A fish swimming in a horizontal plane has velocity i = (4.00 + 1.00 ) m/s at a point in the ocean where the position relative to

a certain rock is i = (12.0 ? 1.80 ) m. After the fish swims with constant acceleration for 19.0 s, its velocity is = (17.0 ? 1.00 ) m/s.
(a) What are the components of the acceleration of the fish?
ax =

m/s2
ay = -0.10


Review the definition of average acceleration and remember that each component is treated separately. m/s2

(b) What is the direction of its acceleration with respect to unit vector ?

Answer:

a. The horizontal component of acceleration a₁ = 0.68 m/s²

The vertical component of acceleration a₂ = -0.11 m/s²

b. -9.19° = 350.81° from the the positive x-axis

Explanation:

The initial velocity v₁ of the fish is v₁ = 4.00i + 1.00j m/s. Its final velocity after accelerating for t = 19.0 s is v₂ =  17.0i - 1.00j m/s

a. The acceleration a = (v₂ - v₁)/t = [17.0i - 1.00j - (4.00i + 1.00j)]/19 = [(17.0 -4.0)i - (-1.0 -1.0)j]/19 = (13.0i - 2.0j)/19 = 0.68i - 0.11j m/s²

The horizontal component of acceleration a₁ = 0.68 m/s²

The vertical component of acceleration a₂ = -0.11 m/s²

b. The direction of the acceleration relative to the unit vector i,

tanθ = a₂/a₁ = -0.11/0.68 = -0.1618

θ = tan⁻¹(-0.1618) = -9.19° ⇒ 360 + (-9.19) = 350.81° from the the positive x-axis

lianna [129]

Mass of the milkyway galaxy :

M_{mw} = \frac{4\pi ^{2}r^{3}}{GT^{2}}\\\\M_{mw} = \frac{4\pi ^{2}(3x10^{4}x9.46x10^{15})^{3}}{6.67x10^{-11}Nm^{2}/Kg^{2}x(7.13x10^{15})^2}\\\\M_{mw } =  2.7x10^{14} Kg

The magnitude of the mass of the Milky Way galaxy = 2.7x10^{14} Kg

<h3>Can galaxies recycle stars?</h3>

Galaxies do not appear to have sufficient matter inside them to keep shaping modern stars at the rates that they do. Presently, astronomers have caught a universe within the act of reusing fabric that it already tossed out, which may clarify the discrepancy. New perceptions give the primary coordinate evidence of gas streaming into distant galaxies that are effectively making infant stars, offering support for the "galactic recycling" theory.

When a sound wave moves past a point inair, what happens to the density of air at thispoint?1.There is no change in the density
Westkost [7]

Answer:

2.The density of air increases and thendecreases as the sound wave passes.

Explanation:

Sound waves are mechanical waves, which consist of oscillation of the particles in the medium where the wave is transmitted through.

Sound waves are also longitudinal waves, which means that the direction of oscillations of the particles of the medium occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of motion of the wave (so, essentially back and forth).

Due to the nature of longitudinal waves, they create alternating regions of the medium where the density of particles are higher and lower. The former are called compressions, while the latter are called rarefactions.

Therefore, when a sound wave travels through the air, the density of one region of air continuously changes: compression first (high density), rarefaction then (lower density), then compression again, etc..

ladessa [460]

Answer:

A student could conclude that the cart gained momentum as it rolled down.

Explanation:

If the cart was allowed to roll down the ramp from rest, it means that the initial velocity of the cart is zero (0). Also, if the final velocity of the cart became 25 cm/s, it means that the velocity of the cart increased from 0 to 25 cm/s.

Therefore, A student could conclude that the cart gained momentum as it rolled down.
