Simile, as the example compares the person with a cheetah using “as” (a simile uses “like” or “as” for comparisons between two things).

Astar is 10 light years away from the earth. Suppose it brightens up suddenly today, after how long can we see this change?

Blababa [14]

The phrase "light year" is a <u><em>distance</em></u> ... it's the distance that light travels through vacuum in one year.

When you look at an object located 1 light year away from you, you see it as it was 1 year ago.

If a star located 10 light years away from us suddenly brightens, or dims, or explodes, we see the event <em>10 years later.</em>

provides some pertinent background for this problem. A pendulum is constructed from a thin, rigid, and uniform rod with a small

gavmur [86]

Answer:

the period of the physical pendulum is 0.498 s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

$T_{simple$ = 0.61 s

we know that, the relationship between T and angular frequency is;

T = 2π/ω ---------- let this be equation 1

Also, the angular frequency of physical pendulum is;

ω = √(mgL / $I$ ) ------ let this equation 2

where m is mass of pendulum, L is distance between axis of rotation and the center of gravity of rod and $I$ is moment of inertia of rod.

Now, moment of inertia of thin uniform rod D is;

$I$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ mD²

since we were not given the length of the rod but rather the period of the simple pendulum, lets combine this three equations.

we substitute equation 2 into equation 1

we have;

T = 2π/ω OR T = 2π/√(mgL/ $I$ ) OR T = 2π√( $I$ /mgL)

so we can use $I$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ mD² for moment of inertia of the rod

Since center of gravity of the uniform rod lies at the center of rod

so that L = $\frac{1}{2}$ D.

now, substituting these equations, the period becomes;

T = 2π/√( $I$ /mgL) OR T = $2\pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{1}{3}mD^2 }{mg(\frac{1}{2})D } }$ OR T = 2π√(2D/3g ) ----- equation 3

length of rod D is still unknown, so from equation 1 and 2 ( period of pendulum ),

we have;

ω $_{simple$ = 2π/ $T_{simple$ OR ω $_{simple$ = √(g/D) OR ω $_{simple$ = 2π√( D/g )

so we simple solve for D/g and insert into equation 3

so we have;

T = √(2/3) × $T_{simple$

we substitute in value of $T_{simple$

T = √(2/3) × 0.61 s

T = 0.498 s

Therefore, the period of the physical pendulum is 0.498 s

Hubble measured the velocity of the movement of galaxies by using

kogti [31]

Answer:

Hubble measured the velocity of the movement of galaxies by using Hubble's law states that galaxies located farthest from the center of the universe than those closest to the center.

Explanation:

Hubble's Law says that an object's velocity away from an observer is directly proportional to its distance from the observer. In other words, the farther away something is the faster it is moving away from us. The spectrum of a galaxy allows you to measure its redshift.

A student holds a bike wheel and starts it spinning with an initial angular speed of 9.0 rotations per second. The wheel is subj

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

$\Delta t = 8 s$

Explanation:

As we know that the angular acceleration of the wheel due to friction is constant

so we can use kinematics

$\theta = \omega_i t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2$

so we have

$(65 \times 2\pi) = (2\pi \times 9)(10) + \frac{1}{2}(\alpha)(10^2)$

$130\pi = 180\pi + 50 \alpha$

$\alpha = -\pi rad/s^2$

now time required to completely stop the wheel is given as

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

$0 = (2\pi \times 9) + (-\pi) t$

$t = 18 s$

now time required to stop the wheel is given as

$\Delta t = 18 - 10$

$\Delta t = 8 s$

Newton’s first law says that if motion changes, then a force is exerted. Describe a collision in terms of the forces exerted on

ira [324]

Answer:

In collision between equal-mass objects, each object experiences the same acceleration, because of equal force exerted on both objects.

Explanation:

In a collision two objects, there is a force exerted on both objects that causes an acceleration of both objects. These forces that act on both objects are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Thus, in collision between equal-mass objects, each object experiences the same acceleration, because of equal force exerted on both objects.
