Dima020 [189]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Three advantages of Reflecting Telescope over refracting Telescope:

1. there is no chromatic aberration in the Reflecting Telescope being mirror as an objective, while Refracting Telescope can suffer chromatic aberration being using lenses.

2. image of Reflecting Telescope is brighter due to large, polished curved mirrors than Refracting Telescope

3. Reflecting Telescope is compact and portable in size than Refracting Telescope.

Alexxx [7]

Answer: vf1/vf2= 1/ sqrt(2)

Explanation :on the moon no drag force so we have only the  force of gravity. aceleration is g(moon)= 1.62m/s2.the rest is basic kinematics

if the rock travels H to the bottom we can calculate velocity:

vo=0m/s (drops the rock)  , yo=0

vf*vf= vo*vo+2g(y-yo)

when the rock is halfway  y = H/2 so:

vf1*vf1=2*g*H/2 so vf1 = sqrt(gH)

when the rock reach the bottom y=H so:

vf2*vf2=2*g*H so vf2 = sqrt(2gH)

so vf1/vf2= 1/ sqrt(2)

good luck from colombia

oksian1 [2.3K]
<span>First, water evaporates from the ocean to the atmosphere, then... put each step in the correct order.
</span>Second- atmospheric circulation advects the water.
Third- water condensates to form clouds.
Fourth- precipitation falls from clouds to the land.
Fifth- some water stored as snow or ice.
Sixth- water either ±ows along the surface in rivers and lakes or infiltrates the ground.
Seventh- water returns to the ocean.

The moon's surface gravity is one-sixth that of the earth. Calculate the weight on the moon of an object that has a mass of 24 k
ad-work [718]
When we say "<span>The moon's surface gravity is one-sixth that of the earth.",
we mean that the acceleration of gravity on the Moon's surface is 1/6 of
the acceleration of gravity on the Earth's surface.

The acceleration of gravity is (9.8 m/s</span>²) on the Earth's surface, so
<span>it would be (9.8/6 m/s</span>²) on the Moon's surface.
<span>
The weight of any object, right now, is

(object's mass) </span>· (acceleration of gravity where the object is located now) .
<span>
If the object's mass is 24 kg and the object is on the Moon right now,
then its weight is 

(24 kg) </span>· (9.8/6 m/s²)

= (24 · 9.8 / 6) kg-m/s²

= 39.2 Newtons

Explaining How Momentum Can Cause
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The astronaut can throw the hammer in a direction away from the space station. While he is holding the hammer, the total momentum of the astronaut and hammer is 0 kg • m/s. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum after he throws the hammer must still be 0 kg • m/s. In order for momentum to be conserved, the astronaut will have to move in the opposite direction of the hammer, which will be toward the space station.

Scenario 3Starting at rest, a 3 kg ball is dropped from the side of a bridge and strikes the ground below at 35m/s. What is the
Nonamiya [84]

   The ball's gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it falls toward the ground.

<h3>How can the height of a dropped ball be determined?</h3>

    Y = 1/2 g t 2, where y is the height above the ground, g = 9.8 m/s2, and t = 1.3 s, is the formula for problems like these. Any freely falling body with an initial velocity of zero meters per second can use this formula. figuring out how much y is.

   A ball drops from the top of a building and picks up speed as it descends. Its speed is increasing by 10 m/s every second. What we refer to as motion with constant acceleration is, for example, a ball falling due to gravity.

    The ball's parabolic motion causes it to move at a speed of 26.3 m/s right before it strikes the ground, which is faster than its straight downhill motion, which has a speed of 17.1 m/s. Take note of the rising positive y direction in the above graphic.
