Based on Einstein's theory of gravity, if the sun and its mass were to suddenly disappear, earth would stay in its current orbit for a few minutes before taking off into space.

<h3>What would occur to our world if the sun were to suddenly vanish?</h3>

The Earth would be drawn to a new center of gravity if the sun disappeared. Earth's gravity would change, as would that of the rest of the solar system, and Earth would begin to drift into space since there would no longer be a steady source of energy from the sun. It is a foolish dream to think that life could exist without the sun forever. Humans could be able to survive for a while in some sort of base, such as a nuclear-powered dome.

The good news is that there wouldn't be many living things for the radioactive waste to endanger; however, there also probably wouldn't be any liquid water to cool the power system. All photosynthetic species, including plants and algae, would die if just the sun's light persisted.

Two charged particles are a distance of 1.62 m from each other. One of the particles has a charge of 7.10 nc, and the other has
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A. F=107.6nN

B. Repulsive

Explanation:

According to coulombs law, the force between two charges is express as

F=(Kq1q2) /r^2

If the charges are of similar charge the force will be repulsive and if they are dislike charges, force will be attractive.

Note the constant K has a value 9*10^9

Hence for a charge q1=7.10nC=7.10*10^-9, q2=4.42*10^-9 and the distance r=1.62m

If we substitute values we have

F=[(9×10^9) ×(7.10×10^-9) ×(4.42×10^-9)] /(1.62^2)

F=(282.4×10^-9)/2.6244

F=107.6×10^-9N

F=107.6nN

B. Since the charges are both positive, the force is repulsive

Which of the following is NOT true of all the inner planets?
Artist 52 [7]

Hi there! :)

\large\boxed{\text{B. They are called gas giants.}}

In the solar system, we can categorize the planets as such:

Inner planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars

Outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

The Inner planets are the only planets that consist of solid rock. They also do not have rings and have impact craters due to their early formation.

In comparison, all of the outer planets are primarily made up of gaseous material and contain rings.

Therefore, the correct choice is B.

Where is the near point of an normal eye when accidentally wear a contact lens with a power of +2.0 diopters?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The near point of an eye with power of +2 dopters, u' = - 50 cm

Given:

Power of a contact lens, P = +2.0 diopters

Solution:

To calculate the near point, we need to find the focal length of the lens which is given by:

Power, P = \frac{1}{f}

where

f = focal length

Thus

f = \frac{1}{P}

f = \frac{1}{2} = + 0.5 m

The near point of the eye is the point distant such that the image formed at this point can be seen clearly by the eye.

Now, by using lens maker formula:

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{u'}

where

u = object distance = 25 cm = 0.25 m = near point of a normal eye

u' = image distance

Now,

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{0.5} - \frac{1}{0.25}

\frac{1}{u'} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}

Solving the above eqn, we get:

u' = - 0.5 m = - 50 cm
