The amount of light a star gives off is called . . -apparent magnitude . . -visibility . . -absolute magnitude . . -light sensit
Gemiola [76]
The amount of light that a star gives off is actually brightness. But given the choices, I think it is the measure of the light that is asked. The answer is Absolute magnitude. This is the measure of the magnitude of brightness. This is usually used in celestial objects. <span>

A car is traveling at 21.0 m/s. It slows to a stop at a constant rate over 5.00s. How far does the car travel during those 5.00
Doss [256]

Answer:

d = 105 m

Explanation:

Speed of a car, v = 21 m/s

We need to find the distance traveled by the dar during those 5 s before it stops. Let the distance is d. It can be calculated as :

d = v × t

d = 21 m/s × 5 s

d = 105 m

So, it will cover 105 m before it stops.

A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 g bullet, traveling horizontally, strikes the block and becomes embed
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

A. <u>200m/s</u>

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of momentum expressed as;

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses of the object

u1 and u2 are the respective velocities

v is the common velocity

Given

m1 = 1.2kg

u1 = 0m/s (block is a stationary object)

m2 = 50g= 0.05kg

u2 = ?

v = 8.0m/s

Substitute the values into the formula and get u2 (speed of the bullet before hitting the block)

1.2(0)+0.05u2 = (1.2 + 0.05)(8)

0.05u2 = 1.25(8)

0.05u2 = 10

u2 = 10/0.05

u2 = 200m/s

Hence the speed of the bullet before it hit the block is <u>200m/s</u>
