<span>The normal force is the support force exerted upon an object which is in contact with another stable object. For example, if a book is resting upon a surface, then the surface is exerting an upward force upon the book in order to support the weight of the book. The normal force in itseñf comes from the third law of Newton as a reactive force</span>

Answer:

The total amount of energy that would have been released if the asteroid hit earth = The kinetic energy of the asteroid = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J = 1.29 PetaJoules = 1.29 PJ

1 PJ = 10¹⁵ J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = mv²/2

velocity of the asteroid is given as 7.8 km/s = 7800 m/s

To obtain the mass, we get it from the specific gravity and diameter information given.

Density = specific gravity × 1000 = 3 × 1000 = 3000 kg/m³

But density = mass/volume

So, mass = density × volume.

Taking the informed assumption that the asteroid is a sphere,

Volume = 4πr³/3

Diameter = 30 m, r = D/2 = 15 m

Volume = 4π(15)³/3 = 14137.2 m³

Mass of the asteroid = density × volume = 3000 × 14137.2 = 42411501 kg = 4.24 × 10⁷ kg

Kinetic energy of the asteroid = mv²/2 = (4.24 × 10⁷)(7800²)/2 = 1.29 × 10¹⁵ J

When you drive through deep water, you should dry out your brakes by _____________. pumping your brakes and driving in low gear
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

By Applying pressure to the brakes

Explanation:

Driving cars through deep water that is more than 10cm can make the cars to float. Most modern cars are usually water- tight so they can start to float through water that is about 30cm deep, fast moving water is very powerful so one needs to be very careful when driving.

If the brakes are wet test them by pressing or tapping on them gently.

You can as well dry brakes by driving in low gear and applying pressure to the brakes.

A circuit has a 10 Ω resistor connected to a 1.5 V dry cell. What is the current that can flow in the circuit?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Here is the highly detailed, arcane, complex, technical form of Ohm's Law that is needed in order to answer this question  ===>  I = V / R  .

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

Current = (1.5 V) / (10 Ω)

<em>Current = 0.15 Ampere</em>

4. A high school athlete runs 400 m in 52.20 sec. What is his speed in mph?<br> 14100<br> 1110
Serggg [28]

Answer:

28,800m/p second

Explanation:

Calculate the distance per second so, 400m/50 s= 8m/p second now knowing the speed/hour and knowing an hour has 3,600 seconds,multiply it by 8 then you will get 28,800m/p second, or 28.8km/h

Air resistance is a nonconservative force. It always opposes the motion of an object. An airplane flies from New York to Atlanta
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

c. is negative

Explanation:

When the magnitude of force is multiplied with the force vector's projection along the direction of the vector of displacement which is negative as it is a resistive force we get the work done.

As the wind is acting in opposite direction of the force which is being applied by the plane the work done will be negative. Also, the net work will be the sum of many smaller negative quantities.

Hence, the answer here is negative.
