Answer: A reference point

Explanation: If an object is in motion then its distance from another object is changing. Whether an object is moving or not depends on your point of view. For example, a woman riding on a bus is not moving in relation to the seat she is sitting on, but she is moving in relation to the buildings the bus passes. A reference point is a place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion. An object is in motion if it changes position relative to a reference point. You assume that the reference point is stationary, or not moving.

How are light years used to measure distances in the universe

FinnZ [79.3K]

A light year is a unit of distance. It is a distance that light can travel in a years time which is six trillion miles. It is used to measure the distances in space. To take one example, the distance to the next nearest big galaxy, the Andromeda Galaxy, from earth is 21,000,000,000,000,000,000 km.

An Airbus A350 is initially moving down the runway at 6.0 m/s preparing for takeoff. The pilot pulls on the throttle so that the

Answer:

t=67.7s

Explanation:

From this question we know that:

Vo = 6m/s

a = 1.8 m/s2

D = 1500m

And we also know that:

$X=V_{o}*t + \frac{a*t^{2}}{2}$ Replacing the known values:

$1500=6t+0.9*t^{2}$ Solving for t we get 2 possible answers:

t1 = -44.3s and t2 = 67.7s Since negative time represents an instant before the beginning of the movement, t1 is discarded. So, the final answer is:

t = 67.7s

In order to attain orbit around earth, the ATLAS-V rocket must accelerate up to a

IrinaK [193]

A) average acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity / time

= 7700 - 0 / 11

= 700ms^-2

B) force = mass x acceleration

= (3.05 x 105) x 700

= 320.25 x 700

= 224,175N

Answer:

V=14.9 m/s

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we are going to use the formulas of parabolic motion.

The velocity X-component of the ball is given by:

$Vx=V*cos(\alpha)\\Vx=15.7*cos(31^o)=13.5m/s$
