Most comets have short periods and orbit close to the ecliptic plane. (T/F)

Physics
1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Most comets are located outside the solar system, in part of the cloud that originated from dust and gas that has remained virtually untouchable for billions of years. The orbit of these comets can reach the order of a light year. Thus, they are called long-period comets.

A man with a weight of 550 N climbs a ladder to a height of 3.5m. How much work did he do?
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: 1925 joules

Explanation:

weight of man = 550 N

height climbed = 3.5m

Work = ?

Since, work is done when the man pulled his weight over the height; work is expressed as the product of weight and height climbed

i.e Workdone = 550N x 3.5m

= 1925 joules

Thus, the man did a work of 1925 joules while climbing

You have three identical resistors that you can connect in various ways. Which of the following is NOT a possible value of the e
Snezhnost [94]

Answer: option c.

Explanation: 3 identical resistors can only have 3 configurations

1) all 3 resistors in series

2) all 3 resistors in parallel

3) 2 parallel resistors in series with 1 resistor.

Case 1 : all 3 resistors in series

Let us assume each of the resistor has resistance value R.

The total resistor (Rt) of 3 resistors in series is given as

Rt = R1 + R2 + R3

Since R1=R2=R3=R

Rt = R+R+R = 3R.

Case 2: all 3 resistors in parallel.

The equivalent resistance of resistors in parallel is given by the formulae below.

1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

Since R1=R2=R3=R

1/Rt = 1/R + 1/R + 1/R

1/Rt = 1 +1 +1/ R

1/Rt = 3/R

3 * Rt = R

Rt = R/3

Case 3: 2 parallel resistor in series with one

First is to get the equivalent resistance of the 2 parallel resistor.

1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2

But R1=R2=R

1/Rt = 1/R + 1/R

1/Rt = 1 + 1/R

1/Rt = 2/R

2 *Rt = R

Rt =R/2.

R/2 in series with R has an equivalent resistance as shown below

Rt = R/2 + R

Rt = R + 2R/2

Rt = 3R/2

Since all the possible 3 configuration are listed above and there is no other then option c ( 2R/3) is not possible to achieve

How much heat is necessary to change 350 g of ice at -20 degrees Celsius to water at 20 Celsius?
sergejj [24]

Answer:

160790 J

Explanation:

We can find the heat necessary for the ice to go from -20 degrees Celsius to 0 degrees Celsius:

Q=mc\Delta t

Where c=2.09 J/g^{\circ}C is the specific heat of ice, that is the amount of heat that must be supplied per unit mass to raise its temperature in a unit.

Q=(350g)(2.09 J/g^{\circ}C)(0^{\circ}C-(-20^{\circ}C))=14630 J

We must calculate the latent heat of fusion required for this ice mass to change to water:

Q=mH

Where H=334 J/g is the specific latent heat of fusion of water, that is the amount of energy needed per unit mass of a substance at its melting point to change from the solid to the liquid state.

Q=(350g)(334 J/g)=116900 J

Then we calculate the heat necessary for the water to go from 0 degrees Celsius to 20 degrees Celsius:

Q=mc\Delta t

Where c=4.18 J/g^{\circ}C is the specific heat of water, that is the amount of heat that must be supplied per unit mass to raise its temperature in a unit.

Q=(350g)(4.18 J/g^{\circ}C)(20^{\circ}C-0^{\circ}C)=29260 J

Finally the 3 results are added:

Q_{T}=14630 J + 116900 J + 29260 J=160790 J
