Earth's gravity and the satellite's velocity keeps it so that it stays in orbit. (there is a more complicated side, too...)

Does wind have atoms and molecules in it?
Likurg_2 [28]
<span>
Of course.  Wind is air in motion, and the gases in air are composed of
all the usual familiar stuff ... atoms, molecules, mass, etc.  That's how
the wind moves things ... it has momentum and kinetic energy, which
get transferred to the things that move in the wind.</span>

An observer on Earth sees rocket 1 leave Earth and travel toward Planet X at 0.3c. The observer on Earth also sees that Planet X
Verizon [17]

Answer:

0.625 c

Explanation:

Relative speed of a body may be defined as the speed of one body with respect to some other or the speed of one body in comparison to the speed of second body.

In the context,

The relative speed of body 2 with respect to body 1 can be expressed as :

$u'=\frac{u-v}{1-\frac{uv}{c^2}}$

Speed of rocket 1 with respect to rocket 2 :

$u' = \frac{0.4 c- (-0.3 c)}{1-\frac{(0.4 c)(-0.3 c)}{c^2}}$

$u' = \frac{0.7 c}{1.12}$

u'=0.625 c

Therefore, the speed of rocket 1 according to an observer on rocket 2 is 0.625 c

A baseball player leads off the game and hits a long home run. The ball leaves the bat at an angle of 70.0 from the horizontal w
professor190 [17]

Answer: 211.059 m

Explanation:

We have the following data:

\theta=70\° The angle at which the ball leaves the bat

V_{o}=55 m/s The initial velocity of the ball

g=-9.8 m/s^{2} The acceleration due gravity

We need to find how far (horizontally) the ball travels in the air: x

Firstly we need to know this velocity has two components:

<u>Horizontally:</u>

V_{ox}=V_{o}cos \theta (1)

V_{ox}=55 m/s cos(70\°)=18.811 m/s (2)

<u>Vertically:</u>

V_{oy}=V_{o}sin \theta (3)

V_{oy}=55 m/s sin(70\°)=51.683 m/s (4)

On the other hand, when we talk about parabolic movement (as in this situation) the ball reaches its maximum height just in the middle of this parabola, when V=0 and the time t is half the time it takes the complete parabolic path.

So, if we use the following equation, we will find t:

V=V_{o}+gt=0 (5)

Isolating t:

t=\frac{-V_{o}}{g} (6)

t=\frac{-55 m/s}{-9.8 m/s^{2}} (7)

t=5.61 s (8)

Now that we have the time it takes to the ball to travel half of is path, we can find the total time T it takes the complete parabolic path, which is twice t:

T=2t=2(5.61 s)=11.22 s (9)

With this result in mind, we can finally calculate how far the ball travels in the air:

x=V_{ox}T (10)

Substituting (2) and (9) in (10):

x=(18.811 m/s)(11.22 s) (11)

Finally:

x=211.059 m

?/1 Jorge traveled 5 miles north to school. He then traveled 3 miles west to the store. Then he left the store and traveled 5 mi
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

He's 3 miles west of school.

Explanation:

He went 5 miles up and 5 miles down which means that he really didn't go up or down.  In between that, he went 3 miles west so if the 5 milers don't count, this puts him at 3 miles west of school.
