Answer:

a moving object will keep moving if not stopped

the sun being at the center of the solar system

Explanation:

Galileo is known for being the first person make a telescope, there fore being the first person to see that the sun is in the center of the solar system. he also came up with the theory that if something is pushed, it would keep moving until stopped by another force. For example, say you drop your pencil, it keeps falling until it hits the ground. That is exactly what Galileo did in his Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment and found that theory to be true.

Answer: unspecific

Explanation:

you should always be specific with your goals, say someones goal is to make it to state for swimming, he/she should be specific to the event in which they want to go to state in.

Answer:

A) 1568.60 Hz

B) 1437.15 Hz

Explanation:

This change is frequency happens due to doppler effect

The Doppler effect is the change in frequency of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source

$f_(observed)=\frac{(c+-V_r)}{(C+-V_s)} *f_(emmited)\\$

where

C = the propagation speed of waves in the medium;

Vr= is the speed of the receiver relative to the medium,(added to C, if the receiver is moving towards the source, subtracted if the receiver is moving away from the source;

Vs= the speed of the source relative to the medium, added to C, if the source is moving away from the receiver, subtracted if the source is moving towards the receiver.

A) Here the Source is moving towards the receiver(C-Vs)

and the receiver is standing still (Vr=0) therefore the observed frequency should get higher

$f_(observed)=\frac{C}{C-V_s} *f_(emmited)\\=\frac{343}{343-15}*1500\\ =1568.60 Hz$

B)Here the Source is moving away the receiver(C+Vs)

and the receiver is still not moving (Vr=0) therefore the observed frequency should be lesser

$f_(observed)=\frac{C}{C+V_s} *f_(emmited)\\=\frac{343}{343+15}*1500\\ =1437.15 Hz$

During a braking test, a car is brought to rest beginning from an initial speed of 60 mi/hr in a distance of 120 ft. With the sa

maw [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial speed $u=60\ mi/hr\approx 88\ ft/s$

distance traveled before coming to rest $d_1=120\ ft$

using equation of motion

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

$0-(88)^2=2\times a\times 120---1$

for $u_2=80\ mi/hr\approx 117.33\ ft/s$

using same relation we get

$0-(117.33)^2=2\times a\times (d_2)----2$

divide 1 and 2 we get

$(\frac{88}{117.33})^2=\frac{120}{d_2}$

$d_2=213.32\ ft$

So a distance if 213.32 ft is required to stop the vehicle with 80 mph speed

weqwewe [10]

The question doesn't describe any experiment. If the same experiment is repeated, no matter how many times, the acceleration due to gravity will remain the same as it was during the non-existent original experiment, and will have no effect on anything.
