Answer:

Explained below:

Explanation:

The major limitation in the use of Photovoltaic cells to generate electricity is its unpredictability about the climate that whether it will be a shining day or a cloudy day and it does not work at night also because of no presence of sunlight as it totally depends on it. It can be used as an alternative but cannot be used as chief source of electricity.

Meteoroids are small objects in space, usually made of rock or metal. These bodies often get close to a planet and fall through
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

1. A burning streak of light, called a Meteor.

2.The rocky bodies that survives the fall to the planet’s surface are Meteorites.

Explanation:

Let us see the difference between them.  

  1. Asteroids: They are the remnants of a broken planet orbiting the sun in between Mars and Saturn.  They are small rocky bodies from a tennis ball size to larger ones weighing a few tones.
  2. Meteoroids: They are the small rocky objects of pebble size formed due to the collision of asteroids.
  3. Meteors: These are pebble size objects that enter Earth's atmosphere and burns off by forming streaks of light.
  4. Meteorites: These are rocky objects bigger than meteors than don't burn out completely and fall on the earth's surface.
  5. Comets:  These are objects mainly made of dust and ice that orbit the sun in a highly elliptical orbit. This composition makes a long tail when approaching the sun.

Two football players run towards each other along a straight path in Penrith Park in the clash between the Melbourne storms and
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

a) v = 0.4799 m / s,  b)  K₀ = 1600.92 J,    K_f = 5.46 J

Explanation:

a) How the two players collide this is a momentum conservation exercise. Let's define a system formed by the two players, so that the forces during the collision are internal and also the system is isolated, so the moment is conserved.

Initial instant. Before the crash

        p₀ = m v₁ + M v₂

where m = 95 kg and his velocity is v₁ = -3.75 m / s, the other player's data is M = 111 kg with velocity v₂ = 4.10 m / s, we have selected the direction of this player as positive

Final moment. After the crash

       p_f = (m + M) v

as the system is isolated, the moment is preserved

       p₀ = p_f

       m v₁ + M v₂ = (m + M) v

       v =\frac{m v_1 + M v_2}{m+M}

let's calculate

        v = \frac{ -95 \ 3.75 \ + 111 \ 4.10}{95+111}

        v = 0.4799 m / s

b) let's find the initial kinetic energy of the system

         K₀ = ½ m v1 ^ 2 + ½ M v2 ^ 2

         K₀ = ½ 95 3.75 ^ 2 + ½ 111 4.10 ^ 2

         K₀ = 1600.92 J

the final kinetic energy

         K_f = ½ (m + M) v ^ 2

         k_f = ½ (95 + 111) 0.4799 ^ 2

         K_f = 5.46 J

mariarad [96]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
<span>View the entire bridge as the system, and find the torque about a pivot chosen to eliminate the torque from one of the unknowns
</span>Find the sum of the torques ∑ τ Q about the right pier Q of the bridge. Remember that counterclockwise torque is positive
∑τQ - 2MgL− 3FpL

<span>The sum of the torques is zero
</span>
FP = 2/3 Mg
