In the context of studying major bodies of our solar system, what category of object does our moon best fit?.

Physics

The simplest, obvious category is " <em>Satellites</em> " .

But there's a lot of good reason to call it "Component of Binary Planet" .

As a fraction of the size and mass of its planet, our moon is the largest in the solar system.  

Several writers have pointed out that an alien astronomer studying our solar system might describe the 3rd body from the Sun as a "Binary planet".

A child throws a ball vertically upward to a friend on a balcony 28 m above him. The friend misses the ball on its upward flight
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

t=1.9 sec

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height h=28m

Time t=3s

Generally the Newton's equation for Initial velocity upward is mathematically given by

 s=ut+\frtac{1}{2}at^2

 28=3u-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*3^2

 u=24.03m/s

Generally the velocity at  elevation and depression occurs  as ball arrives and passes through S=28

 v=\sqrt{24.03-2*9.8*28}

 v=5.35m/s and -5.35m/s

Generally the Newton's equation for time to reach initial velocity  is mathematically given by

 v=u+at

 5.35=24.03-9.8t

 t=\frac{28.03-5.35}{9.8}

 t=1.9 sec

Radio signals travel at a rate of 3 × 108 meters per second. how many seconds would it take for a radio signal to travel from a
nlexa [21]
<span>3.2x10^-2 seconds (0.032 seconds)
   This is a simple matter of division. I also suspect it's an exercise in scientific notation, so here is how you divide in scientific notation:

   9.6 x 10^6 m / 3x10^8 m/s

   First, divide the significands like you would normally.
 9.6 / 3 = 3.2

   And subtract the exponent. So
 6 - 8 = -2

   So the answer is 3.2 x 10^-2
 And since the significand is less than 10 and at least 1, we don't need to normalize it.

   So it takes 3.2x10^-2 seconds for the radio signal to reach the satellite.</span>

Suppose that a freely falling object were somehow equipped with an odometer. Would the readings of distance fallen each second i
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

1  greater distances fallen in successive seconds

Explanation:

When a body falls freely it is subjected to the action of the force of gravity, which gives an acceleration of 9.8 m / s2, consequently, we are in an accelerated movement

If we use the kinematic formula we can find the position of the body

       Y = Vo t + ½ to t2

Where the initial velocity is zero or constant and the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

Y = - ½ g t2 = - ½ 9.8 t2 = -4.9 t2

Let's look for the position for successive times

t (s)      Y (m)

  1          -4.9

  2         -19.6

   3        -43.2

The sign indicates that the positive sense is up

It can be clearly seen that the distance is greatly increased every second that passes
