1. How is it possible to use pools to model apparent weightlessness, similar to what astronauts

Physics
1 answer:
SashulF [63]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

by using it's buoyant or floating effect by Archimedes.

the buoyant force act on the astronauts body and make he/ she feels like in low gravity.

the buoyant force equation is

F = Density of liquid x earth gravitational field x volume of astronauts body and suit.

the Weight of astronauts in the pools will be less than in the land or air.

Weight in water = weight in air/land - buoyant force

so the astronauts will feel like in the outer space with low gravity.

horizontal force pushes block up a 20.0 incline with an initial speed 12.0 m//s. a) how high up the plane does slide before comi
Annette [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy .

initial kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x m x 12 x 12

= 72 m

This energy will be spent to store potential energy . if h be the height attained

potential energy = mgh , h is vertical height attined by block

= mg l sin20  where l is length up the inclined plane  

for conservation of mechanical energy

initial kinetic energy  = potential energy

72 m = mg l sin20

l = 72 /  g  sin20

= 21.5 m

deceleration on inclined plane = g sin20

= 3.35 m /s²

v = u - at

t = v - u / a

= (12 - 0) / 3.35

= 3.58 s

it will take the same time to come back . total time taken to reach original point = 2 x 3.58

= 7.16 s

Use the concepts of kinetic energy and potential energy to describe the motion of a child on a swing. Why does the child need a
andrew-mc [135]
When the child is moving, he/she has kinetic energy. For just a brief second before they move the other way, the child is not moving, but they have gravitational potential energy.

The child may need a push from time to time because friction with the air causes loss of energy.

Why can we hear sound around a corner but not see light
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Sound waves that we can hear have much longer wavelengths than do light waves. As a result, the diffraction of sound waves around a corner is noticeable and we can hear the sound in the “shadow region,” but the diffraction of light waves around a corner is not noticeable.

Estimate and determine the order of magnitude of the circumference of the Earth in miles and the speed of a sailboat in miles pe
solmaris [256]

Answer:

= 1000 hours

Explanation:

Earth's circumference is 10⁴ mile

speed of a sailboat is 10¹ mile/hour

distance = speed × time

10⁴ = 10¹  × t

t = 10⁴ / 10¹

t = 10³

= 1000 hours
