Answer:

Weight and Mass !!!!!!

Explanation:

Galileo discovered that objects that are more dense, or have more mass, fall at a faster rate than less dense objects, due to this air resistance. A feather and brick dropped together. Air resistance causes the feather to fall more slowly.

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

v ’= v + v₀

a system can be another vehicle moving in the opposite direction.

Explanation:

In an inertial reference frame the speed of the vehicle is given by the Galileo transformational

v ’= v - v₀

where v 'is the speed with respect to the mobile system, which moves with constant speed, v is the speed with respect to the fixed system and vo is the speed of the mobile system.

The vehicle's speedometer measures the harvest of a fixed system on earth, in this system v decreases, for a system where v 'increases it has to be a system in which the mobile system moves in the negative direction of the x axis, whereby the transformation ratio is

v ’= v + v₀

Such a system can be another vehicle moving in the opposite direction.

From laboratory measurements, we know that a particular spectral line formed by hydrogen appears at a wavelength of 121.6 nanome

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

b) The star is moving away from us.

Explanation:

If an object moves toward us, the light waves it emits are compressed - the wavelength of the light will be shorter, making the light bluer. On the other hand, if an object moves away from us, the light waves are stretched, making it redder. If from laboratory measurements we know that a specific hydrogen spectral line appears at the wavelength of 121.6 nanometers (nm) and the spectrum of a particular star shows the same hydrogen line appearing at the wavelength of 121.8 nm, we can conclude that the star is moving away from npos, since the wavelength related to that star is more expanded.

A Ferris wheel on a California pier is 27 m high and rotates once every 32 seconds in the counterclockwise direction. When the w

A) 140 degrees

First of all, we need to find the angular velocity of the Ferris wheel. We know that its period is

T = 32 s

So the angular velocity is

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{32 s}=0.20 rad/s$

Assuming the wheel is moving at constant angular velocity, we can now calculate the angular displacement with respect to the initial position:

$\theta= \omega t$

and substituting t = 75 seconds, we find

$\theta= (0.20 rad/s)(75 s)=15 rad$

In degrees, it is

$15 rad: x = 2\pi rad : 360^{\circ}\\
x=\frac{(15 rad)(360^{\circ})}{2\pi}=860^{\circ} = 140^{\circ}$

So, the new position is 140 degrees from the initial position at the top.

B) 2.7 m/s

The tangential speed, v, of a point at the egde of the wheel is given by

$v=\omega r$

where we have

$\omega=0.20 rad/s$

r = d/2 = (27 m)/2=13.5 m is the radius of the wheel

Substituting into the equation, we find

$v=(0.20 rad/s)(13.5 m)=2.7 m/s$
