Answer:

The Earth weighs 5.972 × 10^24 kg

The Sun is 94.022 million miles away.

A black hole is is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing, no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light can escape from it. The theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole.

I hope this helps!! :)

Answer: find the answer in the explanation.

Explanation:

1.) The weight of the earth can be calculated and estimated by the physicist by considering the mass of the earth and the knowlegde of gravity.

If the mass of the earth is considered to be 6 × 10^24 kg. Then with Physics formula and some mathematical techniques, we can conclude that the weight of the earth is approximately equal to 6 × 10^25 N.

2.) The distance of the sun to the earth is approximately 1.5 × 10^8 km. This measure is the distance from the surface of the earth to the sun.

3.) The black hole is approximately the size of the earth of very large gravitational field strength. It is a region of space of enormous gravity where no particular object can escape from it. Even electromagnetic radiation or light cannot escape from it.

suter [353]

Resistors and reactors, for use over 600 volts, shall not be installed in close enough proximity to combustible materials to constitute a fire hazard and shall have a clearance of not less than<u> 300 mm </u>from combustible materials.

Explanation:

  • The hazards associated with high power industrial resistors are primarily due to their open construction, which is necessary for cooling.
  • The exposed conductors which make up the resistors can be not only a shock hazard but also a thermal burn hazard.
  • When a resistor fails, it either goes open or the resistance increases. When the resistance increases, it can burn the board, or burn itself up.
  • Avoid touching non-flammable resistors in operation; the surface temperature ranges from approximately 350 °C to 400°C when utilized at the full rated value. Maintaining a surface temperature of 200°C or less will extend resistors service life.
  • Do not apply power to a circuit while measuring resistance. When you are finished using an ohmmeter, switch it to the OFF position if one is provided and remove the leads from the meter.
  • Always adjust the ohmmeter for 0 (or in shunt ohmmeter) after you change ranges before making the resistance measurement.

Which of the following atoms is least likely to form chemical bonds with other atoms
wariber [46]
The atom that would least likely form chemical bonds with other atoms would be C. A neon containing 4 valence electrons, this is because neon itself is an inert gas, it would not necessarily react as it already possess the maximum number of electrons needed to achieve stability and have a full octet, even if it is forced to obtain 4 valence electrons it would not react with other atoms.

A block is balanced on top of a frictionless sphere of radius R. When the block is given a slight nudge it starts to slide down
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:\frac{R}{3}

Explanation:

Given

Sphere of Radius R

Suppose mass of block is m

At any instant \theta Normal reaction(N) and weight(mg) is acting such that

mg\sin \theta -N=\frac{mv^2}{R}  , where v is velocity of block at any angle \theta

When block is just about to leave then N=0

therefore

mg\sin \theta =\frac{mv^2}{R}

v^2=gR\sin \theta-------------------1

Also by conserving Energy we get

Potential Energy=kinetic Energy of block

mgh=\frac{mv^2}{2}

here h=vertical distance traveled by block

From diagram

h=R-R\sin \theta

h=R(1-\sin \theta )

mgR(1-\sin \theta )=\frac{mv^2}{2}

2gR(1-\sin \theta )=v^2-----------------2

From 1 and  2

2(1-\sin \theta )=\sin \theta

3\sin \theta =2

\sin \theta =\frac{2}{3}

Thus from this value of h is

h=R(1-\sin \theta )

h=R(1-\frac{2}{3})

h=\frac{R}{3}

What is the critical angle and how does it relate to total internal reflection?
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

critical angle is the angle of incidence in optically denser medium, for which the angle of reflection in the less denser medium is 90 degree

Explanation:

total internal reflection occurs at one particular angle of incidence where the reflected ray lies on the boundary.

this angle is called the critical angle
