Crank3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

D. 15 m/s downward

Explanation:

v = at + v₀

v = (-9.8 m/s²) (1.5 s) + (0 m/s)

v = -14.7 m/s

Rounded to two significant figures, the answer is D, 15 m/s downward.

Spaceship 1 and spaceship 2 have equal masses of 200 kg. Spaceship 1 has a speed of 0 m/s, and spaceship 2 has a speed of 10 m/s
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

2000 kg m/s

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is a vector quantity whose magnitude is given by

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

and its direction is the same as the velocity.

In this problem, we have:

- Spaceship 1 has

m = 200 kg (mass)

v = 0 m/s (zero velocity)

So its momentum is

p_1 =(200)(0)=0

- Spaceship 2 has

m = 200 kg (mass)

v = 10 m/s (velocity)

So its momentum is

p_2=(200)(10)=2000 kg m/s

Therefore, the combined momentum of the two spaceships is

p=p_1+p_2=0+2000=2000 kg m/s

What would happen if a proton were added to the nucleus of the atom? (Check all that apply)
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

It would become a different element.

Explanation:

When you change the number of protons i.e, add a proton in the nucleus of an atom, you will change the atom from one element to a different element and also positive charge of the atom also increased by 1.

For example, adding a proton to the nucleus of an atom of hydrogen creates an atom of helium.

So, we conclude that by adding a proton the atom will change from one element to another element.

Suppose that a baseball is tossed up into the air at an initial velocity 1818​​\text{ m/s} m/s​. The height of the baseball at t
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

13.1 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a baseball is tossed up into the air at an initial velocity 18 m/s​. The height of the baseball at time t​ in seconds is given by h(t) = 18t−4.9t 2 ​​​​​ (in meters).

a) What is the average velocity for [1,1.5]​?

To calculate the velocity travelled by the ball, differentiate the function.

dh/dt = 18 - 9.8t

Substitute t for 1 in the above Differential function

dh/dt = 18 - 9.8 (1)

But dh/dt = velocity

V = 18 - 9.8

V = 8.2 m/s

Average velocity = ( U + V ) / 2

Average velocity = (18 + 8.2)/2

Average velocity = 26.2/2

Average velocity = 13.1 m/s

As the earth rotates through one revolution, a person standing on the equator traces out a circular path whose radius is equal t
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

The average speed will be "1038 mph".

Explanation:

Period for one revolution is:

T = 24 hours

  = 86,400 sec

x = c = 2πr

The given values is:

r = 6.38×10⁶ m

Now,

⇒  T=\frac{2 \pi r}{v}

Or,

⇒  v=\frac{2 \pi r}{T}

On substituting the values, we get

       =\frac{2 \pi (6.38\times 10^6)}{86,400}

       =464 \ min/sec

       =(464 \frac{min}{sec}) (\frac{3600 \ sec}{1 \ hour} )(\frac{1 \ mi}{1609 \ m} )

       =1038 \ mph
