I think the answer is A because it is gravity that caused the planets to form and start orbiting around the nearest star which is the sun

Answer:

A. I and III only

Explanation:

Gravity is one of the four fundamental forces that exist in nature. The other fundamental quantities are the electromagnetic interaction force, the weak force and the strong force. In a simple way, gravity is the quantity responsible for defining the weight of a body, vertical and downward force that keeps us united to the planet. Gravity is extremely important for life and for the functioning of our planet in the solar system.

Among several moments when gravity was influential, we can mention:

  • In the early stages of solar system formation, a fragment of an interstellar cloud of dust and gas collapsed and began rotating under the influence of gravity.
  • Gravity caused small particles in the rotating solar nebula to stick together and form larger particles. This process repeated itself, forming larger and larger particles that eventually became planets.

Determine the moment of inertia of a 14.8 kg sphere of radius 0.752 m when the axis of rotation is through its center.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

I=3.348Kgm^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass m=14.8kg

Radiusr=0.752m

Generally the equation for inertia is mathematically given by

I=\frac{2}{5}mR^2

I=\frac{2}{5}14.8*(0.752)^2

I=3.348Kgm^2

Michael's house is 5.0 km away from his school. How long would it take him to go ti school, riding a bus, if its velocity is 25
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

12 mins

Explanation:

The distance covered is 5 km, divide this by 25 to get the fraction of an hour it takes. Doing this you get .2, times this by 60 min (1 hour) to get how many mins it takes

A 1000 kg elevator accelerates upward at 1.0 m/s2 for 10 m, starting from rest. a. How much work does gravity do on the elevator
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

a)= 98kJ

b)=108kJ

c) = 10kJ

Explanation:

a. The work that is done by gravity on the elevator is:

Work = force * distance  

= mass * gravity * distance

= 1000 * 9.81 * 10  

= 98,000 J

= 98kJ

b)The net force equation in the cable

T - mg = ma

T = m(g+a)

T = 1000(9.8 + 10)

T = 10800N

The work done by the cable is

W = T × d

= 10800N × 10

= 108000

=108kJ

c) PE at 10m = 1000 * 9.81 * 10 = 98,100 J  

Work done by cable = PE +KE  

108,100 J = KE + 98,100 J  

KE = 10,000 J

= 10kJ

=

Determine whether or not each of the following statement is true. If a statement is true, prove it. If the statement is false, p
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This is a representation of Gauss law.

Gauss’s law does hold for moving charges, and in this respect Gauss’s law is more general than Coulomb’s law. In words, Gauss’s law states that: The net outward normal electric flux through any closed surface is proportional to the total electric charge enclosed within that closed surface. The law can be expressed mathematically using vector calculus in integral form and differential form, both are equivalent since they are related by the divergence theorem, also called Gauss’s theorem.

Which choice correctly describes what happens during heating?
Masja [62]

Answer:

Option 4

Explanation:

During heating actually heat transfer takes place from a body at higher temperature to a body at lower temperature and the heat transfer takes place until both attain the same temperature  

Therefore heat transfer depends on the temperature of the systems

Now while comparing the thermal energies of the systems, if both the systems have same mass then the system which is at higher temperature has greater thermal energy when compared to the system which is at lower temperature

So in this case assuming that both the systems have same mass then the energy will leave the system with greater thermal energy and go into the system with less thermal energy as the system with greater thermal energy in this case will be at higher temperature and we are considering this assumption because thermal energy not only depends on temperature but also depends on mass of the system
