Answer:

Today, scientists believe that the main reason the earth has had periodic ages is that the climate of earth is controlled by the difference in heating of it's surface by the sun. As for example, the equatorial regions are the warmest as the sun is vertically overhead of those areas and the polar regions where the sun is at the extreme angels are the coldest ones.

A car starts from rest and after 7.0 seconds it is moving at 42 m/s. What is the car's average acceleration?
andriy [413]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>Q</u><u>UESTION)</u></h3>

<em>✔ We have : a = v/Δt </em>

  • a = 426/7
  • a = 6 m/s²

The car's acceleration is therefore 6 m/s².

A 98-kg fullback, running at 5.0 m/s, attempts to dive directly across the goal line for a touchdown. Just as he reaches the lin
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

(a) Explained below

(b) v_f=0.35\ m/s

(c) Yes

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum</u>

The total linear momentum of a system of particles or objects is conserved unless an external force is acting on the system. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and velocity v is P=mv. If there is a system of bodies, then the total linear momentum is the sum of the individual momentums

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...+m_nv_n

When objects collide and join together, the only final mass is the sum of all masses, all traveling at the same speed.

Our m_1=98\ kg fullback runs at v_1=5\ m/s. Two two 68-kg linebackers attempt to stop him, one at -2.0 m/s and the other at -4.0 m/s. The negative value is because the run against the positive direction, taken in the direction of the fullback.

(a) Before the event, there is a total linear momentum, computed as the sum of the momentums of each player as shown

p_1=m_1v_1=(98)(5)=490 Kg\ m/s

p_2=m_2v_2=(68)(-4)=-272 kg\ m/s

p_3=m_3v_3=(68)(-2)=-136 kg\ m/s

p_t=p_1+p_2+p_3=390-272-136=82\ kg\ m/s

After the collision, all the players keep joined in one single mass of.

m_t=98+68+68=234\ kg

They will move at a speed which will be computed below

(b) The final momentum of the system is

p_f=m_tv_f=82\ kg\ m/s

Since the linear momentum is conserved, the final speed v_f is common to all of the players. Let's solve to find it

\displaystyle v_f=\frac{p_f}{m_t}

\displaystyle v_f=\frac{82}{234}

v_f=0.35\ m/s

(c) Since the final speed of the players is positive, it means the touchdown was actually scored, the fullback moved forward across the goal line, the positive reference.

Answer:

Iris

Explanation:

The iris seems to be the illuminated portion of the eyes which really covers the pupil. It controls the amount of light reaching the eye. The lens is indeed a translucent layer of the retina that serves to concentrate light and objects on the lens.
