Answer:

The right answer is inertia.

Explanation:

This name is given to the tendency of an object that is moving to remain that way, or if it is resting remain that way until an external force act upon it. Basically it means an object does what they are doing unless a force changes their speed or direction.

It's the natural tendency of things to keep going unless there's something trying to stop them.

It's usually called "inertia".

Don't get the idea from all of this that things stop unless there's something to keep them going. The truth is exactly the opposite: Things keep going unless there's something to make them stop.

The robot HooRU is lost in space, floating around aimlessly, and radiates heat into the depths of the cosmos at the rate of 13.1

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The temperature is $T = 168.44 \ K$

Explanation:

From the question ewe are told that

The rate of heat transferred is $P = 13.1 \ W$

The surface area is $A = 1.55 \ m^2$

The emissivity of its surface is $e = 0.287$

Generally, the rate of heat transfer is mathematically represented as

$H = A e \sigma T^{4}$

=> $T = \sqrt[4]{\frac{P}{e* \sigma } }$

where $\sigma$ is the Boltzmann constant with value $\sigma = 5.67*10^{-8} \ W\cdot m^{-2} \cdot K^{-4}.$

substituting value

$T = \sqrt[4]{\frac{13.1}{ 0.287* 5.67 *10^{-8} } }$

$T = 168.44 \ K$

Name three bright Saturn ring features, and explain why they are so bright.

Leviafan [203]

The F Ring, the Cassini Division, and the C Ring are bright ring features. They are bright due to the low concentration of materials within them, which allows sunlight to shine through.

What is the acceleration of an 24 kg object that applies a force of 130N?

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

To find the acceleration of the object we have to apply Newton second law of motion that is F = mass × acceleration.

Explanation:

Given ,

F = 130N

M = 24kg

A = ?

F = m× a

then ,

130N = 24kg ×a

a = 130/24 = 5 m/s.
