Most comets come from an area called the oort cloud true or false

2 answers:

8 0

The statement is constructed with the purest form of veracity, and
it is True in every respect, every jot and tittle, ever 'p' and 'q'.
Truer words are rarely if ever spoken. Verily and forsooth,
Most comets indeed come from a dark, distant, foreboding
place in the solar system, unknown until very recently, and
now referred to as the "Oört Cloud".

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Oort cloud is an icy region. It is named after a Dutch Astronomer who discovered it, theoretically. It is a spherical region that stretches far beyond Pluto, in our Solar system.

The region over which it stretches beyond the Sun is estimated to be about one and half light years and more. Temperatures are between 0 C to 4 C, in that region. Comets, ice chunks planetesimals are all a part of that region. These exist in huge numbers.

If the opening to the harbor acts just like a single-slit which diffracts the ocean waves entering it, what is the largest angle

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The angle that the wave would be $\theta = sin ^{-1}\frac{2 \lambda}{D}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that the opening to the harbor acts just like a single-slit so a boat in the harbor that at angle equal to the second diffraction minimum would be safe and the on at angle greater than the diffraction first minimum would be slightly affected

The minimum is as a result of destructive interference

And for single-slit this is mathematically represented as

$D sin \ \theta =m \lambda$

where D is the slit with

$\theta$ is the angle relative to the original direction of the wave

m is the order of the minimum j

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

Now since in the question we are told to obtain the largest angle at which the boat would be safe

And the both is safe at the angle equal to the second minimum then

The the angle is evaluated as

$\theta = sin ^{-1}[\frac{m\lambda}{D} ]$

Since for second minimum m= 2

The equation becomes

$\theta = \frac{2 \lambda}{D}$

A stone is thrown with an initial speed of 11.5 m/s at an angle of 50.0 above the horizontal from the top of a 30.0-m-tall build

rewona [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the horizontal displacement of the rock is 7.39 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed = 11.5 m/s

Angle = 50.0

Height = 30.0 m

We need to calculate the horizontal displacement of the rock

Using formula of horizontal component

$v_{x}=u\cos\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{x}=11.5\times\cos50$

$v_{x}=7.39\ m/s$

Hence, The magnitude of the horizontal displacement of the rock is 7.39 m/s.

Why do plants not need digistive system

WINSTONCH [101]

Humans need a digestive system to do cellular respiration, which produces energy used for growth and movement.

Plants do not need one as they make their own energy through photosynthesis. The process produces glucose, which is a form of energy for the plants.
