Suppose you read in the newspaper that a new planet has been found. Its average speed in its orbit is 33 kilometers per second (
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

E. Kepler's second law says the planet must move fastest when it is closest, not  when it is farthest away.

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Kepler's second law of planetary motion, which states that:

"A line connecting the center of the Sun with the center of each planet sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time"

This means that when a planet is further away from the Sun, it will move slower (because the line is longer, so it must move slower), while when the planet is closer to the Sun, it will move faster (because the line is shorter, so it must move faster).

In the text of this problem, it is written that the planet moves at 31 km/s when is close to the star and 35 km/s when it is farthest: this is in disagreement with what we said above, therefore the correct option is

E. Kepler's second law says the planet must move fastest when it is closest, not  when it is farthest away.

A 3.00 kg mud ball has a perfectly inelastic collision with a second mud ball that is initially at rest. the composite system mo
viva [34]
Perfectly inelastic collision is type of collision during which two objects collide, stay connected and momentum is conserved. Formula used for conservation of momentum is:

m_{1} * v_{1} +  m_{2} * v_{2} =  m_{1} * v'_{1} +  m_{2} * v'_{2}

In case of perfectly inelastic collision v'1 and v'2 are same.

We have following information:
m₁=3 kg
m₂=? kg
v₁=x m/s
v₂=0 m/s
v'1 = v'2 = 1/3 * v₁

Now we insert given information and solve for m₂:
3*v₁ + 0*? = 3*1/3*v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
3v₁ = v₁ + m₂*1/3*v₁
2v₁ = m₂*1/3*v₁
2 = m₂*1/3
m₂= 6kg

Mass of second mud ball is 6kg.

Two identical loudspeakers are some distance apart. A person stands 5.80 m from one speaker and 3.90 m from the other. What is t
NikAS [45]

Answer:

f = 632 Hz

Explanation:

As we know that for destructive interference the path difference from two loud speakers must be equal to the odd multiple of half of the wavelength

here we know that

\Delta x = (2n + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}

given that path difference from two loud speakers is given as

\Delta x = 5.80 m - 3.90 m

\Delta x = 1.90 m

now we know that it will have fourth lowest frequency at which destructive interference will occurs

so here we have

\Delta x = 1.90 = \frac{7\lambda}{2}

\lambda = \frac{2 \times 1.90}{7}

\lambda = 0.54 m

now for frequency we know that

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

f = \frac{343}{0.54} = 632 Hz

A 500 kg table with 4 legs rests on solid flat ground. I place 3 books on the center of the table with masses of 10 kg, 20 kg an
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

1,373.4 N

Explanation:

The mass of the table acts at the centre in addition to the books since that is the centre of gravity of the table.

Mass of books will be 10kg+20kg+30kg=60 kg

Total mass of table and books will be 500kg+60kg=560 kg

This mass is evenly distributed into the four legs hence 560kg/4 legs=140 kg per leg

Force is product of mass and acceleration due to gravity hence F=gm

Taking g as 9.81 m/s2 then

F=140*9.81=1,373.4 N

Therefore, rhe normal force is equivalent to 1,373.4 N
