A1200 kg cannon fires a 100.0 kg cannonball at 52 m/s. what is the recoil velocity of the cannon? assume that frictional forces are negligible and the cannon is fired horizontally. a) 4.3 m/s b) 5.2 m/s c) 52 m/s d) 4.7 m/s

Comedians like to joke that the reason we haven’t been visited by intelligent life from elsewhere in the universe is that aliens have been monitoring earth’s broadcasts of intellectually embarrassing tv programs, like gilligan’s island, fear factor, the jersey shore, and the jerry springer showand so consider us far too primitive to merit a visit. let’s check the assertion that aliens could have been receiving them. tv programs are broadcast at a frequency of about 100mhz with about 100kw of total power in 30frames per second, which emanatesroughly uniformly in all directions. assume that interstellar space transmits these broadcasts without attenuation. no matter how smart they are, aliens would require at least one photon per frame to interpret our signals. findthe number of photons per unit time per unit area reaching a receiver on a possible planet in the nearest star system, which is about 4 light-years away (a light-year is the distance light travels in a year). if aliens aimed a receiver or detector directly at earth, how big (in diameter) would it have to be to receive a photon per frame

In which situation has the independent variable for the experiment been changed? check all that apply. changed from counting the number of duckweed at day 0 and day 14 to counting them every day changed from testing duckweed growth in beakers to testing duckweed growth in large outdoor tanks changed from testing the effect of ph on duckweed growth to testing the effect of light levels on duckweed growth changed from testing the effect of acid ph on duckweed growth to testing the effect of basic ph on duckweed growth

The space between two 15-in.-long concentric cylinders is filled with glycerin (viscosity = 8.5 × 10-3 lb·s/ft2). the inner cylinder has a radius of 1 in. and the gap width between cylinders is 0.1 in. determine (a) the torque and (b) the power required to rotate the inner cylinder at 180 rev/min. the outer cylinder is fixed. assume the velocity distribution in the gap to be linear.
