These days they are exactly identical. All the space shuttles are currently in museums located on the surface of the Earth.

Years ago when the space shuttles were in orbit, the gravity inside a shuttle was about 85% of the gravity on the Earth's surface.

Which theory proposes that the moon was a passing asteroid pulled into orbit by Earth's gravity? impact theory co-formation theo
sergey [27]
Impact theory is the idea that the moon was formed by a collision between the Earth and another body.

The capture theory is the idea that the moon formed somewhere else in the solar system. The theory proposed that the moon was just an asteroid pulled into orbit by the Earth. 


Co-formation is a theory that proposes that the Earth and the moon formed around the same time as each other from a primitive solar nebulae. 

The answer to your question then is CAPTURE THEORY.

maria [59]

If the sound comes from the right side, the waves reach the right ear before the left ear. if the sound comes from the left side, the waves reach the left ear before the right ear. The difference between the phases of waves reaching both ears is detected by the ears and then interpreted by the brain

You are working in a shoe test laboratory measuring the coefficients of friction for running shoes on a variety of surfaces. The
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

0.75

Explanation:

Since the static frictional force is the maximum force applied just before sliding, our frictional force, F is 300 N.

Since F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = normal force = 400 N (which is the downward force applied against the surface).

So, μ = F/N

= 300 N/400 N

= 3/4

= 0.75

So, the  coefficient of static friction μ = 0.75

Suppose a skydiver (mass = 75 kg) is falling toward the Earth. When the skydiver is 100 m above the Earth he is moving at 60 m/s
Andrej [43]

Answer:

  Potential energy = 73.575 kJ

  Kinetic energy = 135kJ

  Total mechanical energy = 208.575 kJ

Explanation:

   The potential energy of a body is given by the expression, PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the body, g is the acceleration due to gravity value and h is the height of the body.

  The kinetic energy of a body is given by KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2, where v is the velocity and m is the mass of body.

  Total mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + Potential energy

  KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2=\frac{1}{2} *75*60^2= 135000J = 135kJ

  PE = mgh = 75*9.81*100 = 73575 J = 73.575 kJ

  Total mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + Potential energy = 135+73.575

                                             = 208.575 kJ

A ball is rolling across the floor at a constant velocity. What is the value of the change in its kinetic energy, ΔEk?
Katyanochek1 [597]

B. When the ball is rolling across the floor at a constant velocity, the change in its kinetic energy is zero.

<h3>What is change in kinetic energy?</h3>

The change in kinetic energy of an object is the dereference between the final kinetic energy and the initial kinetic energy.

ΔK.E = K.Ef - K.Ei

ΔK.E = 0.5m(vf² - vi²)

where;

  • K.Ef is the final kinetic energy
  • K.Ei is the initial kinetic energy
  • vf is final velocity
  • vi is initial velocity

At constant velocity, the initial velocity and final velocity are equal.

ΔK.E = 0.5m(0) = 0

Thus, when the ball is rolling across the floor at a constant velocity, the change in its kinetic energy is zero.
