The classical physics works on the Newton's laws of motion. It is applicable on heavenly bodies which are governed by the gravitational force. On the other hand, Quantum Physics is applicable for very low mass and sized bodies like electron, protons etc. The classical physics would accurately describe the motion of satellite moving with speed 7500 m/s using the following formula:

r=\frac {GM}{v^{2}}

where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the planet and v is the orbital speed. Then radius of the orbit can be described by this formula.

Suppose that the acceleration of a model rocket is proportional to the difference between 100 ft/sec and the rocket's velocity.
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = 0

final velocity, v = 80 ft/s

acceleration, a = 150 ft/s²

Let the time taken is t.

v = u + at

80 = 0 + 150 x t

t = 0.53 second

Explain the origin of the magnitude designation for determining the brightness of stars. Why does it seem to go backward, with s
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Hipparchus was an ancient Greek who classified stars based on the brightness in 129 B.C. He grouped the brightest stars and ranked them 1 (first magnitude) and dimmest stars as 6 (sixth magnitude). Thus, the smaller numbers indicated brighter stars. Now, the scale extends in negative axis as well. More the negative number, brighter is the star. For example, Sun has magnitude -26.74.

This the apparent magnitude which means the classification is based on the brightness of the star as it appears from the Earth.

Avery likes to walk 30 feet in 10<br>seconds. What is her speed?​
Sliva [168]

Answer:

If she is walking 30 feet every 10 seconds, that means she is walking 180 feet per minute. Multiply that by the 60 minutes in an hour, means she walks (180x60)= 10,800 feet an hour.

She walks 3 feet a second.

She walks 180 feet a minute.

She walks 10,800 feet an hour.
