Answer:

12m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance walked westward  = 2.8m

Time of travel  = 5min

Distance walked eastward = 9.2m

Time of travel  = 10min

Unknown:

The total shopper's travel distance  = ?

Solution:

Total distance traveled is the sum of the length of path covered by a body. It is a scalar quantity.

 Total distance = distance walked westward + distance walked eastward

  Total distance  = 2.8m + 9.2m  = 12m

Answer:

a) v=0.999124c

b) E=7.566*10^{22}

c) E_a=760 times\ larger

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Distance to Betelgeuse d_b=430ly

Mass of Rocket M_r=20000

Total Time in years traveled T_d=36years

Total energy used by the United States in the year 2000 E_{2000}=1.0*10^20

Generally the equation of speed of rocket v mathematically given by

v=\frac{2d}{\triangle t}

v=860ly/ \triangle t

where

\triangle t=\frac{\triangle t'}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\frac{36}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\sqrt{(860)^2+(36)^2}

\triangle t=860.7532

Therefore

v=\frac{860ly}{ 860.7532}

v=0.999124c

b)

Generally the equation of the energy E required to attain prior speed mathematically given by

E=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(v/c)^2} }-1(20000kg)(3*10^8m/s)^2

E=7.566*10^{22}

c)Generally the equation of the energy E_a required to accelerate the rocket mathematically given by

E_a=\frac{E}{E_{2000}}

E_a=\frac{7.566*10^{22}}{1.0*10^{20}}

E_a=760 times\ larger

The distance between planets varies as they move in their orbits. The minimum distance from the Earth to Mars is about 0.35 AU.
Alina [70]

Answer:

52,360,000km

Explanation:

To solve this problem you use a conversion factor.

By taking into account that 1UA = 1.496*10^{8}km you obtain:

0.35UA*\frac{1.496*10^{8}km}{1UA}=52,360,000km

hence, 0.35UA is about 52,360,000km. This is the least distance between Mars and Earth

When you throw a ball, the work you do to accelerate it equals the kinetic energy the ball gains. if you do twice as much work w
nata0808 [166]
It doesn't because when u threw it the first time, u notice that the ball eventually came to a stop because of the force that was acting upon it. Although when u throw it harder it will start out faster than the first time u threw it because u put more kinetic energy onto the ball. But the same thing happens with this ball that happened to the second ball, they both have a type of force acting upon them.
