Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

It is widely believed among the space scientist that Asteroids and comets are the remains of the material that has formed our solar system. By studying Asteroids and comets can get information pre era of our solar system, because the asteroids came being at the start of the solar system. The chemical composition, the size and the process of formation of proto stellar nebula. The impact of collision of asteroid on Earth lead to the extinction of Dinosaurs. Previously it was believed that water come on Earth because of comets, but later proved that water come into being on Earth because of Asteroids.

Marrrta [24]

Our values can be defined like this,

m = 65kg

v = 3.5m / s

d = 0.55m

The problem can be solved for part A, through the Work Theorem that says the following,

W = \Delta KE

Where

KE = Kinetic energy,

Given things like that and replacing we have that the work is given by

W = Fd

and kinetic energy by

\frac {1} {2} mv ^ 2

So,

Fd = \frac {1} {2} m ^ 2

Clearing F,

F = \frac {mv ^ 2} {2d}

Replacing the values

F = \frac {(65) (3.5)} {2 * 0.55}

F = 723.9N

B) The work done by the wall is zero since there was no displacement of the wall, that is d = 0.

A marble is flicked off the edge of a table. The motion of the marble follows a parabolic path.
dem82 [27]

When marble is flicked off the edge of a table then the at the instant it will move off the table the velocity is horizontal while due to force of gravitation the marble will start accelerating downwards.

So here we will say that the velocity of marble will remain constant through out the motion in X direction as there is no force in that direction

While in Y direction the marble will have gravitational force due to which marble will accelerate downwards

So the path of the marble will be parabolic path

hence the correct answer will be

<em>A. </em>

<em>Only one continuous force is acting on the marble.</em>

navik [9.2K]
Hello! 

The kind of gas cloud that is most likely to give birth to stars is a cold, dense gas cloud.

Stars are formed in giant molecular clouds, called "star nurseries". These are regions with molecular Hydrogen, Helium, and little amounts of other elements. These are cold and dense regions, and the gas cloud collapses, forming a protostar. The protostar gradually heats, powering nuclear reactions in its center, which increases the temperature even more and giving birth to a star. 

Have a nice day!
