THE DOPPLER EFFECT. Anyways, it would have a higher whistle as it approaches you, when it gets to you it only gets quieter because it leaves after. Think of a motorcycle going by, its loud coming to you then as it passes it gets quieter.

A small spinning asteroid is in a circular orbit around a star, much like the earth's motion around our sun. The asteroid has a
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Temperature will be 305 K  

Explanation:

We have given The asteroid has a surface area A=7.70m^2

Power absorbed P = 3800 watt

Boltzmann constant \sigma =5.67\times 10^{-8}Wm/K^4

According to Boltzmann rule power radiated is given by

P=\sigma AT^4

3800=5.67\times 10^{-8}\times 7.70\times T^4

T^4=87.0381\times 10^8

T=305K

So temperature will be 305 K

How does the ocean influence climate?
Mazyrski [523]
<span>Ocean currents act much like a conveyer belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth's surface.</span>

An object of mass 300 g, moving with an initial velocity of 5.00i-3.20j m/s, collides with an sticks to an object of mass 400 g,
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

Velocity is 2.17 m/s at an angle of 9.03° above X-axis.

Explanation:

Mass of object 1 , m₁ = 300 g = 0.3 kg

Mass of object 2 , m₂ = 400 g = 0.4 kg

Initial velocity of object 1 , v₁ = 5.00i-3.20j m/s

Initial velocity of object 2 , v₂ = 3.00j m/s

Mass of composite = 0.7 kg

We need to find final velocity of composite.

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Initial momentum = 0.3 x (5.00i-3.20j) + 0.4 x 3.00j = 1.5 i + 0.24 j kgm/s

Final momentum = 0.7 x v = 0.7v kgm/s

Comparing

1.5 i + 0.24 j = 0.7v

v = 2.14 i + 0.34 j

Magnitude of velocity      

       v=\sqrt{2.14^2+0.34^2}=2.17m/s

Direction,  

       \theta =tan^{-1}\left ( \frac{0.34}{2.14}\right )=9.03^0

Velocity is 2.17 m/s at an angle of 9.03° above X-axis.

when an object falls to the ground, only the object moves down but the earth's motion is not noticeable​.why?
vlada-n [284]
Both the object and earth pulls each other towards itself but since the mass and pulling force of objects are very small the pulling force of objects are negligible.
