You are travelling at 60.0 mph on the Grand Central Parkway near exit 10 where it is (nearly) parallel to the Long Island Expres

sway (LIE). a) A truck on the LIE going in the SAME direction as you is travelling at 55.0 mph. What is YOUR relative velocity compared to that truck? b) A truck on the LIE going in the OPPOSITE direction as you is travelling at 55.0 mph. What is YOUR relative velocity compared to that truck?

Answer:

a)Vr= 5 mph

b)Vr= 115 mph

Explanation:

Lets

your velocity ,u= 60 mph

velocity of truck ,v= 55 mph

When object are moving in opposite direction the relative velocity  = u +v When object are moving in opposite direction the relative velocity  = u - v

a)

Truck is moving in the same direction ,so the  relative velocity

Vr= = u - v

Vr= 60 - 55

Vr= 5 mph

b)

Truck is moving in the opposite direction ,so the  relative velocity

Vr= = u+v

Vr= 60 + 55

Vr= 115 mph

What product is obtained from the aldol condensation of cyclohexanone?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

First product is FCH-OH chemically known as 2-[2-furyl(hydroxyl)methyl]-Second product is  FCH i.e (2E)-2-[2-furyl-methylene]-cyclohexanone

Explanation:

Please see the attached image for complete chemical reaction of aldol condensation of cyclohexanone

Aldol Condensation is a form of electrophilic substitution reaction in which the alpha carbon in enols or enolate anions is substituted by an electrophile to form carbon-carbon bond. Cyclohexanone also known as the first ketone consists of two alpha-carbons and four potential substitutions i.e alpha-hydrogens but none of the hydrogen on the ring is substituted. Ketones such as cyclohexanone are much more acidic than their parent hydrocarbon.

First product is FCH-OH chemically known as 2-[2-furyl(hydroxyl)methyl]-cyclohexanone  that further undergoes dehydration resulting into FCH i.e (2E)-2-[2-furyl-methylene]-cyclohexanone

Based on the explanations above, the compound formed is shown in the image.

Your starship, the Aimless Wanderer,lands on the mysterious planet Mongo. As chief scientist-engineer,you make the following mea
Setler [38]

Answer:

a)  M = 4,997 10²⁰ kg ,  b)   T = 1.43 10³ s

Explanation:

a) This exercise should be solved in several parts, let's start by calculating the acceleration of gravity of this planet from kinematics

          v = v₀ - a t

As it indicates that there is no atmosphere, the friction force is zero and the initial and final velocity have the same module, but the opposite direction

         a = (v₀ - v) / t

         a = (15 - (-15)) /9.00 = 30/9

         a = 3.33 m / s²

Now we use Newton's second law where force is the force of universal attraction

          F = m a

         G m M / r² = m a

         M = a r² / G

Let's calculate

         M = 3.33 (1.00 10⁵)² / 6.67 10⁻¹¹

         M = 4,997 10²⁰ kg

b) The period of the ship's orbit

In this case we have a centripetal acceleration

The radius of the orbit is the radius of the plant plus the height of the ship from the surface

         R = R_{m} + h

         R = 1 10⁵ + 2.00 10⁴

         R = 12 10⁴ m

         F = m a

        G m M / R² = m a

Centripetal acceleration is

         a = v² / R

The orbit is circular therefore the velocity module is constant, so we can use the equation of uniform motion, where the distance is the length of the orbit, for a circle

        d = 2π R

        v = d / t

        v = 2π R / T

Let's replace

        G m M / R² = m (2π R / T)² / R

        G M = R³ 4π² / T²

        T² = 4π² R³ / G M

       T² = (4π² (12 10⁴)³ / (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 4,997 10²⁰)

       T² = 6.82 10¹⁶ / 3.33 10¹⁰

       T = √ (2,048 10⁶)

       T = 1.43 10³ s

Describe how a planet, solar system, galaxy, and the universe are related in terms of size.
Alexus [3.1K]

- The Solar System contains the sun and objects that orbit it, including the eight planets, comets, and asteroids, and the Galaxy contains about 100 billion stars, of which the sun is one, as well as large clouds of gas and dust. - The universe contains all physical matter and energy

So Therefore Universe Is the biggest terms of size because it contains all physical matter and energy hope it helps
