Answer:

1.42 s

Explanation:

The equation for free fall of an object starting from rest is generally written as

s=\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the vertical distance covered

a is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

On this celestial body, the equation is

s=10.04 t^2

this means that

\frac{1}{2}g = 10.04

so the acceleration of gravity on the body is

g=2\cdot 10.04 = 20.08 m/s^2

The velocity of an object in free fall starting from rest is given by

v=gt

In this case,

g = 20.08 m/s^2

So the time taken to reach a velocity of

v = 28.6 m/s

is

t=\frac{v}{g}=\frac{28.6 m/s}{20.08 m/s^2}=1.42 s

(15 points) (Asap!!)<br>In what two ways can you increase the elastic potential energy of a spring?
adelina 88 [10]
Hello There

Answers: T<span>he elastic potential energy can be increased by: </span>

<span>1) Getting a spring with a higher spring constant</span>

<span>2) Increasing the length at which the spring is compressed. 

Reasons: Getting a stronger spring makes it stronger which equals more energy. While increasing the compression on the spring, increases the stored energy which makes it more powerful when its released

I hope this helps

grin007 [14]

Answer:

f_e = 1.51 cm

Explanation:

given.

magnification(m) = 400 x

focal length (f_0)= 0.6 cm

distance between eyepiece and lens (L)= 16 cm

Near point (N) = 25 cm

focal length of the eyepiece (f_e)= ?

using equation

m = -\dfrac{L-f_e}{f_o}.\dfrac{N}{f_e}

400 = \dfrac{16-f_e}{0.6}.\dfrac{25}{f_e}

9.6 = \dfrac{16-f_e}{f_e}

9.6f_e = 16-f_e

10.6 f_e = 16

f_e = 1.51 cm

Why does Alpha Centauri appear to be yellow-white?
viktelen [127]
Actually, the real reason it appears yellow-white is because of the temperature of the star. the stars that are hotter tend to be more blue and the stars that aren’t as hot tend to be more red/orange/yellow.
