The Solar System moves through the galaxy with about a 60° angle between the galactic plane and the planetary orbital plane. The Sun appears to move up-and-down and in-and-out with respect to the rest of the galaxy as it revolves around the Milky Way and
This speed is not unusual for the stars around us and is our “milling around” speed in our suburban part of the Galaxy. In addition to the individual motions of the stars within it, the entire Galaxy is in spinning motion like an enormous pinwheel.

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 m/s^2

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles =  40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles  =  64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = \frac{1}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{30}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{1}{2}hours

Now

Average velocity = \frac{Speed}{time}

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = \frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}

Average velocity = 64.3738 \times 2

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting  velocity to m/s

128.74  \times \frac{5}{18}

=>35.75 m/s----------------------------------------------------------(1)

kinetic energy  K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Substituting the values,

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(35.75)^2

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(1278.06)

K= \frac{1500 \times (1278.06)}{2}

K= \frac{1917093.75}{2}

K=958546.875 Joule---------------------------------------------(2)

(c)When the driver applies the brake, it takes 15 seconds to stop. How far does the car travel (in meters) while stopping

Lets use Distance formula,

S= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Substituting the known values,

s= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

s= (37.75)(15)+\frac{1}{2}a(15)^2

s=566.25+\frac{1}{2}a(225)

s=566.25+\frac{(225a)}{2}-------------------------------------(3)

(D) What is the average acceleration of the car (in m/s2) during braking?

Using the formula

v=u +at

re arranging the formula we get,

a = \frac{v - u}{t}

Substituting the values

a = \frac{0 - 35.75}{15}

a = \frac{- 35.75}{15}

a= - 2.38 m/s^2----------------------------------------(4)

Now substituting 4 in 3 we get

s=566.25+\frac{(225( - 2.38)}{2}

s=566.25+\frac{-535.5}{2}

s=536.25-267.75

s=268.8m--------------------------------------------------------------(5)

What is the relationship between the atoms of elements,its isotopes and its ions
klasskru [66]
An element refers to a collection of atoms having the same number of protons and electrons (an atomic number). In each element there is a different atomic number due to a different amount of protons in the nucleus.

An isotope is a variation of an element that contains a different number of neutrons, therefore adding weight to the atom.

An ion is a charged atom, and its charge shows how many electrons it needs to gain or lose in order to become stable.

A 20.0-kg rock is dropped and hits the ground at a speed of 90.0 m/s. Calculate the rock’s gravitational potential energy before
KonstantinChe [14]
Answer:

<span>GPE=81000J or 81kJ</span>

Explanation

Potential Energy = mgh = 20 x 9.8 x ? 

<span>To find H use one of the equation of motion </span>

<span>= [(90)^2 - 0 ] / 2(9.8) </span>

<span>Potential Energy = mgh = 20 x 9.8 x 8100 /2(9.8) = 81000 J</span>

A watt is a measure of power (the rate of energy change) equal to 1 j&gt;s. (a) calculate the number of joules in a kilowatt- ho
GalinKa [24]
Before solving this, you must know the definition of these units of measurement. Watt is a measurement of power which is the amount of energy per unit time in seconds. Energy, on the other hand, is expressed through the SI unit Joules. Thus, power is the amount of energy in Joules per second.

From here, you can use the dimensional analysis technique. Also, you should know that 1 kilowatt is equal to 1000 watts, and 24 hours is equal to 86,400 seconds. Then,

100 = Energy/86,400
Energy = 8,640,000 Joules
