Give two examples where we feel the presence of motion through indirect evidences

Physics
1 answer:
Elza [17]3 years ago
8 0

there are situations where the motion is inferred through indirect evidences. For example, we infer the motion of air by observing the movement of dust and the movement of leaves and branches of trees. What causes the phenomena of sunrise, sunset and changing of seasons? Is it due to the motion of the earth? If it is true, why don’t we directly perceive the motion of the earth?

<span>An object may appear to be moving for one person and stationary for some other. For the passengers in a moving bus, the roadside trees appear to be moving backwards. A person standing on the road–side perceives the bus along with the passengers as moving. However, a passenger inside the bus sees his fellow passengers to be at rest</span>

Explanation:

Momentum is mass times speed.

p = mv

a) p = (1500 kg) (25.0 m/s) = 37,500 kg m/s

b) p = (40,000 kg) (1.00 m/s) = 40,000 kg m/s

The truck has more linear momentum.

Momentum in the y direction:

pᵧ = (1500 kg) (25.0 m/s) = 37,500 kg m/s

Momentum in the x direction:

pₓ = (1500 kg) (15.0 m/s) = 22,500 kg m/s

Total linear momentum:

p² = pₓ² + pᵧ²

p² = (22,500 kg m/s)² + (37,500 kg m/s)²

p = 43,700 kg m/s

Is kinetic energy conserved in an elastic collision.
baherus [9]

An elastic collision is a collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision. Both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved quantities in elastic collisions. ... They collide, bouncing off each other with no loss in speed.

Ferdinand the frog is hopping from lily pad to lily pad in search of a good fly
loris [4]

Answer: 36.86\°

Explanation:

According to the described situation we have the following data:

Horizontal distance between lily pads: d=2.4 m

Ferdinand's initial velocity: V_{o}=5 m/s

Time it takes a jump: t=0.6 s

We need to find the angle \theta at which Ferdinand jumps.

In order to do this, we first have to find the <u>horizontal component (or x-component)</u> of this initial velocity. Since we are dealing with parabolic movement, where velocity has x-component and y-component, and in this case we will choose the x-component to find the angle:

V_{x}=\frac{d}{t} (1)

V_{x}=\frac{2.4 m}{0.6 s} (2)

V_{x}=4 m/s (3)

On the other hand, the x-component of the velocity is expressed as:

V_{x}=V_{o}cos\theta (4)

Substituting (3) in (4):

4 m/s=5 m/s cos\theta (5)

Clearing \theta:

\theta=cos^{-1} (\frac{4 m/s}{5 m/s})

\theta=36.86\° This is the angle at which Ferdinand the frog jumps between lily pads

Why does a lunar eclipse last for a few hours whereas a solar eclipse only lasts for a few minutes?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The type and length of a lunar eclipse depend on the Moon's proximity to either node of its orbit. ... A total lunar eclipse can last up to nearly 2 hours, while a total solar eclipse lasts only up to a few minutes at any given place, due to the smaller size of the Moon's shadow.
