Allison is looking through a telescope at an object in space. The object looks like a very small planet, and it does not have a

tail. If the object is orbiting the Sun and not the Earth, what is Allison most likely looking at?

Answer:

Allison is probably looking at the asteroid.

Explanation:

  • Asteroids are the giant gas balls of inner solar system that are present in the space.
  • Asteroids orbits around the sun in very irregular ans strange path unlike the other planets.
  • This is also the reason why it's called as the minor planets.
  • It could have been comet but if it had been a comets he must have seen the tail but asteroids do not have any tail like structure.

A ball of clay is moving at a speed of 12 m/s collides and sticks to a stationary ball of clay. If each ball has a mass of 13 kg
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

p_{f} = 6 m / s

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using conservation of momentum. For this we define a system formed by the two balls, so that the forces during the collision have been intense and the moment is preserved

Initial instant. Before the crash

        p₀ = m v +0

Final moment. Right after the crash

        p_{f} = (m + m) v_{f}

how the moment is preserved

        p₀ = p_{f}

       m v = 2 m v_{f}

       v_{f} = v / 2

we calculate

       v_{f} = 12/2

       p_{f} = 6 m / s

Whenever a musician plays a guitar, they pluck one of the guitar strings to produce a standing wave in the string. Then pinch do
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

It's due to the distance from either ends of strings origin...

Explanation:

As we know that waves behave moving in a flow from one side to another side and this gives a prospective of motion. Suppose a wave is pinched from the near one end of a guitar then due to the distortion created by the point of tie of strings the wave super imposes and moves with a velocity v and produces a wave frequency f. as we the pinching go down to the center the wave stabilizes itself to a stationary origin right at the center and the frequency then changes accordingly as moving down on the string.

Suppose a skydiver (mass=75kg) is falling toward the earth when the skydiver is 100m above the earth he is moving at 60m/s at th
IRISSAK [1]

Given:

Mass(m)=75kg

Height (h) =100m

v(velocity)=60m/s

a(g)=9.8m/s^2(since it is a free falling object)

Now we know that

v=u+at

We know that

Potential energy=mgh

Where m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height above the ground

Substituting the above values we get

Potential energy=75 x 9.8 x 100

=73500N

Now kinetic energy =1/2mv^2

Where m is the mass

v is the velocity

Kinetic energy= 1/2 (75x60 x 60)

Kinetic energy=135000N

Now mechanical energy=

Kinetic energy+ Potential energy

Substituting the values in the above formula we get

Mechanical energy= 73500+135000

=208500N
