Answer:

1) It expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) P = 20 W

3) h = 18 km

Explanation:

1) Power is the rate of transfer of energy.

⇒ Power = $\frac{Energy(or workdone)}{Time}$

i.e P = $\frac{E}{t}$

Thus a car's engine power is 44000W implies that the engine of the car can propel the car at this rate. This expresses the rate (top speed) at which it can move with time.

2) m = 400g = 0.4 kg

t = 20 s

h = 100m

g = 10 m/ $s^{2}$

P = $\frac{mgh}{t}$

= $\frac{0.4*10*100}{20}$

= $\frac{400}{20}$

P = 20 W

3) u = 600 m/s

g = 10 m/ $s^{2}$

From the third equation of free fall,

$V^{2}$ = $U^{2}$ - 2gh

V is the final velocity, U is the initial velocity, h is the height.

0 = $(600)^{2}$ - 2 x 10 x h

0 = 360000 - 20h

20h = 360000

h = $\frac{360000}{20}$

= 18000

h = 18 km

The maximum height of the bullet would be 18 km.

What causes the apparent motions of stars across the sky each night

densk [106]

Answer:

Explanation:

for the motion every night, it is because the Earth spins on its axis.

for the changes over a year, this is because the Earth rotates around the sun.

for the changes over hundreds, thousands or millions of years, this is because the whole solar system (including the Earth, of course) rotates with all the other stars in our galaxy around the center of the galaxy. and each star system has its own orbit (similar to the planets in our solar system).

it is very rare to see objects outside of our galaxy without a telescope, but they change too over a long period of time, because our galaxy not only rotates by also moves through the universe, and these other objects move on their own too.

How do you calculate the net force when there are multiple forces in different directions?

Artyom0805 [142]

To find $F_{net}$ we need to use vector addition and use the x and y components. First we subtract vector 2 from vector 5 which results in a vector with a length of 3 pointing directly east, then we use the distance formula to find the length of the net force $F_{net} = \sqrt{(3)^2+(4)^2} \\$ which gives $F_{net} = 5$ . We now have a magnitude but we also need a direction, since vector 4 and vector 5 are perpendicular. Using $\theta = \tan^{-1} (\frac{4}{3})$ where tan^-1(y/x) we get an angle of 53 degrees. The resultant force vector is 5 distance with an angle of 53 degrees north east.
