The question is oversimplified, and pretty sloppy.
Relative to the Earth . . .
The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around us, with a period of
27.32... days, and with the Earth at one focus of the ellipse.
Relative to the Sun . . .
The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun, with a period
of 365.24... days, and with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse,
and the Moon itself makes little dimples or squiggles in its orbit
on account of the gravitational influence of the nearby Earth.
I'm sorry if that seems complicated. You know that motion is
always relative to something, and the solar system is not simple.
Answer:
480J
Explanation:
Using the formula:
Delta U = Q - W
Q:Heat (J)
Delta U: Changes in internal Energy (J)
W:Work (J)
We can plug in the give numbers, Q and W.
Delta U = 658J - 178J = 480J
Answer:
B. 7.5 m/s^2
Explanation:
To find acceleration you need to subtract the final velocity by the starting velocity then divide that by the time
a= v-v/t
a= 60-0/8
a= 60/8
a=7.5 m/s^2
Answer: I think Its the Height is 11.76 Meters (38.582677 Feet) between the bridge and the ground
Explanation: Supposing that where not counting air resistance in the equation, the equation
states that 1/2 multiplied by earths gravitational acceleration multiplied by the amount of time to reach the bottom: 2.4 seconds equals 11.76 meters of height between the bridge and the ground.
I think the logical question here is to either find the distance or the displacement. They differ in such a way that distance is a scalar quantity that does not focus on the direction. Displacement is a vector quantity that covers the distance from the starting point to end point. Because it travels only in one direction (to the east), in this condition, distance is equal to displacement.
Distance = Displacement = 3,000 m + 1,500 m = 4,500 m
