<span>TRUE

The force that opposes the movement of an object through water is called drag. This is a type of frictional force. This force normally depends on the density and the viscosity of the fluid in question. The liquid which has more density and more viscosity or stickiness will produce a greater amount of drag force on an object than a fluid that is less dense and less viscous in nature.  River water normally has less drag than that of sea water. </span><span> <span>

Astronaut Rob leaves Earth in a spaceship at a speed of 0.960crelative to an observer onEarth. Rob's destination is a star syste
Slav-nsk [51]

To solve this problem we will use the mathematical definition of the light years in metric terms, from there, through the kinematic equations of motion we will find the distance traveled as a function of the speed in proportion to the elapsed time. Therefore we have to

1Ly =9.4605284*10^{15}m \rightarrow 'Ly'means  Light Year

Then

14.4Ly = 1.36231609*10^{17} m

If we have that

v= \frac{x}{t} \rightarrow t = \frac{x}{t}

Where,

v = Velocity

x = Displacement

t = Time

We have that

t = \frac{1.36231609*10^{17}}{0.96c} \rightarrow c= Speed of light

t = \frac{1.36231609*10^{17}}{0.96(3*10^8)}

t= 454105363 s (\frac{1hour}{3600s})

t= 126140 hours(\frac{1day}{24hours})

t= 5255.85 days(\frac{1 year}{365days})

t = 14.399 years

Therefore will take 14.399 years

What does it mean when work is positive?
jenyasd209 [6]
Both positive work and negative work have meaning: Positive work follows when the force has a component parallel to the displacement. Positive work adds energy to a system. Negative work follows when the force has a component opposite or against the displacement.

A solution is prepared by dissolving 49.3 g of KBr in enough water to form 473 mL of solution. Calculate the mass % of KBr in th
son4ous [18]

Answer:

9.31%

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of KBr=49.3 g

Volume of solution=473 mL

Density of solution =1.12g/mL

We have to find the mass% of KBr.

Mass =volume\times density

Using the formula

Mass of solution=1.12\times 473=529.76 g

Mass % of KBr=\frac{mass\;of\;KBr}{Total\;mass\;of\;solution}\times 100

Mass % of KBr=\frac{49.3}{529.76}\times 100

Mass % of KBr=9.31%

Hence, the mass% of KBr=9.31%

1. What is the acceleration of a car that goes from 20 Km/hr to 100 km/hr in 8 seconds?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

10 :)

You have to divide the difference of speed and divide it by the time. So 100-20 would be 80, and if you divide that by 8 it would be 10.

Hope this helps.

Which telescopes must be placed in orbit around earth in order to observe short-wavelength radiation?.
son4ous [18]

Space telescopes must be placed in orbit around earth in order to observe short-wavelength radiation.

<h3>What is telescope?</h3>

A telescope is an optical instrument that uses lenses, curved mirrors, or a combination of both to watch distant objects.

When atoms in a gas reach this temperature, they travel so quickly that when they collide, they release X-ray photons with wavelengths smaller than 10 nanometers.

Because the Earth's atmosphere prevents all X-rays from space, these wavelengths must be seen using space telescopes.

To study short-wavelength radiation, space telescopes must be put in orbit around the Earth.

Hence, space telescope is the correct answer.

To learn more about the telescope, refer:
