Answer:

The acceleration of the cheetahs is 10.1 m/s²

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation of velocity of an object moving along a straight line with constant acceleration is the following:

v = v0 + a · t

Where:

v = velocity of the object at time t.

v0 = initial velocity.

a = acceleration.

t = time

We know that at t = 2.22 s, v = 50.0 mi/h. The initial velocity, v0, is zero.

Let's convert mi/h into m/s:

50.0 mi/h · (1609.3 m / 1 mi) · (1 h / 3600 s) = 22.4 m/s

Then, using the equation:

v = v0 + a · t

22.4 m/s = 0 m/s + a · 2.22 s

Solving for a:

22.4 m/s / 2.22 s = a

a = 10.1 m/s²

The acceleration of the cheetahs is 10.1 m/s²

In an experiment, a torque of a known magnitude is exerted along the edge of a rotating disk. The disk rotates about its center.
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

B) The amount of time the torque is applied to the disk, because the time interval is related to the angular impulse of the disk.

Explanation:

Angular impulse = Torque x time

= change in angular momentum

So,

Torque x time  = change in angular momentum

change in angular momentum = Torque x time

Torque is already known .

Hence to know the change in angular momentum what is needed to know is time duration of torque acting on the body .

The newly formed xenon nucleus is left in an excited state. Thus, when it decays to a state of lower energy a gamma ray is emitt
nevsk [136]

Answer:3.87*10^-4

Explanation:

What is the decrease in mass, delta mass Xe , of the xenon nucleus as a result of this deca

We have been given the wavelength of the gamma ray, find the frequency using c = freq*wavelength.

C=f*lambda

3*10^8=f*3.44*10^-12

F=0.87*10^20 hz

Then with the frequency, find the energy emitted using equation

E=hf E = freq*Plank's constant

E=.87*10^20*6.62*10^-34

E=575.94*10^(-16)

With this energy, convert into MeV from joules.

With the energy in MeV, use E=mc^2 using c^2 = 931.5 MeV/u.

Plugging and computing all necessary numbers gives you

3.87*10^-4 u.

How do Leeuwenhoek’s observations of animalcules compare to Hooke’s observations of cells in the cork?
fomenos

Answer:

Robert Hooke

Was the first to use the word "cell"

Observed cork cells

Anton van Leeuwenhoek

Observed "animalcules"

Used polished lens .

Explanation:

Anton van Leeuwenhoek is known as father of microbiology. He is credited to improve the quality of lens in microscope. His first observation of organisms called animalcules.

He is credited to have build microscope that could get magnified by 200 times. He used word animalcules for small organisms from pond water when first observed in microscope. He discovered protozoa and named it animalcules".

Robert Hooke is famed for discovering cell from a cork of plant. He observed a compartment or honey comb like divisions when observed these cork cells under the microscope and named it cell. He was only able to see the cell wall as the cork cells are dead cells.

Essam is abseiling down a steep cliff. How much gravitational potential energy does he lose for every metre he descends? His mas
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

720 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy that Essam loses for every metre is given by:

\Delta U=mg \Delta h

where

m=72 kg is Essam's mass

g=10 N/kg is the gravitational field strength

\Delta h=1 m is the difference in height

By substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

\Delta U=(72 kg)(10 N/kg)(1 m)=720 J

<h2>Volume of vehicle Assembly Building at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida = 3.67 x 10⁹ L</h2>

Explanation:

The Vehicle Assembly Building at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida has a volume of 3,666,500 m³.

Volume = 3,666,500 m³

1 m³ = 1000 L

So volume = 3,666,500 x 1000 = 3666500000 L

Volume of vehicle Assembly Building at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida = 3666500000 L

Volume of vehicle Assembly Building at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida = 3.67 x 10⁹ L
