Answer:

I believe the answer is A, it is to the west as the right ascension is only east and west

Explanation:

When i took the quiz, I put east and had gotten it incorrect.

What are potential impacts of pollution on a watershed? Check all that apply.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

contaminated drinking water

deaths of sea creatures that are used as a food source

limits to potential economic activities such as a fishing

Explanation:

A watershed is a large area that comprises of drainage area of all the surrounding water bodies meeting at a common affluence point before draining into sea or ocean or any other large water body. Pollution in this area can pollute the small water streams flowing through it, thereby polluting the larger water body into which it drains.

Thus, the water extracted for drinking from such area will be contaminated. Pollution in larger water body can cause death of water creature and hence pose a threat to fishing.

A 5kg object moving horizontally at 3m/s collides with a stationary 3kg object. After the collision, the 5kg object is deflected

gavmur [86]

Answer:

The velocity of each ball after the collision are 2.19 m/s and 2.58 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of object = 5 kg

Speed = 3 m/s

Mass of stationary object = 3 kg

Moving object deflected = 30°

Stationary object deflected = 31°

We need to calculate the velocity of each ball after collision

Using conservation of momentum

Along x-axis

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}\cos\theta+m_{2}v_{2}\cos\theta$

Put the value into the fomrula

$5\times3+0=5\times v_{1}\cos30+3\times v_{2}\cos45$

$15=5v_{1}\times\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}+3v_{2}\times\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

$15=\dfrac{5\sqrt{3}}{2}v_{1}+\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}v_{2}$ ....(I)

Along y -axis

$m_{1}u_{1}+m_{2}u_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}\sin\theta+m_{2}v_{2}\sin\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$0+0=5\times v_{1}\sin30-3\times v_{2}\sin45$

$\dfrac{5}{2}v_{1}-\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}v_{2}=0$ ...(II)

From equation (I) and (II)

$v_{1}=\dfrac{15\times2}{5\sqrt{3}+5}$

$v_{1}=2.19\ m/s$

Put the value of v₁ in equation (I)

$\dfrac{5}{2}\times2.19-\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}v_{2}=0$

$v_{2}=\dfrac{5.475\times\sqrt{2}}{3}$

$v_{2}=2.58\ m/s$

Hence, The velocity of each ball after the collision are 2.19 m/s and 2.58 m/s.

What are 7 examples of potential energy

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Hewo Otaku Kun Here! (UwU)

Explanation:

1. A rock sitting at the edge of a cliff has potential energy. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy.

2. Tree branches high up in a tree have potential energy because they can fall to the ground.

3. A stick of dynamite has chemical potential energy that would be released when the activation energy from the fuse comes into contact with the chemicals.

4. The food we eat has chemical potential energy because as our body digests it, it provides us with energy for basic metabolism.

5. A stretched spring in a pinball machine has elastic potential energy and can move the steel ball when released.

6. When a crane swings a wrecking ball up to a certain height, it gains more potential energy and has the ability to crash through buildings.

7. A set of double "A" batteries in a remote control car possess chemical potential energy which can supply electricity to run the car.

happy to help!
