Yes because anyone from anywhere can see the star but you have to be in a certain spot

Answer:

If conditions are just right, you can see Polaris from just south of the equator.  Although Polaris is also known as the North Star, it doesn't lie precisely above Earth's North Pole. If it did, Polaris would have a declination of exactly 90 degree.

An 80-kg man is skating northward and happens to suddenly collide with a 20-kg boy who is ice skating toward the east. Immediate
Fantom [35]

Answer:

6.25 m/s

Explanation:

mass of man (m1) = 80 kg

mass of boy (m2) = 20 kg

mass of man and boy after collision (m12)= 20 + 80 = 100 kg

velocity of man and boy after collision (v) = 2.5 m/s

angle θ = 60 °

How fast was the boy moving just before the collision ?

  • From the diagram attached, the first image shows the man and the boys motion while the second diagram shows their motion rearranged to form a triangle. With the momentum of the man and the boy forming the sides of the triangle.
  • M₁₂ =  total momentum after collision = m12 x v = 100 x 2.5 = 250
  • Mboy = momentum of the boy before collision = m2 x Velocity of boy
  • Mman = momentum of the man before collision = m1 x velocity of man  
  • from the triangle, cos θ = \frac{Mboy}{M₁₂}

        cos 60 = \frac{Mboy}{250}

        Mboy = 250 x cos 60 = 125

  • recall that momentum of the boy (Mboy) also = m2 x Velocity of boy

        therefore

        125 = 20 x velocity of boy

         velocity of boy = 125 / 20 = 6.25 m/s

You’re squeezing a springy rubber ball in your hand. If you push inward on it with a force of 1 N, it dents inward 2 mm. How far
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

10mm

Explanation:

According to Hooke's law which states that "the extension of an elastic material is directly proportional to the applied force provided the elastic limit is not exceeded. Direct proportionality there means, increase/decrease in the force leads to increase/decrease in extension.

Mathematically, F = ke where;

F is the applied force

k is the elastic constant

e is the extension

from the formula k = F/e

k = F1/e1 = F2/e2

Given force of 1N indents the spring inwards by 2mm, this means force of 1N generates extension of 2mm

Let F1 = 1N e1 = 2mm

The extension that will be produced If force of 5N is applied to the string is what we are looking for. Therefore F2 = 5N; e2= ?

Substituting this values in the formula above we have

1/2=5/e2

Cross multiplying;

e2 = 10mm

This shows that we must have dent it by 10mm before it pushes outwards by a 5N force

For a bronze alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 267 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 115 GPa. (a) What
choli [55]

Answer

given,

Stress for plastic deformation =  267 MPa

modulus of elasticity = 115 GPa

cross sectional area = 377 mm²

a)    maximum load (in N) that may be applied to a specimen

= σ x A

= 267 x  10⁶ x  377 x 10⁻⁶

= 100659 N

b)   modulus of elasticity = stress/strain

     115 x 10⁹  =\dfrac{267 \times 10^6}{\dfrac{\Delta l}{L}}

        L = 127 mm

      115 x 10⁹  =\dfrac{267 \times 10^6}{\dfrac{\Delta l}{127}}

      \dfrac{\Delta l}{127}=\dfrac{267 \times 10^6}{115\times 10^9}

    Δ l =   0.295 mm

maximum length after the stretched = 127 mm + 0.295 mm

                                                            = 127.295 mm

An object with mass 3M is launched straight up. When it reaches its maximum height, a small explosion breaks the object into two
german

Answer:

x_{L} = 106\,m

Explanation:

Each piece is analyzed by using the Principle of Momentum Conservation and the Impulse Theorem:

Heavier object:

(2\cdot M)\cdot (0) + F\cdot \Delta t = (2\cdot M)\cdot v_{H}

Lighter object:

M\cdot (0) + F\cdot \Delta t = M\cdot v_{L}

After the some algebraic handling, the following relationship is found:

M\cdot v_{L} = 2\cdot M\cdot v_{H}

v_{L} = 2\cdot v_{H}

Given that both pieces have horizontal velocities only and both are modelled as projectiles, the horizontal component of velocity remains constant and directly proportional to travelled distance. Then:

\frac{v_{L}}{v_{H}} = \frac{x_{L}}{53\,m}

2 = \frac{x_{L}}{53\,m}

x_{L} = 106\,m

What's the surface temperature of a woodstove with surface area 1.4 m2 that radiates energy at the rate of 18 kw? treat the stov
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Assuming the emissivity is 1.0, the temperature of the wood stove will be about 417 C

Explanation:

You can use the Stefan-Boltzmann formula tying energy with temperature of a blackbody:

P=\epsilon \sigma AT^4

P - rate of radiation

\epsilon is the blackbody's emissivity

\sigma = 5.67\cdot 10^{-8} \frac{W}{m^2\cdot K^4} is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant

A - area

T - temperature

So,

P=\epsilon \sigma AT^4\implies T = \sqrt[4]{\frac{P}{\epsilon \sigma A}}\\T = \sqrt[4]{\frac{18000W}{1.0\cdot 5.67\cdot 10^{-8} \frac{W}{m^2\cdot K^4}\cdot 1.4 m^2}}\approx 690K \approx 417^\circ C

Assuming the emissivity ( a number between 0 and 1) is 1.0, the temperature of the wood stove will be about 417 C. The emissivity number was not given in your question. If you determine what it is, you can divide this result by the fourth power of that value to get an updated result.
