Answer:

2 kg

Explanation:

Acceleration = 5 m/s^2

Force = 10 N

Force = mass * acceleration

mass = force / acceleration

mass = 10 / 5

mass = 2 kg

A tortoise can run with a speed of 0.14 m/s, and a hare can run 20 times as fast. In a race, they both start at the same time, b

Reptile [31]

speed of tortoise is given as v1 = 0.14 m/s

speed of hare is given as v2 = 20*0.14 = 2.8 m/s

now let say the total length of the path is "d"

so the total time taken by the tortoise to cover this

$t = \frac{d}{0.14}$

now given that hare took rest for 1 min

so total time of run for hare is (t - 60)s

so the distance that hare covered is given by

$d - 0.30 = 2.8 * (t - 60)$

now by above two equations

$d - 0.30 = 2.8 * \frac{d}{0.14} - 168$

$168 - 0.30 = (20 - 1)d$

$d = 8.82 m$

and the time t is given by

$t = \frac{8.82}{0.14}$

$t = 63 s$

so part a)

t = 63 s

part b)

d = 8.82 m

The speed of sound waves

B. Is faster in solids than liquids would be the correct answer because the molecules in solids are much closer and can pass along energy faster and more effectively.

Why are there shadows?

Deffense [45]

Shadows are formed when an opaque object or an object that doesn't allow light to pass through is in the way or infront of etc. a source of light.

Why are the freezing points of water and the melting point the same

Sladkaya [172]

Because melting point and freezing point describe thesame transition of matter, in this case from liquid to solid (freezing) or equivalently, from solid to liquid (melting).

An astronaut is standing on the surface of a planetary satellite that has a radius of 1.74 × 10^6 m and a mass of 7.35 × 10^22 k

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

2.87 km/s

Explanation:

radius of planet, R = 1.74 x 10^6 m

Mass of planet, M = 7.35 x 10^22 kg

height, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m

G = 6.67 x 106-11 Nm^2/kg^2

Use teh formula for acceleration due to gravity

$g=\frac{GM}{R^{2}}$

$g=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{1.74^{2}\times 10^{12}}$

g = 1.62 m/s^2

initial velocity, u = ?, h = 2.55 x 10^6 m , final velocity, v = 0

Use third equation of motion

$v^{2}=u^{2}-2gh$

0 = v² - 2 x 1.62 x 2.55 x 10^6

v² = 8262000

v = 2874.37 m/s

v = 2.87 km/s

Thus, the initial speed should be 2.87 km/s.
