Answer:

b,c,a.

Explanation:

We know that mass of sun > mass of Earth> mass of mars>mass of mars.  

And Gravitation force F =\frac{GmM}{r^2}

G= gravitational constant

m= mass of lighter body

M= mass of heavier body.

r= distance between them.

Although the mass of earth is greater than that of moon , its distance from the sun is larger hence, gravitational force on moon by sun is greater than that on Earth.

Hence the correct order will be

b,c,a.

Explain, step by step, how to calculate the amount of current (I) that will go through the resistor in this circuit
anygoal [31]

Answer:

0.03 A

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Resistor (R) = 470 Ω

Current (I) =?

From ohm's law, the voltage, current and resistor are related by the following formula:

Voltage = current × resistor

V = IR

With the above formula, we can obtain the current in the circuit as follow:

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Resistor (R) = 470 Ω

Current (I) =?

V = IR

12 = I × 470

Divide both side by 470

I = 12 / 470

I = 0.03 A

Thus, the current in the circuit is 0.03 A

A frictionless spring with a 3-kg mass can be held stretched 0.8 meters beyond its natural length by a force of 40 newtons. If t
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass m = 3 kg

spring constant be k

k x .8 = 40 N

k = 40 / .8 = 50 N /m

angular frequency ω = √ ( k / m )

= √ ( 50 / 3 )

= 4.08 rad /s

Let amplitude of oscillation be A .

1/2 k A² = 1/2 m v²

50 A² = 3 x 1²

A = .245 m = 24.5 cm

For displacement , the equation of SHM is

x = A sinωt

= 24.5 sin4.08 t

x = 24.5 sin4.08 t

Here, angle 4.08 t is in radians .

The radius of earth is 6,370,000 m. Express this measurement in km in scientific notation with the correct number of significant
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

6.37 x 10³ Km

Explanation:

given,

Radius of earth = 6,370,000 m

we know,

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 0.001 Km

6,370,000 m =  6,370,000 x 0.001

                       = 6,370 Km

The number 6,370 has 3 significant figure.

To transform this to an exponential number, it is necessary to move the decimal to the left so there is only one digit in front of the decimal point.

Representing the given number in scientific notation

      = 6.37 x 10³ Km

A sailboat is traveling to the right when a gust of wind causes the boat to accelerate leftward at 2.5​​​​m​​/s2 for 4s. After t
Ber [7]

Answer:

+7.0 m/s

Explanation:

Let's take rightward as positive direction.

So in this problem we have:

a = -2.5 m/s^2 acceleration due to the wind (negative because it is leftward)

t = 4 s time interval

v = -3.0 m/s is the final velocity (negative because it is leftward)

We can use the following equation:

v = u + at

Where u is the initial velocity

We want to find u, so if we rearrange the equation we find:

u = v - at = (-3.0 m/s) - (-2.5 m/s^2)(4 s)=+7.0 m/s

and the positive sign means the initial direction was rightward.
