Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

According to research by several scientists, Saturn's rings aren't solid, as they appear from Earth.  They are actually made up of floating chunks of water ice, rocks and dust that range in diferent sizes from specks to enormous, even house-sized pieces that orbit Saturn in a ring pattern.

An athlete kicks a soccer ball that starts at rest so that it leaves their foot with a speed of 10m/s from the top o f a rectang
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

a=500m/s^2

Explanation:

We need only to apply the definition of acceleration, which is:

a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_i}

In our case the final velocity is v_f=10m/s, the initial velocity is v_i=0m/s since it departs from rest, the final time is t_f=0.02s and the initial time we are considering is t_i=0s

So for our values we have:

a=\frac{10m/s-0m/s}{0.02s-0s}=500m/s^2

A string that passes over a pulley has a 0.341 kg mass attached to one end and a 0.625 kg mass attached to the other end. The pu
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The frictional torque is \tau  = 0.2505 \ N \cdot m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass attached to one end the string is m_1 =  0.341 \ kg

   The mass attached to the other end of the string is  m_2 =  0.625 \ kg

    The radius of the disk is  r = 9.00 \ cm  = 0.09 \ m

At equilibrium the tension on the string due to the first mass is mathematically represented as

      T_1 =  m_1 *  g

substituting values

      T_1 =  0.341 * 9.8

      T_1 =  3.342 \ N

At equilibrium the tension on the string due to the  mass is mathematically represented as

      T_2 =  m_2 *  g

     T_2 = 0.625 * 9.8

      T_2 = 6.125 \ N

The  frictional torque that must be exerted is mathematically represented as

      \tau  =  (T_2 * r ) - (T_1 * r )

substituting values  

     \tau  =  ( 6.125 * 0.09 ) - (3.342  * 0.09 )

     \tau  = 0.2505 \ N \cdot m

The specific heat capacity of sea water is 4100 J/Kg°C and the boiling point of 100.6 °C. (i) Calculate the energy required to r
maw [93]

Answer:

334.314 (kJ)

Explanation:

1) the formula for the required energy is: Q=c*m(Bp-t), where c - 4100 J/kg*C; m - 0.9 kg; Bp - 100.6 C; t - 10 C.

2) according to the formula above:

Q=4100*0.9*(100.6-10)=41*9*906=334314 (J).

One event occurs at the origin at t equal to zero, and a second events occurs at the point x=5m along the x-axis at time with ct
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

  • The separation will be spacelike.
  • The first event can't cause the second event, as there exist an frame of reference in which both happens at the same time, in different positions, so, if there were causally connected, it will imply an instant connection, this is faster than light.

Explanation:

We can define the separation between two events (using the + - - - signature)  as :

(\Delta s )^2  = (ct_2 - c t_1 )^2 - (x_2 - x_1)^2

where the separation will be lightlike if is equal to zero, timelike if is positive and spacelike if is negative.

For our problem

c t_1 = 0

x_1 = 0

ct_2 = 4 \ m

x_2 = 5 \ m

(\Delta s )^2  = (4 \ m - 0 )^2 - ( 5 \ m - 0)^2

(\Delta s )^2  = (4 \ m )^2 - ( 5 \ m 0)^2

(\Delta s )^2  = 16 \ m^ 2 - 25 \ m^2

(\Delta s )^2  = - 9\ m^2

So the separation will be spacelike, and the first event can't cause the second event, as there exist an frame of reference in which both happens at the same time, in different positions, so, if there were causally connected, it will imply an instant connection, this is faster than light.
