Answer:

True

Explanation:

Measurements of how orbital speeds depend on distance from the center of our galaxy tell us that stars in the outskirts of the galaxy. True or False

stars in the outskirt orbit the galactic center

the object mean orbital speed depends only on the Earth's mass and the semi-major axis (half the longest diameter) of the object's orbit. worthy of note. the orbital speed changes depending on where in the orbit the object is. It will be greatest when closest to Earth and least when furthest from Earth.

The boom of a fire truck raises a fireman (and his equipment – total weight 280 lbf) 60 ft into the air to fight a building fire
Katen [24]

Answer:

a)Work done by fireman=   2.15  Btu

b) Time t= 0.86 sec

Explanation:

Given that

Weight = 280 lbf

We know that 1 lbf = 4.44 N

so 280 lbf = 1245.5 N

Weight =1245.5 N

Height h = 60 ft

We know that

1 ft = 0.3048 m

So 60 ft = 18.28 m

 h =18.28 m

Power = 3.5 hp

We know that

1 hp =0.74 KW

So 3.5 hp = 2.61 KW

Power = 2.61 KJ/s

So the work done by fireman = Weight x h

Now by putting the values

Work done by fireman= 1245.5 x 18.28 J

Work done by fireman=   2267.74 J

Work done by fireman=   2.26774  KJ

We know that 1 Btu= 1.05 KJ

So   2.266 KJ = 2.15 Btu

Work done by fireman=   2.15  Btu

We know that ,rate of work is called power.

Power x time =  work

2.61 x t = 2.26

So t= 0.86 sec

How would you go about measuring the speed of a vehicle? What measurements would you have to take? What calculations would you h
White raven [17]

Answer:

For a body moving at a uniform velocity you can calculate the speed by dividing the distance traveled by the amount of time it took, for example one mile in 1/2 hour would give you 2 miles per hour. If the velocity is non-uniform all you can say is what the average speed is.

A sound wave has a frequency of 425 hz. what is the period of this wave? 0.00235 seconds 0.807 seconds 425 seconds 850 seconds
77julia77 [94]

The period of the sound wave at the given frequency is determined as 0.00235 second.

<h3>Period of the sound wave</h3>

The period of the sound wave at the given frequency is calculated as follows;

Period is reciprocal of frequency.

T = 1/f

T = 1/425

T = 0.00235 second

Thus, the period of the sound wave at the given frequency is determined as 0.00235 second.
