Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

Asteroids are the rocky materials that are present abundantly in an orbit between the planet Mars and Jupiter. This is known as the asteroid belt, which is comprised of millions of asteroids that move around the sun. They are of various sizes ranging from a few meters to about hundreds of kilometers, which can cause mass extinction if strikes on the surface of the earth. They move at a speed of about 80,000 km/hr and during this motion, frequent collision takes place and they are considered to be the remnant of the early solar system.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

A woman climbs up a ladder in 1.37 s at 2.20 m/s. How tall is the ladder?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The ladder is 3.014 m tall.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must use the following formula:

v = x/t

where v represents the woman’s velocity, x represents the distance she climbed (the height of the ladder), and t represents the time it took her to move this distance

If we plug in the values we are given for the problem, we get:

v = x/t

2.20 = x/1.37

To solve this equation for x (the height of the ladder), we must multiply both sides by 1.37. If we do this, we get:

x = (2.20 * 1.37)

x = 3.014 m

Therefore, the ladder is 3.014 m tall.

Hope this helps!

For an atom to be neutral the amount of ? and? must be equal
maks197457 [2]

Answer: Well first of all, for an Atom to be neutral, it shall have an equal number of the protons and the neutrons. So given that, the protons are able to be positively charged and since the electrons are negatively charged (Protons and Electrons are completely different from each other) then that means the Algebric are aggregated of charges because it equal to zero. So overall, the 'neutral atom' has to be neutral, and how? Protons must equal the number of electrons or else it wouldn't be considered neutral.

Hopefully this helps you very much!! :-) Have a great daayy!

At its natural resting length, a muscle is close to its optimallength for producing force. As the muscle contracts, the maximumf
lesantik [10]

Answer:

Figure E is the correct representation of the first part of the motion. When in a hanging position from the chin-up bar, the bicep muscles are stretched beyond their normal length already. So at this point they are at the peak of their capacity and you are at rest (this corresponds to the velocity v = 0 at t = 0). On contracting the bicep muscles and pulling your whole body up, you begin to gain speed and v increases. This increase in velocity is exponential. Soon the bicep muscles contract up to 80% their normal length reducing the force they can produce to keep you rising up to zero. The velocity change happens because the body is accelerating and the muscles can still supply a net force to lift you up. The acceleration is present because of this net force. The moment this force reduces to zero, the acceleration too reduces to zero. (From Newton's second law of motion). This reduction in acceleration is responsible for the reduction of the curvature of the v curve in figure E above. The point where the velocity becomes horizontal corresponds to the point where the muscles reach their maximum contraction unit and can supply no more net force and as a result no acceleration. This further results inba constant velocity which is the flat nature of the curve seen in diagram E.

Thank you for reading.

What will the magnitude of the field be if the 10 nc charge is replaced by a 20 nc charge? Assume the system is big enough to co
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Same magnitude of the 10 nc charge cause the electric field is external.

Explanation:

To do a better explanation, let's go and suppose we have an electric field of, 1300 N/C with a 10 nC charge.

As the system we are talking about is really big, and the charge is small, we can assume always if the charge is sitting right in the same point where the electric field is, then, the electric field would not suffer any kind of alteration in it's value. Therefore, no matter what value of the charge is sitting here, the electric field is independent of the charge, so it would not feel any alteration. However, the force that the charge is feeling would be stronger than in the first case.

F = qE

If charge is doubled, then the force would be bigger in the second case than in the first case, but electric field remain the same value.
