Which would be used to measure the distance between the earth and a planet ,meter ruler or a measuring tape? Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

parallax

Due to foreshortening, nearby objects show a larger parallax than farther objects when observed from different positions, so parallax can be used to determine distances. To measure large distances, such as the distance of a planet or a star from Earth, astronomers use the principle of parallax.

This question is divided into two parts. This is part (a) of the question. A proton accelerates from rest in a uniform electric field of 580 N/C. At some later time, its speed is 1.00 x 106 m/s. (a) Find the magnitude of the acceleration of the proton. (Mass of the proton is 1.67 x 10-27 kg and charge is 1.60 x 10-19 C) (in the following options 10^10 m/s^2 is 1010 m/s2)

Answers

Answer:

The acceleration of proton is 5.56 x 10^10 m/s^2 .

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = 0

Electric field, E = 580 N/C

final speed, v = 10^6 m/s

(a) Let the acceleration is a.

According to the Newton's second law

F = m a = q E

where, q is the charge of proton and m is the mass.

[tex]a= \frac{q E}{m}\\\\a = \frac{1.6\times10^{-19}\times 580}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}\\\\a= 5.56\times 10^{10} m/s^2[/tex]

Noticing large amounts of algal growth in her small farm pond, a farmer adds about 20 grass carp to feed on the abundant algae and plants. After several years, the carp grow large, exceeding 20 pounds each in size. Late one summer, the farmer notices that the carp and most of the other fish are dead. The water also smells very bad. Which one of the following is the most likely explanation for the death of these fish?
A. the algae overgrew the pond and produced toxic levels of ozone
B. carbon dioxide released by the carp and algae eventually suffocated the fish in the pond
C. the large carp grew so large that they could not get enough oxygen
D. bacteria feeding on the large volume of carp feces depleted the oxygen

Answers

Answer:

D. bacteria feeding on the large volume of carp feces depleted the oxygen

Explanation:

In the context, it is given that in a small farm pond, the owner added 20 grass carp and feed them with the abundant plants and algae that is found on her pond. The carp grew large after many years but one summer the owner found the grass carps along with other fishes were dead.

The most possible explanation for the dead of the fishes in the pond because the bacteria feeds on the carp feces which depletes the dissolved oxygen present in the water. Thus the fishes could not breathe and were finally dead.

Therefore, the correct option is (D).

Answers

Answer:

The total displacement of the car is 250 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

A car at a position 150 km [W] of Toronto travels to a position 400 km [W] of  Toronto.

Total displacement = final position - initial position

= 400 km - 150 km

= 250 km

So, the total displacement of the car is 250 km.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a simple gravitational force problem using the equation:

[tex]F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}[/tex] where F is the gravitational force, G is the universal gravitational constant, the m's are the masses of the2 objects, and r is the distance between the centers of the masses. I am going to state G to 3 sig fig's so that is the number of sig fig's we will have in our answer. If we are solving for the gravitational force, we can fill in everything else where it goes. Keep in mind that I am NOT rounding until the very end, even when I show some simplification before the final answer.

Filling in:

[tex]F_g=\frac{(6.67*19^{-11})(7.2000*10^{26})(5.0000*10^{23})}{(6.10*10^{11})^2}[/tex] I'm going to do the math on the top and then on the bottom and divide at the end.

[tex]F_g=\frac{2.4012*10^{40}}{3.721*10^{23}}[/tex] and now when I divide I will express my answer to the correct number of sig dig's:

A pair of forces with equal magnitude, opposite directions, and different lines of action is called a "couple." When a couple acts on a rigid object, the couple produces a torque that does not depend on the location of the axis. The drawing shows a couple acting on a tire wrench, each force being perpendicular to the wrench. Determine an expression for the torque produced by the couple when the axis is perpendicular to the tire and passes through the following. Express your answers in terms of the magnitude F of the force and the length L of the wrench.

Answers

The drawing shows the couple acting on a tire wrench is missing and so i have attached it.

We are to find an expression for the torque when the axis is perpendicular to the tire and passes through the points A, B & C

Answer:

Point A: τ = Fl

Point B: τ = 0

Point C: - Fl

Explanation:

Formula for torque is;

τ = F × d

Where;

F is perpendicular force

d is distance.

Thus;

> At point A, it means we are taking torque about point A and so we have;

τ = (-F × 0) + (F × L)

τ = Fl

> At point B, it means we are taking torque about point B and so we have;

τ = (-F × L/2) + (F × L/2)

τ = -(FL/2) + (FL/2)

τ = 0

> At point C, it means we are taking torque about point C and so we have;

τ = (-F × L) + (F × 0)

τ = -FL

Two parallel conducting plates are separated by 12.0 cm, and one of them is taken to be at zero volts. (a) What is the magnitude of the electric field strength between them, if the potential 5.6 cm from the zero volt plate is 450 V

Answers

Answer:

-8.036 kV/m

Explanation:

The electric field E = -ΔV/Δx where ΔV = change in electric potential = V - V' where V = electric potential at x = 5.6 cm =  450 V and V' = electric potential at x = 0 cm, = 0 V . So, ΔV = V - V' = 450 V - 0 V = 450 V.

Δx = distance between the 0 V plate and the 450 V point = 5.6 cm = 0.056 m

So, E = -ΔV/Δx

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

E = -ΔV/Δx

E = -450 V/0.056 m

E = -8035.7 V/m

E = -8.0357 kV/m

E ≅ -8.036 kV/m

Since the electric field between two parallel conducting plates is constant, the electric field between the plates is E = -8.036 kV/m

A delivery boy on a bicycle drags a wagon full of newspapers by pedaling at 0.90 m/s for 45 minutes using a force of 40 N. How much work has the boy done?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation for work is

W = FΔx

We are looking for work, so that means we have to be able to fill in the Force and the displacement. We have Force, but we don't have displacement. But the thing we need to do first is change the 45 minutes to seconds because the velocity is in m/s, not m/min.

45 minutes is 2700 seconds.

That means that  the displacement is

Δx = (.90)(2700) so

Δx = 2430 m

Now we plug that in to find work, along with the given Force:

W = 40(2430) so

W = 97200 J (and that is not the correct number of sig fig's but I have a feeling you're not too into that in class, because if you were, the 40 N would be expressed as 40.0 or 4.0 × 10¹)

Priya is responsible for collecting canned food along three different streets for her school's annual Thanksgiving Food Drive. She walks 300 m [N] along Oak Road, 500 m [E] along Second Street, and then 150 m [S45°W] along Cross Ave. She completes the journey in 10 minutes.Calculate her total distance, displacement, speed, and velocity.

Answers

Good luck sorry don’t know the answer

As per the details given, Priya's total distance traveled is 950 meters, displacement is approximately 410.52, speed is 95 meters per minute, and velocity is 41.05 meters per minute.

To calculate Priya's total distance:

Total distance = 300 m + 500 m + 150 m = 950 m

So, Priya's total distance traveled is 950 meters.

To calculate Priya's displacement, we need to find the straight-line distance and direction from her starting point to her ending point.

Displacement = √((Δx)² + (Δy)²)

For Δx:

Δx = 500 m - 150 m × cos(45°)

Δx = 500 m - 150 m × 0.707

Δx = 500 m - 106.05 m

Δx = 393.95 m

For Δy:

Δy = 150 m × sin(45°)

Δy = 150 m × 0.707

Δy = 106.05 m

Displacement = √((393.95 m)² + (106.05 m)²)

Displacement ≈ 410.52 m

So, Priya's displacement is approximately 410.52 meters in a direction of approximately N36°W.

To calculate Priya's speed, we use the formula:

Speed = Total distance ÷ Time

Speed = 950 m ÷ 10 min

Speed = 95 m/min

So, Priya's speed is 95 meters per minute.

To calculate Priya's velocity:

Velocity = Displacement ÷ Time

Velocity = 410.52 m ÷ 10 min

Velocity = 41.05 m/min

Thus, Priya's velocity is 41.05 meters per minute in a direction of N36°W.
