Why does the number of dwarf planets recognized by astronomers in the solar system sometimes increase?

1 answer:

4 0

Because sometimes it happens that they discover a dwarf planet
that nobody ever knew about before. When that happens, they
ADD the new one to the list of known dwarf planets, and then the
total number of dwarf planets on the list increases by 1 .

A person is standing on an elevator initially at rest at the first floor of a high building. The elevator then begins to ascend

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The found acceleration in terms of h and t is:

$a=\frac{h}{5(t_1)^2}$

Explanation:

(The complete question is given in the attached picture. We need to find the acceleration in terms of h and t in this question)

We are given 3 stages of movement of elevator. We'll first model them each of the stage one by one to find the height covered in each stage. After that we'll find the total height covered by adding heights covered in each stage, and equate it to Total height h. From that we can find the formula for acceleration.

<h3></h3><h3>Stage 1</h3>

Constant acceleration, starts from rest.

Distance = $y = \frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2$

Velocity = $v_1=at_1$

<h3>Stage 2</h3>

Constant velocity where

Velocity = $v_o=v_1=at_1$

Distance =

<h3> $y_2=v_2(t_2)\\\text{Where~}t_2=4t_1 ~\text{and}~ v_2=v_1=at_1\\y_2=(at_1)(4t_1)\\y_2=4a(t_1)^2\\$ </h3><h3 /><h3>Stage 3</h3>

Constant deceleration where

Velocity = $v_0=v_1=at_1$

Distance =

$y_3=v_1t_3-\frac{1}{2}a(t_3)^2\\\text{Where}~t_3=t_1\\y_3=v_1t_1-\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2\\\text{Where}~ v_1t_1=a(t_1)^2\\y_3=a(t_1)^2-\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2\\\text{Subtracting both terms:}\\y_3=\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2$

<h3>Total Height</h3>

Total height = y₁ + y₂ + y₃

Total height = $\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2+4a(t_1)^2+\frac{1}{2}a(t_1)^2 = 5a(t_1)^2$

<h3 /><h3>Acceleration</h3>

Find acceleration by rearranging the found equation of total height.

Total Height = h

h = 5a(t₁)²

$a=\frac{h}{5(t_1)^2}$

Equal currents of magnitude I travel into the page in wire M and out of the page in wire N. The direction of the magnetic field

mario62 [17]

Answer:

<em>The direction of the magnetic field on point P, equidistant from both wires, and having equal magnitude of current flowing through them will be pointed perpendicularly away from the direction of the wires.</em>

Explanation:

Using the right hand grip, the direction of the magnet field on the wire M is counterclockwise, and the direction of the magnetic field on wire N is clockwise. Using this ideas, we can see that the magnetic flux of both field due to the currents of the same magnitude through both wires, acting on a particle P equidistant from both wires will act in a direction perpendicularly away from both wires.

A man attempts to push a 19.8 kg crate across a warehouse floor. He slowly increases the force until the crate starts to move at

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

μ = 0.18

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second Law, the coordinate system is horizontal and vertical

Before starting to move the box

Y axis

N-W = 0

N = W = mg

X axis

F -fr = 0

F = fr

The friction force has the formula

fr = μ N

fr = μ m g

At the limit point just before starting the movement

F = μ m g

μ = F / m g

calculate

μ = 34.8 / (19.8 9.8)

μ = 0.18
