Describe why we cannot see details on the surface of Mars.​

Physics
2 answers:
alex41 [277]3 years ago

Answer:

1. Size of Mars is smaller

2. Distance from Earth

3. Dust Storms

Explanation:

The three main reasons that we can not see the features in detail are:

Mars is almost half in size than Earth and also at a minimum distance of 54.1 million km. At such a large distance with half of its size the details are not visible very prominently.

One more reason is the continuous dust storm over Mars which blocks our view of the surface of Mars.

But still when Mars is closest to us and has a clear weather we can spot the polar ice caps using a normal telescope on Earth.

Answer: atmosphere

Explanation:

We cannot see the surface of Mars because of its thick atmosphere and of the iron dust that kicks up

On a typical clear day, the atmospheric electric field points downward and has a magnitude of approximately 103 N/C. Compare the
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a) FE = 0.764FG

b) a = 2.30 m/s^2

Explanation:

a) To compare the gravitational and electric force over the particle you calculate the following ratio:

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{qE}{mg}              (1)

FE: electric force

FG: gravitational force

q: charge of the particle = 1.6*10^-19 C

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

E: electric field = 103N/C

m: mass of the particle = 2.2*10^-15 g = 2.2*10^-18 kg

You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)}{(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}\\\\\frac{F_E}{F_G}=0.764

Then, the gravitational force is 0.764 times the electric force on the particle

b)

The acceleration of the particle is obtained by using the second Newton law:

F_E-F_G=ma\\\\a=\frac{qE-mg}{m}

you replace the values of all variables:

a=\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(103N/C)-(2.2*10^{-18}kg)(9.8m/s^2)}{2.2*10^{-18}kg}\\\\a=-2.30\frac{m}{s^2}

hence, the acceleration of the particle is 2.30m/s^2, the minus sign means that the particle moves downward.

On what factor does speed of sound depend​
velikii [3]

Answer:

For sound waves to travel, there is a requirement of medium and density of the medium is considered to be one of the factors on which the speed of sound depends. When the medium is dense, the molecules in the medium are closely packed which means that the sound travels faster.

A 0.50-kg bomb is sliding along an icy pond (frictionless surface) with a velocity of 2.0 m/s to the west. The bomb explodes int
nevsk [136]

Answer:

2.667m/s to the north and 3.333 m/s to the west

Explanation:

According to law of momentum conservation, the total momentum should be conserved before and after the explosion.

Before the explosion, the momentum was

0.5*2 = 1 kg m/s to the west

Therefore the total momentum after the explosion should be the same horizontally and vertically.

Vertically speaking, it was 0 before the explosion. After the explosion:

0.2*4 + 0.3v = 0

0.3v = -0.8

v = -0.8/0.3 = -2.667 m/s

So the vertical component of the 0.3kg piece is 2.667m/s to the north

Horizontally speaking, since the 0.2kg-piece doesn't move west or east post-explosion:

0.2*0 + 0.3V = 1

0.3V = 1

V = 1/0.3 = 3.333 m/s

So the horizontal component of the 0.3kg piece is 3.333 m/s to the west
