If you wanted to know how big a tiger is, which measurements would you use?

Answer:

meter, kilogram

Explanation:

Here we want to know how big the tiger is. This means that we want to measure its size and possibly its mass.

The size is actually a measure of the length of the tiger, and length is measured in meters.

The mass of an object, instead, is a measure of the "amount of matter" in the substance, and it is measured in kilograms.

The other options are wrong because:

- The second is the unit of time

- The candela is the unit of the luminous intensity

- The mole is the unit of the amount of substance, and it is used for gases

- The ampere is the unit of the current

olchik [2.2K]

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!!

In springboard diving, the diver strides out to the end of the board, takes a jump onto its end, and uses the resultant spring-l

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

10.4 m/s

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the following SUVAT equation:

$v=u+at$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the diver in the problem, we have:

$u=+6.3 m/s$ is the initial velocity (positive because it is upward)

$a=g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity (negative because it is downward)

By substituting t = 1.7 s, we find the velocity when the diver reaches the water:

$v=+6.3 + (-9.8)(1.7)=-10.4 m/s$

And the negative sign means that the direction is downward: so, the speed is 10.4 m/s.

jasenka [17]

Answer:

$U(3)=-43J$

Explanation:

Potential energy is minus the integral of Fdx. Doing the integration yields:

$U=\int\limits {6.0x+12}\, dx$

$U=-3x^2-12x+C$

$U(0)=20J$

$U(0)=-3(0)^2+12(0)+C=20$

$C=20$

Now for x=3.0m

$U(3)=-3*(3)^2-12(3)+20$

$U(3)=-43J$
