Jupiter contains a number of small moons that are thought to be captured comets or material ejected by collisions with larger ob

jects. what is the evidence for this theory?

-Dominant- [34]3 years ago

I believe the evidence for this theory is that:

The orbits surrounding Jupiter are highly elliptical which are off the plane of the ecliptic, and many of these moons are retrograde. This is very unlikely for moons or satellites which are formed during the planetary accretion. Hence comes the theory.

Karla Ayala pulls a sled on an icy road (dangerous!). Because of Karla's pull, the tension force is 151 N, and the rope makes a
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

W = 1418.9 J = 1.418 KJ

Explanation:

In order to find the work done by the pull force applied by Karla, we need to can use the formula of work done. This formula tells us that work done on a body is the product of the distance covered by the object with the component of force applied in the direction of that displacement:

W = F.d

W = Fd Cosθ

where,

W = Work Done = ?

F = Force = 151 N

d = distance covered = 10 m

θ = Angle with horizontal = 20°

Therefore,

W = (151 N)(10 m) Cos 20°

<u>W = 1418.9 J = 1.418 KJ</u>

A force of 19 newtons is applied on a cart of 2 kilograms, and it experiences a frictional force of 1.7 newtons. What is the acc
Umnica [9.8K]
Frictional force always opposes applied force, so the net force on the cart would have to be 19N - 1.7N. The acceleration can then be solved by using the relation: F = ma. This is shown below:

Net force = 19 - 1.7 = 17.3 N

Acceleration = Force / mass
Acceleration = 17.3 / 2
Acceleration = 8.65 N/m

If you swim with the current in a river, your speed is increased by the speed of the water; if you swim against the current, you
Blababa [14]

Answer:

11.23%

Explanation:

Lets take

Speed of man in still water =u= 1.73 m/s

Speed of flow of water = v=0.52 m/s

When swims in downward direction then speed of man = u + v

When swims in upward direction then speed of man = u - v

Lets time taken by man when he swims in downward direction is t_1 and when he swims in downward direction is t_2

Lets distance is d and it will be remain constant in both the case

d=(u+v)t_1

d=(u-v)t_2

(1.73+0.52)t_1=(1.73-0.52)t_2

t_2=1.85t_1

Time taken in still water

2 d= t x 1.73

t=1.15 x d sec

t_1=0.44d\ sec

t_2=0.82d\ sec

total time in current = 0.82 +0.44 d=1.26 d sec

So the percentage time

percentage\ time =\dfrac{1.28-1.15}{1.15}

 Percentage time =11.32%

So it will take 11.32% more time as compare to still current.

A hiker climbs a mountain. Starting at the base of the mountain, he first moved up 520m at a 32.0 degree angle. What is the fina
balu736 [363]

Answer:

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

Explanation:

<u>Displacement Vector</u>

Suppose an object is located at a position  

\displaystyle P_1(x_1,y_1)

and then moves at another position at

\displaystyle P_2(x_2,y_2)

The displacement vector is directed from the first to the second position and can be found as

\displaystyle \vec{d}=

If the position is given as magnitude-angle data ( z , α), we can compute its rectangular components as

\displaystyle x=z\ cos\alpha

\displaystyle y=z\ sin\alpha

The question describes the situation where the initial point is the base of the mountain, where both components are zero

\displaystyle P_1(0,0)

The final point is given as a 520 m distance and a 32-degree angle, so  

\displaystyle x_2=520\ cos32^o= 440.99\ m

\displaystyle y_2=520\ sin32^o=275.6\ m

The displacement is

\displaystyle \vec{d}=
