Answer:c-The gravitational effect when spacecraft flies close to the asteriod

Explanation:

Gravitational effect on the spacecraft gives an estimate that how big is the asteroid by experiencing its gravitational pull.

The amount of extra thrust required to maintain the trajectory of the spacecraft during its motion hints at the scientist about the size of the asteroid.

Gravitational pull is directly proportional to the mass of object so greater the mass, greater will be the pull.

A loop of wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field. For what orientation of the loop is the magnetic flux a maximum? For what
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The flux is calculated as φ=BAcosθ. The flux is thereforemaximum when the magnetic field vector is perpendicular to theplane of the loop. We may also deduce that the flux is zero whenthere is no component of the magnetic field that is perpendicularto the loop.

when angle is zero then flux is maximium because when angle zerocos is maximium

An apple from the top branch of the tree and an apple from the bottom branch of a tree fall at the same time. Which apple will h
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
B. The apple from the bottom will hit the ground earlier. This is because an increase in height causes an increase in the time that the object will fall, and therefore will affect the final velocity of the falling object. Moreover, the reduction in velocity due to friction from the air should also be considered.

A 60 kg person sits in a chair. How much does the earth pull on the person? (Acceleration due to gravity is -10m/s2) F = mxa → F
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

<em>600N(downwards)</em>

Explanations

<em>600N(downwards)</em>

Mas of the person = 60kg

Acceleration due to gravity = -10m/s²

To get the earths pull on the person, we will use the Newton second law of motion;

Force = mass * acceleration;

Force = 60 * -10

Force- -600N

<em>Hence the earth gravitational pull on the person is 600N(downwards). It is downwards due to the negative sign.</em>

The increase of kinetic energy at the square of the speed of your vehicle has a major influence on all motor vehicles in three p
Viktor [21]

This implies that stopping distance and impact force grow as a function of speed. The best ways to improve manoeuvrability and lessen crash severity are to drive at an appropriate pace and to slow down as soon as you spot dangers in front of you.

Keep in mind that stopping distance increases with speed; at 50 mph, it is four times longer than at 25 mph, and at 75 mph, the force of impact is nine times greater.

<h3>What is the impact of speed on kinetic energy ?</h3>

When your car expends or absorbs energy to speed up or slow down, you may feel a pull or a jolt, called impulse. Impulse increases as the energy or force increases, and increases as the duration of the force decreases. You'll feel a harder jolt if you speed up or slow down suddenly.

  • Consider: coming to a stop from 60 mph in ten seconds doesn't hurt you or your vehicle because the force of this event is spread out over a long time. But if you hit a wall and come to a stop in just half a second, you'll feel twenty times the impulse, causing severe damage.

For the circuit in the previous part, what happens to the maximum current if the frequency is doubled and the inductance is halv
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Following are the responses to these question:

Explanation:

Since the max^{m} is the current of ckt which depend on the reactance which   inductor that also enables the ckt and inductor resistance (X_L) for capacities

\to X_{C}=\frac{1}{W L}

for

\to X_{L}=wL

When w \longrightarrow 2w

L\longrightarrow \frac{L}{2}

then

\to X_{L}=2 w \times \frac{L}{2}=wL

 therefore, X_{L} remains at the same so, the maximum current remains the in same ckt.
