What is the question? if you are looking for the initial velocity of the projectile, then V escape of Earth = 11.2 km / s. divided by three
Vi = 3.73 km/s

What do the movements of stars and galaxies tell astronomers about how the universe formed?
natulia [17]
This could be Hubble's law, or something related to it. I think there's a possibly Doppler RED SHIFT in the optical spectra of stars etc as observed on the earth. It seems that they are accelerating away from the earth, and that the further away they are the faster they are moving.
It seems that this has been connected to the idea of "The Big Bang" theory of the origin of the universe which seems to have superceded Professor Sir Fred Hoye's Steady State theory of the universe.
There's some Special Relativity in this lot, too.

A 23 g bullet traveling at 230 m/s penetrates a 2.0 kg block of wood and emerges cleanly at 170 m/s. If the block is stationary
Ann [662]

The distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is 0.16 m.

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of the bullet, m = 23 g = 0.023 g</em>
  • <em>speed of the bullet, u = 230 m/s</em>
  • <em>mass of the wood, m = 2 kg</em>
  • <em>final speed of the bullet, v = 170 m/s</em>
  • <em>coefficient of friction, μ = 0.15</em>

The final velocity of the wood after the bullet hits is calculated as follows;

m_1u_1 + m_2 u_2 = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2\\\\0.023(230) + 2(0) = 0.023(170) + 2v_2\\\\5.29 = 3.91 + 2v_2\\\\2v_2 = 1.38\\\\v_2 = \frac{1.38}{2} = 0.69 \ m/s

The acceleration of the wood is calculated as follows;

\mu = \frac{a}{g} \\\\a = \mu g\\\\a = 0.15 \times 9.8\\\\a = 1.47 \ m/s^2

The distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is calculated as follows;

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2as\\\\v^2 = 0 + 2as\\\\v^2 = 2as\\\\s = \frac{v^2}{2a} \\\\s = \frac{(0.69)^2}{2(1.47)} \\\\s = 0.16 \ m

Thus, the distance traveled by the wood after the bullet emerges is 0.16 m.

A circus act involves a trapeze artist and a baby elephant. They are going to balance on a teeter-totter that is 10 meters long
elena-s [515]

Answer:

Explanation:

Balance point will be achieved as soon as the weight of the baby elephant creates torque equal to torque created by weight of woman about the pivot. torque by weight of woman

weight x distance from pivot

= 500x 5

= 2500 Nm

torque by weight of baby woman , d be distance of baby elephant from pivot at the time of balance

= 2500x d

for equilibrium

2500 d = 2500

d = 1 m

So elephant will have to walk up to 1 m close to pivot or middle point.
