Twoâ cars, 405 kilometersâ apart, begin driving toward each other on aâ long, straight highway. one car travels 70 kilometers pe

r hour and the other 65 kilometers per hour. at the sameâ time, aâ canary, starting on oneâ car, flies back and forth between the two cars as they approach each other. if the canary flies 100 kilometers per hour and spends no time to turn around at eachâ car, how far has it flown when the carsâ collide?

The space between the cars closes at (70+65)=135 km/hr. They collide in (405/135)=3 hours after they start moving. In 3 hours, the canary covers (100km/hr x 3)= 300 km.

(PLEASE HELP! 30 POINTS!) What are two similarities and two differences between the Strong Nuclear Force and Weak Nuclear Force?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Difference: The weak force tears an atomic nucleus apart.The strong force is what keeps the protons and neutrons in a nucleus held together, while the weak force is what makes radioactive particles decay.Or even simpler: The strong force keeps stuff together while the weak force helps stuff split up.

Similarities: Weak force allows quarks to turn into other quarks, which can turn a neutron into a proton and break up the nucleus. ... One big difference is that the particles/fields that are responsible for carrying the strong force are massless, whereas for the weak force they are quite massive (nearly 100 times the proton mass).

A man started at his house and went to the post office, then to the pet store, and finally home again. What is the average veloc
docker41 [41]

Answer:

0

Explanation:

Defining velocity :

Velocity is a vector which is the ratio of a person's total displacement with time.

Displacement, in simple terms refers to the distance between an individual's initial position to his final position.

Man's initial position = House

After all his navigation and points covered irrespective of the distance ;

Final position = House

Hence, we can conclude that the man's Displacement is ;

Final position - Initial position = 0

Hence,

Velocity = Displacement / time taken

Velocity = 0 / 3

Velocity = 0

What is the approximate size of the smallest object on the Earth that astronauts can resolve by eye when they are orbiting 250 k
sesenic [268]

Answer:

the approximate size of the smallest object on the Earth that astronauts can resolve by eye when they are orbiting 250 km above the Earth is y = 31.495 m

Explanation:

Using Rayleigh criterion for the limiting angle of resolution of an eye

\theta = \frac{1.22\lambda }{D } \\ \\  \theta = \frac{1.22*506 *10^{-9} }{4.90*10^{-3}m}

\theta = 1.2598*10^{-4} rad

\theta = 125.98*10^{-6} \ rad

Thus; the separation  between the two sources is expressed as:

\theta = \frac{y}{L} \\ \\ y = L \theta \\ \\ y = (250*10^3 )(125.98*10^{-6} \ rad) \\ \\ y = 31.495 \ m

Thus; the approximate size of the smallest object on the Earth that astronauts can resolve by eye when they are orbiting 250 km above the Earth is y = 31.495 m
