Answer:

NASA satellites help scientists study Earth and space. Satellites looking toward Earth provide information about clouds, oceans, land and ice. They also measure gases in the atmosphere, such as ozone and carbon dioxide, and the amount of energy that Earth absorbs and emits. And satellites monitor wildfires, volcanoes and their smoke.

Explanation:

Hope this helps! :) have a great day.

Two objects are dropped from a bridge, an interval of 1.00 s apart. What is their separation 1.00 s after the second object is r

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

<em>171.5m</em>

Explanation:

The velocity of sound in water = 343m/s

Time taken = 1.00secs

using the formula to calculate the distance

2x = vt

x is the distance

v is the speed of sound

t is the time

x = vt/2

x = 343(1)/2

x = 171.5m

<em>hence their separation 1.00 s after the second object is released is 171.5m</em>

A baseball bat hits a baseball with a force of 100 newtons. What is the force and its direction exerted by the ball on the bat?

Brut [27]

Answer:

The force exerted by the ball on the bat has a magnitude of 100 N and its direction is exactly opposite to that of the force exerted by the bat on the ball.

Explanation:

Recall that Newton's third law tells us that : "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Therefore if the bat acts on the ball with a force of 100 N, the ball acts on the bat with a similar magnitude of force (100 N) but direction opposite to the original force.

A student is running to catch the campus shuttle bus, which is stopped at the bus stop. The student is runnign at a constant spe

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Part a)

$t = 16.8 s$

$d = 100.8 m$

Part b)

$v_f = 2.86 m/s$

Explanation:

Part a)

Constant speed by which the student will run is given as

$v = 5 m/s$

now after some time if student is going to overtake the position of bus

so here the final positions will be same

so we have

$x_{bus} = x_{student}$

$0 + \frac{1}{2}at^2 + d = v_{student} t$

$\frac{1}{2}(0.170)t^2 + 60 = 5 t$

$0.085 t^2 - 5t + 60 = 0$

so it is

$t = 16.8 s$

So student will run the total distance

$d = vt$

$d = (6)(16.8)$

$d = 100.8 m$

Part b)

Speed of bus when student reach the bus is given as

$v_f = v_i + at$

$v_f = 0 + (0.170)(16.8)$

$v_f = 2.86 m/s$

Suppose you are in an elevator. As the elevator starts upward, its speed will increase. During this time when the elevator is mo

kkurt [141]

Answer:increased

Explanation:

It is given that elevator speed is increasing while moving upward i.e.its acceleration is increasing .

This causes the apparent to be increased if measured using weighing machine.

considering upward direction to be positive

N-mg=ma

N=m(g+a)

where N=Normal reaction=Apparent weight

a=acceleration of Elevator

thus you feel as if your weight is increased.

A 74 kg firefighter slides, from rest, 4.9 m down a vertical pole. (a) If the firefighter holds onto the pole lightly, so that t

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Her speed is 9.8 meter per second

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that acceleration (a) is related with force (F) by:

$\sum\overrightarrow{F}=m\overrightarrow{a}$ (1)

Here the only force acting on the firefighter is the weight F=mg so (1) is:

$mg=ma$

Solving for a:

$a=g$

Now with the acceleration we can use the Galileo's kinematic equation:

$Vf^{2}=Vo^{2}+2a\varDelta x$ (2)

With Vf the final velocity, Vo the initial velocity and Δx the displacement, because the firefighter stars from rest Vo=0 so (2) is:

$Vf^{2}=2a\varDelta x$

Solving for Vf

$Vf=\sqrt{2g\varDelta x}=\sqrt{2(9.81)(4.9)}$

$Vf=9.8\frac{m}{s}$
