The center of mass is given with this formula:
Velocity is:
So, for the velocity of the center of mass we have:
In our case it is:
Answer:
Explanation:
Intensity of light is inversely proportional to distance from source
I ∝ 1 /r² where I is intensity and r is distance from source . If I₁ and I₂ be intensity at distance r₁ and r₂ .
I₁ /I₂ = r₂² /r₁²
If r₂ = 4r₁ ( given )
I₁ / I₂ = (4r₁ )² / r₁²
= 16 r₁² / r₁²
I₁ / I₂ = 16
I₂ = I₁ / 16
So intensity will become 16 times less bright .
"16 times " is the answer .
Kinetic energy is never negative, but potential energy can be.
Potential energy depends on height above some reference level,
and you can pick any level you want as the reference. So, if the
object is below the reference level you pick, then its potential
energy relative to your reference level is negative.
What that means is: You have to lift it / do work on it / give it more
energy than it has now ... in order to move it to the reference level.
(That's exactly the situation with electrons bound to an atom. Their
energy is considered negative, because we have to do work and
give them more energy to rip them away from the atom.)
_____________________________________
Regarding the other choices:
-- Kinetic energy is scalar ... Yes. So is potential energy.
-- Kinetic energy increases with height ...
No. It doesn't, but potential energy does.
-- Kinetic energy depends on position ...
No. It doesn't, but potential energy does.
The definition for the prime meridian is: The prime meridian with 0 degrees longitude runs through Greenwich. Polaris is the north star <span>at 50 degrees above the horizon, which means 50 degrees latitude.
</span>If you observe Polaris at 50 degrees of altitude, you are at latitude 50 North. You that's why you know that your boat's location is <span>50º north latitude and 0º longitude.</span>
