Why does the Polaris appear to remain stationary in the night sky when other stars show an apparent pattern?

1 answer:

3 0

Because one pole of the Earth's axis of rotation (the North one) points
almost exactly toward Polaris.

If Polaris had a pimple or a bump somewhere on its edge, you'd see
the bump rotate around the whole edge, like a clock, once a day. But
the whole star appears to stay in one place, because our axis points to it.

What is the ACCELERATION of a 50 kg object pushed with a force of 500 newtons *

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

To find the acceleration of an object given the force and mass we use the formula

<h3> $acceleration = \frac{force}{mass}$ </h3>

From the question

mass of object = 50 kg

force = 500 N

So the acceleration is

<h3> $acceleration = \frac{500}{50} \\ = \frac{50}{5}$ </h3>

We have the final answer as

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 50 POINTS!

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

1) Current decreases; 2) Inverse proportionally; 3) 1[A]

Explanation:

As we can see as the resistance increases the current decreases, if we take two points as an example, when the resistance is equal to 50 [ohms] the current is equal to 1[amp] and when the resistance is equal to 200 [ohms] the current tends to have a value below 0.5 [amp]. Thus demonstrating the decrease in current.

Inverse proportionally, by definition we know that the law of ohm determines the voltage according to resistance and amperage. This is the voltage will be equal to the product of the voltage by the resistance.

$V=I*R\\V = voltage [volts]\\I = current[amp]\\R = resistance [ohms]$

where:

$R =\frac{V}{I} \\or\\I=\frac{V}{R}$

And whenever we have in a fractional number the denominator the variable we are interested in, we can say that this is inversely proportional to the value we are interested in determining. In this case, we can see from the two previous expressions that both the current and the resistance appear in the denominator, therefore they are inversely proportional to each other.

If we place ourselves on the graph on the resistance axis, we see that at 50 [ohm] will correspond a current value equal to 1 [A].
