Assuming a roughly spherical shape and a density of 4000 kg/m3, estimate the diameter of an asteroid having the average mass of

1017 kg.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Density of asteroid, \rho=4000\ kg/m^3

Mass of asteroid, m=10^{17}\ kg

We need to find the diameter of the asteroid. The formula of density is given by:

\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}

V is the volume of spherical shaped asteroid, V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3

r^3=\dfrac{3M}{4\pi \rho}

r^3=\dfrac{3\times 10^{17}\ kg}{4\pi \times 4000\ kg/m^3}

r^3=\sqrt{5.96\times 10^{12}}

r = 2441311.12 m

Diameter = 2 × radius

d = 4882622.24 m

or

d=4.88\times 10^6\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

PLS ANSWER FAST WILL GIVE BRAINLY!!!! ANSWER ONLY IF YOU KNOW!!!!
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The nucleus has an overall positive charge as it contains the protons. Every atom has no overall charge (neutral). This is because they contain equal numbers of positive protons and negative electrons. These opposite charges cancel each other out making the atom neutral.

A car travels at a constant velocity of 20.0 meters/second for 15 seconds. What is the power of the car if the initial force app
Zielflug [23.3K]
Work done by the force = Force x displacement. Power = work done/time = F.s/t = F.u.t/t = F.u = 95 x 20 = 1900J.                                                                                                                                                                                               {S=ut because acceleration is zero since car is moving at constant velocity}.

A motorcycle of mass 100 kilograms slowly rolls off the edge of a cliff and falls for three seconds before reaching the bottom o
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

C) 3,000 kg m/s

Explanation:

We can consider the horizontal velocity of the motorcycle to be zero, since it rolls off the edge of the cliff very slowly. So, we only need to find the vertical velocity at the time of the impact with the ground.

The vertical velocity of the motorcycle at time t is given by (free-fall motion):

v(t)=v_0 -gt

where

v_0=0 is the initial vertical velocity (zero, since the motorcycle is not moving)

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time

Since the motorcycle hits the ground after t = 3 seconds, we have

v(3 s)=0-(9.8 m/s^2)(3 s)=-29.4 m/s

And since we know its mass, m=100 kg, we can find its momentum:

p=mv=(100 kg)(-29.4 m/s)=-2940 kg m/s \cdot -3000 kg m/s

and the negative sign simply means downward direction.

When one observes the phase of matter of water, one observes a property of matter.
FromTheMoon [43]

Water is a very unique substance because it can exist in all three phases of matter (solid, liquid, gas) within the normal temperature ranges found on Earth. When one observes the phase of matter of water, one observes a property of matter.
