A skier starts from rest down a slope 500.0 M long, the skier accelerates at a constant rate of 2.00 m/s/s, what's the velocity
nevsk [136]
We can use the kinematic equation
(v_f)^2 = (v_i)^2 + 2*a*d
where Vf is what we are looking for
Vi is 0 since we start from rest
a is acceleration
and d is the distance

we get
(Vf)^2 = (0)^2 + 2*(2)*(500)
(Vf)^2 = 2000
Vf = about 44.721
or 44.7 m/s   [if you are rounding this by significant figures]

You can comfortably hold your fingers close beside a candle flame, but not very close above the flame. why? challenge (optional)
Inessa05 [86]
The candle flame releases hot gases, which directly go in upwards directions. Due to which the air near the flame of the candle is very hot and dense. The particles along with vapour move up. And since the sideways, the air is not very dense and hot, we are able to hold the candle. In anti-gravity region, there will be no density differences and also, the convection process wont occur. So, the candle quickly snuffs off.

How would a chart of mid-17th century religious beliefs differ from this chart?
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is B)  Fewer people would identify as an atheist because people were not willing to share alternative religious beliefs publically.

Explanation:

A chart of mid-17th-century religious beliefs differs from this chart in that Fewer people would identify as an atheist because people were not willing to share alternative religious beliefs publically.

In the 1600s, people did not have total freedom of speech if they had any. The church had a tremendous influence in the life of people and religious beliefs defined societies and families. The Church exerted its power and influence in many aspects of the people's lives and something out of the purview of the church or different to the religious beliefs of the Church was considered to be sacrilegious. The Church prosecuted people for being against the Church, so people of that time preferred to say that they were religious people supporting the church. Being an atheist was not really an option in the 17th century.

The peak wavelength of light coming from a giant red star is 660 nm. Calculate the approximate surface temperature of this star
laiz [17]

Answer:

The value is T =260.33 \ F

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

  The the peak wavelength is  \lambda_p =  660 nm = 660 *10^{-9} \  m

 Generally according to the Wien's displacement law

       \lambda_p *  T =  2.898*10^{-3} \ m \cdot K  

Here T is the approximate surface temperature of this star in K so

       660*10^{-9} *  T =  2.898*10^{-3} \ m \cdot K  

=>    T =  4091 \  K

Converting to Fahrenheit ,

     T = [400 - 273.15 ] * \frac{9}{5} + 32

=>  T =260.33 \ F

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

0.7m/s^2

Explanation:

acceleration=(final-initial velocity)/time

x=(14-0)/20

x=14/20

x=0.7
