Option D is right that is asteroids and meteroids.

Answer: d. asteroids and meteoroids

Explanation:

A comet is made of rocks and frozen gases and is found in the outskirts of the solar system. A dwarf planet is large in size and round in shape as compared to an asteroid and has rocky composition.

Asteroids and meteoroids are rocky in composition and have irregular shape and size. Majority of the asteroids are found in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. These are thought to form from an unformed planet. Meteoroids are debris of planets and comets. Thus, it is difficult to distinguish between the two because of the similar materials.

A student gives a 5.0 kg box a brief push causing the box to move with an initial speed of 8.0 m/s along a rough surface. The bo
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The time taken to stop the box equals 1.33 seconds.

Explanation:

Since frictional force always acts opposite to the motion of the box we can find the acceleration that the force produces using newton's second law of motion as shown below:

F=mass\times acceleration\\\\\therefore acceleration=\frac{Force}{mass}

Given mass of box = 5.0 kg

Frictional force = 30 N

thus

acceleration=\frac{30}{5}=6m/s^{2}

Now to find the time that the box requires to stop can be calculated by first equation of kinematics

The box will stop when it's final velocity becomes zero

v=u+at\\\\0=8-6\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{8}{6}=4/3seconds

Here acceleration is taken as negative since it opposes the motion of the box since frictional force always opposes motion.

In Thomson’s experiment, why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate?
Svetllana [295]

The glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because they were negatively charged

<h3>What are the nature of charges?</h3>

The nature of charges refers to the properties of charges.

There are two types of charges:

  • negative charges
  • positive charges

The law of electricity states that opposite charges attract whereas like charges repel.

Therefor, in Thomson’s experiment, the glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because they were negatively charged

In conclusion, like charges repel while opposite charges attract.

A round object of mass 10 kg and radius 0.5 m rolls without slipping down a hill from a height of 4.5 m. If its speed at the bot
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

moment of inertia is 2.72 kg m²

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 10kg

height h = 4.5 m

radius r  = 0.5 m

speed  v = 6.5 m/s

to find out

moment of inertia

solution

we apply here conservation of energy

that is

mgh = 1/2 ×mv² + 1/2 × Iω²

here I is moment of inertia we find and

we know ω = Velocity / radius = 6.5 / 0.5 = 13

and g = 9.8

so put here all these value

10 (9.8) 4.5 = 1/2 ×(10)(6.5)² + 1/2 × I(13)²

441 = 211.25 + 1/2 × I( 169 )

I = 2.72

so moment of inertia is 2.72 kg m²

a body initially at rest, starts moving with a constant acceleration of 2ms-2 .calculate the velocity acquired and the distance
Marta_Voda [28]

a) 10 m/s

b) 25 m

Explanation:

a)

The body is moving with a constant acceleration, therefore we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the body in this problem:

u = 0 (the body starts from rest)

a=2 m/s^2 is the acceleration

t = 5 s is the time

So, the final velocity is

v=0+(2)(5)=10 m/s

b)

In this second part, we want to calculate the distance travelled by the body.

We can do it by using another suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance travelled

Here we have

u = 0 (the body starts from rest)

a=2 m/s^2 is the acceleration

v = 10 m/s is the final velocity

Solving for s,

s=\frac{10^2-0^2}{2(2)}=25 m
