Answer:

a=20\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 40 m/s

Time, t = 2 s

We need to find the acceleration of the aircraft. We know that, acceleration is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So,

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{40-0}{2}\\\\=20\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the aircraft is 20\ m/s^2.

Answered Oct 16

What, it isn’t?!

Sorry, I had to.

As far as I have read and understood, the Sumerians and later the Babylonians both had astronomical calendars that already differentiated planets and stars. Earth was not the center to them, the Sun likely was. That was around 2,200 - 1,600 BC.

After that, Greek philosopher Aristarchus of Samos (310 - 230 BC) was the first (recorded) to have believed the solar system was organized around the Sun, rather than the Earth. His heliocentric model was unpopular during Aristarchus’ lifetime, although it would inspire astronomers centuries later, such as Copernicus and Galileo.

Now, there are numerous archeological findings (cave paintings) and studies, that all suggest an understanding of complex astronomy in prehistoric times dating back as far as 40,000 years. This also explains how early, prehistoric migrants may have navigated the seas.

Select the situation for which the torque is the smallest.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

e. The torque is the same for all cases.

Explanation:

The formula for torque is:

τ = Fr

where,

τ = Torque

F = Force = Weight (in this case) = mg

r = perpendicular distance between force an axis of rotation

Therefore,

τ = mgr

a)

Here,

m = 200 kg

r = 2.5 m

Therefore,

τ = (200 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(2.5 m)

<u>τ = 4900 N.m</u>

<u></u>

b)

Here,

m = 20 kg

r = 25 m

Therefore,

τ = (20 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(25 m)

<u>τ = 4900 N.m</u>

<u></u>

c)

Here,

m = 8 kg

r = 62.5 m

Therefore,

τ = (8 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(62.5 m)

<u>τ = 4900 N.m</u>

<u></u>

Hence, the correct answer will be:

<u>e. The torque is the same for all cases.</u>

We decided to make an iced latte by adding ice to a 200 mL hot latte at 45 °C. The ice starts out at 0 C. How much ice do we nee
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

m = 77.75 g

Explanation:

Here we know that at equilibrium the temperature of the system will be 10 degree C

so heat given by hot latte = heat absorbed by the ice

now we have

heat given by latte = m s\Delta T

Q_1 = (200)(4.186)(45 - 10)

Q_1 = 29302 J

now heat absorbed by ice is given as

Q_2 = mL + ms\Delta T

Q_2 = m(335 + 4.186(10 - 0))

Q_2 = m(376.86)

now by heat balance we have

Q_1 = Q_2

29302 = m(376.86)

m = 77.75 g

TRUE OR FALSE? earth revolves around the sun tilted on its axis
Alex777 [14]

The axis of the Earth's rotation is tilted relative to the plain of the Earth's revolution around the Sun.

The question is worded very poorly, but you'd have to say it's TRUE.

Which of the following is an example of work being done on an object?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

d. All of these

Explanation:

work is said to be done when a force is applied to an object through a certain distance. the SI unit of workdone is joules or newton per meter

mathematically

workdone = force x distance.

from the answers,  work is being done because there is force applied in a certain distance.

  • from wagon is used to carry vegetables from a garden.
  • pulley is used to get water from a well.
  • hammer is used to remove a nail from a wall.
