Answer: The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
Weight = Mass × Acceleration
Let the mass of the space probe be m
Acceleration due to gravity on the earth = g
Weight of the space probe on earth = W
Acceleration due to gravity on the Jupiter = g' = 2.5g
Weight of the space probe on earth = W'
The weight of the space probe on the Jupiter will be 2.5 times the weight of the space probe on earth.
Hence, the correct answer is option C.
Answer:
Right Hand Rule
Explanation:
When a charged particle travels in a magnetic field, it experiences a force whose magnitude is given by:
where
q is the charge of the particle
v is the velocity
B is the magnetic field strength
is the angle between the directions of v and B
The direction of the force can be determined by using the Right Hand Rule, as follows:
- index finger: this should be put in the direction of the velocity
- middle finger: this should be put in the direction of the magnetic field
- thumb: this will give the direction of the force -> however, for a negative charge (as the electron) the direction must be reversed, so it will be opposite.
If an asteroid were to strike land or a shallow body of water, it would eject an enormous amount of dust, ash, and other material into the atmosphere, blocking the radiation from the Sun. This would cause the global temperature to decrease drastically..
As far as I know, elastic distortion (or elastic deformation or temporary distortion) is the case when an object is deformed by virtue of a cause and after the cause is removed, it regains its original shape in a finite amount of time. If it fails to attain its original shape in finite amount of time or takes infinite time it becomes plastic or permanent distortion.
Inelastic materials, simply put, are non elastic materials. They do not show a fixed trend of deformation vs applied force; in fact, they might not deform at all (rigid materials) or the deformation observed is not completely recoverable; on removal of the applied force, the material doesn't return to its original shape, but to a permanent deformed shape. Such materials are called Plastic materials.
A typical material like steel shows all these forms under different conditions of loading (applied force). For extremely low magnitudes of forces, it is practically rigid. Increasing magnitudes of force show a linear elastic response, while further increase show a non-linear, plastic response, till rupture occurs when the material breaks.
"Traditionally, physical science courses are categorized into four areas: physics, chemistry, earth sciences, and space sciences. It is important to understand that the arbitrary divisions of specialized knowledge are integrated into a basic overview of the physical laws that govern our universe." - Cameron University
