Answer:

D.)it orbits near the Kepler belt

Explanation:

The Kuiper belt is an area similar to the asteroide belt extending from the orbit of Neptune to about 50 AU from the Sun. It mainly consists of icy asteroids and dwarf planets, which are rocky objects big enough to be defined as planet but that do not have enough gravity to clear their orbit from other obejcts.

Pluto was discovered in 1930 - initially it was classified as a planet, although it is much smaller than the other 8 planets of the Solar System. However, it has been recently de-classified to dwarf planet because its gravity is not enough to clear its orbit from other objects (asteroids). Pluto is located inside the Kuiper belt, so option D is correct. Other dwarf planets in the Kuiper belt are for instance Haumea and Makemake.

Answer:

<h2>D.) it orbits near the Kuiper belt.</h2>

Explanation:

You mean the Kuiper Belt, not the Kepler Belt.

The Kuiper Belt refers to the circumstellar disc that is border region of the Solar System, when Pluto it's present. Actually is from the Neptune's orbit to the outer Solar System.

The Kuiper Belt, we can define it as a larger asteroid belt, that contains three dwarf planets: Pluto, Haumea and Makemake. Dwarf planets refers to "planets" that have little mass, but they are not satellites, however they don't domain its region. So, it's like a satellite but we some characteristics of planets.

How high can a body vertically thrown with a speed of 40m/s raise after 3 sec (neglecting air
Tcecarenko [31]

y = 75.9 m

Explanation:

y = -(1/2)gt^2 + v0yt + y0

If we put the origin of our coordinate system at the point where a body is launched, then y0 = 0.

y = -(1/2)(9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)^2 + (40 m/s)(3 s)

= -44.1 m + 120 m

= 75.9

A 45 kg bear slides, from rest, 11 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 5.8 m/s just before hitting the ground.
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

change  in the gravitational potential energy of the bear-Earth system during the slide  = mgh

= 45 x 9.8 x 11

= 4851 J

b )

kinetic energy of bear just before hitting the ground

= 1/2 m v²

= .5 x 45 x 5.8²

= 756.9 J

c ) If  the average frictional force that acts on the sliding bear be F

negative work done by friction

= F x 11 J

then ,

4851 J -  F x 11 =  756.9 J

F x 11 = 4851 J -   756.9 J

= 4094.1 J

F = 4094.1 / 11

= 372.2 N

The noise floor, also known as additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), is a continuous noise level that appears over a wide spectr
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

correct option is a. True

Explanation:

solution

the noise floor is AWGN ( additive white Gaussian noise )  

and when viewed in the frequency domain, it is the continuous noise level  

because as they have a  uniform power over all the frequency.

 

so that it is additive white Gaussian noise  

as we can say given statement is True  

correct option a true

A truck loaded with sand accelerates along a highway. The driving force on the truck remains constant. What happens to the accel
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Acceleration will increase.

Explanation:

The relation between force, mass and acceleration according to the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

F = ma

We are given that the driving force on the truck remains constant, so F is constant here. We can rewrite the above equation as:

a=\frac{F}{m}

Since, F is constant, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass.

There is a hole at the bottom of the truck through which the sand is being lost at a constant rate. Since, the sand is being lost, the overall mass of the truck is being reduced.

Since, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass, the reduced mass will result in an increased acceleration.

So, the acceleration of the truck will increase.
