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.
The law of conservation tells us that no mass is lost. This is true because when wood burns or turns into ash, some of it is escaped as gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor into air . If we calculate the mass of these atmospheric gases that evolved when the wood turned into ash, we would find that the total mass of all these substances including the ash is equal to the log of wood.
Answer:
i. 15.6 m/s
ii. I = 1.44 KNs
Explanation:
The impulse, I, on a body is the product of force applied on it and the time it acts.
i.e I = F x t
Impulse is sometimes expressed as the change in momentum of a body. It is measured in Ns.
i. mass, m, of the player = 92 kg
initial velocity of the player, u = 9.4 m/s
final velocity of the player, v = 6.2 m/s
Since he bounces back on hitting the pole, then the sign of initial and final velocities are of opposite sign.
So that,
change in velocity of the player = final velocity - initial velocity
= 6.2 - (-9.4)
= 6.2 + 9.4
= 15.6 m/s
change in velocity of the player is 15.6 m/s
ii. Impulse, I = m(v - u)
= 92 x 15.6
= 1435.2
Impulse on the player is 1.44 KNs.
