Answer:
Well the definition of an application is the act of putting to a special use or purpose so lam assuming that you want specific uses that scientists make of gravity in their work.
Well our first application has helped us to send satellites around the solar system with what Nasa calls gravity assist. Using a particular planets gravity to slingshot a satellite to another destination. Look it up.
The next application much simpler but here on Earth. There are many hydro-electric power stations in use all over the world. Water is stored at a high level and released falling 100s of metres to a turbine where it generates electricity.
Hope that helps.
Explanation:
Answer:he formula for average speed is (total distance/total time)
the y-component does not matter in this problem. so do 6.26(cos45)=4.43m/s to find the x-component velocity which is constant throughout the duration of the flight. the total distance is 2L because he travels distance L twice.
the total time is ((time in water)+(time out of water)) since you dont have time you must eliminate it. to do this you need (distance)/(time)=velocity
solve for time and you get T=D/V
time in water is L/3.52 and time out of water is L/4.43
add them together and you get (4.43L+3.52L)/(15.59) = 7.95L/15.59
that value is your total time
divide you total distance (2L) by total time (7.95L/15.59) and the Ls cancel out and you get
(31.18)/(7.95) = 3.92 m/s = Average Speed

Answer:
over harvesting, pollution, introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors
Explanation:
The main cause of mass extinction is Humans cause extinction of a species through overharvesting. The second main cause is pollution ., introduction of invasive species such as new predators and food competitors, habitat destruction, overhunting and other influences. Another very important cause of mass extinction is the unsustainable human population growth.
The five mass extinction events are
Ordovician Mass Extinction
Devonian Mass Extinction
Permian Mass Extinction
Triassic -Jurassic Mass Extinction
and Cretaceous -Tertiary (or the K-T) Mass Extinction.
This question is checking to see whether you understand the meaning
of "displacement".
Displacement is a vector:
-- Its magnitude (size) is the distance between the start-point and
the end-point, no matter what route might have been followed along
the way.
-- Its direction is the direction from the start-point to the end-point.
Talking about the Earth's orbit around the sun, we can forget about
the direction of the displacement, and just talk about its magnitude
(size).
If we pretend that the sun is not moving and dragging the whole
solar system along with it, then what do we see the Earth doing
in one year ?
We mark the place where the Earth is at the stroke of midnight
on New Year's Eve. Then we watch it as it swings around through
this gigantic orbit, all the way around the sun, and in a year, it's back
to the same point that we marked !
So what's the magnitude of the displacement in exactly one year ?
It's the distance between the start-point and the end-point. But the
Earth came back to the same place it started from, so there's no
separation at all between the start-point and the end-point.
The Earth covered a huge distance in that year, but the displacement
is zero.
Answer:
-1486 KJ
Explanation:
The work done by an electric field on a charged body is:
W = ΔV * q
where ΔV = change in voltage
q = total charge
The total charge of Avogadro's number of electrons is:
6.0221409 * 10^(23) * -1.6023 * 10^(-19) = -9.65 * 10^(4)
The change in voltage, ΔV, is:
9.20 - (6.90) = 15.4
Therefore, the work done is:
W = -9.65 * 10^(4) * 15.4 = -1.486 * 10^6 J = -1486 KJ
The negative sign means that the motion of the electrons is opposite the electrostatic force.
