The galaxies aren't distributed randomly throughout the universe but they are grouped in gravitationally bound clusters.
Answer:
Explanation:
The two cars are under an uniform linear motion. So, the distance traveled by them is given by:
is the same for both cars when the second one catches up with the first. If we take as reference point the initial position of the second car, we have:
We have 
. Thus, solving for t:
Answer:
z
Explanation:
x repersents a new moon and the others repersent quarter moons
(x is a new moon because new moons are often the phase when the moon is close to earths sun)
Answer:
<em>The PE of the mass increased by 6,972.95 J</em>
Explanation:
<u>Gravitational Potential Energy</u>
It's the energy stored in an object because of its vertical position or height in a gravitational field.
It can be calculated with the equation:
U=m.g.h
Where m is the mass of the object, h is the height with respect to a fixed reference, and g is the acceleration of gravity or 9.8 m/s^2.
We are given the mass of m=16 slug raised by a height h=10 ft. Both units will be converted to SI standard:
1 slug = 14.59 Kg, thus
16 slug = 16*14.59 Kg=233.44 Kg
1 ft = 0.3048 m, thus:
10 ft = 10*0.3048 m = 3.048 m
Thus, the PE of the mass increased by:
U = 233.44 * 9.8 * 3.048 = 6,972.95 J
the PE of the mass increased by 6,972.95 J
<span>This reduction happens because potential energy transforms to "thermal energy" and "sound energy"
Hope this helps!</span>
