Physics
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]2 years ago
6 0
Both verbs come from Olde English. 
That's why everybody clearly understood their meaning until
a hundred years ago, but nobody understands them now.


"Waxing"  =  growing

For two weeks after the New Moon, it's growing toward Full.
First it's a waxing crescent for a week, then it's waxing gibbous.


"Waning"  =  shrinking

For two weeks after the Full Moon, it's shrinking toward New.
First it's waning gibbous for a week, then it's a waning crescent.

A jet ski accelerates towards a ramp at 2.5 m/s/s for 35 s until it finally flies off the water. Determine the
zlopas [31]

Answer:

1531 m

Explanation:

The motion of the jet ski is an uniformly accelerated motion, so we can find the distance travelled by using the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For the jet ski in this problem,

a=2.5 m/s^2

t = 35 s

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

Solving for s, we find the distance travelled:

d=0+\frac{1}{2}(2.5)(35)^2=1531 m

What is the potential energy of a 2500 g object suspended 5 m above the earth's surface?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

Potential energy, which is the energy a body assumes at a position, can be calculated using the formula:

P.E = m × g × h

Where;

m = mass (kg)

g = acceleration due to gravity (10m/s²)

h = height (m)
