Answer:

Solar flare

Explanation:

In the Sun when there is an sudden increase in brightness which is generally accompanied by a coronal mass ejection it is known as a solar flare. Solar flares occur close to Sun spot.

Coronal mass ejection is the release of matter (plasma) with a strong magnetic field from the corona of the Sun.

The energy they release ranges between 10^{20}-10^{25}\ Joules which is comparable to 100-megaton hydrogen bombs exploding simultaneously

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

USING LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY

Explanation:

As we know that energy can not be created nor be destroyed.The pendulum cannot continue moving on its own because it meets energy losses due to friction.Its energy is converted into heat energy which dissipates in the air

Suppose we have two planets with the same mass, but the radius of the second one is twice the size of the first one. How does th
bogdanovich [222]

The free-fall acceleration on the second planet is one-fourth the value of the first planet.

Calculation:

Consider the mass of planet A to be, M

               the mass of planet B to be, Mₓ = M

               the radius of planet A to be, R₁

               the radius of planet B to be, R₂

The acceleration due to gravity on planet A's surface is given as:

g = GM/R₁²      - (1)

Similarly, the acceleration due to gravity on planet B's surface is given as:

g' = GM/R₂²                           [where, R₂ = 2R₁]

   = GM/4R₁²    -(2)

From equation 1 & 2, we get:

g/g' = GM/R₁² ÷ GM/4R₁²

g/g' = 4/1

Thus we get,

g' = 1/4 g

Therefore, the free-fall acceleration on the second planet is one-fourth the value of the first planet.

Explain why the rocket can move at constant speed in outer space.
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

When the rocket's engines are fired up, the force of gravity is disturbed, and the rocket takes off in the air. Later, as the rocket's fuel runs out, it slows down, comes to a halt, and eventually plummets to Earth's surface. Forces can affect objects in space as well. Spaceships are constantly in motion while traversing the solar system.
