Momentum = mass • velocity
M = m • v
Speed is a scalar quantity
Velocity is a vector quantity
That is truly the only difference
Answer: Option <em>a.</em>
Explanation:
Kepler's 2nd law of planetary motion states:
<em>A line segment joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time.</em>
It tells us that it doesn't matter how far Earth is from the Sun, at equal times, the area swept out by Earth's orbit it's always the same independently from the position in the orbit.
-- 400 nm shifted to 430 nm . . . longer than it should be; "red shifted"; moving away from Earth
-- 610 nm shifted to 580 nm . . . shorter than at source; "blue shifted"; moving toward Earth
-- 512 nm shifted to 480 nm . . . shorter than at source; moving toward Earth
-- 670 nm shifted to 690 nm . . .longer than at source; moving away from Earth
Now I'd just like to ask one more itty bitty question, that you can think about while you're on this subject: Astronomers really do this. They measure how much the wavelength CHANGED, from the time it left the original source until the time they detect it. But HOW do they know what the wavelength WAS when it left the source ? ? ?
THIS is the part that blows my mind !
True
1 newton of force is the force required to accelerate an object with a mass of 1 kilogram 1 meter per second each second.
Answer:
The time taken to travel is, t = 12 minutes
Explanation:
Given data,
The speed of the car, v = 60 km/h
The distance of travel, d = 12 km
The time taken for the travel is t = ?
The speed is defined as the distance divided by the time taken to travel. The formula for speed is,
v = d/t
∴ t = d/v
t = 12 km / 60 km/h
t = 0.2 h
t = 12 minutes
Hence, the time taken to travel is, t = 12 minutes.
