Observing neutrinos from the Sun is an important way to check the fusion rate, but it can be very tough to build a machine that

can detect these particles. What trouble did the most recent experiment, Borexino, have to overcome

Vika [28.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The trouble that the most recent experiment, Borexino, have to overcome was that

neutrinos hardly interact with matter and so radioactive decay of ant material inside the detector could look exactly like a neutrino interaction too

Sally and Sam are in a spaceship that comes to within 16,000 km of the asteroid Ceres. Determine the force Sally experiences, in
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

  0.017 N

Explanation:

The relevant relation is ...

  F = GMm/r²

where G is the universal gravitational constant, 6.67408 × 10^-11 m^3·kg^-1·s^-2, M and m are the masses of the objects, and r is the distance between them.

__

Filling in the given numbers, we find the force to be ...

  F = (6.67408 × 10^-11 m^3·kg^-1·s^-2)(8.7 × 10^20 kg)(77 kg)/(1.6 × 10^7 m)^2

where m in this expression is the unit "meters".

  F = 6.67408 · 8.7 · 77/2.56 × 10^(-11 +20 -2·7) N ≈ 0.017 N

The asteroid exerts a force of about 0.017 N on Sally.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

That's about 0.000023 times the force of Earth's gravity.

As a planet's semimajor axis gets smaller, its speed will _______ and its period will _________ .
Rufina [12.5K]
Well first of all, a planet doesn't have a semimajor axis, although it's orbit does.

In an orbit with a smaller semimajor axis, the planet moves faster, and its orbital period is shorter.

That's why the International Space Station circles the Earth in less time than the Moon does.

Jupiter contains a number of small moons that are thought to be captured comets or material ejected by collisions with larger ob
-Dominant- [34]

I believe the evidence for this theory is that:

The orbits surrounding Jupiter are highly elliptical which are off the plane of the ecliptic, and many of these moons are retrograde. This is very unlikely for moons or satellites which are formed during the planetary accretion. Hence comes the theory.

State the law of conservation of momentum<br>​
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Law of conservation of momentum states that. For two or more bodies in an isolated system acting upon each other, their total momentum remains constant unless an external force is applied. Therefore, momentum can neither be created nor destroyed.

What is the sound intensity level in a car when the sound intensity is 0.525 μW/m2 ? Use I0 = 1.00×10−12 W/m2 for the reference
never [62]

Answer:

The sound intensity level in the car is 57.2 dB.

Explanation:

Sound intensity level in decibels, β = 10 log (I/I₀); where I = 0.525 × 10⁻⁶ W/m², I₀ = 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

β (dB) = 10 log ((0.525 × 10⁻⁶)/(1.0 × 10⁻¹²)) = 10 × 5.72 = 57.2 dB

Hope this Helps!!!
