Answer:
R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m
Explanation:
The important concept of mass center defined by
R_cm = 1 / M ∑ x_i m_i
where M is the total mass, x_i and m_i are the position and masses of each body
Let's apply this expression to our case.
Let's set a reference frame where the axis points from the center of the Earth to the Moon,
R_cm = 1 / M (m_earth 0 + m_moon d)
the total mass is
M = m_earth + m_moon
the distance from the Earth is zero because all mass can be considered to be at its gravimetric center
let's calculate
M = 5.98 10²⁴ + 7.35 10²²
M = 6.0535 10₂⁴24 kg
we substitute
R_cm = 1 / 6.0535 10²⁴ (0 + 7.35 10²² 3.84 )
R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m
Answer:
The net displacement of the car is 3 km West
Explanation:
Please see the attached drawing to understand the car's trajectory: First in the East direction for 4 km (indicated by the green arrow that starts at the origin (zero), and stops at position 4 on the right (East).
Then from that position, it moves back towards the West going over its initial path, it goes through the origin and continues for 3 more km completing a moving to the West a total of 7 km. This is indicated in the drawing with an orange trace that end in position 3 to the left (West) of zero.
So, its NET displacement considered from the point of departure (origin at zero) to the final point where the trip ended, is 3 km to the west.
Answer:
When you look at a simple koi pond you can find Koi (the secondary consumer) that feeds off of the zooplankton (first consumer), they eat the phytoplankton (producers). All in a simple food chain
Explanation:
Basically, Koi eat the little animal plankton (zooplankton) that then eats the plant plankton (phytoplankton) that can only end when a part of that habitat is removed. If you got rid of the plant plankton then the whole chain would collapse and most likely die.
Explanation:
It is based upon the fact that " The light travels faster then sound." As the speed of light is faster then the speed of sound, light travels 300,000 km per second and sound travels 1192 km per hour. That is why we observe the lightening first and hear the the sound of thunder later.
You can do this experiment by yourself. Once you see the lightening start counting the seconds until you hear the sound of thunder.Then divide the seconds by 5, you will find out how many miles away the lightening strike was.
