The last "hot house" or period of increased temperature occurred ____

Suppose that the space shuttle Columbia accelerates at 14.0 m/s2 for 8.50 minutes after takeoff.

givi [52]

Answer:

A. speed = 7.14 Km/s

B. distance = 1820.7 Km

Explanation:

Given that: a = 14.0 m/ $s^{2}$ , t = 8.50 minutes.

But,

t = 8.50 = 8.50 x 60

= 510 seconds

A. By applying the first equation of motion, the speed of the shuttle at the end of 8.50 minutes can be determined by;

v = u + at

where: v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

u = 0

So that,

v = 14 x 510

= 7140 m/s

The speed of the shuttle at the end of 8.50 minute is 7.14 Km/s.

B. the distance traveled can be determined by applying second equation of motion.

s = ut + $\frac{1}{2}$ a $t^{2}$

where: s is the distance, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

u = 0

s = $\frac{1}{2}$ a $t^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{2}$ x 14 x $(510)^{2}$

= 7 x 260100

= 1820700 m

The distance that the shuttle has traveled during the given time is 1820.7 Km.

NEED HELP !!!!!

goblinko [34]

Answers with Explanations:

1. Answer: True

Explanation:

Muscle cramps happen especially during an "intense workout." The frequency of cramps is related to heat, thus it is important to stay hydrated all throughout the workout. Eating should be done at least 2 to 3 hours prior to workout because eating immediately before exercise leads to undigested food. Such kind of food causes cramps.

2. Answer: True

Explanation: Applying direct pressure immediately after the injury can help decrease bleeding. Blood loss results to blood that is collected under the skin. This turns into the color of blue or black, also known as "bruise." Decrease bleeding would then mean decrease bruising.

Applying pressure also decreases swelling because it restricts the blood flow and fluid from reaching into the injury.

3. Answer: False

Explanation: "Lordosis" refers to the body's natural lordotic curve. This is considered "normal." The excessive inward curve of the lumbar spine is called "hyperlordosis." This is commonly caused by poor posture, lack of exercise, obesity and spinal conditions.

4. Answer: False

Explanation: The mnemonic acronym "RICE" stands for Rest, Ice, Compression (not Cold) and Elevation. This term is commonly used in First Aid and was introduced by Gabe Mirkin in 1978.

5. Answer: True

Explanation: Keeping the proper posture during exercise prevents the body from encountering injuries. It also ensures that the body is executing the exercise by using the muscles properly.

6. Answer: False

Explanation: "Ice" is important in decreasing the swelling of the injury. It constricts the blood vessels which prevents the flow of blood and other fluids towards the site of injury.

7. Answer: False

Explanation: The spine is naturally straight if a person doesn't have a medical problem. However, scoliosis is a medical problem. It is a condition wherein a person's spine is curved, rather than being straight.

8. Answer: True

Explanation: When it comes to exercise, starting slow is the main key. It is followed by gradual building up. The increase will depend on the person's stamina. For example, starting with a warm-up, followed by a slow walk then pacing up to a brisk walk.

9. Answer: True

Explanation: Kyphosis is a spinal condition wherein the person's spine is excessively curved outward. This causes the upper back and the shoulders to be rounded. This condition is commonly called "hunchback."

10. Answer: True

Explanation: Proper posture entails the right amount of spinal curve. This means that the spine is in "neutral position." This means that the spine takes on the "S-shape." A little amount of curve results to a "flat back" while too much curve results to a "swayback."

11. Answer: all of the above

Explanation: Body posture and technique are important especially when it comes to exercise. Poor posture and technique lead to strain on joints, ligaments and injury especially to the muscles. This also puts the body out of alignment.

12. Answer: True

Explanation: Stretching is appropriately done at the end of a warm-up when the temperature has increased because at this time, the muscles are already flexible. It allows the muscles to be loosened and also aids in better performance during workouts or exercises.

13. Answer: False

Explanation: "Lifting" with your back only will result to muscle injury. There are several ways to do lifting such as "pull-ups" or "lat pull downs." This means that you are not lifting with your back only but using your other joints and muscles for lifting.

14. Answer: True

Explanation: "Warming-up" is an essential preparation before any workout because it prepares the body by increasing temperature and blood flow to the muscles. Without it, the muscles will become sore and the chance for injuries increases.

15. Answer: True

Explanation: "Cool down" is considered equally important as "warm-up." It lowers the body's temperature and lowers the amount of lactic acid that causes muscle cramping, soreness and stiffness.

16. Answer: True

Explanation: It is said that most people forget about warming up and cooling down before and after they work out. It is necessary to have 5 to 10 minutes of warm-up and cool down for every exercise routine.

17. Answer: False

Explanation: Knee extension is best done at 90 degrees angle as advised by most health experts. However, it depends on your capability and your exercise goals. For some people, extending beyond 90 degrees is beneficial.

18. Answer: True

Explanation: Tucking your belly button helps with your body's core exercise. If this is going to be done throughout the day, then surely it will strengthen the muscles. This can be done while a person is sitting down or walking.

vazorg [7]

I'm trying to think of something that will give you the biggest bang for your buck, meaning what would give you the most number of energy transformations in their use.

Wind energy uses those great big windmills that transform wind into electrical energy. The wind is caused by the sun (which has nuclear energy, light energy and the earth's rotation which is not related to the sun but is mechanical energy). To start with you use mechanical energy. That energy drives a generator that stores it's energy in a battery. You have changed electrical energy into chemical energy. The batteries, on a calm day take over and provide electrical energy that must be transported to the consumers using it. Proponents of wind energy say that it is pollution free. It's not exactly true. The batteries used have to be manufactured (not a clean industry) and when they wear out, they pollute the environment if they cannot be recharged with new battery plates and acid (chemical).

Added to which wind energy is very noisy (sound energy) which has been linked to serious diseases.

A proton is moving in a circular orbit of radius 20 cm under a uniform magnetic field 0.3 t perpendicular to the velocity of the

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

v = 5.75 x 10⁶ m/s

Explanation:

The radius (r) of the circular orbit taken by a charged particle is related to its speed perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength B, and is given by

r = $\frac{mv}{qB}$ --------------(i)

Where,

q = charge of the particle

m = mass of the particle

Making v subject of the formula in equation (i) above gives

v = $\frac{qBr}{m}$ -------------------(ii)

Given;

r = 20cm = 0.2m

B = 0.3T

v = unknown

q = charge of proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = mass of the proton = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷kg

Substitute the values of m, q, B and r into equation (ii) above to get;

v = $\frac{1.6 * 10^{-19} * 0.3 * 0.2} {1.67*10^{-27} }$

Solving for v gives:

v = 5.75 x 10⁶ m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the proton is 5.75 x 10⁶ m/s
