Answer:

The force exerted on the rock by the eruption is, D. 902.5 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the rock ejected by the volcano, m = 95 kg

The acceleration of the ejected rock, a 9.5 m/s²

The force acting on an object is defined as the product of the mass and its acceleration. It is given by the relation,

                                 F = m x a

                                    = 95 x 9.5

                                    = 902.5 N

Hence, the force exerted on the rock by the eruption is, F = 902.5 N

Weight is influenced by which of the following
nignag [31]

Out of the given options, weight is influenced by mass and gravity

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The object's mass is defined as the quantity of a matter with which the object is formed. It can change its state of matter but the quantity will remain the same. However, the weight is defined as how much force gravity exerts on the object's mass to pull it.

The mass is always same irrespective the location but the weight may vary from one place to the other while talking for the bigger picture. For example, the object's weight may be 60 kg on Earth but when it is measured on the moon, it will be lesser.

The weight of an object generally has nothing doing with the volume and it doesn't depend solely on the gravitational pull. The mass plays a crucial role.

                                  W=F=m \times g

Two Earth satellites, A and B, each of mass m, are to be launched into circular orbits about Earth’s center. Satellite A is to o
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Orbital radius of satellite A , Ra = 6370 + 6370 = 12740 km

Orbital radius of satellite B , Rb = 6370 + 19110 = 25480 km

Orbital potential energy of a satellite = - GMm / r where G is gravitational constant , M is mass of the earth and m is mass of the satellite

Orbital potential energy of a satellite A = - GMm / Ra

Orbital potential energy of a satellite B = - GMm / Rb

PE of satellite B /PE of satellite A

=  Ra / Rb

= 12740 / 25480

= 1 / 2

b ) Kinetic energy of a satellite is half the potential energy with positive value , so ratio of their kinetic energy will also be same

KE of satellite B /KE of satellite A

= 1 / 2

c ) Total energy will be as follows

Total energy = - PE + KE

- P E + PE/2

= - PE /2

Total energy of satellite B / Total energy of A

= 1 / 2

Satellite B will have greater total energy because its negative value is less.

How many protons are in this atom if it has a balanced charge? 0 2 4 6
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

For an atom to have a balanced charged, the number of protons shall be equal to the number of electrons of an atom. proton is the positive part of an atom whereas electrons are the negative part of an atom. Only if the number of protons will be equal to the number of electron, the atom will be able to be neutral.

If the number of electron will be more, then the atom will be negative. If the number of electron will be less, then the atom will be positive.

What type of reaction feels cold to the touch? A. Endothermic, because energy is being released into the surroundings B. Endothe
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

D. Exothermic, because energy is being absorbed from the surroundings

Explanation:

This is true about the Exothemic reaction due to the fact that, the reaction occurs outside the body. During this reaction, the energy being absorbed <em>from the surrounding environment will hit the body surface thereby creating the coldness due to the heat given out from the body  being minimal.</em>
