Due to the Composition, different asteroids reflect different percentages of the light falling on them.

What are Asteroids:

  • Asteroids are small, rocky objects that orbit the Sun. Although asteroids orbit the Sun like planets, they are much smaller than planets.
  • Asteroids are generally made up of rocky material, metals and their size are large in  comparison to comets. Asteroid belt is found between Jupiter and Mars.

Composition of Asteroids:

  • Most of the asteroids in the Main Belt are made of rock and stone.
  • The remaining asteroids are made up of a mix of these, along with carbon-rich materials. Some of the more distant asteroids tend to contain more ices.

We determine reflectivity of asteroids by comparing the brightness of light in the visible spectrum to the brightness of light in the infrared spectrum. The light shining from asteroids is reflected sunlight.

Hence we can say that,

Due to the Composition, different asteroids reflect different percentages of the light falling on them.

Sam, whose mass is 75 kg , takes off across level snow on his jet-powered skis. The skis have a thrust of 160 N and a coefficien
Volgvan

Answer:

top speed = 17.25

Total height = 281.19 m

Explanation:

given data

mass = 75 kg

thrust = 160 N

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.1

solution

we get here frictional force acting that is

frictional force = \mu *m*g   .............1

frictional force = 0.1 × 75 × 9.8

frictional force = 73.5 N

and

Net force acting will be F = 160 - 73.5  N

F = 86.5 N

so

Acceleration in the First 15 second  will be

F = ma .........2

86.5 = 75 × a

a = 1.15 m/s²

and

now After 15 second the velocity will be  as

v = u + at   ..........3

here u is 0

so v will be

V = 1.15 × 15

v = 17.25

and

now we get travels distance S  in 15 s

s = u × t + 0.5 × a × t²  

here u is 0

so distance s will be

s = 0.5 × a × t²  

s = 0.5 ×  1.15 × 15²  

s = 129.37 m

and

now  acceleration acting is

F =  \mu *m*g  

m a =  \mu *m*g

a = \mu* g

a = - 0.98

here it is negative it mean downward nature of acceleration

and

now we get distance s by this formula

V² - u² = 2 a s    

here v velocity is 0  and

u initial velocity is 17.25 m/s

put here value

0 - 17.25² = 2 × (-0.98) × s    

solve it we get

s = 151.82 m

so

Total height is

Total height = 129.37 m + 151.82 m

Total height = 281.19 m

Is it using energy when someone stands against a locker that doesn’t move
soldi70 [24.7K]

When someone stands against a locker and is does not moving at all, then there will be no displacement and since displacement = 0

Work done also becomes equal to zero.

Work done is usually defined as change in energy. Since the work done is zero there has been no energy used.
