Answer:

Explanation:

Kepler 's first law - sometimes referred to as the law of ellipses - explains that planets are orbiting the sun in a path described as an ellipse. An ellipse can easily be constructed using a pencil, two tacks, a string, a sheet of paper and a piece of cardboard. Tack the sheet of paper to the cardboard using the two tacks.

Answer:

Kepler's First Law: each planet's orbit about the Sun is an ellipse. The Sun's center is always located at one focus of the orbital ellipse. The Sun is at one focus. The planet follows the ellipse in its orbit, meaning that the planet to Sun distance is constantly changing as the planet goes around its orbit.

What is the acceleration of a Porsche that can go from 15 mi/hr to 75 mi/hr in 4 seconds?
Elodia [21]

Hi there!

Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time = Δv/Δt

Thus:

a = (75 - 15)/4 = 60/4 = 15 mi/hr²

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Yes the body will receive a dangerous shock in both cases.

Explanation:

Different parts of the body has different resistance. skin has the high resistance as compared to other organs of the body.

Dry skin has high resistance than wet skin this is because water is relatively good conductor of electricity, it adds parallel path to the current flow and hence reduces skin resistance.

Dry hands body has approximately 500 kΩ resistance and if 120 V electricity supply current received will be:

I = V/R= 120/ 500*10^3

I= 0.24 mA

Even the current seems is much lower than the safe zone but this is the case in case of DC voltage in case of AC voltage the body will receive a shock this is because the skin pass more current when the voltage is changing i.e. AC.

Similarly for wet hands body resistance is 1 kΩ. so the current through the body seems to be:

I = 120 / 1000

I = 12 mA

The current is higher than safe zone so the body will receive a dangerous shock.

Normally, jet engines push air out the back of the engine, resulting in forward thrust, but commercial aircraft often have thrus
ANEK [815]

Answer:

When the ejected air is moving in the downward direction then the thrust force acts in the upward direction, due to reversal thrust, the jets can take off vertically without needing a runway this way.

Explanation:

Newton’s third law motion states that for every action there will be an equal and opposite reaction.

Thrust reversal is also known as reverse thrust. It acts opposite to the motion of the aircraft by providing the deceleration.

Commercial aircraft moves the ejected air in the forward direction means that the thrust will acts opposite to the motion of the aircraft that is backward direction due to thrust reversal. This thrust force might be used to decelerate the craft.

Uses of thrust reversal in practice:

When the ejected air is moving forward direction then the thrust force moving backward direction due to reversal thrust the speed of the craft slows down.

When the ejected air is moving in the downward direction then the thrust force acts in the upward direction, due to reversal thrust, the jets can take off vertically without needing a runway this way.
