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

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.

ladessa [460]

Answer:

A) - 1.8 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that whole system is initially at rest and there is no external force on this system

So total momentum of the system must be conserved

so we will have

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = 0

now plug in all data into above equation

5(v) + 3(3)

5v = -9

v = -1.8 m/s

so correct answer is

A) - 1.8 m/s

Two marbles, one twice as heavy as the other, are dropped to the ground from the roof of a building. Just before hitting the gro
Andreyy89

Answer:

 B. twice as much kinetic energy

Explanation:

Lets take the mass of the first marble =2 m

the mass of the second marble = m

We know that velocity of particle does not depends on their mass that is the velocity of both mass will be same after dropping from the roof.

We know that kinetic energy of a mass is given as

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}Mv^2

Kinetic energy for heavier mass

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2m\times V^2

Kinetic energy for light mass

KE'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times V^2

KE=2 KE '

Form above two equation we can say that ,the kinetic energy for the heavier mass is twice the lighter mass.

Therefore the answer will be B.

Answer:

Period is 86811.5 seconds.

Explanation:

{ \boxed{ \bf{T {}^{2} =  (\frac{4 {\pi}^{2} }{GM}) {r}^{3}   }}}

{ \tt{T {}^{2}  =  \frac{4 {(3.14)}^{2} }{(6.6 \times  {10}^{ - 11} ) \times (5.98 \times  {10}^{24} )} \times  {((35880\times  {10}^{3}) } + (6370 \times  {10}^{3} )) {}^{3}   }} \\  \\ { \tt{T {}^{2}  =  7.54 \times {10}^{9} }} \\ { \tt{T =  \sqrt{7.54 \times  {10}^{9} } }} \\ { \tt{T = 86811.5 \: seconds}}

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

661.25, I believe!

Explanation:

KE = (1/2)(2.5)(23)^2

KE=(1.25)(529)

KE= 661.25
