If a scale of the solar system was built where 1 mm equaled 1 mile, could the model be practically built in a city?

No, it couldn't be.
On that scale, Neptune would be almost 1,740 MILES from the sun.
ON THAT SCALE !

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Given the relative scale (1mm = 1mile) lets calculate the size of the Sun and distance of planets from the Sun in mm.

Diameter of Sun = 864938 miles = 864938 mm = 864.938 meters

Distance of Earth from the Sun = 92955810 miles = 92955810 mm = 92.955 km = 57.75 miles

Distance of Jupiter from Sun = 480000000 miles = 480000000 mm = 480 km = 298 miles

As can be seen, the magnitude of scaled down distances is too huge to fit inside a city.

It will not be practically possible to make such a model.

A 1.20 kg water balloon will break if it experiences more than 530 N of force. Your 'friend' whips the water balloon toward you
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

t = 0.029s

Explanation:

In order to calculate the interaction time at the moment of catching the ball, you take into account that the force exerted on an object is also given by the change, on time, of its linear momentum:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=m\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}       (1)

m: mass of the water balloon = 1.20kg

Δv: change in the speed of the balloon = v2 - v1

v2: final speed = 0m/s (the balloon stops in my hands)

v1: initial speed = 13.0m/s

Δt: interaction time = ?

The water balloon brakes if the force is more than 530N. You solve the equation (1) for Δt and replace the values of the other parameters:

|F|=|530N|= |m\frac{v_2-v_1}{\Delta t}|\\\\|530N|=| (1.20kg)\frac{0m/s-13.0m/s}{\Delta t}|\\\\\Delta t=0.029s

The interaction time to avoid that the water balloon breaks is 0.029s

Why would we expect protogalactic clouds with relatively high density to form an elliptical galaxy rather than a spiral galaxy?
Svetlanka [38]

The higher density allows the protogalactic clouds to cool faster and form an elliptical galaxy rather than a spiral galaxy.

In physical cosmology, a protogalaxy or protogalactic cloud , which could also be called a "primeval galaxy", is a cloud of gas which is forming into a galaxy. It is believed that the rate of star formation during this period of galactic evolution will determine whether a galaxy is a spiral or elliptical galaxy; a slower star formation tends to produce a spiral galaxy. The smaller clumps of gas in a protogalaxy form into stars.

Composition

Since there had been no previous star formation to create other elements, protogalaxies would have been made up almost entirely of hydrogen and helium. The hydrogen would bond to form H2 molecules, with some exceptions. This would change as star formation began and produced more elements through the process of nuclear fusion.

Mechanics

Once a protogalaxy begins to form, all particles bound by its gravity begin to free fall towards it. The time taken for this free-fall to conclude can be approximated using the free-fall equations. Most galaxies have completed this free-fall stage to become stable elliptical or disk galaxies, the disks taking longer to fully form. The formation of galaxy clusters takes much longer and is still in progress now.

This stage is also where galaxies acquire most of their angular momentum. A protogalaxy acquires this due to gravitational influence from neighbouring dense clumps in the early universe, and the further the gas is away from the centre, the more spin it gets.

If a student flicks a stationary 0.1 kg ball with 5N of force for 0.1 seconds. What is its final
Alisiya [41]

5m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball = 0.1kg

Force on the ball = 5N

time taken = 0.1s

Unknown:

final speed of the ball = ?

Solution:

According to newton's second law "the net force on a body is the product of its mass and acceleration".

  Force = mass x acceleration      equation 1

Acceleration =

  V is the final velocity

  U is the initial velocity

  T is the time taken

 U = O since it is a stationary body;

      a = \frac{V}{T}

Input "a" into equation 1

  F = m x \frac{V}{T}

 5 = 0.1 x \frac{V}{0.1}

 V = 5m/s
