<u>Answer</u>:

The primary method by which the planets have been found around other stars in the galaxy is Kepler Space Telescope.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The primary method by which planets have been found around other stars in our beautiful Galaxy is the Kepler space telescope. Kepler launched Kepler Telescope in 2009 to help to find terrestrial planets super-earth etc.

This is the telescope which measures the amount of light coming from a star and detects a slight variation in brightness as a planet passes in front. Using this technique NASA's Kepler Mission has founded thousands of candidate planet in this world.

Moustapha jones drives east at 100km/hr for 3 hours then back west at 80km/hr for 1.5 hours. which pair of answers gives his ave

olya-2409 [2.1K]

The average speed of the car is 93.33 km/hr and the average velocity of the car is 40 km/hr.

The total distance cover in east direction is=100*3=300 km

The total distance cover in the west direction=80*1.5=120 km

The total distance covered is =300+120=420 km

And Total displacement of the car is =300-120=180 km

As we know that the average speed is given as

Avg Speed =Total Distance / Total time

=420/4.5=93.33 km/hr

As we know that the average velocity is given as

Avg Speed =Total Displacement/ Total time

=180/4.5=40 km/hr

Therefore, The average speed of the car is 93.33 km/hr and the average velocity of the car is 40 km/hr.

a car is moving 8.80 m/s when it begins to accelerate at 2.45 m/s^2. how much time does it take to trav 138m. please help me (':

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

7.6 s

Explanation:

Considering kinematics formula for final velocity as

$v^{2}=u^{2}+2as$

Where v and u are final and initial velocities, a is acceleration and s is distance moved.

Making v the subject then

$v=\sqrt{u^{2}+2as}$

Substituting 8.8 m/s for u, 138 m for s and 2.45 m/s2 for a then

$v=\sqrt{8.8^{2}+2*2.45*138}\\v=27.45 m/s$

Also, v=u+at and making t the subject of the formula

$t=\frac {v-u}{a}$

Substituting 27.45 m/s for v, 8.8 m/s for u and 2.45 m/s for a then

$t=\frac {27.45-8.8}{2.45}=7.6122448979591\approx 7.6s$

Therefore, it needs 7.6 seconds to travel

What happens whenever energy is transformed from one form to another?

andriy [413]

Answer:

Energy transformation is when energy changes from one form to another – like in a hydroelectric dam that transforms the kinetic energy of water into electrical energy. While energy can be transferred or transformed, the total amount of energy does not change – this is called energy conservation.
