Give at least two reasons today’s astronomers are so interested in the discovery of additional Earth-approaching asteroids.

Answer:

1. Potential hazard

2. Mining opportunity

Explanation:

The two reason, why astronomers are so interested in the discovery of additional Earth-approaching asteroids:

1. Potential hazard: We have proof that the dinosaurs got extinct because of an asteroid/comet strike on Earth. Also we have seen the effects of the Tunguska event and Chelyabinsk tragedy. These are enough to show us that asteroids can be very dangerous and wipe out the life from Earth.

2. Mining Opportunity: We have discovered a lot of asteroids which contains a lot of metal and precious elements. There can be a possibility of mining such asteroids in the future and reducing the burden on Earth.

Answer:

Energy is essentially work done by an object or on object.

From,

W = Fd

It's directly proportional to mass.

from,

K. E = 1/2mv²

Energy is directly proportional to mass.

P. E = mgh

Energy is directly proportional to mass.

H = mc∆T

Energy is directly proportional to mass.

Thus increasing mass will increase the energy also imparted on another object since all the above eqns show that relationship.

And for 2 moving bodies

K.Ei = K.Ef(energy conservation)

m1u²1 + m2u²2 = m1v²1 + m2v²2

The relationship is the same that the greater mass the greater the impact.

Air is cooled in a process with constant pressure of 150 kPa. Before the process begins, air has a specific volume of 0.062 m^3/
Mama L [17]

Answer:

The pressure is constant, and it is P = 150kpa.

the specific volumes are:

initial = 0.062 m^3/kg

final = 0.027 m^3/kg.

Then, the specific work can be written as:

W = \int\limits^{vf}_{vi} {Pdv} \, = P(vf - vi) = 150kPa*(0.0027 - 0.062)m^3/kg = -5.25 kPa*m^3/kg.

The fact that the work is negative, means that we need to apply work to the air in order to compress it.

Now, to write it in more common units we have that:

1 kPa*m^3 = 1000J.

-5.25 kPa*m^3/kg = -5250 J/kg.
