Answer: Adhesion

Explanation: Adhesion is the tendency of dissimilar particles or surfaces to cling to one another (cohesion refers to the tendency of similar or identical particles/surfaces to cling to one another). The forces that cause adhesion and cohesion can be divided into several types. This allows Particles in things like water to stick to surfaces

A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Its closest approach to the Sun is a distance of 4.7 1010 m (inside the orbit
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

58515.9 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

d_1=4.7\times 10^{10} m

v_i=9.5\times 10^4 m/s

d_2=6\times 10^{12} m

We have to find the speed (vf).

Work done by surrounding particles=W=0 Therefore, initial energy is equal to final energy.

K_i+U_i=K_f+U_f

\frac{1}{2}mv^2_i-\frac{GmM}{d_1}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2_f-\frac{GmM}{d_2}

\frac{1}{2}v^2_i-\frac{GM}{d_1}+\frac{GM}{d_2}=\frac{1}{2}v^2_f

v^2_f=2(\frac{1}{2}v^2_i-\frac{GM}{d_1}+\frac{GM}{d_2})

v_f=\sqrt{2(\frac{1}{2}v^2_i-\frac{GM}{d_1}+\frac{GM}{d_2})}

Using the formula

v_f=\sqrt{v^2_i+2GM(\frac{1}{d_2}-\frac{1}{d_1})}

v_f=\sqrt{(9.5\times 10^4)^2+2\times 6.7\times 10^{-11}\times 1.98\times 10^{30}(\frac{1}{6\times 10^{12}}-\frac{1}{4.7\times 10^{10})}

Where mass of sun=M=1.98\times 10^{30} kg

G=6.7\times 10^{-11}

v_f=58515.9 m/s

The layers that make up the upper mantle are the following.

  • The lithosphere and the asthenosphere.
  • The lithosphere and the asthenosphere are the layers that make up the upper mantle.
  • The rocky outer part of the Earth is called the lithosphere.
  • It is very rigid, solid, and it is not as hot as the other parts.
  • According to scientists, its thickness is about 90 to 100 kilometers from the surface of the earth.
  • The layer of the Earth that moves the lithospheric plates is called the asthenosphere.
  • Lithospheric plates are 60 miles long on average and are composed of continental crust.

We conclude that the lithosphere and the asthenosphere are the layers that make up the upper mantle. The new lithosphere is being created at oceanic ridges due to plate tectonics. Yes, planet Earth is getting larger constantly.

Please help! I especially need help with the second question but help with the first one would be most appreciated!

Answer:

a) Team A will win.

b) The losing team will accelerate towards the middle line with 0.01 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Given that Team-A pulls with a force , F_{1} = 50N

and Team-B pulls with a force , F_{1} = 45N

∵ F_{1} > F_{2}

The rope will move in the direction of force F_{1}.

∴ Team-A will win.

b) Considering both the teams as one system of total mass , m = 246+253 = 499 kg

Net force on the system , F = F_{1} - F_{2} = 50-45 = 5N

Applying Newtons first law to the system ,

F = ma , where 'a' is the acceleration of the system.

Since , both the teams are connected by the same rope , their acceleration would be the same.

∴ 5 = 499×a

∴ a = 0.01 m/s^{2}
