If the Sun were scaled down to the size of a grapefruit, about how far would you have to walk from our classroom to reach Alpha

Centauri, the closest star?
Physics
1 answer:
Burka [1]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

2000 miles.

Explanation:

It's the Colorado scale model, in which sun is taken as the grapefruit and the distances are measured for different planets with respect to sun just for understanding.

Both retinal disparity and convergence increase as an object gets closer to the individual.
Gnom [1K]
That statement is true

Retinal disparity : space between your eyes that allow binocular vision to create depth perception

Retinal Convergence : Space between your eyes that signal visual moves to the retina

They both will increases as an object get closer to the individual, allowing them acknowledge and observe the existence of the object

Fluid clutches are used on equipment that is subjected to?
mamaluj [8]
Fluid clutches are used on equipment that is subjected to higher torque per unit volume. This type of clutch makes use of an incompressible fluid like oil in order to transfer the input of a movement from a pedal and cylinder to an actuating cylinder. Releasing the this clutch would stop the transfer of power but still allowing the engine to turn continuously.

A scene in a movie has a stuntman falling through a floor onto a bed in the room below. The plan is to have the actor fall on hi
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to conservation of energy, the potential energy (PE) of the mass at a height of 3.32 m will be transformed into elastic potential energy (EPE) when it falls on the mattress:

PE = EPE

m · g · h = 1/2 k · x²

Where:

m = mass.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

h = height.

k = spring constant.

x = compression distance

The maximum compression distance is 0.1289 m, then, the maximum elastic potential energy will be the following:

EPE =1/2 k · x²

EPE = 1/2 · 65144 N/m · (0.1289 m)² = 541.2 J

Then, using the equation of gravitational potential energy:

PE = m · g · h =  541.2 J

m =  541.2 J/ g · h

m = 541.2 kg · m²/s² / (9.8 m/s² · 3.32 m)

m = 16.6 kg

The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg.

If the impulse acting on an object is 100n waht is force acting on it if the time 1 s
lutik1710 [3]

force = 100 N

  • Impulse ( N.s ) : Force ( N ) * Time ( s )

⇒ 100 N.s = force * 1 s

⇒ force = 100/1

⇒ force = 100 N
