Answer:

It'd take approximately 6543 asteroids.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the number of asteroids needed to make that planet we first need to determine the volume of each object. To do this we will consider them as spheres and apply the appropriate formula:

$V_{asteroid} = \frac{4*\pi*0.98}{3} = 4.11 \text{ km}^3$

$V_{planet} = \frac{4*\pi*6420}{3} = 26892.03 \text{ km}^3$

The number of asteroids needed are given by the division of planet's volume by the asteroid's volume.

$n = \frac{26892.03}{4.11} = 6543.07$

It'd take approximately 6543 asteroids.

Explanation:

The gravitational force equation is the following:

$F_G = G * \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2} \\$

Where:

G = Gravitational constant = $6.67408 * 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}$

m1 & m2 = the mass of two related objects

r = distance between the two related objects

The problem gives you everything you need to plug into the formula, except for the gravitational constant. Let me know if you need further clarification.

You are riding a bicycle. If you apply a forward force of 150 N, and you and the bicycle have a combined mass of 90 kg, what wil

bekas [8.4K]

<h3>Hello There!!</h3>

<h3><u>Given</u>,</h3>

Force(F) = 150N

Mass(m) = 90kg

Acceleration(a) = ?

F= m×a

$150 = 90 \times \text{a} \\ \\ \text{a} = \frac{150}{90} \\ \fbox{cancelling by 3} \\ \\ \text{ a} = \cancel \frac{150}{90} \\ \\ \text{ a} = \frac{5}{3} = 1.67 \text{m/s} {}^{2}$

$\therefore \text{Option A= 1.67 m/s² is the correct answer}$

<h3>Hope this helps</h3>

The process that enhances some properties of an object at the expense of other properties is called:

lidiya [134]

Answer:

The answer is: letter a, pop-out effect.

Explanation:

The "pop-out effect" is a phenomenon which allows the person's precognitive processes to detect a<em> visual stimulus that is potentially the most meaningful one</em> in a person's spatial field of attention. The pop-up effect occurs when a person distinguishes one object from the rest.

For example, when a child chooses among pictures in different colors, it is common for the child to point at colored pictures rather than grayscale pictures. This is an example of a pop-out effect. <u>The properties of the colored pictures is more preferred by the child thus, causing him not to choose or mind the grayscale images.</u>

Thus, this explains the answer.

how much force is needed to move a brick with a mass of 345-kg a distance of 28m while doing 1008 j of work?

Travka [436]

    Work = (force) x (distance)

   1,008 J = (force) x (28 m)

Divide each side by 28m : (1,008 kg-m²/sec²) / (28 m) = force

   Force = 36 kg-m/s² = 36 Newtons .
      (about 8.1 pounds)

It doesn't matter what that force accomplishes.
It could be moving a brick, lifting a fish, or pushing a little red wagon.
In order to do 1,008 joules of work in 28 meters, it takes 36 N of force,
in the direction of the 28 meters.
