Answer:

The planets spun in epicycles.

Explanation:

The planets were not simply attached to a mystical sphere (“deferent”) but they were actually attached to a mini-sphere (“epicycle”) which rotated on the larger one.

What is the force of a ball if it has a mass of 10 kg and accelerates at an acceleration of 20 m/s^2? *
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

200N

Explanation:

mass(m) = 10 kg

acceleration(a) = 20 m/s^2

Force = mass * acceleration

          = 10*20

          = 200 N

Force = 200N

Suppose a rock is dropped off a cliff with an initial speed of 0m/s. What is the rocks speed after 5 secounds, in m/s, if it enc
Tasya [4]

Answer:

The rock's speed after 5 seconds is 98 m/s.

Explanation:

A rock is dropped off a cliff.

It had an initial velocity of 0 m/s. And now it is moving downwards under the influence of gravitational force with the gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s².

Speed after 5 seconds = V

We know that acceleration = average speed/time

In our case,

g = ((0+V)/2)/5

9.8*5 = V/2

=> V = 2*9.8*5

V = 98 m/s

Americium-241 is used in smoke detectors. It undergoes alpha decay with a half life of 432 years. The alpha particles ionize som
babymother [125]

Answer:

860.6 years.

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Initial detector activity = 370000 alpha decays per second

Final detector activity = 93000 alpha decays per second

Formula for time to change in activity is given by the following relation;

t_{93000} = \dfrac{-ln\dfrac{A}{A_0} }{\lambda} =  \dfrac{-ln\dfrac{93000}{370000} }{5.08 \times 10^{-11}} = 2.72 \times 10^{10} \, seconds

t₉₃₀₀₀ = 2.72 × 10¹⁰ seconds = 860.6 years.
