Answer:

A) 15.0 years

Explanation:

Due to the distance to the star system is in light-year units, we can compute the time by using:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{14.4 l-y}{0.960}=15l-y

then, Rob will take to complete the trip about 15 light-years.

hope this helps!!

A solid metal ball of radius 1.5 cm bearing a charge of -15 nC is located near a hollow plastic ball of radius 1.9 cm bearing a
blsea [12.9K]

We have that the electric field at the center of the metal ball due only to the charges on the surface of the metal ball is

E=7*10^{9}N/C

From the question we are told that

A solid metal ball of radius 1.5 cm

bearing a charge of -15 nC is located near a hollow plastic ball of radius 1.9 cm bearing

uniformly distributed charge of -7 nC

The distance between the centers of the balls is 9 cm

Generally the equation for the electric field  is mathematically given as

E=\frac{kq_2}{d^2}\\\\E=\frac{(9*10^9)7*10^{-2}}{9*10^{-2}}\\\\

E=7*10^{9}N/C

Paola can flex her legs from a bent position through a distance of 20.1 cm. Paola leaves the ground when her legs are straight,
makkiz [27]

The third equation of free fall can be applied to determine the acceleration. So that Paola's acceleration during the flight is 39.80 m/s^{2}.

Acceleration is a quantity that has a direct relationship with velocity and also inversely proportional to the time taken. It is a vector quantity.

To determine Paola's acceleration, the third equation of free fall is appropriate.

i.e V^{2} = U^{2} ± 2as

where: V is the final velocity, U is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and s is the distance covered.

From the given question, s = 20.1 cm (0.201 m), U = 4.0 m/s, V = 0.

So that since Poala flies against gravity, then we have:

V^{2} = U^{2} - 2as

0 = (4)^{2} - 2(a x 0.201)

  = 16 - 0.402a

0.402a = 16

a = \frac{16}{0.402}

  = 39.801

a = 39.80 m/s^{2}

Therefore Paola's acceleration is 39.80 m/s^{2}.

A ball hits a wall horizontally at 6m/s and rebounces at 4.4m/s the ball is in contact with wall for 0.04 sec. what is the accel
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 6 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 4.4 m/s

Time taken (t) = 0.04sec

Find:

Acceleration (a) = ?

Computation:

We know that,

⇒ v = u + at

⇒ a = (v - u) / t

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (4.4 - 6) / 0.04

⇒ Acceleration (a) = (-1.6) / 0.04

Acceleration (a) = 40 m/s²

A 48 kg cart is sitting motionless at the top of the hill. At what height, did the cart start at, to reach 88435 J of energy at
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer : The height is 188 meters  

Explanation :   When the cart reached at the end from top of hill then the cart have potential energy .

Given that,

Potential energy = 88435 J

Mass of cart = 48 kg

We know that,

The potential energy is

mgh =88435

h= \dfrac{88435}{48\times9.8}

h = 187.9 = 188\ meters

So, the height of the top is 188 meters.
