Answer:

D) Whatever is causing the accelerating expansion of the universe.

Explanation:

Scientists have come to believe that we live in an open universe with a poorly understood effect called Dark Energy, which causes the accelerated expansion of the Earth.

(If you are doing the multiple choice quiz, this is the answer.)

A 500 kg rollercoaster car starts from rest at the top of a 10.0 m tall hill. it then travels down the track and up a loop. the
malfutka [58]

Speed of the roller coaster at the top of the loop= 7.67 m/s

Explanation:

using the law of conservation of energy

KEi + PEi= KEf + PEf

KEi= kinetic energy at the top of the hill=0 because the car is at rest there.

PEi= potential energy at the top of the hill

PEf= potential energy at the top of the loop

KEf= kinetic energy at the top of the loop

Also kinetic energy= 1/ 2m v² and potential energy= mgh

m= mass

h= height

v= velocity

so 0+ mghi = 1/2mv² + mg h

500 (9.8)(10)+ 1/2 (500) v²= 500 ( 9.8) (7)

49000+250 v²= 34300

250v²= 14700

v²=58.8

v=7.67 m/s

As a science fair project, you want to launch an 950g model rocket straight up and hit a horizontally moving target as it passes
marin [14]

Answer:

55.28 m

Explanation:

Mass of the rocket = 950 g = 950 / 1000 = 0.95 kg

force of gravity = 0.95 Kg × 9.81 m/s² = 9.3195 N

force due to acceleration = 18.3 N - 9.3195 N = 8.9805 N

F = ma

acceleration of the rocket = F / m = 8.9805 N / 0.95 Kg = 9.45 m/s²

using the equation of motion

d = ut + 1/2 at² u = 0 m/s

d = 1/2 at²

t = √(2d / a) = √ ( 2 × 40 m /  9.45 m/s²) = 2.91 s

the horizontal distance between the target and the rocket = vt = 19 m/s × 2.91 s = 55.28 m

The modulus of elasticity for a ceramic material having 4.7 vol% porosity is 317 GPa. (a) Calculate the modulus of elasticity (i
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

a) Given that the modulus of elasticity (E) = 317 GPa, to find the modulus of elasticity (in GPa) for the nonporous material (E_o), we use the formula:

E_0=\frac{E}{1-1.9P+0.9P^2}\\\\where\ P=4.7\%=0.047,hence:\\\\ E_0=\frac{317}{1-1.9(0.047)+0.9(0.047)^2}\\\\E_0=347.3\ GPa

b) If the porosity P = 11.1%, then the modulus of elasticity is:

E=E_0(1-1.9P+0.9P^2)=347.3(1-1.9(0.111)+0.9(0.111)^2)=278\ GPa

How does the vertical acceleration at point a compare to the vertical acceleration at point c?
Anika [276]
The vertical accelerations of the point a and point c are equal. because the vertical acceleration is due to the acceleration due to gravity. Acceleration due to gravity<span> may refer to: Gravitational acceleration, the acceleration caused by the gravitational attraction of massive bodies in general, which is equal to 9.8 m/s^2</span>
