Answer:

The one satellite has all the momentum before they connect, and then afterwards they share it.

Explanation:

I took the test and I got it correct.

Hope this helps! :)

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The one satellite has all the momentum before they connect, and then afterwards they share it. For a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.

What are the effects of ultraviolet sun rays????

pychu [463]

Answer: UV rays, either from the sun or from artificial sources like tanning beds, can cause sunburn. Exposure to UV rays can cause premature aging of the skin and signs of sun damage such as wrinkles, leathery skin, liver spots, actinic keratosis, and solar elastosis. UV rays can also cause eye problems.

Explanation: Uv means ultraviolet

50.0 meters away from a building. Tip of the building makes an angle of 63.0° with the horizontal. What is the height of the bui

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

98.13m

Explanation:

Complete question

Daniel is 50.0 meters away from a building. Tip of the building makes an angle of 63.0° with the horizontal. What is the height of the building

CHECK THE ATTACHMENT

From the figure, using trigonometry

Tan(θ ) = opposite/adjacent

Where Angle (θ )= 63°

Opposite= X = height of the building

Adjacent= 50 m

Then substitute the values we have

Tan(63)= X/50

1.9626= X/50

X= 1.9626 × 50

X= 98.13m

Hence, the height of the building is 98.13m

What happens to the pressure in all parts of a confined fluid if the pressure in one part is increased?

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The pressure will be transmitted equally to all other parts of the confined fluid causing a general increase in pressure throughout the container.

Explanation:

This is in line with pascal's law of pressure which states that the pressure exerted on a given mass of fluid is transmitted undiminished to other parts of the fluid.

a man is standing near the edge of a cliff 85 meters high. he throws a stone upward vertically with an intial velocity of 10 m/s

alex41 [277]

Answer:

h = 90.10 m

Explanation:

Given that,

A man is standing near the edge of a cliff 85 meters high, h₀ = 85 m

The initial speed of the stone, u = 10 m/s

The path followed by the projectile is given by :

$h(t)=-4.9t^2+10t+85$ ....(1)

For maximum height,

Put dh/dt = 0

So,

$\dfrac{dh}{dt}=-9.8t+10=0\\\\t=\dfrac{10}{9.8}\\\\=1.02\ s$

Put the value of t in equation (1).

$h(t)=-4.9(1.02)^2+10(1.02)+85\\\\=90.10\ m$

So, the maximum height of the stone is equal to 90.10 m.
