Answer:

much less than the mass of any terrestrial planet

Explanation:

According to www.wikipidia.com

The mass of all the objects of the asteroid belt, lying between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, is estimated to be about 2.8–3.2×1021 kg, or about 4% of the mass of the Moon. Of this, Ceres comprises 0.95×1021 kg, a third of the total.

While mass of terrestrial planet is

5.97 x 1024 kg (which works out to 5,970,000,000,000 trillion metric tons) Earth is the most massive of all the terrestrial planets (www.universetoday.com)

By doing the calculation, mass of all the asteroid are much less than the mass of any terrestrial planet

Two or more velocities add by ____?<br><br> Plz help
VladimirAG [237]
By vector addition.
In fact, velocity is a vector, with a magnitude intensity, a direction and a verse, so we can't simply do an algebraic sum of the two (or more velocities). 
First we need to decompose each velocity on both x- and y-axis (if we are on a 2D-plane), then we should do the algebraic sum of all the components on the x- axis and of all the components on the y-axis, to find the resultants on x- and y-axis. And finally, the magnitude of the resultant will be given by
R= \sqrt{(R_x)^2+(R_y)^2}
where Rx and Rx are the resultants on x- and y-axis. The direction of the resultant will be given by
\tan \alpha =  \frac{R_y}{R_x}
where \alpha is its direction with respect to the x-axis.

The speed of light inside a medium is (2.0 x 10^8m/s) What is the index of refraction (n) of the medium?
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Refractive index of a medium = Speed of light in vacuum/Speed of light in a medium

1.5 = 3 x 108 / Speed of light in medium

Speed of light in the medium = 3 x 108 /1.5

= 2 x 108 m/s.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

F = 8.23 × 10⁻⁸N

Explanation:

F= kq²/r²

k= 9×10⁹Nm²/C²

q= 1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

r= 5.29×10⁻¹¹m

F= 9×10⁹× (1.6×10⁻¹⁹)²/  (5.29×10⁻¹¹)²

F = 8.23 × 10⁻⁸N
