There is a galactic, royal wedding in El Candrea. Maria Isabela, the princess of andalusia prima maxima, is riding a diamond-studded, pink spacetime motorcycle whose maximum speed is 5x10^2 km/s. The religious princess started her speed at about 5x10^1 km/s and she is to supposed to travel 1.78 x 10^4 km at a straight distance in about 60 seconds to reach the wedding before the galactic church closes. The princess accelerated until her max speed was reached. She then maintains the aforementioned speed till she reached the wedding gates. To reach the church before it closes, what should be her minimum constant acceleration? a. 8.30 km/s^2, b. 7.50 km/s^2, c. 5.29 km/s^2, or d. 6.95 km/s^2

1. are the twins still the exact same age? If not which one is the older and by how much ?
Zilean, an omniscient being, witnessed the lives of three creatures namely Ezreal, Lux, and Zoe. Lux has been communicating with Ezreal for a long time through the Internet. One time, Zoe, Lux’s roommate, learned about this. While Lux was sleeping, Zoe used Lux’s laptop to talk to Ezreal. Zoe managed to make Ezreal to meet her (as Lux). Assume a 1-dimensional space problem. Ezreal lived 9 [m] to the right of Lux and Zoe’s dorm room and their meeting place is 2 [m] to the left of Ezreal’s residence. Story time. Ezreal left his house and went to the meeting place at a speed of 0.25. Zoe, at the same time Ezreal left, tried to go to the meeting place but Zoe doesn’t know where to go. First, Zoe walked at a velocity of −0.25 for 4 [m] of time. Then, Zoe used a map and realized she went the other way. Zoe now ran at a speed of 0.8 towards the meeting place. Lux woke up and learned their conversation around 6 [m] of time. In fury, Lux used her special equipment to travel at a speed of light…

- Since 1995, hundreds of extrasolar planets have been discovered. There is the exciting possibility that there is life on one or more of these planets. To support life similar to that on the Earth, the planet must have liquid water. For an Earth-like planet orbiting a star like the Sun, this requirement means that the planet must be within a habitable zone of 0.9 AU to 1.4 AU from the star. The semimajor axis of an extrasolar planet is inferred from its period. What range in periods corresponds to the habitable zone for an Earth-like Planet orbiting a Sun-like star?arrow_forwardTwo twins leave Earth at the same time in two different space ships. Jeremy travels twice as fast as Marnie.

The Vegans' home base is on a planet of the star Vega. As it happens, Vegans are vegans, but still very vicious toward non-Vegan life forms, especially non-vegan ones. The captain of the Lunatik endangers his craft's vital mission by running out of fuel, leaving the Lunatik adrift in space, subject to the gravitational pulls of Eqrgp and its moon. Ignore the gravitational pulls of other bodies. The Lunatik's navigator notices that for a short while the craft does not change its speed or direction. How far from the center of Eqrgp is the Lunatik at that time? The distance between the centers of Eqrgp and its moon is 3.91 x 10 m. The mass of Egrqp is 5.03 x 104 kg and the mass of its moon is 1.35 x 10-3 kg. distance from the center of Eqrgp:arrow_forward
