Answer:

Option B. The planet is a very way from the center or the Sun.

Explanation:

If the surface temperature of the newly formed planet is - 20 K that means the distance of the planet from the sun in greater.

If we look at the temperature trends of the planets in our solar system, the planets closer to the sun like  Mercury, Venus have very high surface temperature but as we move move away from the the center of the solar system, i.e., Sun, the temperature goes on decreasing.

Why are there the 3 kinds of AC power?
Roman55 [17]
There are three major kinds of power supplies: unregulated (also called brute force), linear regulated, and switching. The fourth type of power supply circuit called the ripple-regulated, is a hybrid between the “brute force” and “switching” designs, and merits a subsection to itself.

On a spacecraft, two engines are turned on for 684 s at a moment when the velocity of the craft has x and y components of v0x 43
Natasha2012 [34]

As we know by the kinematics

\delta x = v_x * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

4.11106 = 4370* 684 + \frac{1}{2}a_x*684^2

4.11106 = 2989080 + 233928*a_x

a_x = -12.78 m/s^2

Similarly for Y direction

\delta y = v_y * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

6.07106 = 6280* 684 + \frac{1}{2}a_y*684^2

6.07106 = 4295520 + 233928*a_y

a_y = -18.36 m/s^2

PLEASE HELP An object is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 32.1 m/s. What is its velocity in 4.0 s? (use g = 9.81 m/s2).
grigory [225]

Answer:

-7.14

Explanation:

According to equation of motion

v = u + at

where

v is the final velocity at any time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

and t is the time

___________________________________________

Given

An object is thrown upward it means

its initial velocity is in upward direction

but acceleration due to gravity is in downward direction which will cause to decrease the velocity of object.

Intial velocity u = 31.1 m/s

final velocity v at 4 second we have to find.

t = 4 second

a = g = 9.81 m/s2 (it is acting in opposite direction of motion hence its sign will be negative ).

Thus

a = -  9.81 m/s2

using the above values in v = u + at

v = 32.1 - 9.81*4

v = 32.1 - 39.24

v = -7.14

Thus, correct option is -7.14.
