mass of the bodies involved

subtype the given values

         U = - G m M / r

A car is moving in the positive direction along a straight highway and accelerates at a constant rate while going from point A t
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The time where the avergae speed equals the instaneous speed is T/2

Explanation:

The velocity of the car is:

v(t) = v0 + at

Where v0 is the initial speed and a is the constant acceleration.

Let's find the average speed. This is given integrating the velocity from 0 to T and dividing by T:

v_{ave} = \frac{1}{T}\int\limits^T_0 {v(t)} \, dt

v_ave = v0+a(T/2)

We can esaily note that when <u><em>t=T/2</em></u><u><em> </em></u>

v(T/2)=v_ave

Now we want to know where the car should be, the osition of the car is:

x(t) = x_A + v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Where x_A is the position of point A. Therefore, the car will be at:

<u><em>x(T/2) = x_A + v_0 (T/2) + (1/8)aT^2</em></u>

An electric motor moves a chain that pulls the roller coaster car 180 meters to the top of the first hill. The chain exerts a fo
MrRa [10]
The energy added here is potential energy since it is moving upward 180 meters in a gravitational field.  This is then turned into KE when it rolls down.  2524N x 180m = 454,320J

Having just enough weight to achieve all three states of buoyancy with only minor adjustments in the water is the definition of:
eduard

Answer:

Proper weighting

Explanation:

Proper weighing involves the condition of a scuba diver that is fully geared having a near empty tank and the BCD emptied with a held breadth is expected to float at eye level

The fundamental of adequate or good buoyancy of a scuba diver is to ensure proper weighting when diving, With proper weighting, there is more control for the diver when a safety stop is required. There is less need to carry excess weight that increases drag and gas consumption.

I have multiple questions!
UNO [17]

I'm not sure about the rest but for question 2:

A theory is an attempt to come up with a big picture of all we know so far. It also drives future research as people do experiments to see if what the theory predicts actually happens. When experiments don’t support the theory, you have to change the theory and try again. That’s how science works. We come up with a “best guess” (theory), and then do research to test it’s accuracy. As we discover contradictions, we adjust the theory to take those into account, and then start testing the validity of the new theory.
