The temperature of an object is a measure of the average thermal energy of the molecule in the object true or false

What do you observe as you immerse the empty jug in a bucket which contains water? Explain why you observe this phenomenon.

liraira [26]

Answer:

The jug drowns because the density of the jug is more than that of the density of water.

Two planets have the same surface gravity, but planet b has twice the radius of planet

nevsk [136]

The formula for the acceleration due to gravity is:

a = Gm/r²
where
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.6726 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²
m is the mass of planet
r is the radius of planet

So, if they have the same a:

m₁/r₁² = m₂/r₂²
So, if m₁ = m and r₂ = 2r₁,
m/r₁² = m₂/(2r₁)²
m₂ = 4m

<em>Thus, the answer is D.</em>

An uncrewed mission to the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, is launched from the Earth's surface as a projectile with an initial

Anna [14]

Answer:

42.96 km/s

Explanation:

From the conservation of Energy

$(PE+KE)_i=(PE+KE)_f\\\Rightarrow -\frac{GmM}{R}+\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2=0+\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

Mass gets cancelled

$-\frac{GM}{R}+\frac{1}{2}v_i^2=0+\frac{1}{2}v_f^2\\\Rightarrow -2\frac{GM}{R}+v_i^2=v_f^2\\\Rightarrow -v_e^2+v_i^2=v_f^2\\\Rightarrow v_f=\sqrt{v_i^2-v_e^2}$

$v_e=\sqrt{\frac{2Gm}{R}}$ = Escape velocity of Earth = 11.2 km/s

$v_i$ = Velocity of projectile = 44.4 km/s

$v_f=\sqrt{44.4^2-11.2^2}\\\Rightarrow v_f=42.96\ km/s$

The velocity of the spacecraft when it is more than halfway to the star is 42.96 km/s

A 30-cm long string, with one end clamped and the other free to move transversely, is vibrating in its second harmonic. The wave

Ann [662]

Answer:

$\lambda$ = 40 cm

Explanation:

given data

string length = 30 cm

solution

we take here equation of length that is

L = $n \times \frac{1}{4} \lambda$ ...............1

so

total length will be here

$L = \frac{\lambda}{2} + \frac{\lambda}{4}\\$

$L = \frac{3 \lambda }{4}$

so $\lambda$ will be

$\lambda = \frac{4L}{3}\\\lambda = \frac{4\times 30}{3}$

$\lambda$ = 40 cm

What can we say about Gamma waves on<br> the electromagnetic spectrum?

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer: Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions. Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.

Explanation: :)
