Answer:

The answer is actually A: celestial

Explanation:

The answer is not azimuth-altitude because using that system means that the coordinates change with your geographic location. With celestial, you can coordinate the object's location using right ascension and declination no matter what latitude you are standing at.

Answer : Celestial or azimuth - altitude

Explanation :  

Celestial : The celestial coordinates that are analogous to longitude and latitude are called RA and Dec.

RA = Right Ascension

Dec = Declination

RA is the measured in unit of time and Dec is measured in degree.

The equatorial coordinate system is the projection of the latitude and longitude coordinate system on the celestial sphere.

Azimuth - altitude :  Azimuth - altitude define the location of an object in the sky.

The altitude is the distance of an object appears to be above the horizon.

The Azimuth of the object is the angular distance  along the horizon to the location of the object.

A 70.0-kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, catches a 0.150-kg hockey puck slapped at him at a velocity of 35.0 m/s. Suppos
brilliants [131]

Answer:

v₂=- 34 .85 m/s

v₁=0.14 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

m₁=70 kg ,u₁=0 m/s

m₂=0.15 kg ,u₂=35 m/s

Given that collision is elastic .We know that for elastic  collision

Lets take their final speed is v₁ and v₂

From momentum conservation

m₁u₁+m₂u₂=m₁v₁+m₂v₂

70 x 0+ 0.15 x 35 = 70 x v₁ + 0.15 x v₂

70 x v₁ + 0.15 x v₂=5.25                   --------1

v₂-v₁=u₁-u₂            ( e= 1)

v₂-v₁ = -35        --------2

By solving above equations

v₂=- 34 .85 m/s

v₁=0.14 m/s

How do fluids excert pressure​
Artyom0805 [142]

All fluids exert pressure like the air inside a tire. The particles of fluids are constantly moving in all directions at random. As the particles move, they keep bumping into each other and into anything else in their path. These collisions cause pressure, and the pressure is exerted equally in all directions.

Why is the answer B?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The center of mass lies on a line that joins position 4 of one start with position 4 of the other star.  The shortest distance between these two points will produce the largest velocity. You are using F = m v^2/R

Small R = large force.

Large Force = increased speed.

The masses don't have any effect on the outcome: they remain constant.

A child on a tricycle is moving at a speed of 1.40 m/s at the start of a 2.25 m high and 12.4 m long incline. The total mass is
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The work done by the child as the tricycle travels down the incline is 416.96 J

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the child, v_i = 1.4 m/s

final velocity of the child, v_f = 6.5 m/s

initial height of the inclined plane, h = 2.25 m

length of the inclined plane, L = 12.4 m

total mass, m = 48 kg

frictional force, f_k = 41 N

The work done by the child is calculated as;

\Delta E_{mech} = W - f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \Delta E_{mech}  + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = (K.E_f - K.E_i) + (P.E_f - P.E_i) + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \frac{1}{2} m(v_f^2 - v_i^2) + mg(h_f - h_i) + f_{k} \Delta L\\\\W = \frac{1}{2} \times 48(6.5^2 - 1.4^2) + 48\times 9.8(0-2.25) + (41\times 12.4)\\\\W = 966.96  \ - \ 1058.4 \ + \ 508.4\\\\W = 416.96 \ J

Therefore, the work done by the child as the tricycle travels down the incline is 416.96 J

What is the mechanical advantage of the wheel and axle shown below?
BigorU [14]

The correct answer is A. 32.5

Mechanical advantage is the ratio of force that is input into a machine to the force output.

Mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is calculated by dividing the radius of the wheel by that of the axle.

MA=R/r where R is the radius of the wheel and  r is the radius of the axle.

Substituting for the values in the question gives:

MA=26cm/0.8cm

    =32.5
