Answer:

Comets

Explanation:

Comets are planetary celestial bodies consisting of ice and dust, sometimes rocky particles  formed in the region of the solar system. Long-period comets propagate towards the Sun by gravitational perturbations caused by passing stars. Some comets usually hyberbolic comets, move through the inner Solar System  prior to entering the interstellar region. Short period comet lies beyond the orbit of the Neptune.

The Jovian planets include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

Therefore, leftovers of comets (planetesimal bodies) formed in the region of the solar system that are now occupied by the Jovian planets is due to the dusty particles  associated with the comets.

If we have a new moon today, when we will have the next full moon?.
Sav [38]

29.5 days

It takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes for our Moon to complete one full orbit around Earth. This is called the sidereal month, and is measured by our Moon's position relative to distant “fixed” stars. However, it takes our Moon about 29.5 days to complete one cycle of phases (from new Moon to new Moon).

A tank is filled with an ideal gas at 400 K and pressure of 1.00 atm.
bekas [8.4K]

To find the temperature it is necessary to use the expression and concepts related to the ideal gas law.

Mathematically it can be defined as

PV=nRT

Where

P = Pressure

V = Volume

n = Number of moles

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature

When the number of moles and volume is constant then the expression can be written as

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

Or in practical terms for this exercise depending on the final temperature:

T_2 = \frac{P_2T_1}{P_1}

Our values are given as

T_1 = 400K\\P_1 = 1atm\\P_2 = 2atm

Replacing

T_2 = \frac{(2)(400)}{1}\\T_2 = 800K

Therefore the final temperature of the gas is 800K

A police officer is parked by the side of the road, when a speeding car travelling at 50 mi/hrpasses. The police car immediately
Blababa [14]

Answer:

a) time taken to catch up with speeding car is 12.25 secs

b) the police car will travel 273.8 m to catch up with the speeding car

Explanation:

Given that;

speed of car V_{c} = 50 mi/hr = 22.352 m/s

acceleration of police car = 10 mi/hr = 4.47 m/s²

V_{f}  = 70 mi/hr = 31.29 m/s

Now time taken to reach maximum speed is t₁

so

V_{f} =  V_{i} + at₁

we substitute

31.29 = 0 + 4.47t₁

t₁ = 31.29 / 4.47

t₁  = 7 sec

now

d₁ = 0 + 1/2 × at₁²

d₁ = 0 + 1/2 × 0 + 4.47×(7)²

d₁ = 109.5 m

so distance travelled by the speeding car in time t₁  will be

d_{c} = V_{c} × t₁

we substitute

d_{c} = 22.352 × 7

d_{c}  = 156.46 m

now distance between polive car and speeding car

Δd =  d_{c} - d₁

Δd = 156.46 - 109.5

Δd = 46.96 m

time taken to cover Δd will be

t₂ = Δd / ( V_{f} - V_{c} )

t₂ = 46.96 / ( 31.29 - 22.352 )

t₂ = 46.96 / 8.938

t₂ = 5.25 sec

distance travelled by the police in time t₂ will be

d₂ = V_{f} × t₂

d₂ = 31.29 × 5.25

d₂ = 164.3 m

a) How long will it take before the officer catches up to the speeding car;

time taken to catch up with speeding car;

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 7 + 5.25

t = 12.25 secs

Therefore, time taken to catch up with speeding car is 12.25 secs

b)  how far will it have travelled in order to do so;

distance = d₁ + d₂

distance = 109.5 + 164.3

distance = 273.8 m

Therefore, the police car will travel 273.8 m to catch up with the speeding car
