Answered Oct 16

What, it isn’t?!

Sorry, I had to.

As far as I have read and understood, the Sumerians and later the Babylonians both had astronomical calendars that already differentiated planets and stars. Earth was not the center to them, the Sun likely was. That was around 2,200 - 1,600 BC.

After that, Greek philosopher Aristarchus of Samos (310 - 230 BC) was the first (recorded) to have believed the solar system was organized around the Sun, rather than the Earth. His heliocentric model was unpopular during Aristarchus’ lifetime, although it would inspire astronomers centuries later, such as Copernicus and Galileo.

Now, there are numerous archeological findings (cave paintings) and studies, that all suggest an understanding of complex astronomy in prehistoric times dating back as far as 40,000 years. This also explains how early, prehistoric migrants may have navigated the seas.

A 0.50-kg bomb is sliding along an icy pond (frictionless surface) with a velocity of 2.0 m/s to the west. The bomb explodes int
nevsk [136]

Answer:

2.667m/s to the north and 3.333 m/s to the west

Explanation:

According to law of momentum conservation, the total momentum should be conserved before and after the explosion.

Before the explosion, the momentum was

0.5*2 = 1 kg m/s to the west

Therefore the total momentum after the explosion should be the same horizontally and vertically.

Vertically speaking, it was 0 before the explosion. After the explosion:

0.2*4 + 0.3v = 0

0.3v = -0.8

v = -0.8/0.3 = -2.667 m/s

So the vertical component of the 0.3kg piece is 2.667m/s to the north

Horizontally speaking, since the 0.2kg-piece doesn't move west or east post-explosion:

0.2*0 + 0.3V = 1

0.3V = 1

V = 1/0.3 = 3.333 m/s

So the horizontal component of the 0.3kg piece is 3.333 m/s to the west

jonny [76]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The change in momentum of x has to be the opposite of the change in momentum of Y because the momentum is just transferred from one to another. But I'm still trying to figure it out how to calculate.

A 7.7 kg sphere makes a perfectly inelastic collision with a second sphere initially at rest. The composite system moves with a
klemol [59]

Answer:

15.4 kg.

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m').................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, V = common velocity of both sphere.

Given: m = 7.7 kg, u' = 0 m/s (at rest)

Let: u = x m/s, and V = 1/3x m/s

Substitute into equation 1

7.7(x)+m'(0) = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7x = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7 = 1/3(7.7+m')

23.1 = 7.7+m'

m' = 23.1-7.7

m' = 15.4 kg.

Hence the mass of the second sphere = 15.4 kg

valkas [14]

Answer:

1 watt is 1 Joule per second. 240 watt would then be 240 joules per second. How many seconds are there in an hour? Current formula is P= IV , P is 240(not the power in an hour because the current is calculated in seconds), and V is 12V. Then you will get I, the current.
