On the earth, when an astronaut throws a 0.250-kg stone vertically upward, it returns to his hand a time T later. On planet X he

finds that, under the same circumstances, the stone returns to his hand in 2T. In both cases, he throws the stone with the same initial velocity and it feels negligible air resistance. The acceleration due to gravity on planet X (in terms of g) is _______.a) g/. b) g/4. c) 2g. d) g/2. e) g.

Answer:

correct is d) a ’= g / 2

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the kinematics equations

On earth

      v = v₀ - a t

     a = (v₀- v) / T

On planet X

    v = v₀ - a' t’

    a ’= (v₀-v) / 2T

Let's substitute the land values ​​in plot X

     a’= a / 2

Now let's use Newton's second law

       W = ma

      m g = m a

      a = g

We substitute

      a ’= g / 2

So we see that on planet X the acceleration is half the acceleration of Earth's gravity

what is the transfer of heat energy by direct contact. A . convection b. radiation c. thermal or heat and d. conduction ​
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

d. conduction ​

Explanation:

Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

In conclusion, conduction typically involves the transfer of heat energy by direct contact between two or more conductors such as a pot and electric cooker.

What is the principle of potentiometer?​
kupik [55]

Answer:

The principle of a potentiometer is that the potential dropped across a segment of a wire of uniform cross-section carrying a constant current is directly proportional to its length. The potentiometer is a simple device used to measure the electrical potentials (or compare the e.m.f of a cell).
