Answer:

C. Both a and b

Explanation:

Firstly, persons and objects in a moving plane as described in this question, are moving at the same speed as the plane even if there is no individual movement of these objects.

However, this question describes a person sitting still in a moving plane. This means that;

- The person is motionless in relation to everything in the plane i.e the person is not moving even if other things in the plane are.

- The person is in motion compared to everything on the ground i.e. the person is moving at the same speed as the plane, hence, in comparison with the ground, the person is moving.

Therefore, options A and B are correct

How long does it take to change a flat plain into mountains?

ss7ja [257]

It would take millions of years to form a mountain as plates move very slowly and to form it first one plate should climb upon another. After this very slowly this hill will convert into a mountain.

magine an astronaut on an extrasolar planet, standing on a sheer cliff 50.0 m high. She is so happy to be on a different planet,

Mama L [17]

Answer:

$\Delta t=(\frac{20}{g'}+\sqrt{\frac{400}{g'^2}+\frac{100}{g'} } )-(\frac{20}{g}+\sqrt{\frac{400}{g^2}+\frac{100}{g} } )$

Explanation:

Given:

height above which the rock is thrown up, $\Delta h=50\ m$

initial velocity of projection, $u=20\ m.s^{-1}$

let the gravity on the other planet be g'

The time taken by the rock to reach the top height on the exoplanet:

$v=u+g'.t'$

where:

$v=$ final velocity at the top height = 0 $m.s^{-1}$

$0=20-g'.t'$ (-ve sign to indicate that acceleration acts opposite to the velocity)

$t'=\frac{20}{g'}\ s$

The time taken by the rock to reach the top height on the earth:

$v=u+g.t$

$0=20-g.t$

$t=\frac{20}{g} \ s$

Height reached by the rock above the point of throwing on the exoplanet:

$v^2=u^2+2g'.h'$

where:

$v=$ final velocity at the top height = 0 $m.s^{-1}$

$0^2=20^2-2\times g'.h'$

$h'=\frac{200}{g'}\ m$

Height reached by the rock above the point of throwing on the earth:

$v^2=u^2+2g.h$

$0^2=20^2-2g.h$

$h=\frac{200}{g}\ m$

The time taken by the rock to fall from the highest point to the ground on the exoplanet:

$(50+h')=u.t_f'+\frac{1}{2} g'.t_f'^2$ (during falling it falls below the cliff)

here:

$u=$ initial velocity= 0 $m.s^{-1}$

$\frac{200}{g'}+50 =0+\frac{1}{2} g'.t_f'^2$

$t_f'^2=\frac{400}{g'^2}+\frac{100}{g'}$

$t_f'=\sqrt{\frac{400}{g'^2}+\frac{100}{g'} }$

Similarly on earth:

$t_f=\sqrt{\frac{400}{g^2}+\frac{100}{g} }$

Now the required time difference:

$\Delta t=(t'+t_f')-(t+t_f)$

$\Delta t=(\frac{20}{g'}+\sqrt{\frac{400}{g'^2}+\frac{100}{g'} } )-(\frac{20}{g}+\sqrt{\frac{400}{g^2}+\frac{100}{g} } )$

Explain how a rotating electric fan might be used to model the atom. explain how the rotating fan is unlike an atom.

quester [9]

A fan may be used to model an atom because the fan blades form something similar to a electron cloud. But there is really nothing to model the neutrons and protons. Also the fan is flat like where an atom is more 3-D sphere-like.

hope this helps

Ur welcome

have a great day (:
