Why do the constellations seem to move around in the sky?.

Physics

Gnoma [55]3 years ago

Answer: As Earth spins on its axis, we, as Earth-bound observers, spin past this background of distant stars. As Earth spins, the stars appear to move across our night sky from east to west, for the same reason that our Sun appears to “rise” in the east and “set” in the west.

How long was a 60 W light bulb turned on if it used a total of 580 J of energy?
icang [17]
Here's the tool you need.  You can't answer the question without this:

           "1 watt"
means
           "1 joule of energy, generated, used, or moved, every second".

So      60 watts  =  60 joules per second

           Total energy generated,
            used, or moved                  = (power) x (time).

                                     580 joules  =  (60 watts) x (time)

Divide each side
by  (60 watts):              Time  =  (580 joules) / (60 joules/sec) 

                                               =  (9 and 2/3)  seconds  .

Two circus performers rehearse a trick in which a ball and a dart collide. Horatio stands on a platform 9.8 m above the ground a
xenn [34]

Answer:

Time = 0.55 s

Height = 8.3 m

Explanation:

The ball is dropped and therefore has an initial velocity of 0. Its acceleration, g, is directed downward in the same direction as its displacement, h_b.

The dart is thrown up in which case acceleration, g, acts downward in an opposite direction to its displacement, h_d. Both collide after travelling for a time period, t. Let the height of the dart from the ground at collision be h_d and the distance travelled by the ball measured from the top be h_b.

It follows that h_d+h_b=9.8.

Applying the equation of motion to each body (h = v_0t + 0.5at^2),

Ball:

h_b=0\times t + 0.5\times 9.8t^2 (since v_{b0} =0.)

h_b=4.9t^2

Dart:

h_d=17.8\times t - 0.5\times9.8t^2 (the acceleration is opposite to the displacement, hence the negative sign)

h_d=17.8\times t - 4.9t^2

But

h_b+h_d =9.8

17.8\times t - 4.9t^2+4.9t^2 =9.8

17.8\times t = 9.8

t = 0.55

The height of the collision is the height of the dart above the ground, h_d.

h_d=17.8\times t - 4.9t^2

h_d=17.8\times 0.55 - 4.9\times(0.55)^2

h_d=9.79 - 1.48225

h_d=8.3
