What, it isn’t?!
Sorry, I had to.
As far as I have read and understood, the Sumerians and later the Babylonians both had astronomical calendars that already differentiated planets and stars. Earth was not the center to them, the Sun likely was. That was around 2,200 - 1,600 BC.
After that, Greek philosopher Aristarchus of Samos (310 - 230 BC) was the first (recorded) to have believed the solar system was organized around the Sun, rather than the Earth. His heliocentric model was unpopular during Aristarchus’ lifetime, although it would inspire astronomers centuries later, such as Copernicus and Galileo.
Now, there are numerous archeological findings (cave paintings) and studies, that all suggest an understanding of complex astronomy in prehistoric times dating back as far as 40,000 years. This also explains how early, prehistoric migrants may have navigated the seas.

General kinematics problem.
"Anna is returning from vacation driving down the Sunshine Highway. She travels for a stretch (SA) at a speed of 110 km/h. Then, due to an increase in traffic, Anna is forced to reduce her speed by travelling the second part of the journey (SB) at 60 km/h. The total distance and duration of the trip are 350 km and 4.0 hours respectively.
-> Calculate the time intervals needed to travel SA and SB
-> Calculate the distances covered in the two sections SA and SB".
The results I should get by doing the exercise are in the attached picture.
If you could explain the various steps in the problem you would be doing me a huge favor. Thanks!
Explanation:
What we know:
Sa + Sb = 350 km
Ta + Tb = 4h
S = Vt
With these equations above we can write a system of equations and find Tb, as you see in the picture(s).
After having Tb you can easily find Ta and then Sa and Sb. Hopefully it was clear.

An aircraft flying at a steady velocity of 70 m/s eastwards at a height of 800 m drops a package of supplies.
a) Express the initial velocity of the package as a vector. What
observer on the ground.
b) How long will it take for the package to reach the ground?
c) How fast will it be going as it lands? Express your answer as
a vector.
d) Describe the path of the package as seen by a stationary
assumptions have you made about the frame of reference?
e) Describe the path of the package as seen by someone in the
aeroplane.
The motion of the package can be described as the motion of a projectile,
given that it has an horizontal velocity and it is acted on by gravity.
a) [tex]\vec{v}[/tex] = 70·ib) The package will reach ground in approximately 12.77 seconds.c) The speed of the package as it lands is approximately 145.51 m/s.d) The path of the package based on a stationary frame of reference is parabolice) The path of the package as seen from the plane is directly vertical downwards
Reasons:
Velocity of the aircraft = 70 m/s
Direction of flight of the aircraft = Eastward
Height from which the aircraft drops the package, h = 800 m
a) The initial velocity of the package, [tex]\vec{v}[/tex] = 70·i
b) The time it will take the package to reach the ground, t, is given by the formula;
[tex]\displaystyle h = \mathbf{\frac{1}{2} \cdot g \cdot t^2}[/tex]
Where;
g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²
Therefore;
[tex]\displaystyle t = \mathbf{\sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot h}{g} }}[/tex]
Which gives;
[tex]\displaystyle t = \sqrt{ \frac{2 \times 800}{9.81} } \approx \mathbf{12.77}[/tex]
The time it will take the package to reach the ground, t ≈ 12.77 seconds
c) The vertical velocity just before the package reaches the ground, [tex]v_y[/tex], is given as follows;
[tex]v_y^2[/tex] = 2·g·h
Therefore;
[tex]v_y[/tex] = √(2·g·h)
Which gives;
[tex]v_y[/tex] = √(2 × 9.81 × 800) ≈ 125.28
[tex]v_y[/tex] ≈ 125.28 m/s
Which gives; [tex]\vec{v}[/tex] = 70·i - 125.28·j
Therefore, |v| = √(70² + (-125.28)²) ≈ 143.51
The speed of the package as it lands, |v| ≈ 143.51 m/s
d) The motion of the package that includes both horizontal and vertical motion is a projectile motion.
Therefore;
The path of the package is the path of a projectile, which is a parabolic shape.
e) As seen by someone on the aeroplane, the horizontal velocity will be
zero, therefore, the package will appear as accelerating directly vertical
downwards.

Annie comes to a sudden stop to avoid hitting a deer crossing the road at night. As she hits the breaks, her speed drops from 12 m/s to zero in 1.5 seconds.(p1) How far did she travel during that time? (p2)What was her average acceleration?
Distance(p1)
9 m
8 m
10 m
13.5 m
Acceleration(p2)
6 m/s2
8 m/s2
12 m/s2
16 m/s2
Answer:
1. around 22m
Explanation:
Annie traveled 9 meters during that time. Her average acceleration was -8 m/s².
Annie's initial speed was 12 m/s.
Her final speed was 0 m/s.
The time it took her to stop was 1.5 seconds.
Therefore, the distance she traveled during that time is:
distance = (initial speed + final speed)/2 * time
= (12 m/s + 0 m/s)/2 * 1.5 seconds
= 9 meters
Annie's average acceleration is calculated by dividing her change in velocity by time it took for that change to occur.
In this case, her change in velocity is from 12 m/s to 0 m/s, which is a decrease of 12 m/s.
The time it took for this change to occur is 1.5 seconds.
Therefore, Annie's average acceleration is:
acceleration = change in velocity / time
= -12 m/s / 1.5 seconds
= -8 m/s²
The negative sign indicates that Annie was slowing down.

given the formula p=mv what are the units of p
Answer:
They are kg * m/s.
The unit of the momentum p would be kg × m/s..
What is momentum?Momentum is defined as the ability or tendency of an object to continue moving.
Also momentum is the product of mass and velocity. It can be shown as follows;
p = m × v
where,
p = momentum
m = mass
v = velocity
Thus, we can conclude that the formula p = mv show the relationship between momentum, mass, and velocity.
Now the unit of the momentum p would be;
p = m × v
p = kg × m/s
Hence, the unit of the momentum p would be kg × m/s.

If you are soaking wet and the water on your clothes evaporates, you will feel cold. Explain the cooling effect in the terms of kinetic theory.
Evaporation is a type of vaporization which usually occurs in liquid when molecules of that liquid transform into the gaseous phase.
Evaporation causes cooling. This is because, when a molecule wants to evaporate, it requires heat to do so.
This heat is derived from the surface from which the molecule is about to evaporate. The emission of heat from this surface results in the cooling of the surface left behind.
Kinetic Theory and Evaporation.Liquid molecules are in constant random motion while possessing different velocities.
Molecules which are near the surface possess higher velocities and kinetic energy escape from the surface.
Since the average kinetic energy is a measure of temperature, it implies that the temperature is lowered and hence a person who is soaking wet feels cold when evaporation occurs.

Liquid X of volume 0.5m3 and density 900kgm-3 was mixed with liquid Y of volume 0.4m3 and density 800kgm-3. What was the density of the mixture?
Answer:
Density of the mixture = 855.56kgm-3
Explanation:
Density = Mass / Volume
Volume of Liquid X = 0.5m³
Density of Liquid X = 900kgm-3
Mass of Liquid X = Density × Volume
= 900kgm-3 × 0.5m³ = 450kg
Volume of Liquid Y = 0.4m³
Density of Liquid Y = 800kgm-3
Mass of Liquid Y = Density × Volume
= 800kgm-3 × 0.4m³= 320kg
As X and Y are mixed, we add their masses and volumes together:
Mass = 770kg
Volume = 0.9m³
Now we can find the density of the mixture:
Density = 770kg / 0.9m³ = 855.56kgm-3 (rounded to the 2nd decimal)
A student on a bicycle decided to determine his acceleration when coasting down a steep hill. The student started from a full stop and reached a velocity of 8.75 m/s in 3.8 s. What was his average acceleration? Assume that downhill is the positive direction.
Answer:
A=2.2
Explanation:
You have to lay everything out first.
You are given the:
Velocity and the time
V=8.75m/s
t=3.8s
Now you need to know what you are looking for, and that is the average acceleration.
Write down the formula (teachers like this)
A=v/t
Now calculate:
8.75/3.8= 2.3026315789473
You can now round down since the number next to the decimal is below 5
The number of significant digits will be 2 because that is the lowest number in the question. This means you will only need to display 2 numbers.
The final answer will be:
A=2.2
