Scientists can tell this by looking at seismic waves released by earthquakes. ( if you need me to elaborate more ask)
Answer:
111011
Explanation:
59/2 = 29, remainder is 1
29/2 = 14, remainder is 1
14/2 = 7, remainder is 0
7/2 = 3, remainder is 1
3/2 = 1, remainder is 1
1/2 = 0, remainder is 1
Answer:
65.87 s
Explanation:
For the first time,
Applying
v² = u²+2as.............. Equation 1
Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance
From the question,
Given: u = 0 m/s (from rest), a = 1.99 m/s², s = 60 m
Substitute these values into equation 1
v² = 0²+2(1.99)(60)
v² = 238.8
v = √238.8
v = 15.45 m/s
Therefore, time taken for the first 60 m is
t = (v-u)/a............ Equation 2
t = (15.45-0)/1.99
t = 7.77 s
For the final 40 meter,
t = (v-u)/a
Given: v = 0 m/s(decelerates), u = 15.45 m/s, a = -0.266 m/s²
Substitute into the equation above
t = (0-15.45)/-0.266
t = 58.1 seconds
Hence total time taken to cover the distance
T = 7.77+58.1
T = 65.87 s
Light gates are more reliable. When using a manual stop watch, it is difficult to stop it at an exact time. A light gate is able to detect when an object passes through a 'gate' with the infrared transmitter and receiver.
1 Newton in Earth gravity is the equivalent weight of 1/9.80665 kg on Earth. This is derived using Newton's second law f=ma and assuming Earth gravity of 9.80665 m/s2. 1 N (Earth) = 0.101971621297793 kg.
