Your spaceship has just crashed on the moon. You were scheduled to rendezvous with a mother ship 200 miles away on the lighted s

urface of the moon, but the rough landing has ruined your ship and destroyed all the equipment on board except for the 15 items listed below. Your crew’s survival depends on reaching the mother ship, so you must choose the most critical items available for the 200-mile trip. Your task is to rank the 15 items in terms of their importance for survival. Place a number 1 by the most important item, number 2 by the second most important, and so on, through number 15, the least important.

Which of the following represents the velocity of an object?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:Velocity can be represented by an arrow, with the length of the arrow representing speed and the way the arrow points representing direction. Objects have the same velocity only if they are moving at the same speed and in the same direction. ... The SI unit for velocity is m/s, plus the direction the object is traveling.

Irina-Kira [14]
We simply asked to name three uses for mercury.
The most common and well-known use of mercury is the production of thermometers. It's property to stay liquid at room temperature makes it ideal for a temperature indicator. However, the use of mercury is thermometers has been phased out due to health hazards.
It is also used to form an amalgam which is the result of its combination with silver or gold. Mercury has been used to mine gold and silver. This application has also been phased out.
Today's use of mercury includes mercury-vapor lamps which are the bright lamps used in high-ways.

An elevator (mass 4100 kg) is to be designed so that the maximum acceleration is 0.0400g. what is the maximum force the motor sh
melomori [17]

Answer:

The maximum force on the supporting cable is 80688 N.

The minimum force on the supporting cable is -164 N.

Explanation:

For maximum force movement of elevator is in upward direction. Thus, equation of motion is given by,

ma = T - mg

where m is the mass of elevator

a is acceleration of elevator

g is acceleration due to gravity

T is the maximum tension in the supporting cable

T = ma + mg

T = m (a + g)

T = 4100 ( 0.04g + 9.8)

T = 80688 N

This is the maximum force on the supporting cable.

For minimum force movement of elevator is in downward direction. Thus, equation of motion is given by,

ma = T - mg

where m is the mass of elevator

a= -0.04g is acceleration of elevator because elevator is moving downward

g is acceleration due to gravity

T is the minimum tension in the supporting cable

T = ma + mg

T = m (a + g)

T = 4100 ( 9.8 - 0.04g)

T = -164 N

This is the minimum force on the supporting cable.
