:Sample Response: Jupiter would have the strongest gravitational pull on a satellite orbiting above its surface because gravity is directly proportional to mass and Jupiter is the most massive planet.

According to the Law of Universal Gravitation, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass, and inversely proportional to the distance. In this problem, let's assume the celestial bodies to be restricted to the planets and the Sun. Since the distance is specified, the other factor would be the mass. Among all the celestial bodies, the Sun is the most massive. So, the Sun would cause the strongest gravitational pull to the satellite.

Currents circulate in a piece of metal that is pulled through a magnetic field. What are these currents called?
MariettaO [177]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Eddy currents

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Eddy currents are currents which circulate in conductors like swirling eddies in a stream. These currents are induced by changing magnetic fields and flow in closed loops, perpendicular to the plane of the magnetic field. </u></em>
  • They are created as a result of change in the intensity or direction of a magnetic field on a conductor, this occurs either when a conductor is moving through a magnetic field, or when the magnetic field surrounding a stationary conductor is varying

What is the relationship between frequency and pitch?
Anton [14]
In general, pitch increases more rapidly than frequency for tones below 1000 Hz and less rapidly for tones above 1000 Hz. That is, for frequencies above 1000 Hz a greater change in frequency is needed to produce a corresponding change in pitch.

81. a baseball is hit straight up and is caught by the catcher 2.0 s later, at the same height at which it left the bat. the max
andrew-mc [135]

The maximum height of the ball during this interval is 4.9 m (Option A)

<h3>How to determine the time to reach maximum height</h3>

The time taken to reach the maximum height can be obtained as follow:

  • Time for the entire trip (T) = 2 s
  • Time to reach maximum height (t) = ?

T = 2t

2 = 2t

Divide both side by 2

t = 2 / 2

t = 1 s

<h3>How to determine the maximum height reached by the ball</h3>

The maximum height reached by the ball can be obtained as follow:

  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Time to reach maximum height (t) =?
  • Maximum height (h) =?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 1²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 1

h = 4.9 m

Thus, the maximum height reached by the ball is 4.9 m (Option A)
