Known data:

time=4,2s

Earth's acceleration:9.8m/s²

Formulas needed:

t=v÷g

S=vt+(gt²)÷2

Solution:

t=v÷g

4,2=v÷9,8

v=9,8×4,2

v=41,16m/s

S=vt+(gt²)÷2

S=41,16×4,2-9.8×(4,2)²÷2

S=86.436m

____ is the detection of halo objects like brown dwarfs when their gravitational fields concentrate the light of distant sources
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Microlensing.

Explanation:

This techniques is called Microlensing.

Microlensing is a method of gravitational lensing where light from a backdrop point of origin is curved to develop distorted, numerous and/or lightened images by the gravity field of a foreground lens.

This method is very effective in discovering planets that are far-far from earth.It is actually an astronomical effect that was predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

h = height of the hotel room from the ground floor = 237.4m

Explanation:

Change in Potential Energy of tourist = ΔPE = PE2 – PE1 = mgh

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the ground floor

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the top (hotel room)

Given

PE1 = − 2.01 × 10⁵ J

PE2 = 0J

PE2 – PE1 = mgh

0 – (− 2.01 × 10⁵ J) = mgh

2.01 × 10⁵ J = 86.4×9.8×h

h = 2.01 × 10⁵/(86.4×9.8) = 237.4m

A speed boat moving at a velocity of 25 m/s runs out of gas and drifts to a stop 3 minutes later 100 meters away. What is its ra
mr_godi [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The rate of deceleration is -0.14m/s^{2}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Using one of the equations of motion;

v = u + at

where;

v = final velocity of the boat = 0m/s (since the boat decelerates to a stop)

u = initial velocity of the boat = 25m/s

a = acceleration of the boat

t = time taken for the boat to accelerate/decelerate from u to v =   3 minutes

<em>Convert the time t = 3 minutes to seconds;</em>

=> 3 minutes = 3 x 60 seconds = 180seconds.

<em>Substitute the values of v, u, t into the equation above. We have;</em>

v =  u + at

=> 0 = 25 + a(180)

=> 0 = 25 + 180a

<em>Make a the subject of the formula;</em>

=> 180a = 0 - 25

=> 180a = -25

=> a = -25/180

=> a = -0.14m/s^{2}

The negative value of a shows that the boat is decelerating.

Therefore, the rate of deceleration of the speed boat is 0.14m/s^{2}

Calcular la rapidez promedio
Vlada [557]

Answer:

  v_average = 15 m / s

Explanation:

The average speed can be found in two ways,

* taking the distance traveled and divide it by the time spent

* taking the velocities in each time interval and then finding the weighted average by the time fraction

              v_average = 1 / t_total ∑  v_{i}  t_{i}vi ti

Let's apply this last equation

               

Total time is

               t = t₁ + t₂

               t = 10 + 10 = 20   min

              v_average = 10/20 10 + 10/20 20

              v_average = 10/2 + 20/2

              v_average = 15 m / s

Ashley squirrel, named Jackie, rides on a bicycle with a constant kinetic energy of 3.6J. The mass of combination of Jackie and
yKpoI14uk [10]

The velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle is 3.328 m/s.

Explanation:

From the given data the constant kinetic energy is 3.6 J. The mass of combination is 0.65 kg. To find the velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle the formula  is

KE = 0.5 x mv2.

To find velocity,

V2=ke/(0.5×m)

V=\sqrt{(ke/(0.5*m)

v= 3.6/(0.5×0.65)

=\sqrt (11077/10)/10

v= 3.328 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the combination of Jackie and the bicycle is 3.328m/s.
