The ancient astronomers think areas of the moon called mares might be Seas.

Option D  

<u>Explanation</u>:

The surface area of Earth's moon is dark, large, and is basaltic plains which are formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. They were dubbed as Maria, "ancient astronomers" who misunderstood them as actual seas. They are less reflective than highlands. Due to their iron-rich composition, they tend to appear dark from the naked eye. The Maria cover approximately about 16% of surface mostly on side that is visible from Earth. The few Maria on side that is too far are much smaller and residing mostly in very large craters. The ancient astronomers mistook the surface area as look like actual seas.

13) Can two nonzero perpendicular vectors be added together so their sum is zero? Explain.
Neporo4naja [7]

In order for two vectors to add to zero, they must have the same magnitude and point in opposite directions.

Two perpendicular vectors, by definition, make a right angle with each other whereas two vectors pointing in opposite directions form a straight line.

Because of this, two perpendicular vectors with nonzero magnitudes will never add to zero.

You are on the roof of a building, 46.0 m above the ground. Your friend, who is 1.80 m tall, is standing next to the building. W
Trava [24]

Answer:

29.448 ms^{-1}

Explanation:

first determine the distance from the top of the roof to the friends head.

Since he is 1.80 min height ,

distance =  46.0-1.80

              = 44.2 m

egg is dropped from rest means that its starting velocity is zero. It has to travel 44.2 m subjected to the gravitational acceleration

Applying  Motion equation

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

where v= end velocity (speed)

           u=Starting velocity

           a= acceleration

           s= Distance

(Let gravitational acceleration assumed as 9.81 ms^{-2}

v^{2} =0^{2} +2*9.81*44.2\\v^{2} =867.204\\v=\sqrt{867.204}  \\v=29.448  ms^{-1}

Choose the correct definitions of speed, velocity, and acceleration. Check all that apply. Acceleration tells us in which direct
QveST [7]

We have thatThe options that define Speed, Velocity,Acceleration.

  • Speed is used to describe how fast the object is moving.
  • Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in time.
  • Velocity is used to describe how fast the object is moving and tells us in which direction it is going.

Options

B,D,E

From the question we are told

Choose the correct definitions of speed, velocity, and acceleration. Check all that apply.

  • Acceleration tells us in which direction the object is going. Speed is the rate of change of velocity in time.
  • Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in time.
  • Velocity is used to describe changes in the movement direction of the object. Acceleration tells us how far the object will go in a certain amount of time.
  • Velocity is used to describe how fast the object is moving and tells us in which direction it is going.
  • Speed is used to describe how fast the object is moving.
  • Velocity is the rate of change of speed in time.

Speed is used to describe how fast the object is moving and tells us in which direction it is going.

Generally

  • Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in time.
  • Velocity is used to describe how fast the object is moving and tells us in which direction it is going.
  • Speed is used to describe how fast the object is moving without its direction in consideration

Hence

The options that define Speed, Velocity,Acceleration.

  • Speed is used to describe how fast the object is moving.
  • Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in time.
  • Velocity is used to describe how fast the object is moving and tells us in which direction it is going.

Options

B,D,E
