Scientists have concluded that Earth is at risk of future impacts with meteoroids. What are some criteria that engineers conside

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:
Explain step by step
Explanation:
Collisions with asteroids, comets and other stuff from space have been responsible for huge landmarks in our planet’s history: global shifts in climate, the creation of our moon, the reshuffling of our deepest geology, and the extinction of species.

Asteroid threats pop up in the news every now and then, but the buzz tends to fizzle away as the projectiles pass us by. Other times, as with the 2013 Chelyabinsk meteor in Russia, we don’t know they’re here until they’re here.
Perhaps most useful to remember is that when near-Earth objects (including asteroids, comets and meteoroids) enter the atmosphere, they’re called meteors; and if there’s anything left when they hit the ground, the resulting object is called a meteorite. We tend to focus on asteroids when talking about potential collisions, because they’re more likely to hit us than other stuff like comets, but still big enough to pose a threat.

An upright object 2.80 cm tall is placed 16.0 cm away from the vertex of a concave mirror with a center of curvature of 24.0 cm.

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

f = 12 cm

Explanation:

<u>Center of Curvature</u>:

The center of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Center of Curvature’ of mirror.

<u>The Radius of Curvature</u>:

The radius of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Radius of Curvature’ of mirror. It is the distance from pole to the center of curvature.

<u>Focal Length</u>:

The distance between principal focus and pole is called ‘Focal Length’. It is denoted by ‘F’.

The focal length of the spherical (concave) mirror is approximately equal to half of the radius of curvature:

$f = \frac{R}{2}$

where,

f = focal length = ?

R = Radius of curvature = 24 cm

Therefore,

$f = \frac{24\ cm}{2}$

<u>f = 12 cm</u>

The depth of the Pacific Ocean in the Mariana Trench is 36,198 ft. What is the gauge pressure at this depth

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

the pressure at the depth is 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa

Explanation:

The pressure at the depth is given by,

P = h $\rho$ g

Where, P = pressure at the depth

h = depth of the Pacific Ocean in the Mariana Trench = 36,198 ft = 11033.15 meter

$\rho$ = density of water = 1000 $\frac{kg}{m^{3} }$

g = acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

P = 11033.15 × 9.8 × 1000

P = 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa

Thus, the pressure at the depth is 1.08 × $10^{8}$ Pa
