Answer:

112m/s

Explanation:

14x8=112 therefore meaning the zebra would run 112m/s

A zebra runs across a field at a constant speed of 14 m/s. The zebra would run 112 m in 8 seconds.

Explanation: 

According to Kinematics, the distance travelled is given by the product of speed and time. Here, the speed given as 14 m/s, and time is 8 seconds. Now, the equation is as follows,

$\text {velocity} = \frac{\text {distance}(s)}{\text {time}(t)}$

The required term to find as per the question is distance, so rearranging the above equation, we get,

$s = v e l o c i t y \times t$

By substituting the given values, we get, how much distance the zebra can run in time period of 8 seconds as,

Distance, $s = 14 \times 8 = 112 m$

What is the orbital period of a spacecraft in a low orbit near the surface of mars? The radius of mars is 3.4×106m.

valkas [14]

<h2>Answer: 56.718 min</h2>

Explanation:

According to the Third Kepler’s Law of Planetary motion “The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.

In other words, this law states a relation between the orbital period $T$ of a body (moon, planet, satellite) orbiting a greater body in space with the size $a$ of its orbit.

This Law is originally expressed as follows:

$T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}$ (1)

Where;

$G$ is the Gravitational Constant and its value is $6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$

$M=6.39(10)^{23}kg$ is the mass of Mars

$a=3.4(10)^{6}m$ is the semimajor axis of the orbit the spacecraft describes around Mars (assuming it is a circular orbit and a low orbit near the surface as well, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit)

If we want to find the period, we have to express equation (1) as written below and substitute all the values:

$T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}}$ (2)

$T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^{2}}{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(6.39(10)^{23}kg)}(3.4(10)^{6}m)^{3}}$ (3)

$T=\sqrt{11581157.44 s^{2}}$ (4)

Finally:

$T=3403.1099s=56.718min$ This is the orbital period of a spacecraft in a low orbit near the surface of mars

Which of these is a mixture?

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Air is a mixture.

Explanation:

Air is a homogeneous mixture. It is made up of gaseous substances such as nitrogen, oxygen, and smaller amounts of others.

Carbon dioxide is a pure substance, not a mixture.

Carbon is another pure substance, it cannot be separated into other substances.

Oxygen is just oxygen, it does not contain any other substance.

a 700k/g race car slowed down from 30m/s to 15m/s what is the impulse and what was the average force applied by the brakes

posledela

So impulse is a change in momentum.

Mass*(final velocity - initial velocity)

I dont think you will be able to find the average force with the given info because you need to know the time it takes for the car to slow down.

Which choice correctly describes what happens during heating?

Masja [62]

Answer:

Option 4

Explanation:

During heating actually heat transfer takes place from a body at higher temperature to a body at lower temperature and the heat transfer takes place until both attain the same temperature

Therefore heat transfer depends on the temperature of the systems

Now while comparing the thermal energies of the systems, if both the systems have same mass then the system which is at higher temperature has greater thermal energy when compared to the system which is at lower temperature

So in this case assuming that both the systems have same mass then the energy will leave the system with greater thermal energy and go into the system with less thermal energy as the system with greater thermal energy in this case will be at higher temperature and we are considering this assumption because thermal energy not only depends on temperature but also depends on mass of the system
