A car travelling at a constant speed of 70km/h passes a stationary police car. The police car immediately goes on the chase acce

lerating uniformly to reach a speed of 85km/h in 10s and continues at that speed until it overtakes the other car. Calculate the time taken for the police car to overtake the car?

Answer:

18.24 seconds

Explanation:

First you convert the km/h to m/s, 70km/h=(175/9)m/s,85km/h=(425/18)m/s.

You know it took 10 seconds for the police to reach 85 km/h. Calculate the distance that the car is ahead of the police (175/9)*10=1750/9m. Then by divide 1750/9 with 425/18, you will get the value 8.24. Add the 10 seconds with the 8.24 you will get 18.24 sec which is the total time.

Volume of an block is 5 cm3. If the density of the block is 250 g/cm3, what is the mass of the block ?​
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The mass of the block is 1250g.

Explanation:

Given that the formula for density is ρ = mass/volume. Then you have to substitute the values into the formula :

ρ =  \frac{mass}{volume}

Let density = 250,

Let volume = 5,

250 =  \frac{m}{5}

m = 250 \times 5

m = 1250g

We intend to observe two distant equal brightness stars whose angular separation is 50.0 × 10-7 rad. Assuming a mean wavelength
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

13.4cm

Explanation:

According to Rayleigh’s criterion the angular resolution to distinguish two objects is given by:

\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{b}

θ = 50.0*10^-7 rad

λ: wavelength of the light = 550nm

b = diameter of the objective

By doing b the subject of the formula and replacing the values of the angle and wavelength you obtain:

b=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}=1.22\frac{550*10^{-9}m}{50.0*10^{-7}rad}=0.134m=13.4cm

hence, the smallest diameter objective lens is 13.4cm

TRUE OR FALSE? earth revolves around the sun tilted on its axis
Alex777 [14]

The axis of the Earth's rotation is tilted relative to the plain of the Earth's revolution around the Sun.

The question is worded very poorly, but you'd have to say it's TRUE.

Breathing on a cold window can cause it to fog up. which change of state causes this
Dominik [7]
When you breathe on a cold window and it fogs up, that change of state is called: Condensation.

Condensation is: The process in which molecules of a gas slow down, come together, and form a liquid water that collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it.

I know this because I learned it in science class in school.

Hope I helped!

Zero, a hypothetical planet, has a mass of 4.5 x 1023 kg, a radius of 3.2 x 106 m, and no atmosphere. A 10 kg space probe is to
jok3333 [9.3K]

a.) K 2=K 1 +GmM( r 21− r 11)=2.2×10 7J

b.) ​K 2 +GmM( r 11− r 21)=6.9×10 7 J

Applying Law of  Energy conservation :

K 1+U 1

=K 2+U 2

⇒K 1− r 1GmM

=K 2− r 2 GmM

where M=5.0×10 23kg,r1

=> R=3.0×10 6m and m=10kg

(a) If K 1​

=5.0×10 7J and r 2

=4.0×10 6 m, then the above equation leads to

K 2=K 1 +GmM (r 21− r 11)=2.2×10 7J

(b) In this case, we require K 2

=0 and r2

=8.0×10 6m, and solve for K 1:K 1

​=K 2 +GmM (r 11− r 21)=6.9×10 7 J
