It's not possible to make any comparisons among those
three objects, since you've neglected to mention the masses
of two of them.  Several of the possible calculations would lead
to mathematical nightmares, involving divisions by zero.

What is the distance to a star whose parallex is 0.1 sec?
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

30.86\times 10^{13} km

Explanation:

Given the parallex of the star is 0.1 sec.

The distance is inversely related with the parallex of the star. Mathematically,

d=\frac{1}{P}

Here, d is the distance to a star which is measured in parsecs, and P is the parallex which is measured in arc seconds.

Now,

d=\frac{1}{0.1}\\d=10 parsec

And also know that,

1 parsec=3.086\times 10^{13} km

Therefore the distance of the star  is 30.86\times 10^{13} km away.

Dose mass alone determine weather an object will float or sink?
Inga [223]
If the density of the object is lower than the density of the liquid it is floating in then it will float. if the density is larger it will sink. density is mass/volume

Point charges q1 and q2 are separated by a distance of 60 cm along a horizontal axis. The magnitude of q1 is 3 times the magnitu
Alex777 [14]

d = distance between the two point charges = 60 cm = 0.60 m

r = distance of the location of point "a" where the electric field is zero from charge q_{1} between the two charges.

q_{1} = magnitude of charge on one charge

q_{2} = magnitude of charge on other charge

q_{1} = 3 q_{2}

E_{1} = Electric field by charge q_{1} at point "a"

E_{2} = Electric field by charge q_{2} at point "a"


Electric field by charge q_{1} at point "a" is given as

E_{1} = kq_{1} /r²

Electric field by charge q_{2} at point "a" is given as

E_{2} = kq_{2} /(d-r)²

For the electric field to be zero at point "a"

E_{2} = E_{1}

kq_{2} /(d-r)² = kq_{1} /r²

q_{2} /(d-r)² = 3q_{2} /r²

1/(0.60 - r)² = 3 /r²

r = 0.38 m

r = 38 cm

Mariulka [41]

We have centripetal acceleration = v^2/r = 2g

So, v = \sqrt{2gr}

Now by equation of motion we have S= ut +0.5at^2

S =displacement, u = initial velocity, a= acceleration and t = time

Here S =  2r and a = g , u = 0

2r = 0+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^2

t = \sqrt{\frac{4r}{g} }

Distance traveled in horizontal direction = \sqrt{2gr}*\sqrt{\frac{4r}{g} }= \sqrt{8r^2} =2r\sqrt{2}
