Acceleration is equal to the initial velocity minus the final velocity, then divided by time.true or false

Almost true but not quite.

That would give you the negative of the actual acceleration.

It should be the other way around:

(final v) minus (initial v), then divide by time.

What is the momentum of a 5 kg object that has a velocity of 1.2 m/s? 3.8 kg • m/s 4.2 kg • m/s 6.0 kg • m/s 6.2 kg • m/s
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Your answer will be 6.0kg•m/s

Explanation:

In the given question all the required details d given. Using these information's a person can easily find the momentum of the object. In the question it is already given that the mass of the object is 5 kg and the velocity at which it is traveling is 1.2 m/s.We know the equation of finding momentum asMomentum = mass * velocity                   = 5 * 1.2                    = 6So the momentum of the object is 6 Newton.

b) The distance of the red supergiant Betelgeuse is approximately 427 light years. If it were to explode as a supernova, it woul
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

b) Betelgeuse would be \approx 1.43 \cdot 10^{6} times brighter than Sirius

c) Since Betelgeuse brightness from Earth compared to the Sun is \approx 1.37 \cdot 10^{-5} } the statement saying that it would be like a second Sun is incorrect

Explanation:

The start brightness is related to it luminosity thought the following equation:

B = \displaystyle{\frac{L}{4\pi d^2}} (1)

where B is the brightness, L is the star luminosity and d, the distance from the star to the point where the brightness is calculated (measured). Thus:

b) B_{Betelgeuse} = \displaystyle{\frac{10^{10}L_{Sun}}{4\pi (427\ ly)^2}} and B_{Sirius} = \displaystyle{\frac{26L_{Sun}}{4\pi (26\ ly)^2}} where L_{Sun} is the Sun luminosity (3.9 x 10^{26} W) but we don't need to know this value for solving the problem. ly is light years.

Finding the ratio between the two brightness we get:

\displaystyle{\frac{B_{Betelgeuse}}{B_{Sirius}}=\frac{10^{10}L_{Sun}}{4\pi (427\ ly)^2} \times \frac{4\pi (26\ ly)^2}{26L_{Sun}} \approx 1.43 \cdot 10^{6} }

c) we can do the same as in b) but we need to know the distance from the Sun to the Earth, which is 1.581 \cdot 10^{-5}\ ly. Then

\displaystyle{\frac{B_{Betelgeuse}}{B_{Sun}}=\frac{10^{10}L_{Sun}}{4\pi (427\ ly)^2} \times \frac{4\pi (1.581\cdot 10^{-5}\ ly)^2}{1\ L_{Sun}} \approx 1.37 \cdot 10^{-5} }

Notice that since the star luminosities are given with respect to the Sun luminosity we don't need to use any value a simple states the Sun luminosity as the unit, i.e 1. From this result, it is clear that when Betelgeuse explodes it won't be like having a second Sun, it brightness will be 5 orders of magnitude smaller that our Sun brightness.
