Answer:

7229 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the Death Star and the Millenium Falcon is given by:

$F=G\frac{mM}{R^2}$

where

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

$M=5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg$ is the mass of the Death Star

$m=1.36\cdot 10^6 kg$ is the mass of the Millennium Falcon

$R=\frac{160,000 m}{2}=80,000 m$ is the radius of the Death Star

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find the force

$F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(1.36\cdot 10^6 kg)(5.1\cdot 10^{17} kg)}{(80,000 m)^2}=7229 N$

What is transmitted by all waves

Nesterboy [21]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

Energy

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

A wave is a transmission of disturbance from one point to another. All waves involve transmission of energy from one point called the source to another point.
Waves describes various ways in which energy can be transferred from a point source.
In electromagnetic waves, for instance, energy transmission occurs as a result of vibrations of electric and magnetic fields.
In mechanical waves energy transmission is as a result of vibration of particles in the medium used. For example in sound waves, energy is transferred through vibration of particles of air or particles of a solid or medium through which sound travels through.

Consider the possible scenarios and determine which of them are true for positive feedbacks or negative feedbacks.A. Increased p

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Scenario A, B and E is True.

Explanation:

Scenario A) True. Removing carbon dioxide from atmosphere decreases greenhouse effect of atmosphere. Thus, temperature rise decreases.

Scenario B) True. The more evaporation creates the more greenhouse effect. Therefore, temperature rise increases.

Scenario C) False. Removing carbon dioxide from atmosphere decreases greenhouse effect of atmosphere. Thus, temperature rise decreases.

Scenario D) False. The more evaporation creates the more greenhouse effect. Therefore, temperature rise increases.

Scenario E) True. If reflected radiation increases from Earth, temperature rise of the Earth will decrease. Ice cover increases reflectivity which leads temperature level decrease.

Scenario F) False. If reflected radiation increases from Earth, temperature rise of the Earth will decrease. Ice cover increases reflectivity which leads temperature level decrease.

Compare and contrast the inner and outer planets. (Must be in complete sentences) (At least 5 sentences).

Karolina [17]

To contrast inner and outer planets we will start with the climate of the planets and then move on to there lighting. To start the planets closet to the sun, mercury, venus, earth and mars, are all hot compared to the further one, jupiter, saturn, uranus, neptune. This distance also makes the farthe away planets darker than the ones closer. Now to compare all the planets vary from either gass or solid, rocky or icy. All of them spin around the sun and all have objects spinning around them, moons.
