Answer:

travels along a curve due to uniform gravity

Explanation:

General relativity

The theory was developed by Albert Einstein , it is the theory of gravitation , according to which , the gravitation effect which is observed between the masses , is the resultant of their warping of the space time .

In general relativity , the equivalence principle is the equivalence of inertial gravitational mass .

According to which , the light bends due to gravitational forces ,therefore , the light travels along a curve because of uniform gravity .

Why is it important for a muscle to be attached to a fixed origin at one end and a moving insertion at the other? Discuss how th

vlabodo [156]

Muscles function only by contracting. This makes it necessary for one end of the muscle to be fixed and the other mobile.
Take the bicep for example.
Its origin is at the shoulder and its two heads connect to the bones of the forearm, the radius and ulna.
Now, had the muscle not been fixed at one end, and contracted, it would pull both our shoulder and forearm together resulting in an ineffective movement. The desired motion is to lift the forearm (proximal and distal movement) which can only be achieved if the bicep is fixed at the shoulder and allowed to move at the forearm.

A supertanker filled with oil has a total mass of 6.1 x108 kg. If the dimensions of the ship are those of a rectangular box 300

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The bottom of the sea is 25 m below sea level.

Explanation:

Given data

Mass = 6.1 × $10^{8} \ kg$

$\rho_{sea} = 1020\ \frac{kg}{m^{3} }$

We know that Buoyant force on the tank is equal to gravity force of the tank.

$F_B = F_g$

$(\rho_{Fluid}) (g) (V_{disp}) = m g$

$(\rho_{Fluid}) (V_{disp}) = m$

1020 × $V_{disp}$ = 6.1 × $10^{8}$

$V_{disp}$ = 598039.21 $m^{3}$

We know that

$V_{disp}$ = W × L × H

598039.21 = 300 × 80 × H

H = 25 m

Therefore the bottom of the sea is 25 m below sea level.

A 0.500 H inductor is connected in series with a 93 Ω resistor and an ac source. The voltage across the inductor is V = −(11.0V)

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

205 V

V $_{R}$ = 2.05 V

Explanation:

L = Inductance in Henries, (H) = 0.500 H

resistor is of 93 Ω so R = 93 Ω

The voltage across the inductor is

$V_{L} = - IwLsin(wt)$

w = 500 rad/s

IwL = 11.0 V

Current:

I = 11.0 V / wL

= 11.0 V / 500 rad/s (0.500 H)

= 11.0 / 250

I = 0.044 A

Now

V $_{R}$ = IR

= (0.044 A) (93 Ω)

V $_{R}$ = 4.092 V

Deriving formula for voltage across the resistor

The derivative of sin is cos

V $_{R}$ = V $_{R}$ cos (wt)

Putting V $_{R}$ = 4.092 V and w = 500 rad/s

V $_{R}$ = V $_{R}$ cos (wt)

= (4.092 V) (cos(500 rad/s )t)

So the voltage across the resistor at 2.09 x 10-3 s is which means

t = 2.09 x 10⁻³

V $_{R}$ = (4.092 V) (cos (500 rads/s)(2.09 x 10⁻³s))

= (4.092 V) (cos (500 rads/s)(0.00209))

= (4.092 V) (cos(1.045))

= (4.092 V)(0.501902)

= 2.053783

V $_{R}$ = 2.05 V

The first law states that “objects at rest and objects in motion remain in motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force”. Keeping the ice smooth will make sure there is not friction, friction would slow the puck down
