<span>The correct answer is C:Waves transfer energy, but not matter. A wave does not move matter in the direction of its propagation. It only transfers energy just like the ocean wave traveling many miles away with the water just moving up and down.</span>

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km fr
mestny [16]

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km from its center. The black hole is 5.00 times the mass of the sun and has a Schwarzschild radius of 15.0 km. The astronaut is positioned inside the spaceship such that one of her 0.030 kg ears is 6.0 cm farther from the black hole than the center of mass of the spacecraft and the other ear is 6.0 cm closer.

What is the tension between her ears?

Would the astronaut find it difficult to keep from being torn apart by the gravitational forces?

Answer:

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.

Explanation:

Given that:

Orbital radius of the spacecraft (R) = 120 Km = 120 × 10³ m

Mass of the black hole (m) = 5 \ * (M \ _{sun})

where : M_{sun} = 1.99*10^{33} \ kg

Then; we have:

 m = 5*(1.99*10^{30} \ kg ) \\ = 9.95*10^{30} kg

Schwarzchild radius of the black hole

r - 15.0 km

Mass of each ear m_{ear} = 0.030 \ kg

Farther distance between one ear and the black hole (d) = 6.0 cm

= 0.06 m

Closer distance between the other ear and the black home is (d) 6.0 cm

= 0.6 cm

NOW, If we assume that the tension force should be T; then definitely the two ears will posses the same angular velocity .

The net force on the ear closer to the black hole will be:

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)}- T = m_{ear} (R -  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R-d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (1)

The net force on the ear farther to the black hole is :

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)}- T = m_{ear} (R +  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R+d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (2)

Equating equation (1) and (2) & therefore making (T) the subject of the formula; we have:

T = \frac{3GMm_{ear}d}{R^3}

T = \frac{3(6.67*10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(1.95*10^{30}kg)(0.03kg)(0.06m)}{(120*10^3m)^3}

T = 2073.9 N\\T = 2.07 KN

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.

Which of the following terms is best described as the number of waves that pass a point in one second? A) wave speed B) period C
ehidna [41]

The term that best describes how many waves that pass? It's frequency because how many waves are passed by a given point or time is called the waves frequency. I hope this helped you out on your assignment.
