The answer is False.  Simple machines are divided into three main categories, and not two.  They are Levers, inclined planes and Pulleys. <span>These three simple machines all change force in such a way that it makes it easier for us to move an object. </span>

Orlov [11]

Answer:

R = 5.28  103 km

Explanation:

The definition of density is

              ρ = m / V

              V = m /ρ

Where m is the mass and V the volume of the body

The volume of a sphere is

            V = 4/3 π r³

Let's replace

             4/3 π r³ = m / ρ

             R =∛ ¾ m / ρ π

The mass of the planet is

              M = 5.5 Me

              R = ∛ ¾ 5.5 Me /ρ π

Let's reduce the density to SI units

             ρ = 1.76 g / cm³ (1 kg / 10³ g) (10² cm / 1 m)³

             ρ = 1.76 10³ kg / m³

Let's calculate

               R = ∛ ¾ 5.5 5.97 10²⁴ / (1.76 10³ pi)

               R = ∛ 0.14723 10²¹

               R = 0.528 10⁷ m

               R = 0.528 104 km

               R = 5.28  103 km

A student standing on a stationary skateboard tosses a textbook with a mass of mb = 1.25 kg to a friend standing in front of him
juin [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the student has after throwing the book is 0.0345 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of book =1.25 kg

Combined mass = 112 kg

Velocity of book = 3.61 m/s

Angle = 31°

We need to calculate the magnitude of the velocity of the student has after throwing the book

Using conservation of momentum along horizontal  direction

m_{b}v_{b}\cos\theta= m_{c}v_{c}

v_{s}=\dfrac{m_{b}v_{b}\cos\theta}{m_{c}}

Put the value into the formula

v_{c}=\dfrac{1.25\times3.61\times\cos31}{112}

v_{c}=0.0345\ m/s

Hence, The velocity of the student has after throwing the book is 0.0345 m/s.

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST. Which gas became part of Earth's atmosphere as a result of the evolution of life-forms?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Earth's atmosphere was largely made up of nitrogen and carbon dioxide gases. After photosynthesizing organisms multiplied on Earth's surface and in the oceans, much of the carbon dioxide was replaced with oxygen.

Idk if this helps but plz mark brainliest if it does

It is correct to say that impulse is equal toA) momentum.B) the change in momentum.C) the force multiplied by the distance the f
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

B) the change in momentum.

Explanation:

The impulse is defined as the product between the force applied on an object (F) and the duration of the collision (\Delta t):

J=F \Delta t (1)

We can rewrite the force by using Newton's second law, as the product between mass (m) and acceleration (a):

F=ma

So, (1) becomes

J=ma \Delta t

Now we can also rewrite the acceleration as ratio between the change in velocity and change in time: a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}. If we substitute into the previous equation, we find

J=m\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}\Delta t=m\Delta v

And the quantity m\Delta v is equivalent to the change in momentum, \Delta p.
