It had better be a vector, otherwise there's be no excuse for calling it a "velocity". It would just be the muzzle speed.

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Since there is no external force, there is no change (movement) in the center of mass. Internally, the center of mass might change position, but the external result is still zero net velocity.

The net recoil velocity must be zero.

The sun's properties (luminosity, size, and temperature) have not changed much over the last 4.6 billion years. what do you thin
Vikentia [17]

The answer is; The sun will turn into a red giant


This occurs as the hydrogen fuel in the fusion core of the sun begins to deplete. When the hydrogen fuel is depleted, the star begins to collapse on itself due to gravity. This pressure causes the heavier helium to begin fusing in the area around the core.  The stars begin to heat up again producing enough energy to push out the outer shells of the star. This causes the star to expand. The outer shells become less hot hence the decrease in luminosity of red giants.

I don’t understand the 4th one please help someone.
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

From point A to point D is 20

The final displacement is 32

Explanation:

AB=8

BC=8

CD=4

DE=8

EF=4

DE= 8 because the object moves 4 meters in each direction.

AB+BC+CD=20(A to D)

AB+BC+CD+DE+EF=32(Final displacement)

An elevator accelerates upward at 1.2 m/s 2 . the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . what is the upward force exerted by the
Marysya12 [62]
We can find the force by using the following formula;
N = ma +  mg
Fa = ma = 76 x 1.2 = 91.2
Fg = mg = 76 x 9.8 = 744.8
N = 91.2 + 744.8 = 836
So, the force is 836 N.
