That's the familiar description of a comet.

If I were the amateur astronomer who discovered the new comet, then
according to the tradition of the astronomical community, I would have
the privilege of naming it.  I would call it  Comet AL2006/2016.

Answer:  C. comets.

Explanation:

  • Asteroids are rocky objects majority of which are found in belt between orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Example: Ceres
  • Dwarf planets are similar in composition to planets and are found in Kuiper belt. Pluto is a dwarf planet.
  • A comet has a solid rocky core surrounded by atmosphere of frozen gases. Comets are present in the outskirts of the solar system and orbit the Sun in an elliptical orbit.
  • Moons are are natural satellites revolving about planets. Example: Titan, Phobos and Deimos etc.

Object Z is made of frozen gases that surround a rocky core and it travels in a highly elliptical orbit around the sun.  The characteristics are similar to ones of comets. Thus, object Z closely resembles a comet.

what is the dot product and cross product of of two vectors if the angle is between them is 90 degree?​
DaniilM [7]

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{GIVEN:-}}}}}

  • The angle between the two vectors is 90° .

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{TO\: FIND:-}}}}}

  1. The dot product of two vectors .
  2. The cross product of two vectors .

\sf{\pink{\underline{\underline{\blue{SOLUTION:-}}}}}

⚡ Let \rm{\vec{a}} and \rm{\vec{b}} are the two vectors .

✍️ We have know that,

\orange\bigstar\:\rm{\pink{\boxed{\green{\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\cos{\theta}\:}}}}

Where,

  • θ = 90°

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\cos{90^{\degree}}\:}

  • cos 90° = <u>0</u>

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\times{0}\:}

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:.\:\vec{b}\:=\:0\:}

\rm{\red{\therefore}} [1] The dot product of two vectors is “ <u>0</u> ” .

✍️ We have know that,

\orange\bigstar\:\rm{\pink{\boxed{\green{\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\sin{\theta}\:}}}}

Where,

  • θ = 90°

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\sin{90^{\degree}}\:}

  • sin 90° = <u>1</u>

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\times{1}\:}

\rm{\implies\:\vec{a}\:\times\:\vec{b}\:=\:ab\:}

\rm{\red{\therefore}} [2] The cross product of two vectors is “ <u>ab</u> ” .

Suppose a firm is producing 2,475 units of output by hiring 50 workers (W = $20 per hour) and 25 units of capital (R = $10 per h
Neko [114]

Answer

given,

firm is producing  = 2,475 units

output by hiring 50 workers W = $20 per hour

25 units of capital R = $10 per hour

marginal product of labor = 40

marginal product of capital = 25

\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c}=\dfrac{40}{25}

\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c}=\dfrac{8}{5}

\dfrac{W}{R}=\dfrac{20}{10}

\dfrac{W}{R}=2

\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c} < \dfrac{W}{R}

Firm is not minimizing the cost because the firm use more capital and less labor.

If a reaction is exothermic, then which of the following statements is always true? If a reaction is exothermic, then which of t
sesenic [268]

Explanation:

Reactants ⇒ product + heat (exothermic reaction) ....(1)

We have given that the reaction is exothermic, so the heat is rejected from the reaction. We know that heat is the form of energy.

From equation (1)

from the given equation we can see that reactants have more energy than products.

So the reactants have higher potential energy in comparison to the products.

A rocket takes off from Earth and starts flying to Mars. What happens to the force of gravity between the rocket and Earth as th
lawyer [7]

The force of gravity between Earth and Mars will decrease.

The gravitational law is given as-

           F = G mM/r²

  here,  m= mass of rocket

             M = mass of earth

             r = distance between earth and rocket

So, as rocket takes off from earth and fly towards mars then the distance starts to increase between earth and rocket, and the gravitational pull between them starts to weaken. Then a point will reach when rocket will far from gravity of earth and could probably enter the gravity of Mars.
