Answer: option c: It orbits beyond the Earth's atmosphere to avoid scattering of light.

Explanation:

Hubble space telescope orbits Earth and sends images of distant objects. The images formed by Hubble are better than the optical telescopes used on land. This is because the Hubble telescope is a space telescope. Light from the distant objects when reaches the land telescopes transmits through atmosphere, where scattering occurs. Some the light rays bounce back. This is avoided by the space telescope Hubble.

sammy [17]

Answer:

2.06 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of linear momentum, the sum of momentum before and after collision are equal. Considering this case where we have frictionless surface, no momentum is lost in the process.

Momentum before collision

Momentum is given by p=mv where m and v represent mass. The initial sum of momentum will be 9v+(27*0.5)=9v+13.5

Momentum after collision

The momentum after collision will be given by (9+27)*0.9=32.4

Relating the two then 9v+13.5=32.4

9v=18.5

V=2.055555555555555555555555555555555555555 m/s

Rounded off, v is approximately 2.06 m/s

A 104.328-kg baserunner slides into home base. He starts his slide moving at 8.451 m/s and 6.596 m from home base; when he cross
JulijaS [17]

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the baserunner and the ground is 0.51.

<h3>Coefficient of kinetic friction </h3>

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the base runner and the ground is calculated as follows;

μ = a/g

where;

  • a is acceleration
  • g is gravity

v² = u² + 2as

a = (v² - u²)/(2s)

a = (8.451² - 2.322²)/(2 x 6.596)

a = 5 m/s²

μ = 5/9.8

μ = 0.51

Thus, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the baserunner and the ground is 0.51.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

For a velocity versus time graph how do you know what the velocity is at a certain  time?

Ans: By drawing a line parallel to the y axis (Velocity axis) and perpendicular to the co-ordinate of the Time on the x axis (Time Axis). The point on the slope of the graph where this line intersects, will be the desired velocity at the certain time.

_____________________________________________________

How do you know the acceleration at a certain time?

Ans: We\ know\ that\ acceleration = \frac{Final\ velocity-Initial\ Velocity}{Time\ taken}

Hence,

By dividing the difference of the Final and Initial Velocity by the Time Taken, we could find the acceleration.

_________________________________________________________

How do you know the  Displacement at a certain time?

Ans: As Displacement equals to the area enclosed by the slope of the Velocity-Time Graph, By finding the area under the slope till the perpendicular at the desired time, we find the Displacement.
