Answer: A device records the time it takes sound waves to travel from the surface to the ocean floor and back again. Sound waves travel through water at a known speed. Once scientists know the travel time of the wave, they can calculate the distance to the ocean floor.

Answer:

Sonar can be used to measure how deep the ocean is. A device records the time it takes sound waves to travel from the surface to the ocean floor and back again. Sound waves travel through water at a known speed. Once scientists know the travel time of the wave, they can calculate the distance to the ocean floor.

Un proyectil es lanzado horizontalmente desde una altura de 12 metro con una velocidad de 80 m/sg. a.Calcular el tiempo de vuelo
Naily [24]

Answer:

t= 1,56 s ,   x= 124,8 m , v = (80 i^ - 15,288 j ) m/s

Explanation:

Este es un ejercicio de lanzamiento proyectiles, comencemos por encontrar el tiempo que tarda en llegar al piso

        y = y₀ + v_{oy} t – ½ g t²

en este caso la altura inicial es y₀= 12 m y llega a y=0 , como es lanzado horizontalmente la velocidad vertical es cero (v_{oy}=0)

       0 = y₀ – ½ g t²

       t= √ (2 y₀/g)

calculemos

       t= √ ( 2 12 / 9,8)

       t= 1,56 s

El alcance del proyectil es la distancia horizontal recorrida  

        x = v₀ₓ t

        x = 80 1,56

        x= 124,8 m

La velocidad de impacto cuando toca el suelo

        vx = v₀ₓ = 80 ms

        v_{y} = v_{oy} – gt

        v_{y} = - 9,8 1,56

        v_{y} = - 15,288 m/s

la velocidad es

       v = (80 i^ - 15,288 j ) m/s

Traducttion  

This is a projectile launching exercise, let's start by finding the time it takes to reach the ground

        y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

in this case the initial height is i = 12 m and it reaches y = 0, as it is thrown horizontally the vertical speed is zero (v_{oy} = 0)

       0 =y₀I - ½ g t²

       t = √ (2y₀ / g)

let's calculate

       t = √ (2 12 / 9.8)

       t = 1.56 s

Projectile range is the horizontal distance traveled

        x = v₀ₓ t

        x = 80 1.56

        x = 124.8 m

Impact speed when it hits the ground

        vₓ = v₀ₓ = 80 ms

        v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

        v_{y} = - 9.8 1.56

        v_{y} = - 15,288 m / s

the speed is

       v = (80 i ^ - 15,288 j) m / s

28. Which of the following correctly shows the order of highest amount of friction to the lowest amount of
Bad White [126]

Answer:

\mathrm{d.\:Static,\: Sliding,\:Rolling}

Explanation:

Static friction occurs when an object initially starts at rest. When the surfaces of the materials touch, the microscopic unevenness interlock greatest with each other, causing the most friction out of the three.

During sliding friction, an object is already moving or in motion. The microscopic surfaces still interlock, but because the object is in motion, it has a momentum. Therefore, the magnitude of sliding friction is less than that of static friction.

Rolling friction occurs when an object rolls across some surface. Rather than surfaces interlocking, rolling friction is caused by the constant distortion of surfaces. As it rolls, the surfaces of the object are constantly wrapping and changing. This distortion causes the rolling friction. However, it is much less in magnitude when compared to static or sliding friction.

What causes clouds of dust and gas to form a protostar
just olya [345]
<h2>Answer: Gravitational attraction </h2>

Gravity force causes the clouds of dust and gas to form a protostar. As this <u>attraction force</u> is responsible for gathering and compressing the existing elements in the cloud of gas and dust, heating them during this process.

Then, when the amount of material accumulated by gravitational contraction is large enough, and the temperature and pressure reached high enough, the <u>nuclear fusion</u> process will begin.

To understand it better: The hydrogen nuclei will begin to fuse, generating helium nuclei in the process and releasing huge amounts of energy.

It should be noted that the protostars radiate half of the energy contributed by the gravitational collapse and the other half is invested in heating its core.
