Answer:

Newton's Second Law of Motion says that acceleration (gaining speed) happens when a force acts on a mass . Riding your bicycle is a good example of this law of motion at work. Your bicycle is the mass. Your leg muscles pushing pushing on the pedals of your bicycle is the force.

There are many theories as to why ice ages occur. The currently accepted theory is that ice ages are caused by _____.

Harman [31]

Earlier in the text this question is provided for, you should be able to find the passage, "The currently accepted theory attributes ice ages to small changes in Earth's orbit, known as Milankovitch cycles. These cycles describe how Earth's orbit gradually changes shape from more circular to more elliptical and back again. This happens roughly every 100,000 years. The orbital changes take Earth nearer and further from the Sun, which would affect the amount of energy reaching Earth."

Answer: Small changes in Earth's orbit

You wad up a piece of paper and throw it into the wastebasket. How far will

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Since the paper is wadded up tight, and if there's any

air resistance left we assume there isn't any, it might

just as well be a stone that's tossed. This is just a

stripped down projectile situation.

You said "an angle of 36 degrees", but you didn't say relative

to what. I'll assume that it's 36 degrees above horizontal, and

now I'll proceed to answer the question with the information that

I just gave myself.

-- The vertical component of the velocity is 1.4 sin(36)

= 0.823 m/s up.

-- The projectile rises for (0.823/9.8) second, runs out of gas,

and then falls for another (0.823/9.8) second to its original height.

So it's in the air for

2 (0.823/9.8) = 0.168 second

(not very long at all)

-- The horizontal component of the velocity is 1.4 cos(36)

= 1.133 m/s

and it doesn't change.

-- During the 0.168 second that it's in the air,

the wad travels horizontally

(0.168 s) x (1.133 m/s)

= 0.19 meter

(19 cm, ~ 7.5 inches)

If you find my mistake on this one, please please tell me.

As of now, it looks like with that velocity at that angle, your

paper wad only makes it 7.5 inches from your hand into the can.

-- We know that the y-component of acceleration is the derivative of the
y-component of velocity.

-- We know that the y-component of velocity is the derivative of the
y-component of position.

-- We're given the y-component of position as a function of time.

So, finding the velocity and acceleration is simply a matter of differentiating
the position function ... twice.

Now, the position function may look big and ugly in the picture. But with the
exception of 't' , everything else in the formula is constants, so we don't even
need any fancy processes of differentiation. The toughest part of this is going
to be trying to write it out, given the text-formatting capabilities of the wonderful
envelope-pushing website we're working on here.

From the picture . . . . . y (t) = (1/2) (a₀ - g) t² - (a₀ / 30t₀⁴ ) t⁶

First derivative . . . y' (t) = (a₀ - g) t - 6 (a₀ / 30t₀⁴ ) t⁵ = (a₀ - g) t - (a₀ / 5t₀⁴ ) t⁵

There's your velocity . . . /\ .

Second derivative . . . y'' (t) = (a₀ - g) - 5 (a₀ / 5t₀⁴ ) t⁴ = (a₀ - g) - (a₀ /t₀⁴ ) t⁴

and there's your acceleration . . . /\ .
That's the one you're supposed to graph.

a₀ is the acceleration due to the model rocket engine thrust
combined with the mass of the model rocket
'g' is the acceleration of gravity ... 9.8 m/s² or 32.2 ft/sec²
t₀ is how long the model rocket engine burns

Pick, or look up, some reasonable figures for a₀ and t₀
and you're in business.

The big name in model rocketry is Estes. Their website will give you
all the real numbers for thrust and burn-time of their engines, if you
want to follow it that far.

Do you think that the universe has a starting point and ending point? explain.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Explanation:

I don't think the universe has a starting and ending point because the universe is vast and has not been fully discovered. I think that the universe is endless because all of the stars, planets, and galaxy's have yet to be found and the end or start of the universe is also yet to be discovered so I think that the universe could go on forever.
