The moon revolves around earth at a fairly constant speed.Is the moon accelerating

Physics
1 answer:
inysia [295]3 years ago

<span>If the moon changes direction, it's because it is orbiting around the earth, and the moon  keeps a constant speed. And when the moon turns, it accelerates due to velocity. So yes, the moon accelerates. </span>

Precision measurements of the acceleration due to gravity show that the acceleration is slightly different in different location
DochEvi [55]
Gravity largely depends on the comparison of two objects; it's why you have the equation F= (GMm)/r^2. On Earth, you have different altitudes that, with the formula, will give different results for gravity because the radius is different everywhere. This difference on calculations, however, are seen to be miniscule. We know gravity as 9.81 m/s^2 but it might be different by thousandths or hundreds of thousandths of a decimal.

Water is used to cool down automobile engines when they get hot. Why is water used as a coolant? A. Water is a good conductor. B
Mrac [35]

Water is usually used to cool down automobile engines when they get hot, yes. Therefore, that means water has a high heat capacity.

That makes the answer letter D you provided above.

D) Water has a high heat capacity.

Another example would be trying to put out a fire with a bucket of water. Usually, you can put out the fire debating on the size!

An attack helicopter is equipped with a 20- mm cannon that fires 88.7 g shells in the forward direction with a muzzle speed of 9
Svetradugi [14.3K]
The impulse imparted to the shells equals the change in the momentum:
Fav*(Delta t)= Delta m*v.
The mass change is
Delta m= n*m= (89.9shells)*(88.7g)=7.97Kg
So the average force is
F=((v)*(Delta m))/t= ((929)*(7.97))/4.84=1529.78 N
Since the velocity of the shells is much greater than the velocity of the helicopter, there is no need to use relative velocity.
