How do you know something has moved even if you didn't see the object move?

Physics

Anettt [7]3 years ago

Answer:Use relative position.

Explanation:

An object is moving if its position

relative to a fixed point is changing.

Remember, a book on a desk does not seem to be moving, but if you put it relative to the sun, it is moving at 30 km per second. Look for relativity in motion.

A frog is at the bottom of a 17-foot well. Each time the frog leaps, it moves up 3 feet. If the frog has not reached the top of
docker41 [41]

Answer:

The frog takes 8 jumps to reach top of well

Explanation:

Given data

Frog at bottom=17 foot

Each time frog leaps 3 feet

Frog has not reached the top of the well, then the frog slides back 1 foot

To Find

Total number of leaps the frog needed to escape from well

Solution

in 1 jump distance jumped=3+(-1)

                                           =2 feet

                                           =2×1 feet

The "-1" is because the frog goes back

Now After 2 jumps the distance jumped as:

                     Distance Jumped=2+2

                     Distance Jumped=2*2

                                                   =4 feet

Similarly after 7 jumps

                    Distance Jumped=2+2+......+2

                    Distance Jumped=2*7

                                                 =14 feet

Now after 8th jump the frog climbs but doesnot slide back as it is reached to the top of well.

So

              Distance Jumped=(Distance Jumped after 7 jumps)+3

                                           =14+3

                                           =17 feet

The frog takes 8 jumps to reach top of well

A weightlifter lifts a 250-kg mass 0.5 meters above his head, how much PEg does the mass have (Note: g=9.8 m/s2)? Round your ans
morpeh [17]

Answer:

1225 J

Explanation:

The Gravitational potential energy (PEG) gained by a mass lifted above the ground is given by

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height at which the object has been lifted

In this problem, we have

m = 250 kg

h = 0.5 m

So, the PE of the object is

PE=(250 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0.5 m)=1225 J

A shot is fired at an angle of 60 degree horizontal with Kinetic energy E. If air resistance is ignored, the K.E at the top of t
Lapatulllka [165]
I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith. 

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is    S cos(60)  =  0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is   S sin(60) = S√3/2  =  0.866 S .  (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change. 

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally. 

That's  E/4 .

What is accurate about the planet’s climate system?
ElenaW [278]

The accurate about the planet’s climate system is the wind

because heating near the equator blows the wind to drive the convection cells in the atmosphere, and the friction created by the rotation of the spherical planet in the atmosphere causes the wind to appear to bend left or right across the surface of the planet. ..

The climate system is a highly complex global system consisting of five major components: the atmosphere, the ocean, the cryosphere (cryosphere), the land surface, the biosphere, and the interactions between them.

Solar energy drives the climate by heating the surface of the earth unevenly. Ice also reflects incoming sunlight, further cooling the poles. Temperature differences move the ocean and atmosphere as they work together to disperse heat throughout the globe.

A child is playing on a swing. As long as he does not swing too high the time it takes him to complete one full oscillation will
Aleks [24]

Answer:

We know that for a pendulum of length L, the period  (time for a complete swing) is defined as:

T = 2*pi*√(L/g)

where:

pi = 3.14

L = length of the pendulum

g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

Now, we can think on the swing as a pendulum, where the child is the mass of the pendulum.

Then the period is independent of:

The mass of the child

The initial angle

Where the restriction of not swing to high is because this model works for small angles, and when the swing is to high the problem becomes more complex.
