The distance tells us nothing about the mass of the Sun or the mass of the Earth. Any two objects can orbit each other at any distance. It doesn't matter whether they both have small masses. It doesn't matter whether they both have huge masses. And it doesn't matter whether one is Tiny and the other is huge. A meteoroid the size of a grain of sand can orbit the Sun at any distance. Tremendous numbers of them do.

As a person squeezes and applies pressure to the outside of a balloon, air particles inside
mixas84 [53]

The air particle inside the balloon will collide more with each other and the temperature inside the balloon will increase.

As a person squeezed and applies the pressure to the outside of a balloon, the air particle inside the balloon gains energy and collide with each other, the particle of the air also try leave the balloon surface will implies equal pressure on the wall of the balloon, as the pressure outside the balloon increase, the inside pressure will also increase.

An object with mass m = 0.56 kg is attached to a string of length r = 0.72 m and is rotating with an angular velocity ω = 1.155
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The centripetal force is 0.54 N.

Explanation:

mass, m = 0.56 kg

radius, r = 0.72 m

angular speed, w = 1.155 rad/s

The centripetal force is given by

F = m r w^2\\\\F =0.56\times 0.72\times 1.155\times 1.155\\\\F = 0.54 N

How do you know that light travels faster than
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer

How about a thunder storm. I don't know if you live in a city or out in the sticks as I do. Lighting is very obvious and it is not a good idea to be out when experiencing a thunderstorm, especially in an open field. You might be the only thing around that will cause the lightning to be connected to the ground.#  Seconds later, you will hear the thunder which is quite harmless. If you live in the city, observing this is not quite so easy. There are all kinds of buildings around and some of them may block your view.

#The great golfer, Lee Travino, was "hit" by lightening storm twice while playing in tournaments.

Put these components from largest to smallest
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

6, 3, 2, 5, 4, 1

Explanation:

Let's describe them from smallest to largest. In fact the size order is not exact as there are exceptions.

An asteroid is a rocky body which lies in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They are typically quite small object. The largest asteroid Ceres has been reclassified as a dwarf planet.

A moon is typically a rocky body which is in orbit around a planet. Some moons such as our Moon are quite large and are typically bigger than asteroid. Some moons can actually be smaller than some asteroids.

A planet is a nearly spherical body which is in orbit around the Sun. Planets are larger than moons.

A star is what planets orbit around. It is the source of light and heat. Our Sun is a star which is many times bigger than all of the planets.

A solar system is a star and all of its planets, asteroids, comets and other bodies. It is significantly bigger than a star.

A galaxy, such as our Milky Way Galaxy, is a collection of solar systems orbiting around a central core. Most galaxies have a supermassive black hole at their centres.

Galaxies also form clusters which are large scale structures.

The universe is everything. It contains billions of galaxies.

How do you think the liquid density affects the buoyancy of objects placed in the liquid?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

density can be written as:

d = F / V  (weight density) or M / V (mass density)

Since F in the first equation can be written as

B = d V where B is the buoyant force and is proportional to the

weight of the liquid displaced

For a given volume the weight of the liquid displaced is proportional to the density and hence the buoyant force
