answer is an ASTEROID

Explanation:

Iridium is a material that forms at very high temperatures, which is why its presence shows that in the impact zone the temperature rose a lot, so we can imagine that the impact was by a body traveling at high speed, which is consistent with a body that comes from space.

An asteroid is a celestial body of some size that when entering the atmosphere heats up and collides with the Earth, leaving a crater that in general is much larger than the diameter of the object.

A meteorite is a small fraction of an asteroid that has been separated by the pressure of the sun, the attraction of the Earth, Moon or another massive body or a combination of these effects, in general, meteorites are small and when they enter the atmosphere They are consumed by heat and very few reach the surface of the Earth, those that do reach are very small.

Therefore due to the size of the crater and the existence of many dead animals around the body must have been very heavy, so the correct answer is an ASTEROID

Abbey always gets zits on her chin and she can t figure out the best method to get rid of them. She decides to test several products to see which clears her face up fastest: washing with soap and water, washing with an acne face wash from the pharmacy, and washing her face with organic oils. For one week she just washes her face with water. The next week she washes every day with soap and water. The following week she uses the acne wash, and the last week she uses the organic oils. Each week she records the number of zits she has on her chin at

Physics

tomatoes are being thrown horizontally off the top of a building 50.0 meters above the ground at 3.00 m/s. How far will the tomatoes travel horizontally by the time it hits the ground? Use significant figures, and estimate g to be equal to 9.81 m/s^2

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

Answer:

9.6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by the tomatoes to each the ground

using h = 1/2 g t^2

t^2 = 2h/g = 2 x 50/ 9.8 = 10.2

t = 3.2 sec

horizontal ditance = speed x time = 3 x 3.2 = 9.6 meters

A puck moves 2.35 m/s in a -22.0° direction. A hockey stick pushes it for 0.215 s, changing its velocity to 6.42 m/s in a 50.0° direction. What was the magnitude of the acceleration?

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

Answer:
7.25 secs.

Explanation:
First find the distance it takes to stop
s = [v^2-u^2]/2a = 0^2 - 8.7^2/2[-2.4] = 8.7^2/4.8
Next find the time it takes to go that distance , s = ut +[1/2] at^2
8.7^2/4.8 = 8.7t +[1/2] [ -2.4]t^2 , rearrange and
t^2 -[8.7/1.2]+ 8.7^2/[(1.2)(4.8)]=0 complete the square
[t - (8.7/2.4)]^2=0
t = 8.7/2.4 = 3.625 secs
At this stage the deceleration will push the object back in the direction it came from for another 3.625 secs when it will be 8.7 m/s again
Total time , T =2t = 7.25 secs.

Note:
The term differential is used in calculus to refer to an infinitesimal (infinitely small) change in some varying quantity. For example, if x is a variable, then a change in the value of x is often denoted Δx (pronounced delta x). The differential dx represents an infinitely small change in the variable x.

compare the momentum of a 6,300 kg elephant walking 0.11 m/s and a 50-kg dolphins swimming 10.m/s

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

First sum applied the Newton's second law motion: F = ma
Force = mass* acceleration
This motion define force as the product of mass times Acceleration (vs.Velocity). Since acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time,
force=(mass*velocity)/time
such that, (mass*velocity)/time=momentum/time
Therefore we get mass*velocity=momentum
Momentum=mass*velocity
Elephant mass=6300 kg; velocity=0.11 m/s
Momentum=6300*0.11
P=693 kg (m/s)
Dolphin mass=50 kg; velocity=10.4 m/s
Momentum=50*10.4
P=520 kg (m/s)
The elephant has more momentum(P) because it is large.

An electrical kettle supplies 20,000j of energy to heat 0.5kg of water. What is the temperature change? The specific heat capacity of water is 4200j/kg.

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

The change in temperature is 9.52°CExplanation:Since, the heat supplied by the electric kettle is totally used to increase the temperature of the water.Thus, from the law of conservation of energy can be stated as:Heat Supplied by Electric Kettle = Heat Absorbed by WaterHeat Supplied by Electric Kettle = m C ΔTwhere,Heat Supplied by Electric Kettle = 20,000 JMass of water = m = 0.5 kgSpecific Heat Capacity of Water = C = 4200 J/kg.°CChange in Temperature of Water = ΔTTherefore,20,000 J = (0.5 kg)(4200 J/kg.°C) ΔTΔT = 20,000 J/(2100 J/°C)ΔT = 9.52°C

Jordan lifts a 100-kilogram barbell from the floor to a height of 2.0 meters in 1.5 seconds. The amount of power he generates is about ____ watts.

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

Weight of barbell (m) = 100 kg
Uplifted to height (h) = 2m
Time taken= 1.5 s
Work done by Jordan = potential energy stored in barbell = mgh
= 100×2×9.8
= 1960J
Power = energy/time
= 1960/1.5
1306.67watts

Jasmine, who weighs 400 newtons, moves up a 5.0-meter climbing wall in 15 seconds. The amount of power generated by Jasmine as she climbs the wall is about ____ watts.

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

Weight of jasmine (m) = 400 N
Height climbed on wall (h) = 5m
Total time taken in climbing = 5 sec
Work done in climbing the wall = rise in potential energy = mgh
= 400×9.8×51
= 19600J
Power generated by Jasmine = potential energy / time
= 19600/5
= 3920Watts

Klay Thompson and Draymond Green wanted to play a joke on Steph Curry. Klay threw a ballon horizontally at 50 m/s from 150 m high bridge. How far did the ballow go when it landed?

Step-by-step answer

P Answered by PhD

The horizontal and vertical motions of balloons are independent from each other.
Let vertical component of initial velocity U' horizontal component of initial velocity U"
Time of landing (t) is found with the help of vertical motion.
Since vertical component of initial velocity of balloon is zero(U' = 0)
From equation h = U't + 1/2gt^2
h = 1/2gt^2
t = √(2h/g)
t = √( 2×150/9.8)
t = 5.53 sec
Horizontal velocity = 50m/s
Horizontal range of balloon, R = U"t
= 50× 5.53
= 27.65m
So the balloon will go 27.65 metre away from the bridge
