The metric unit of force is the

grandymaker [24]

The unit of force is the 'Newton'.

1 newton is the force that accelerates 1 kilogram of mass
at the rate of 1 meter per second-squared.

1 N = 1 kg-m/s²

-- A force of 1 pound is about 4.448 newtons.

-- A force of 1 newton is about 3.6 ounces.

Here is the full question

Suppose there are 10,000 civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy. If the civilizations were randomly distributed throughout the disk of the galaxy, about how far (on average) would it be to the nearest civilization?

(Hint: Start by finding the area of the Milky Way's disk, assuming that it is circular and 100,000 light-years in diameter. Then find the average area per civilization, and use the distance across this area to estimate the distance between civilizations.)

Answer:

1000 light-years (ly)

Explanation:

If we go by the hint; The area of the disk can be expressed as:

$A = \pi (\frac{D}{2})^2$

where D = 100, 000 ly

Let's divide the Area by the number of civilization; if we do that ; we will be able to get 'n' disk that is randomly distributed; so ;

$d= \frac{A}{N} =\frac{\pi (\frac{D}{2})^2 }{10, 000}$

The distance between each disk is further calculated by finding the radius of the density which is shown as follows:

$d = \pi r^2 e$

$r^2_e= \frac{d}{\pi}$

$r_e = \sqrt{\frac{d}{\pi} }$

replacing d = $\frac{\pi (\frac{D}{2})^2 }{10, 000}$ in the equation above; we have:

$r_e = \sqrt{\frac{\frac{\pi (\frac{D}{2})^2 }{10, 000}}{\pi} }$

$r_e = \sqrt{\frac{(\frac{D}{2})^2 }{10, 000}}$

$r_e = \sqrt{\frac{(\frac{100,000}{2})^2 }{10, 000}}$

$r_e = 500 ly$

The distance (s) between each civilization = $2(r_e)$

= 2 (500 ly)

= 1000 light-years (ly)

A plane drops a hamper of medical supplies from a height of 5000 m during a practice run over the ocean. The plane’s horizontal

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

346.70015 m/s

Explanation:

In the x axis speed is

$v_x=149\ m/s$

In the y axis

$v_y=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5000}$

The resultant velocity is given by

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{149^2+2\times 9.8\times 5000}\\\Rightarrow v=346.70015\ m/s$

The magnitude of the overall velocity of the hamper at the instant it strikes the surface of the ocean is 346.70015 m/s

On a highway, a car is driven 80. kilometers

nydimaria [60]

The average speed of the car for the entire trip can be calculate by using:

$v=\frac{S}{t}$

where S is the total distance covered by the car, and t is the total time taken.

The total distance travelled by the car is:

$S=80 km+50 km+40 km=170 km$

while the total time taken is:

$t=1.00 h+0.50 h+0.50 h=2.00 h$

so, the average speed of the car is:

$v=\frac{S}{t}=\frac{170 km}{2.00 h}=85 km/h$

so, the correct answer is (3) 85 km/h.
