Answer:

0.25 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum

Mu+ mu = Mv' + m v

M= mass of the astronaut = 80 kg

m= mass of the oxygen tank= 10 Kg

v= speedof the tank 2 m/s

u= initial velocity of the system= 0

If we substitute the values, we have

( 80× 0 )+(10×0)= [(80 x v )+ (10 x 2)]

0= 80v + 20

-20=80v

v= -0.25 m/s ( we have a negative value because the astronaut and the motion of the cylinder are in opposite direction)

Hence the velocity the astronaut start to move off into space is 0.25 m/s

Answer:

31.55 m/s

Explanation:

Let the initial velocity of the arrow is u metre per second.

Angle of projection, θ = 40 degree

range = 100 m

Use the formula for the range.

R = \frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}

100 = u^2 Sin(2 x 40) / 9.8

100 x 9.8 = u^2 Sin 80

u^2 = 995.11

u = 31.55 m/s

.Ryan boiled a liter of water and then stirred sugar into it, adding more sugar until no more would dissolve in the water, creat
kaheart [24]

Answer: The correct option is that all of the sugar will come out of solution, and pure water will float to the top

Explanation:

Solution in the field of Chemistry is usually made up of two or more substances which contains a solute that dissolves in a solvent.

A solution can either be:

-> Saturated

--> Unsaturated or

-> Supersaturated.

A saturated solution is a solution with solutes that dissolves until it is unable to dissolve anymore leaving the undissolved solute beneath.

When there is mixture of a solute and a solvent in a solution the reactions that occurs are called crystallization and dissolution. Crystallization causes solid solutes to remain undissolved while dissolution is simply the dissolving process of the solute.

When Ryan added more sugar after reaching the saturation point of the mixture, the process of crystallization set in which surpassed the process of dissolution of the sugar solute leading to precipitation of the solute of out the solution.

Verizon [17]

Answer:

Allison is probably looking at the asteroid.

Explanation:

  • Asteroids are the giant gas balls of inner solar system that are present in the space.
  • Asteroids orbits around the sun in very irregular ans strange path unlike the other planets.
  • This is also the reason why it's called as the minor planets.
  • It could have been comet but if it had been a comets he must have seen the tail but asteroids do not have any tail like structure.
