Answer:

4 Newtons

Explanation:

I think it's 4 because mechanical advantage = output force/input force
So, it would be 60/15, which is 4 newtons

The nearest star to the Earth is the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri, at a distance of 4.218 light-years. Convert this distance

alukav5142 [94]

Explanation:

The nearest star to the Earth is the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri, at a distance of 4.218 light-years.

Light year is the unit of distance covered by the heavenly bodies. 1 light year is equal to :

$1\ light\ year=3.72\times 10^{17}\ inches$

So, $4.218\ light\ year=4.218\times 3.72\times 10^{17}\ inches$

$4.218\ light\ year=1.56\times 10^{18}\ inches$

We need to convert 4.218 light-years barley corns.

Since, 1 barleycorn = 1/3 inch

$1\ inch=3\ barleycorn$

$1.56\times 10^{18}\ inches=3\times 1.56\times 10^{18}=4.68\times 10^{18}\ barleycorn$

So, the nearest star to the Earth is at a distance of $4.68\times 10^{18}\ barleycorn$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A 2800 kg truck moving at 12 m/s to the right hits a stopped 1100 kg car. What is the combined velocity the moment they stick to

leva [86]

Answer:

The combined velocity is 8.61 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a truck, m = 2800 kg

Initial speed of truck, u = 12 m/s

The mass of a car, m' = 1100 kg

Initial speed of the car, u' = 0

We need to find the combined velocity the moment they stick together. Let it is V. Using the conservation of momentum.

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{2800\times 12+0}{2800+1100}\\\\V=8.61\ m/s$

So, the combined velocity is 8.61 m/s.
