Answer: The correct answer is option (C).
Explanation:
As it is given in the problem, the path of a meteor passing Earth is affected by its gravitational force and falls to Earth's surface. Another meteor of the same mass falls to Jupiter's surface due to its gravitational force.
According to Newton's law of universal gravitational, every particle attracts every other particles in the universe with the gravitational force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
The Jupiter is the most massive planet in the solar system. It is also the largest planet in the solar system. The gravity of Jupiter on its surface is 2.4 times that of surface gravity of the Earth.
If a person weighs 100 pounds on the Earth then he would weigh 240 pounds on Jupiter.
Therefore, the correct answer is option (C), the meteor falls to Jupiter faster due to its greater gravitational force.
Answer:
Due to suffocation and toxic paint.
Explanation:
The population of hermit crabs has been decreasing because of suffocation and poison. Many crabs actually die slowly from suffocation because their gills require high humidity in order to breathe properly. Hermit crabs are slowly poisoned by tap water in which the toxic substances present in the paint that dissolves their shells that leads to the death of hermit crabs.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
When a satellite is orbiting the earth, the centripetal force is balanced by the gravitational force as :
...........(1)
Where
M is the mass of the earth
m is the mass of the planet
From equation (1), the speed of the satellite depends only on the mass of the earth and the orbital radius.
So, If a payload of material is added until it doubles the satellite's mass, the earth's pull of gravity on this satellite will double but the satellite's orbit will not be affected. It is true.
Decreases the input force
Answer:
576 joules
Explanation:
From the question we are given the following:
weight = 810 N
radius (r) = 1.6 m
horizontal force (F) = 55 N
time (t) = 4 s
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}
K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}
where MI is the moment of inertia and ω is the angular velocity
MI = 0.5 x m x r^2
mass = weight ÷ g = 810 ÷ 9.8 = 82.65 kg
MI = 0.5 x 82.65 x 1.6^{2}
MI = 105.8 kg.m^{2}
angular velocity (ω) = a x t
angular acceleration (a) = torque ÷ MI
where torque = F x r = 55 x 1.6 = 88 N.m
a= 88 ÷ 105.8 = 0.83 rad /s^{2}
therefore
angular velocity (ω) = a x t = 0.83 x 4 = 3.33 rad/s
K.E = 0.5 x MI x ω^{2}
K.E = 0.5 x 105.8 x 3.33^{2} = 576 joules
