The dwarf planet pluto.

The question literally has the words dwarf planet in it.  Pluto is the only dwarf in the solar system. All you had to do was look up which planet is in front of Pluto.

Answer:

Planet: Neptune

Dwarf Planet: Pluto

Explanation:

Kuiper belt starts just after the orbit of planet Neptune at a distance of around 30 AU (1AU = 150 Million km) and extends up to 50AU from the Sun. This is home to billions of comet as well as lot of rocky bodies. Most famous of them is Pluto, which was earlier designated as a planet. In 2006, when the criteria for declaring a celestial body as a planet were reworked, Pluto was designated as a dwarf Planet.

The comet are thought to have formed at the time of the Solar system formation and resides in Kuiper Belt and Oort's cloud. The comets which reside in Kuiper belt are known as short period or periodic comets.

Which statement is true about an object moving in a circular motion due to centripetal force, F, when the mass is doubled?
marshall27 [118]

Ans) A) Centripetal force will be doubled.

See centripetal force F = mv^2/r

That means centripetal force is directly proportional to the mass of the particle

So, if we double the mass, centripetal force will be increased by twofolds.

So, option A) is correct.

Now, looking at the other options,

B) says centripetal force is unaltered which is incorrect as centripetal force has been altered and increased twofold.

Option C) and D) reduces centripetal force which are also not possible here.

So, only Option A) is correct

As shown in the diagram below, a rope attached to a 500.-kilogram crate is used to exert a force of 45 newtons at an angle of 65
kaheart [24]

Answer:

19.01 N

Explanation:

F = Force being applied to the crate = 45 N

\theta = Angle at which the force is being applied = 65^{\circ}

Horizontal component of force is given by

F_x=F\cos\theta\\\Rightarrow F_x=45\times \cos65^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow F_x=19.01\ \text{N}

The horizontal component of the force acting on the crate is 19.01 N.
