    How Long Does It Take for Captain Kirk to Fall to the Valley Floor?

    I can't use distance or time because the numbers I got were for 2.7s.

    I should also say that the number I got for what his kinetic energy after falling for 2.7s is not listed either. I just do not have anyone to compare my work with currently.

    How Long Does It Take for Captain Kirk to Fall to the Valley Floor?

    How long would it take... Homework Statement This is a problem that followed a bunch of others so I will post what I got for those as well. Here is the problem: How long would it take Kirk to fall to the valley floor? 5.29s or 3.47s or 11.836s or 2.43s or none of those. I am not getting any...

    Heat Transfer in Copper Masses: 10kg/450K & 8kg/480K

    When heat is transferred by passing vibrations from one atom to another, it is called conduction or radiation? I know it's def. not convection. Thank you

    Heat Transfer in Copper Masses: 10kg/450K & 8kg/480K

    Question 2 The lowest temp. is? 0 degrees C -273 degrees F 0 degrees K 32 degrees K -100 degrees K The internet tells me that 0 degrees celsius is the coldest and that 0 Kelvin is too...

    Heat Transfer in Copper Masses: 10kg/450K & 8kg/480K

    Homework Statement A 10kg copper mass at a temperature of 450 degrees K is pushed up against another copper mass of 8kg at a temperature of 480 degrees k. How will the heat be transferred? I know it won't be transferred from hot to cold.. or would it be? does mass matter and or the material...

    Would a Bird Be Able to Fly on The Moon?

    I have to right now. Thank you for any further help.

    Would a Bird Be Able to Fly on The Moon?

    The choices are violating Newtons 1st, 2'd, or 3rd law or no gravity on the moon or the question is in error. I think the 2'd law because accel=net force/ mass, accel. would be low enough the bird could not fly? I am still thinking.

    Would a Bird Be Able to Fly on The Moon?

    No, the bird would not be able to fly. Violating Newtons second law then?

    Would a Bird Be Able to Fly on The Moon?

    By air.. And there is no wind resistance from what I concluded with in the other problem..

    Would a Bird Be Able to Fly on The Moon?

    Here is another, a feather and a coin are dropped on the moon from the same height which hits sooner? I know I have to take the moon's gravity into account. Is there a formula to solve this? I'd like to think they would drop at the same time because of no wind resistince?
