g A change in the initial _____ of a projectile changes the range and maximum height of the projectile.​
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Velocity.

Explanation:

Projectile motion is characterized as the motion that an object undergoes when it is thrown into the air and it is only exposed to acceleration due to gravity.

As per the question, 'any change in the initial velocity of the projectile(object having gravity as the only force) would lead to a change in the range as well as the maximum height of the projectile.' To illustrate numerically:

Horizontal range: As per expression:

R= (u^{2}*sin2θ)/g

the range depending on the square of the initial velocity.

Maximum height: As per expression:

H= (u^{2} * sin^{2}θ )/2g

the maximum distance also depends upon square of the initial velocity.

When making maps of the large-scale universe, astronomers estimate distances to the vast majority of galaxies by using:
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

<em>The comoving distance and the proper distance scale</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The comoving distance scale removes the effects of the expansion of the universe, which leaves us with a distance that does not change in time due to the expansion of space (since space is constantly expanding). The comoving distance and proper distance are defined to be equal at the present time; therefore, the ratio of proper distance to comoving distance now is 1. The scale factor is sometimes not equal to 1. The distance between masses in the universe may change due to other, local factors like the motion of a galaxy within a cluster.  Finally, we note that the expansion of the Universe results in the proper distance changing, but the comoving distance is unchanged by an expanding universe.

3) A dock worker pushes a 72 kg crate up a 2.0 m high,
Vlad [161]

Work done on the crate is 1411.2 J

Explanation:

Work done is defined as the product of force and the distance moved by the object. The unit of work done is in joules and denoted by the symbol J.

                                     Work done = F * d

where F represents the force and d represents the distance moved by the object.

mass = 72 kg , distance moved by the object is given by 2.0 m

Force F = mass * gravity = 72 * 9.8

             = 705.6 N =706 N.

Work done = 706 * 2.0 = 1412 J.

PLSS HELP!!! THIS IS URGENT
Fed [463]

Answer:

D. Sand carried by rivers flows over and weathers the rocks.

Explanation:

The sand in the river is move because of the flow of the river and as the sand moves it grinds on the rocks in the river. This starts a process know as abrasion, in other words it means that it wheathers(grinds) against the rocks.
