Answer: C. wrist-watch

Explanation:

Alternating current refers to the current which changes direction. The current which is supplied to our home is alternating current which is used to run home appliances such as television, washing machine, electric hair dryer, ceiling fan etc.

A current which flows in only one direction is known as direct current. A cell or a battery is a source of direct current. A wrist watch runs on direct current provided by a cell attached to it.

Sati [7]

The question is missing alternatives. Here is the complete question.

An infrared spectrometer on Dawn found something unexpected on Ceres's surface. Its presence suggested that Ceres might have formed farther from the Sun, or been impacted by objects from a more-distant part of the solar system. What was this finding?

1. The fact that Ceres is covered with small dark particles  that appear identical to the composition of Uranus's rings.

2. The presence of a thick cloud layer made of sulfuric acid, similar to what is observed at Venus.

3. The presence of clay-like minerals with ammonia bound up in them.

4. The infrared spectrum of Ceres's surface is essentially identical to that of most objects in the Kuiper Belt.

Answer: 3. The presence of clay-like minerals with ammonia bound up in them.

Explanation: The discovery of ammonia clay-like minerals in Ceres is surprising because it would be encoutered in planets that are far from the Sun, since ammonia requires colder temperatures, which is found beyond Jupiter's orbit, to condense. This finding can ascertain not only the origins of the dwarf planet as how the solar system was formed, were organized and evolved, because understanding where smaller planets are formed is important to determine their destiny.

A bus and a bicycle have a head-on collision. Compare the force of impact between the bus and the bicycle; compare the accelerat
kati45 [8]

The force of impact is same for both bus and the bicycle. The acceleration of bicycle will be greater than the acceleration of bus.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The interaction that occurs between two objects refers to collision. this makes the two objects to come in contact with each other. The third law of Newton states that, when there occurs a collision between two objects, then the force that is applied on each object will be same. But, the direct in which the force is impacted will be in opposite direction.

The magnitude of the forces will be equal but the direction will not be same. The collision results in gaining the momentum by one object and losing momentum by another. The acceleration is mainly associated with the mass of the object. When the object has smaller mass, it will be accelerated more. In the given example, as bus is heavier than bicycle, the bicycle will have greater acceleration than the bus.

anyanavicka [17]

To find the mass of the planet we will apply the relationship of the given circumference of the planet with the given data and thus find the radius of the planet. From the kinematic equations of motion we will find the gravitational acceleration of the planet, and under the description of this value by Newton's laws the mass of the planet, that is,

The circumference of the planet is,

\phi = 25.1m

Under the mathematical value the radius would be

\phi = 2\pi r

r = \frac{25}{2\pi}

r = 3.9788km

Using second equation of motion

x = \frac{1}{2} at^2

Replacing the values given,

1.4 = \frac{1}{2} a (29.2)^2

Rearranging and solving for 'a' we have,

a = 0.003283m/s^2

Using the value of acceleration due to gravity from Newton's law we have that

a = \frac{GM}{r^2}

Here,

r = Radius of the planet

G = Gravitational Universal constant

M = Mass of the Planet

\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})*M}{(3.9788*10^3)^2} = 0.003283

M = 7.79201*10^{14}kg

Therefore the mass of this planet is 7.79201*10^{14}kg
