The Oort cloud extends to the gravitational limits of the solar system would comets come from.

<h3>What is oort cloud?</h3>

It is a hypothetical idea of a cloud of mostly frozen planetesimals that would orbit the Sun at distances between 2,000 and 200,000 AU.

The Oort cloud reaches the solar system's outer gravitational boundaries, where comets originate.

Hence cloud extending to the gravitational limits of the solar system will be oorto cloud.

A charged sphere with 1 × 10 8 units of negative charge is brought near a neutral metal rod. The half of the rod closer to the s

jeyben [28]

Answer:

-4*10⁴ units.

Explanation:

As the metal rod was initially neutral (which means that it has the same quantity of positive and negative charges), after being close to the charged sphere, as charge must be conserved, the total charge of the metal rod must still remain to be zero.

So, if due to the influence of the negative charge in the sphere, the half of the road closer to the sphere has a surplus charge of +4*10⁴ units, the charge on the half of the rod farther from the sphere must be the same in magnitude but of the opposite sign, i.e., -4*10⁴ units.

A 5.50 kg sled is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal road. The sled is pulled a distance of 3.20 m by a force of 25.

kiruha [24]

(a) 69.3 J

The work done by the applied force is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where:

F = 25.0 N is the magnitude of the applied force

d = 3.20 m is the displacement of the sled

$\theta=30^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement of the sled

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

$W=(25.0 N)(3.20 m)(cos 30^{\circ})=69.3 J$

(b) 0

The problem says that the surface is frictionless: this means that no friction is acting on the sled, therefore the energy dissipated by friction must be zero.

(c) 69.3 J

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by the applied force is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the sled:

$\Delta K = W$

where

$\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy

W is the work done

Since we already calculated W in part (a):

W = 69.3 J

We therefore know that the change in kinetic energy of the sled is equal to this value:

$\Delta K=69.3 J$

(d) 4.9 m/s

The change in kinetic energy of the sled can be rewritten as:

$\Delta K=K_f - K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2$ (1)

where

Kf is the final kinetic energy

Ki is the initial kinetic energy

m = 5.50 kg is the mass of the sled

u = 0 is the initial speed of the sled

v = ? is the final speed of the sled

We can calculate the variation of kinetic energy of the sled, $\Delta K$ , after it has travelled for d=3 m. Using the work-energy theorem again, we find

$\Delta K= W = Fd cos \theta =(25.0 N)(3.0 m)(cos 30^{\circ})=65.0 J$

And substituting into (1) and re-arrangin the equation, we find

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 \Delta K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(65.0 J)}{5.50 kg}}=4.9 m/s$
