Answer:

Photons have no mass, they do have energy, and the gravity of a black hole (or any other gravitating body) will attract them.

Explanation:

is that what you wanted?

A cheetah can run at a maximum speed 97.8 km/h and a gazelle can run at a maximum speed of 78.2 km/h. If both animals are runnin
emmainna [20.7K]

(1)

Cheetah speed: v_c = 97.8 km/h=27.2 m/s

Its position at time t is given by

S_c (t)= v_c t (1)

Gazelle speed: v_g = 78.2 km/h=21.7 m/s

the gazelle starts S0=96.8 m ahead, therefore its position at time t is given by

S_g(t)=S_0 +v_g t (2)

The cheetah reaches the gazelle when S_c=S_g. Therefore, equalizing (1) and (2) and solving for t, we find the time the cheetah needs to catch the gazelle:

v_c t=S_0 + v_g t

(v_c -v_g t)=S_0

t=\frac{S_0}{v_c-v_t}=\frac{96.8 m}{27.2 m/s-21.7 m/s}=17.6 s


(2) To solve the problem, we have to calculate the distance that the two animals can cover in t=7.5 s.

Cheetah: S_c = v_c t =(27.2 m/s)(7.5 s)=204 m

Gazelle: S_g = v_g t =(21.7 m/s)(7.5 s)=162.8 m

So, the gazelle should be ahead of the cheetah of at least

d=S_c -S_g =204 m-162.8 m=41.2 m

How does gravity affect the motions of Earth and the Moon?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The Sun's gravitational pull keeps our planet orbiting the Sun. The motion of the Moon is affected by the gravity of the Sun and Earth. Moon's gravity pulls on the Earth and makes the tides rise and fall.

The answer would be “B” because humans would need water, protection from radiation so we don’t melt or burn to death lol, and a gaseous atmosphere because we would need oxygen.
