The answer is actually B 
puteri [66]3 years ago

Answer:

B is the answer because if you throw a phone in space it will hit the ground way slower than if you threw it on earth.

earth pulls the phone back down faster because the earth's gravity is stronger!

Explanation:

The answer can't be A because you have less gravity in space.

C is incorrect because earth's gravity forces us down, but in space you can float

D is incorrect for the same reason as A

Two spherical asteroids have the same radius R. Asteroid 1 has mass M and asteroid 2 has mass 1.97·M. The two asteroids are rele
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

0.536\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of one  asteroid 1,m_1=M

Mass of asteroid 2,m_2=1.97 M

Initial distance between their centers,d=13.63 R

Radius of each asteroid=R

d'=R+R=2R

Initial velocity of both asteroids

u=0

We have to find the speed of second asteroid just before they collide.

According to law of conservation of momentum

(m_1+m_2)u=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

(M+1.97 M)\times 0=Mv_1+1.97Mv_2

Mv_1=-1.97 Mv_2

v_1=-1.97v_2

According to law of conservation of energy

Gm_1m_2(\frac{1}{d'}-\frac{1}{d})=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2_1+\frac{1}{2}m_2v^2_2

GM(1.97M)(\frac{1}{2R}-\frac{1}{13.63R})=\frac{1}{2}M(-1.97v_2)^2+\frac{1}{2}(1.97M)v^2_2

1.97M^2G(\frac{13.63-2}{27.26R})=\frac{1}{2}Mv^2_2(3.8809+1.97)

1.97MG(\frac{11.63}{27.26 R})=\frac{1}{2}(5.8509)v^2_2

v^2_2=\frac{1.97GM\times11.63\times 2}{27.26R\times 5.8509}

v_2=\sqrt{\frac{1.97GM\times11.63\times 2}{27.26R\times 5.8509}}

v_2=0.536\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}

Hence, the speed of second asteroid =0.536\sqrt{\frac{GM}{R}}

Explain why dogs pant during hot summer days using the evaporation concept?
damaskus [11]
All, or almost all, warm-blooded creatures get rid of excess heat by evaporating moisture from their bodies. It's a great system, because evaporation takes a lot of heat. That's the reason people perspire when we're active and build up a lot of heat inside. The evaporation of sweat from our skin carries away heat with it. Dogs do not sweat on their skin. The only place they can evaporate moisture is through their mouth. Panting speeds up the evaporation by blowing air across the moisture.

salantis [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance to grandmother's house=100 mi

it is given that during return trip Julie spend equal time driving with speed 30 mph and 70 mph

Let Julie travel x mi with 30 mph and 100-x with 70 mph

\frac{x}{30}=\frac{100-x}{70}

x=30 mi

Therefore

Julie's Average speed on the way to Grandmother's house=\frac{100}{\frac{50}{30}+\frac{50}{70}}

=42 mph

On return trip

=\frac{100}{2\frac{30}{30}}=50 mph
