Question

Help fast please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

D. a ballerina standing on one foot

Answer 1

B. a leaf blowing across the field | Would be the correct answer. ^.^

Answer 2

first of all oly 1 person answered directly second it's b

Answer 3

So is it B?

Answer 4

What do you think?

Answer 5

i don't know its a review so i just need help

Answer 6

you must be able to see that

spinning is not translation
standing cars and ballerinas aren't moving.

Put a little thought into it!

Then, by all means, REVIEW your materials to find the answer.

Answer 8

its ok dear leaf no worries

Answer 9

my teacher said to guess if we didn't know because we would do a through review tomarow but i figured i could get some help

Thanks DEBBIE

Answer 10

Motion along a straight line, such as an axis, In this case,its the general movement of any object without the rotational component. In inertial translational motion without rotation the object always keeps the same inertial attitude. Rotation and translation together provide 6 degrees of freedom and in the space business are often treated as a 6-vector. As an example NASA refers to translational and attitude control of a spacecraft. These are often monitored and controlled independently of each other because translation, and its associated measured quantities such as velocity change, primarily affect orbital dynamics and operations like rendezvous and docking, while rotation primarily affects operations such as sighting, aiming of translational thrusters, etc. I can't give you the EXACT answer cause that wouldn't be helpful. That would be cheating. I hope this helped!
