Hey there,

Wavelength is measured from crest to crest so the correct answer will be A.

Hope I helped :)

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid C and 581 km from the center of asteroid

serg [7]

Answer:B

Explanation:

Given

Distance of astronaut From asteroid x is $r_x=140 km$

Distance of astronaut From asteroid Y is $r_y=581 km$

Suppose M,M_x,M_y be the masses of Astronaut , asteroid X and Y

If the astronaut is in equilibrium then net gravitational force on it is zero

$F_x=F_y$

$\frac{GMM_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{GMM_y}{r_y^2}$

cancel out the common terms we get

$\frac{M_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{M_y}{r_y^2}$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{r_x}{r_y})^2$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{140}{581})^2$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=0.05806\approx 0.0581$

Near the surface of Earth an electric field points radially downward and has a magnitude of approximately 100 N/C. What charge (

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$q=2.997\times 10^{-4}$ C

Sign-Negative

Explanation:

We are given that

Electric field = $E=100NC^{-1}$ (Radially downward)

Acceleration= $0.19 ms^{-2}$ (Upward)

Mass of charge=3 g= $3\times 10^{-3}$ kg

1kg=1000g

We have to find the magnitude and sign of charge would have to be placed on a penny .

By newton's second law

$\sum F_y=ma$

$\sum F_y=qE-mg$

Substitute the values then we get

$qE-mg=ma$

Substitute the values then we get

$q(100)-3\times 10^{-3}(9.8)=3\times 10^{-3}(0.19)$

$100q-29.4\times 10^{-3}=0.57\times 10^{-3}$

$100q=0.57\times 10^{-3}+29.4\times 10^{-3}=29.97\times 10^{-3}$

$q=\frac{29.97\times 10^{-3}}{100}$

$q=2.997\times 10^{-4}$ C

Sign of charge =Negative

Because electric force acting in opposite direction of electric field therefore,charge on penny will be negative.

Calculate the total mechanical energy of a 2 kg duck flying at 5 m/s, at a height of 10 meters above the ground.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Total mechanical energy = 225 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of duck (m) = 2 kg

Speed of duck (v)= 5 m/s

Height of duck from ground (h) = 10 m

Gravitation acceleration (g) = 10 m/s²

Find:

Total mechanical energy

Computation:

Total mechanical energy = Kinetic energy + Potential energy

Total mechanical energy = (1/2)mv² + mgh

Total mechanical energy = (1/2)(2)(5)² + (2)(10)(10)

Total mechanical energy = 25 + 200

Total mechanical energy = 225 J
