Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

mass of the three planet is same

radius of the planets are

R₁ > R₂ > R₃

expression of escape velocity

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{2GM}{R}}

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

from the above expression we can clearly conclude that the escape velocity is inversely proportional to the radius of the Planet.

radius of planet increases escape velocity decreases.

Hence planet 3 has the smallest radius so the escape velocity of the third planet will be maximum.

The correct answer is option C

Bob and John are pulling in different directions. If Bob is pulling to the right with a force of 10N, and John is pulling to the
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

-- The net force on the box is 2N to the left.

-- The box will move to the left and accelerate to the left.

-- F=ma . a=F/m . a=(2N)/(4kg).

a = 0.5 m/s^2 to the left.

What would happen if you tried to use a prism to disperse a beam that contained only green light?​
Margaret [11]

It is determined by the nature of the green light. Because lasers create light at almost a single frequency, green laser light would appear as a thin line of pure green. Other sources of "green" light emit light at a variety of frequencies, including yellow and blue, resulting in a strong green band in the center that fades into blue-green and yellow-green at the borders.

For example, here’s a graph of the spectrum of a green LED, showing the color range: Attachment #1

and here’s a graph of the transmission spectra of several standard photographic filters, including green: Attachment #2
