Answer: The bottom of the ladder is moving at 3.464ft/sec
Explanation:
The question defines a right angle triangle. Therefore using pythagorean
h^2 + l^2 = 10^2 = 100 ...eq1
dh/dt = -2ft/sec
dl/ dt = ?
Taking derivatives of time in eq 1 on both sides
2hdh/dt + 2ldl/dt = 0 ....eq2
Putting l = 5ft in eq2
h^ + 5^2 = 100
h^2 = 25 = 100
h Sqrt(75)
h = 8.66 ft
Put h = 8.66ft in eq2
2 × 8.66 × (-2) + 2 ×5 dl/dt
dl/dt = 17.32 / 5
dl/dt = 3.464ft/sec
Answer:
Stars emit colors of many different wavelengths, but the wavelength of light where a star's emission is concentrated is related to the star's temperature - the hotter the star, the more blue it is; the cooler the star, the more red it is
Answer:
d. decreases
Explanation:
The law of conservation of momentum tells us that the sum of momenta before the collision is equal to the sum of momenta after the collision. The bag has no momentum as it falls onto the boat because its velocity is zero in the horizontal direction. But after it hits the boat, it's momentum increases while the momentum of the system remains the same. That means a component of the system must decrease somewhere else. And that component is the velocity, not the mass, of the boat.
Answer: One quarter of the force
Explanation:
According to Newton's law of Gravitation, the force 
exerted between two bodies of masses 
and 
and separated by a distance 
is equal to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance:
(1)
Where 
is the gravitational constant
This means that the gravity force decreases when the distance between these two bodies increases.
In this context, if the distance between the capsule and the Earth increases twice, the new distance will be 
.
Substituting this distance in (1):
(2)
<u>Finally:</u>
>>>This means the force toward Earth becomes one quarter "weaker"
