Answer:

The sailboat moves southward at a force of 1000 Newton

Explanation:

The sailboat is moving south at 2500 newtons. The opposite force is only 1500 newtons, which is less than 2500 units. The greater force cancels out the lesser force. In order for the boat to be stopped or pushed back, the water and air resistance would of had to of been greater than or equal to 2500 Newtons. Because of this opposite force, the boat continues to move but with a lesser amount of force. You can use subtraction to find the remaining force the boat has.

2500 Newtons - 1500 Newtons = 1000 Newtons

What is the square root of 1.45?<br><br> Brainliest will be given for the correct answer.
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

√1.45 = 1.2041594578792

Explanation:

Step 1:

Divide the number (1.45) by 2 to get the first guess for the square root .

Step 2:

Divide 1.45 by the previous result. d = 1.45/0.725 = 2.

Average this value (d) with that of step 1: (2 + 0.725)/2 = 1.3625

previous value = 0.725 - 1.3625 = 0.6375.

0.6375 > 0.001

Now we repeat the step

Step 3:

Divide 1.45 by the previous result. d = 1.45/1.3625 = 1.0642201835.

Average this value (d) with that of step 2: (1.0642201835 + 1.3625)/2 = 1.2133600918

Error = new guess - previous value = 1.3625 - 1.2133600918 = 0.1491399082.

0.1491399082 > 0.001.

Step 4:

Divide 1.45 by the previous result. d = 1.45/1.2133600918 = 1.1950285903.

Average this value (d) with that of step 3: (1.1950285903 + 1.2133600918)/2 = 1.2041943411 (new guess).

Error = new guess - previous value = 1.2133600918 - 1.2041943411 = 0.0091657507.

0.0091657507 > 0.001.

Step 5:

Divide 1.45 by the previous result. d = 1.45/1.2041943411 = 1.2041245757.

Average this value (d) with that of step 4: (1.2041245757 + 1.2041943411)/2 = 1.2041594584

- previous value = 1.2041943411 - 1.2041594584 = 0.0000348827.

0.0000348827 <= 0.001. accuracy, we stop the iterations and use 1.2041594584 as the square root.

Which of hubbie’s findings supported the Big Bang theory? Check all that apply
poizon [28]

Answer:

  1. There are billions of galaxies in the universe, not just one.
  2. The universe formed from a central point.
  3. Most galaxies in the universe are moving away from Earth.

Explanation:

  • Hubble's theory is a model of the observable universe and represents the earliest form of evolution of the universe in the form of a big bang. The process of large-scale evolution and origin and growth of the universe.
  • It explains the development of the universe from an ingle bang where all the galaxies spread and are still growing further apart from each other.
  • It explains the formation of the university from a single point in the history of time. It also explains the formation of galaxies in the universe such as those of the spiral and elliptical ones. How the galaxies and planets came into the formation from this one single point.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Answers to numbers (Somebody else do another half)

1. If I could do something I've never done before, it'd be sky diving. I would want to go sky diving for the thrill of falling and descending back to Earth from a great height. Also, trying new activities is awesome, so why not do as much as you can while you're still here?

2. Pollution is bad because it kills the environment and people around us. Pollution may muddy landscapes, poison soils and waterways, or kill plants and animals. Humans are also regularly harmed by pollution. Long-term exposure to air pollution, for example, can lead to chronic respiratory disease, lung cancer and other diseases.

3. If I could go back to any place in time, I would stay right where I am. The world is already bad enough with political issues, protests, fires etc. Going back in time would do nothing but change the flow and disrupt how the world is working.
