8 0

Answer:

a. exhibits retrograde motion.

Explanation:

When earth catches up to a slower moving outer planets like for example Saturn and jupitar they seems to show the retrograde motion which is actually an illusion but there exits the real retrograde motion too in some cases. In retrograde motion planets appears to move in the backward direction like from east to west rather then from west to east in the sky.

Grace [21]

Answer:

Energy: Kinetic, Sound, Thermal, gravitational, electric, light and nuclear

Explanation:

This exercise asks to clarify a little some important concepts

* Energy. It is the capable one that has the bodies to carry out a job.

* Kinetic energy. It is the energy due to the movement of objects

* sound energy. It is the energy due to the vibration of the atoms or molecules of the materials, it can be solid, liquid or gaseous

* Thermal energy. It is the energy due to movement of the particles

* Gravitational Energy. It is a configuration energy due to the height of the bodies with respect to a reference point

* Electric power. It is due to the movement of electric charges

* light energy. It is the energy that light carries due to the electric and magnetic fields that form it, it occurs throughout the electromagnetic spectrum

* Nuclear energy. It is the energy stored in the nucleus by the configuration and movement of protons and neutrons.

The rectangular boat shown below has base dimensions 10.0 cm × 8.0 cm. Each cube has a mass of 40 g, and the liquid in the tank
Paladinen [302]

When boat is sunk into the liquid the net buoyancy on the boat is counterbalanced by weight of the boat

So here weight of the boat = Buoyancy force

let say boat is sunk by distance "h"

now we can say

F_b = \rho * V * g

F_b = 1000*0.10 * 0.08 * h * 9.8

now by above force balance equation we can write

m*g = F_b

0.040 * 9.8 = 1000 * 0.10 * 0.08 * h * 9.8

0.040 = 8h

h = 5 * 10^{-3} m

so boat will sunk by total 5 mm distance
