Answer:
- the age of the oldest stars
- patterns of background radiation
- how fast distant galaxies are moving away from us
Explanation:
According to the NASA, astronomers can estimate how old the universe is by comparing the age of the oldest stars and the rate of expansion of the universe. The rate of expansion of the universe is based on the Big Bang theory and it states that our universe is continuously expanding since it first developed. Astronomers measure Cosmic Microwave Background radiation resulting from the Big Bang.
Answer:
286.7 m
Explanation:
So we are assuming the PE of the falcon is converted to KE
KE = PE
1/2 (.480)(75)^2 = .480 (9.81)(h ) solve for h = 286.7 m
Here's a fun and useful factoid:
The ratio of the voltages on a transformer is the same
as the ratio of the number of turns in each winding.
So the ratio of (345 to the secondary turns) is (115V to 24V).
That's a proportion.
(115/24) = (345/x)
I'll bet you can take it and solve it from here.
Just cross-multiply in the proportion and etc. etc.
Gas has no defined shape or defined volume. Which means that a gas would be able to expand to fill its container.
Answers:
a) 154.08 m/s=554.68 km/h
b) 108 m/s=388.8 km/h
Explanation:
<u>The complete question is written below:

<em>In 1977 off the coast of Australia, the fastest speed by a vessel on the water was achieved. If this vessel were to undergo an average acceleration of
, it would go from rest to its top speed in 85.6 s. </em>
<em>a) What was the speed of the vessel?
</em>
<em>
</em>
<em>b) If the vessel in the sample problem accelerates for 1.00 min, what will its speed be after that minute? </em>
<em></em>
<em>Calculate the answers in both meters per second and kilometers per hour</em>
<em></em>
a) The average acceleration
is expressed as:
(1)
Where:
is the variation of velocity in a given time
, which is the difference between the final velocity
and the initial velocity
(because it starts from rest).

Isolating
from (1):
(2)
(3)
(4)
If
and
then:
(4)
b) Now we need to find the final velocity when
