The connection between gravity and orbits enables astronomers to measure the __________ of stars and planets.

Physics
1 answer:
Kipish [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

mass

Explanation:

astronomers use Newtons gravitational law as a link between gravity and orbits to measure the masses of stars and planets.

Newtons gravitational law states that the gravitational force of attraction between two planets is proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Do you think a population besides the moon jellies’ consumer population (sea turtles) and resource population (zooplankton) coul
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

I didn't quite understand your question, but the moon jelly population will increase if there are either more zooplankton or less sea turtles.

More zooplankton means more food => higher population

Less sea turtles means that the moon jelly will be lest often consumed => higher population

When a person's temperature reaches 104 degrees, the chances of survival are decreased dramatically. Group of answer choices Tru
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

With the increase in temperature hypothalamus fails and heatstroke occurs due to this failure. Hypothalamus is the region of our brain that act as a thermostat. It co-ordinates our physiological response to excessive heat. When the person’s temperature reaches to 104 degrees then it causes heatstroke. This heatstroke is very sudden and can kill person. Hence, we can conclude that when person’s temperature reaches to 104 degrees chances of survival decreases dramatically.

A certain radar installation tracks airplanes by transmitting electromagnetic radiation of wavelength 4.0 cm.
Anna35 [415]

the wavelength equation is

speed (of light in this case)= wavelength (m) x frequency

3x10^8m/s / .07m = f

frequency= 4 285 714 286 hertz

 

 

 

b) Total distance= 4.8 km (4,800 m)

Speed = 3x10^8 m/s

d=st

t= d/s

t= 4,800 m/3x10^8m/s

<span>t= 1x10^-5 seconds</span>

Compare and contrast four types <br> of friction
malfutka [58]
Some of these frictions depend on the Pressure, temperature of atmosphere.

Static Friction: This is the  friction force when two objects in contact  are not moving relative to each other. This friction is higher than kinetic friction.

Kinetic or Dynamic friction: this the friction force opposing the motion of objects, when two objects in contact are in motion relative to each other.  It is less than the static friction. The two surfaces are rubbing against each other as they move.

Rolling friction:  This is the friction when two objects are in contact and one object is rolling over the other - like a wheel on a road. The point of contact appears as stationary. The rolling friction is very less compared to static friction & dynamic friction.

Lubricated friction: this is the friction between two solid surfaces in contact with a layer of lubricant fluid flowing in between them. This friction is the least.

Fluid friction - viscosity :  this is friction between two adjacent layers that are moving relative to each other at different speeds in a fluid.  This is not high.

Internal friction: when an object is compressed and forced to deform, like in a piece of rubber, there is friction between the layers, that opposes this deformation.

Skin friction is the friction that opposes movement of a fluid across a solid surface.  This is also called drag.  When a coin is dropped in water, there is a friction called drag on the coin. Same is the case when a ball is thrown, a drag is experienced by the ball due to the drag of air.

Which describes the average velocity of an ant traveling at a constant speed
yanalaym [24]

Answer: A. The total displacement divided by the time and  C. The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph.

Explanation:

Hi! The question seems incomplete, but I found the options on the internt:

A. The total displacement divided by the time.

B. The slope of the ant's acceleration vs. time graph.

C. The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph.

D. The average acceleration divided by the time.

Now, since we know the ant is travelling at a constant speed, its average velocity V will be expressed by the following equation:

V=\frac{d}{t}

Where:

d is the ant's total displacement

t is the time it took to the ant to travel to the kitchen

Hence one of the correct options is: A. The total displacement divided by the time

On the other hand, this can be expressed by a displacement vs. time graph graph, where the slope of that line leads to the equation written above. So, the other correct option is: C. The slope of the ant's displacement vs. time graph.
