Answer:

<em>A hypothesis</em> is a limited explanation of a phenomenon; a scientific theory is an in-depth explanation of the observed phenomenon.

<em> A law</em> is a statement about an observed phenomenon or a unifying concept, according to Kennesaw State University. ... However, Newton's law doesn't explain what gravity is, or how it works.

Answer:

Explanation:

a = F/m = 7500/2000 = 3.75 m/s²

v² = u² + 2as

s = (v² - u²) / 2a

s = (0² - 45²) / (2(-3.75))

s = 270 m

Explanation:

This problem must be worked on using conservation of angular momentum. We define the system as formed by the fan and the paper, as the system is isolated, the moment is conserved

initial instant. Before the crash

L₀ = r m v₀ + I₀ w₀

the angular speed of the fan is zero w₀ = 0

final instant. After the crash

L_f = I₀ w + m r v

L₀ = L_f

m r v₀ = I₀ w + m r v

angular and linear velocity are related

v = r w

w = v / r

m r v₀ = I₀ v / r + m r v

m r v₀ = (I₀ / r + mr) v

v = $\frac{m}{\frac{I_o}{r} +mr} \ r v_o$

let's calculate

v = $\frac{0.020}{\frac{1.4}{0.6 } + 0.020 \ 0.6 } \ 0.6 \ 4$

v = $\frac{0.020}{2.345} \ 2.4$

v = 0.02 m / s

To calculate the time of a complete revolution we can use the kinematics relations of uniform motion

v = x / T

T = x / v

the distance of a circle with radius r = 0.6 m

x = 2π r

we substitute

T = 2π r / v

let's calculate

T = 2π 0.6/0.02

T = 188.5 s

reduce

t = 188.5 s ( 1 min/60 s) = 3.13 min

correct is C

A seagull flies at a velocity of 9.00 m/s straight into the wind.

RideAnS [48]

a)If it takes the bird 18.0 minutes to fly 6 km away from the earth, the wind's speed will be 4 m/s.

b) The bird would need 7 minutes and 42 seconds to fly back 6 kilometers if he turned around and flew with the wind.

c)Compared to the 133.33 seconds it would take without the wind, the overall round-trip time is affected by the wind.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

The change of distance with respect to time is defined as speed. Speed is a scalar quantity. It is a time-based component. Its unit is m/sec.

The given data in the problem is

A seagull flies at a velocity, $\rm v_{SA} = 9 \ m/sec$

The time the bird takes,t=18.0 min

The distance traveled relative to the earth = 6.00 km

The seagull's relative velocity with reference to the ground as;

$\rm v_{sg} = \frac{6.00 \times 10^3 \ m }{(20 min) \times \frac{60 s }{1 \ min}} \\\\ v_{sg}= 5.00 \ m/sec$

Air velocity with reference to the ground is;

$\rm v_{AG}= v_{SG}-v_{SA} \\\\ v_{AG} = 5.00 \ m/sec - 9.00 \ m/sec \\\\ v_{AG} = -4.00 \ m/sec$

If the bird turns around and flies with the wind, The time will he take to return 6.00 km is;

$\rm v_{SG}=v_{SA}+v_{AG} \\\\ v_{SG}=-900 \ m/sec +(-4.00 \ m/sec) \\\\ v_{SG}= -13.00 \ m/sec$

The time the bird takes;

$\rm t = \frac{x_{SG}}{v_{SG}} \\\\ t = \frac{6.00 \times 10^3 \ m }{13.00 \ m/sec } \\\\ t = 462 m/sec \\\\ t = 7 \ min \ and \ 42 \ sec$

c)\

The total round-trip time compared to what it would be with no wind. is;

$\rm t = 20 \ min( \frac{60 \ sec }{1 \ min} )+ 462 \ sec \\\\ t = 1200 \ sec +6 462 \ ec \\\\ t= 1662 \ sec$

The time for the round trip is;

$\rm t = \frac{12 \times 10^ 3 }{ 9 \ m/sec } \\\\ t = 1333.33 \ sec$

Hence the wind's speed, the time bird would need to fly back the total round-trip time will be 4 m/s, 7 minutes and 42 seconds and 1333.33 sec.
