GIVEN:
   60 beats per minute
   21 beats per minute
   find x= how fast would an astronaut be flying away
 1            x
-----   *  ------ = (60x = 21)  -------> 60x = 21    ------------>  x= 0.35 
60         21                                  -------   -----
                                                     60      60

The answer is 0.35 seconds which refers to how fast would an astronaut be flying away from the earth if he has a heart rate of 21 beats/min.

Answer:

2.81 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

R₁ = rate of heartbeat on earth = 60 beats/min

T₁ = Time period for 1 beat on earth = 1/R₁ = 1/60 min = 60/60 sec = 1 sec  

R₂ = rate of heartbeat on location of astronaut = 21 beats/min

T₂ = Time period for 1 beat at the location of astronaut = 1/R₂ = 1/21 min = 60/21 sec

v = speed of astronaut

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Using the equation

T₁ = T₂ sqrt(1 - (v/c)²)

1 = (60/21) sqrt(1 - (v/(3 x 10⁸))²)

v = 2.81 x 10⁸ m/s

You throw a rock straight up into the air with a speed of 14.2 m/s. how long does it take the rock to reach its highest point?
slega [8]

The acceleration of gravity on or near the Earth's surface is 9.8 m/s² downward.
Is that right ?           I don't hear any objection, so I'll assume that it is.

That means that during every second that gravity is the only force on an object,
the object either gains 9.8m/s of downward speed, or it loses 9.8m/s of upward
speed.   (The same thing.)

If the rock starts out going up at 14.2 m/s, and loses 9.8 m/s of upward speed
every second, it runs out of upward gas in (14.2/9.8) = <em>1.449 seconds</em> (rounded)

At that point, since it has no more upward speed, it can't go any higher.  Right ?

Please help really easy worth 20
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Stationary

20N

Explanation:

From the graph, we see that the body traveling is on a fixed position. Therefore, it is a stationary body.

The graph given is a position - time curve.

 This curve depict a body changing position with given time.

Since the line of the curve is on a single position, the body is not changing position with the passage of time therefore, it is a stationary object.

B. 20N

From Newton's third law of motion we understand that "action and reaction force are equal but oppositely directed".

 Since the person is exerting a force of 20N on the balance.

So, the reaction force by the balance is 20N upward.
