Comets orbit the sun just like planets do. Except a comet usually has a very elongated orbit. Thanks to the laws of gravity comets obey the same laws. A comets orbit takes it very close to the sun and then far away again.

The human tibia breaks under an impulse of 55 Ns. If after falling a person typically comes to eat in a time span of 0.005 s how
ozzi

Answer:

0.73 m/s

Explanation:

From Newton second law of motion,

I = m(v-u)...................... Equation 1

Where I = Impulse, m = mass of the person, v = final velocity, u = Initial velocity.

make v the subject of the equation

v =(I/m)+u................. Equation 2

Note: u = 0 m/s as the person is falling from an height.

Given: I = 55 Ns, m = 75 kg, u = 0 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

v = 55/75

v = 0.73 m/s

Dolphins rely on echolocation to be able to survive in the ocean. In a 20 °C ocean, a dolphin produces an ultrasonic sound with
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

wavelength =  0.01 m

distance = 162.8 m

Explanation:

Given that;

Speed of sound in water = 1,480 meters per second

Frequency of ultrasound = 125KHZ

From=

v=λf

v= speed of sound

λ= wavelength of sound

f= frequency of sound

λ= 1,480 ms-1/125 * 10^3 Hz

λ= 0.01 m

From

v = 2x/t

where;

v= velocity of sound in water

x= distance traveled

t = time taken

x = vt/2

x = 1,480 ms-1 *  0.220 s/2

x= 162.8 m
