Answer:

A

Explanation:

Scattering of light occurs when light passes through an imperfect medium (such as an ice block filled with bubbles). Each ray of light hit the medium differently and hence deflected differently from the rest. An example of a case scenario is during a hot  dry day on tarmac that causes one to see a 'water pool' on the road due to  mirage.

You place a box weighing 200.2 N on a inclined plane that makes a 37.1 angle with the horizontal. Compute the component of the g
salantis [7]

Answer:

141.56 N.

Explanation:

Data given:

Weight of the box= 200.2 N

Angle with the horizontal= 37.1°

Solution;

Gravitational force on the box, F_g= weight of the box

                                                                           = 200.2 N

Component of gravitational force along plane = F_g * sin( ∅ )

                                                                                   = W * (sin∅)

                                                                                   = (200.1) * sin (37.1°)

                                                                                   = 141.56 N

calculate the period of a wave whose frequency is 5 Hertz and whose wavelength is one centimeter give your answer in a decimal f
olga2289 [7]
The period of the wave is the reciprocal of its frequency.

       1 / (5 per second)  =  0.2 second .

The wavelength is irrelevant to the period.  But since you
gave it to us, we can also calculate the speed of the wave.

Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)

                   = (5 per second) x (1cm)  =  5 cm per second

Calculate the orbital period of a dwarf planet found to have a semimajor axis of a = 4.0x 10^12 meters in seconds and years.
padilas [110]

Explanation:

We have,

Semimajor axis is 4\times 10^{12}\ m

It is required to find the orbital period of a dwarf planet. Let T is time period. The relation between the time period and the semi major axis is given by Kepler's third law. Its mathematical form is given by :

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{GM}a^3

G is universal gravitational constant

M is solar mass

Plugging all the values,

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.98\times 10^{30}}\times (4\times 10^{12})^3\\\\T=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\pi^{2}}{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.98\times10^{30}}\times(4\times10^{12})^{3}}\\\\T=4.37\times 10^9\ s

Since,

1\ s=3.17\times 10^{-8}\ \text{years}\\\\4.37\times 10^9\ s=4.37\cdot10^{9}\cdot3.17\cdot10^{-8}\\\\4.37\times 10^9\ s=138.52\ \text{years}

So, the orbital period of a dwarf planet is 138.52 years.

1. Space probes have not landed on Pluto yet. Describe three types of information you would collect if you were designing the pr
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Space probes are made to conduct science experiments. They do not have people on them. Space probes have helped scientists get information about our solar system. Most probes are not designed to return to Earth. Some have landed on other planets! Others have flown past the planets and taken pictures of them for scientists to see. There are even some space probes that go into orbit around other planets and study them for a long time. The information they gather is used to help us understand the weather and other changes which happen on planets other than the Earth. This information is important in helping to plan other space missions such as ones to Mars and to Saturn.
