Answer:
The planet will move from east to west for a couple of months in the night sky.
Explanation:
Retrograde motion is an optical effect due to the fact that Earth rotates more quickly than the planet that apparently has a retrograde motion in the sky.
For example, Saturn has a slower speed in its orbit around the Sun. That means that the Earth will pass it, and that will give the effect that the planet is moving backward. That same scenario can be seen between two cars on a highway, the faster car will see the slower car when it passes as it is moving for a short fragment of time in backward.
Remember that the planets in the night sky move from west to east, in the case of a planet with retrograde motion, it will move from east to west for a couple of months.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Given that an elevator moving down passes its neighbor, an elevator moving up. Their speed relative to one another is 8 m/s. What is the velocity of each elevator relative to someone standing on the first floor? Assume that the elevators are traveling at the same speed, and that the upward direction is
positive.
Solution
Given that upward direction is positive, then, the downward direction will be negative.
To get a relative velocity of 8m/s
4 - ( - 4 ) = 8
Therefore, the correct answer will be
One elevator is moving at 4 m/s; the other elevator is moving at -4 m/s
Which is option B
Because the negative multiply by negative sign will give positive sign.
Given
4 + 4 = 8.
Answer and Explanation
Arranging the measured values in increasing order;
4.3s, 4.6s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 5.8s
The two outliers are obviously 4.3s and 5.8s; An outlier is a value in a statistical sample which does not fit a pattern that describes most other data point. Outliers make the average value complicated. So, it is usually better for data to be precise with data points spreading out around a small area.
So, the mean is the average of the four remaining data points after removing the outliers.
Mean = (4.6 + 4.6 + 4.8 + 5.1)/4
Mean = 4.775s
So, the value recorded should be 4.775s, 4.78s or 4.8s depending on the number of decimal places allowed.
QED!
I’m not sure I think if you google it it should pop up or go on quizlet sorry
