What is formed in the shape of a long, low land area between hills or mountains?

What is the distance an object would be from Earth if its parallax were one arcsecond?

ZanzabumX [31]

The correct answer is (a.) a parsec. A parsec is a distance an object would be from Earth if its parallax were one arcsecond. This unit of measurement is usually used in astronomy which makes it easier for astronomers to calculate or measure in space accurately.

A jet plane is launched from a catapult on an aircraft carrier. In 2.0 s it reaches a speed of 42 m/s at the end of the catapult

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

time taken $t=2\ s$

Speed acquired in 2 sec $v=42\ m/s$

Here initial velocity is zero $u=0$

acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in a given time

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\frac{42-0}{2}=21\ m/s^2$

Distance travel in this time

$s=ut+0.5at^2$

where

s=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

$s=0+\0.5\times 21\times (2)^2$

$s=42\ m$

so Jet Plane travels a distance of 42 m in 2 s

A truck with a mass of 1370 kg and moving with a speed of 12.0 m/s rear-ends a 593 kg car stopped at an intersection. The collis

Elza [17]

Answer:

speed of car after collision, v2 =16.1 m/s and of the truck, v1 = 4.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

mass of truck M = 1370 kg

speed of truck = 12.0 m/s

mass of car m = 593 kg

collision is elastic therefore,

Applying law of momentum conservation we have

momentum before collision = momentum after collision

1370×12 + 0( initially car is at rest) = 1370×v1+ 593×v2 ....(i)

Also for a collision to be elastic,

velocity of approach = velocity of separation

12 -0 = v2-v1 ....(ii)

using (i) and (ii) we have

So speed of car after collision, v2 =16.1 m/s and of the truck, v1 = 4.6 m/s

3. The center of mass (or center of gravity) of a two-particle system is at the origin. One particle

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

B) (-2.0 m, 0.0 m)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of particle 1 is, $m_1=2.0\ kg$

Mass of particle 2 is, $m_2=3.0\ kg$

Position of center of mass is, $(x_{cm},y_{cm})=(0,0)$

Position of particle 1 is, $(x_1,y_1)=(3.0\ m,0.0\ m)$

Position of particle 2 is, $(x_2,y_2)=(?\ m,?\ m)$

We know that, the x-coordinate of center of mass of two particles is given as:

$x_{cm}=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}$

Plug in the values given.

$0=\frac{(2.0\times 3)+(3.0\times x_2)}{2.0+3.0}\\\\0=6+3x_2\\\\3x_2=-6\\\\x_2=\frac{-6}{3}=-2.0\ m$

We know that, the y-coordinate of center of mass of two particles is given as:

$y_{cm}=\frac{m_1y_1+m_2y_2}{m_1+m_2}$

Plug in the values given.

$0=\frac{(2.0\times 0)+(3.0\times y_2)}{2.0+3.0}\\\\0=0+3y_2\\\\3y_2=0\\\\y_2=\frac{0}{3}=0.0\ m$

Therefore, the position of particle 2 of mass 3.0 kg is (-2.0 m, 0.0 m).

So, option (B) is correct.
