Answer:

You can describe the motion of an object by its position, speed, direction, and acceleration. An object is moving if its position relative to a fixed point is changing. idk if this helps.

In physics, motion is the phenomenon in which an object changes its position over time. Motion is mathematically described in terms of displacement, distance, velocity, acceleration, speed, and time. The motion of a body is observed by attaching a frame of reference to an observer and measuring the change in position of the body relative to that frame with change in time. The branch of physics describing the motion of objects without reference to its cause is kinematics; the branch studying forces and their effect on motion is dynamics.

A 85-kg astronaut is stranded from his space shuttle. He throws a 1-kg hammer away from the shuttle with a velocity of 17 m/s. H

algol [13]

Answer:

0.2 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of astronaut, M = 85 Kg

mass of hammer, m = 1 Kg

velocity of hammer , v =17 m/s

speed of astronaut, v' = ?

initial speed of the astronaut and the hammer be equal to zero = ?

Using conservation of momentum

(M + m) V = M v' + m v

(M + m) x 0 = 85 x v' + 1 x 17

85 v' = -17

v' = -0.2 m/s

negative sign represent the astronaut is moving in opposite direction of hammer.

Hence, the speed of the astronaut is equal to 0.2 m/s

A cold beverage can be kept cold even a warm day if it is slipped into a porous ceramic container that has been soaked in water.

Arisa [49]

Answer:

The rate at which the container is losing water is 0.0006418 g/s.

Explanation:

Under the assumption that the can is a closed system, the conservation law applied to the system would be: $E_{in}-E_{out}=E_{change}$ , where $E_{in}$ is all energy entering the system, $E_{out}$ is the total energy leaving the system and, $E_{change}$ is the change of energy of the system.
As the purpose is to kept the beverage can at constant temperature, the change of energy ( $E_{change}$ ) would be 0.
The energy that goes into the system, is the heat transfer by radiation from the environment to the top and side surfaces of the can. This kind of transfer is described by: $Q=\varepsilon*\sigma*A_S*(T_{\infty}^4-T_S^4)$ where $\varepsilon$ is the emissivity of the surface, $\sigma=5.67*10^{-8}\frac{W}{m^2K}$ known as the Stefan–Boltzmann constant, $A_S$ is the total area of the exposed surface, $T_S$ is the temperature of the surface in Kelvin, $T_{\infty}$ is the environment temperature in Kelvin.
For the can the surface area would be ta sum of the top and the sides. The area of the top would be $A_{top}=\pi* r^2=\pi(0.0252m)^2=0.001995m^2$ , the area of the sides would be $A_{sides}=2*\pi*r*L=2*\pi*(0.0252m)*(0.09m)=0.01425m^2$ . Then the total area would be $A_{total}=A_{top}+A_{sides}=0.01624m^2$
Then the radiation heat transferred to the can would be $Q=\varepsilon*\sigma*A_S*(T_{\infty}^4-T_S^4)=1*5.67*10^{-8}\frac{W}{m^2K}*0.01624m^2*((32+273K)^4-(17+273K)^4)=1.456W$ .
The can would lost heat evaporating water, in this case would be $Q_{out}=\frac{dm}{dt}*h_{fg}$ , where $\frac{dm}{dt}$ is the rate of mass of water evaporated and, $h_{fg}$ is the heat of vaporization of the water ( $2257\frac{J}{g}$ ).
Then in the conservation balance: $Q_{in}-Q_{out}=Q_{change}$ , it would be $1.45W-\frac{dm}{dt}*2257\frac{j}{g}=0$ .
Recall that $1W=1\frac{J}{s}$ , then solving for $\frac{dm}{dt}$ : $\frac{dm}{dt}=\frac{1.45\frac{J}{s} }{2257\frac{J}{g} }=0.0006452\frac{g}{s}$

Jasmine is diving off a 3-meter springboard. her height in meters above the water when she is x meters horizontally from the end

olganol [36]

Answer:

5.25 m

Explanation:

Given;

The height equation h;

h=-x^2+3x+3

Where;

h = the height above water

x = horizontal distance from the end of the board

The maximum height is at h' = 0, when change in h with respect to change in x is equal to zero.

differentiating the equation h.

dh/dx = h' = -2x + 3 = 0

Solving for x;

2x = 3

x = 3/2

Substituting into the function h;

h max = -x^2+3x+3

h max = -(3/2)^2 + 3(3/2) +3 = -9/4 +9/2 +3 = 9/4 + 3 =

h max = 21/4 = 5.25 m

What compounds are you made of?

Vanyuwa [196]

I am made of literally THOUSANDS of compounds ... too many to list here.
But the one compound that's most abundant, and actually comprises almost
80% of my entire beautiful body, is the compound DiHydrogen Oxide, with
the molecular formula H₂O . This compound is commonly known as "water".

Raindrops fall vertically at 7.5 m/s relative to the Earth. What does an observer in a car moving at 20.2 m/s in a straight line

Vilka [71]

Answer:

vDP = 21.7454 m/s

θ = 200.3693°

Explanation:

Given

vDE = 7.5 m/s

vPE = 20.2 m/s

Required: vDP

Assume that

vDE to be in direction of - j

vPE to be in direction of i

According to relative motion concept the velocity vDP is given by

vDP = vDE - vPE (I)

Substitute in (I) to get that

vDP = - 7.5 j - 20.2 i

The magnitude of vDP is given by

vDP = √((- 7.5)²+(- 20.2)²) m/s = 21.7454 m/s

θ = Arctan (- 7.5/- 20.2) = 20.3693°

θ is in 3rd quadrant so add 180°

θ = 20.3693° + 180° = 200.3693°
