Answer:
Use of telemetry and radar astronomy
Explanation:
An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.
After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.
The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.
A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured, once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using
distance = speed X time.
However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors
Complete question is;
A rocket ship starts from rest and turns on its forward booster rockets, causing it to have a constant acceleration of 4 m/s² rightward. After 3s, what will be the velocity of the rocket ship?
Answer:
v = 12 m/s
Explanation:
We are given;
Initial velocity; u = 0 m/s (because ship starts from rest)
Acceleration; a = 4 m/s²
Time; t = 3 s
To find velocity after 3 s, we will use Newton's first equation of motion;
v = u + at
v = 0 + (4 × 3)
v = 12 m/s
Answer:
All three pendulum will attain same velocity
Explanation:
All three pendulum will attain same velocity irrespective of their mass difference in isolated system (means where air drag are negligible) and at same length
As you know when velocity is calculated we can not take mass into account.
To calculate the number of sig figs
1. Count ALL nonzero numbers
2. If the zero is between 2 numbers, count it
3. If in a decimal the zero is at the end, count it
4. In a decimal all the zeros before the first nonzero number are placeholders and don't count them
5. In a number greater than zero all zeros AFTER the last nonzero number are placeholders and don't count them.
A - 5
B - 2
C - 3
D - 1
E - 4
Answer:
By Applying pressure to the brakes
Explanation:
Driving cars through deep water that is more than 10cm can make the cars to float. Most modern cars are usually water- tight so they can start to float through water that is about 30cm deep, fast moving water is very powerful so one needs to be very careful when driving.
If the brakes are wet test them by pressing or tapping on them gently.
You can as well dry brakes by driving in low gear and applying pressure to the brakes.
