3 0

Answer:

(θ) = 60°

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of canoe Vc = 2 m/s

Speed of River Vr = 1 m/s

Computation:

Vc (Cosθ) = Vr

2 (Cosθ) = 1

(Cosθ) =  1 / 2

(Cosθ) = (Cos60)

(θ) = 60°

As the mass of object increased it is density increased
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The density of an object is given by its mass divided by its volume. It can be given as follows :

d=\dfrac{m}{V}

It can be seen that the density of an object is directly proportional to its mass. It means if the mass of an object increase, its density will also increase. Hence, the given statement is true.

Now consider the statements in Part A that are inferred from models. A solar model is used to calculate interior conditions base
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

d. We can calculate it by applying Newton's version of Kepler's third law

Explanation:

The measurements of a Star like the Sun have several problems, the first one is distance, but the most important is the temperature since as we get closer all the instruments will melt. This is why all measurements must be indirect because of the effects that these variables create on nearby bodies.

Kepler's laws are deduced from Newton's law of universal gravitation, in these laws the mass of the Sun affects the orbit of the planets since it creates a force of attraction, if measured the orbit and the time it takes to travel it we can know the centripetal acceleration and with it knows the force, from where we clear the mass of the son.

Let's review the statements of the exercise

.a) False. We don't have good enough models for this calculation

.b) False. The size of the sun is very difficult to measure because it is a mass of gas, in addition the density changes strongly with depth

.c) False. The amount of light that comes out of the sun is not all the light produced and is due to quantum effects where the mass of the sun is not taken into account

.d) True. This method has been used to calculate the mass of the sun and the other planets since the variable distance and time are easily measured from Earth

Initially a car accelerates at 2 m/s2 for x seconds. The car then travels at a velocity of -6 m/s for x seconds. If the car disp
Luda [366]

Answer:

The time travel is

t=8 s

Explanation:

a= 2 \frac{m}{s^{2} } \\v=-6 \frac{m}{s} \\x=16m

x_{f}=x_{o}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2} *a*t^{2}

x_{f}=0-6*t+\frac{1}{2} *2*t^{2}

t^{2}-6*t-16=0\\ using :\\\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*c*a } }{2} \\\frac{-(-6)+/-\sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4*(-16)*(1) } }{2}=\frac{3}{2} +/- \frac{10}{2} \\t_{1} = 2s \\t_{2} = 8s

Check

t_{2}=8s

x_{f}=x_{o}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2} *a*t^{2}

x_{f}=0-6*+\frac{1}{2} *2*8^{2}

x_{f}=-48+64\\x_{f}=16
