Answer:
18.2145 meters
Explanation:
Using the conservation of momentum, we have that:
m1 = m1' is the mass of the astronaut, m2=m2' is the mass of the satellite, v1 and v2 are the inicial speed of the astronaut and the satellite (v1 = v2 = 0), and v1' and v2' are the final speed of the astronaut and the satellite. Then we have that:
The negative sign of this speed just indicates the direction the astronaut goes, which is the opposite direction of the satellite.
If the astronaut takes 7.5 seconds to come into contact with the shuttle, their initial distance is:
Answer:
- Peat soil
- Loamy soil
- Clay soil
Explanation:
Peat soil is dark, highly decomposed organic matter found in soil.
Loamy soil is a mixture of materials that holds moisture and drains well and also contains coarse grains and allows water to drain quickly.
Clay soil contains medium grains and retains water. Also it contains fine grains and has little space for water.
Answer: Use the formula q = m·ΔHv in which q = heat energy, m = mass, and ΔHv = heat of vaporization.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given dish width= 48ft
Depth = 4ft
Using equation of a parabola
x²= 4py
48² = 4p 4
4p = 576
P= 144ft
Thus the the receiver should be placed 144ft from t the vertex
Answer:
A vacuum
Explanation:
Sound waves are examples of mechanical waves. Mechanical waves are waves which are transmitted through the vibrations of the particles in a medium.
For example, sound waves in air consist of oscillations of the air particles, which vibrate back and forth (longitudinal wave) along the direction of propagation of the wave itself.
Given this definition of mechanical wave, we see that such a wave cannot propagate if there is no medium, because there are no particles that would oscillate. Therefore, among the choices given, the following one:
a vacuum
represent the only situation in which a sound wave cannot propagate through: in fact, there are no particles in a vacuum, so the oscillations cannot occur. In all other cases, instead, sound waves can propagate.
