Answer:

C. The car from driving off the road on a curve

Explanation:

A centripetal force actually causes circular motion. This occurs when an object moves in a circular path or a circle,a force will definitely act on it.

For instance, a car travelling in a circular path must definitely experience this force acting on it, even when the car moves at a constant speed. If it does not exist the object will definitely spin off in a direction tangential to the circular path or curve.

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid X and 581 km from the center of asteroid
mariarad [96]

Answer:

0.05806

Explanation:

m_x = Mass of asteroid x

m_y = Mass of asteroid y

r_x = Distance from asteroid x = 140 km

r_y = Distance from asteroid y = 581 km

m = Mass of asteroid

Force of gravity between asteroid x and the astronaut

F_1=\frac{Gm_xm}{r_x^2}\\\Rightarrow F_1=\frac{Gm_xm}{140^2}

Force of gravity between asteroid x and the astronaut

F_2=\frac{Gm_ym}{r_y^2}\\\Rightarrow F_2=\frac{Gm_ym}{581^2}

Here these two forces are equal as they are in equilibrium

\frac{Gm_xm}{140^2}=\frac{Gm_ym}{581^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_x}{140^2}=\frac{m_y}{581^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_x}{m_y}=\frac{140^2}{581^2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_x}{m_y}=0.05806

The ratio of the masses of the asteroid is 0.05806
