Answer:

a. A

Explanation:

Kepler's First Law says that the orbits of planets are ellipses with the sun at one focus of the ellipse. Moreover, Kepler’s Second Law says that the line joining the planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times as it moves along its orbit. Finally, Kepler’s Third Law says that the ratio of the squares of the periods for two planets is equal to the ratio of the cubes of their semi-major axes.

By these laws, the comet A will have lower orbital speed.

Consider a concave spherical mirr or that has focal length f = +19.5 cm.
lidiya [134]

The distance of an object from the mirror's vertex if the image is real and has the same height as the object is 39 cm.

<h3>What is concave mirror?</h3>

A concave mirror has a reflective surface that is curved inward and away from the light source.

Concave mirrors reflect light inward to one focal point and it usually form real and virtual images.

<h3>Object distance of the concave mirror</h3>

Apply mirrors formula as shown below;

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

where;

  • f is the focal length of the mirror
  • v is the object distance
  • u is the image distance

when image height = object height, magnification = 1

u/v = 1

v = u

Substitute the given parameters and solve for the distance of the object from the mirror's vertex

1/f = 1/v + 1/v

1/f = 2/v

v = 2f

v = 2(19.5 cm)

v = 39 cm

Thus, the distance of an object from the mirror's vertex if the image is real and has the same height as the object is 39 cm.

A physics book slides off a horizontal tabletop with a speed of 1.10 m/s. It strikes the floor in 0.350s. ignore air resistance.
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

a. 0.6 m b. 0.385 m c. 3.6 m/s at 287.78° to the horizontal

Explanation:

a. Using s = ut - 1/2gt² for motion under gravity where s = vertical distance = height of table, u = initial vertical velocity of book = 0 m/s, t = time of flight = 0.350 s and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Substituting these these values into s and taking the top of the table as position 0 m, we have.

0 - s = 0t - 1/2gt²

-s = -1/2gt²

s = 1/2gt²

s = 1/2 × 9.8 m/s² × (0.350 s)²

s = 0.6 m

b. Using d = v't where d = horizontal distance from table, v' = horizontal velocity of book = 1.10 m/s and t = time of flight = 0.350 s

d = v't = 1.10 m/s × 0.350 s = 0.385 m

c. Using v² = u² - 2gs where u = initial vertical velocity of book = 0 m/s and g = 9.8 m/s², s = -0.6 m (negative since we are at the bottom and 0 m is at the top)and v = final vertical velocity of book

v² = u² - 2gs

= 0 - 2 × 9.8 m/s² × (-0.6 m)

= 11.76 m²/s²

v = √11.76 m/s

= 3.43 m/s

So, the magnitude of the resultant velocity is V = √(v² + v'²)

= √((3.43 m/s)² + (1.10 m/s)'²)

= √(11.76 m²/s² + 1.21 m²/s²)

= √12.97 m²/s²

= 3.6 m/s

Its direction Ф = tan⁻¹(-v/v') since v is in the negative y direction

= tan⁻¹(-3.43 m/s/1.10 m/s)

= tan⁻¹(-3.1182)

= -72.22°

Ф = -72.22°+ 360 = 287.78° since it is in the third quadrant

A small metal bead, labeled A, has a charge of 28 nC .It is touched to metal bead B, initially neutral, so that the two beads sh
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the charge on bead A be q nC  and the charge on bead B be 28nC - qnC

Force F between them

4.8\times10^{-4} = \frac{9\times10^9\times q\times(28-q)\times10^{-18}}{(5\times10^{-2})^2}

=120 x 10⁻⁸ = 9 x q(28 - q ) x 10⁻⁹

133.33 = 28q - q²

q²- 28q +133.33 = 0

It is a quadratic equation , which has two solution

q_A = 21.91 x 10⁻⁹C or q_B = 6.09 x 10⁻⁹ C
