Why are asteroids and comets important to our understanding of solar system history?

Physics
1 answer:
Alecsey [184]3 years ago
8 0

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.

Describe a scenario when you could use energy but not do any work.
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

When you don't move, you still use energy. This energy is called potential energy, or, stored energy.

When you don't move or do work, you can use energy.

What is your angular position 75 seconds after the wheel starts turning, measured counterclockwise from the top? Express your an
AveGali [126]

Complete Question

A Ferris wheel on a California pier is 27 m high and rotates once every 32 seconds in the counterclockwise direction. When the wheel starts turning, you are at the very top.

What is your angular position 75 seconds after the wheel starts turning, measured counterclockwise from the top? Express your answer as an angle between 0∘ and 360∘. Express your answer in degrees.

Answer:

\phi=123.75

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height h=27m

Period T=32sec

Time t=75sec

Generally the equation for angular velocity is mathematically given by

\omega=\frac{2 \pi}{T}

\omega=\frac{2 \pi}{32}

\omega=0.196rad/s

Therefore

\theta=\omega t

\theta=0.196rad/s*75sec

\theta=843.75 \textdegree

Therefore

\phi=\theta-2(360)

\phi=123.75

A negatively charged particle is moving to the right, directly above a wire have a current flowing to the right. In which direct
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

C) upward

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the right-hand rule.

First of all, we notice at the location of the negatively charged particle (above the wire), the magnetic field produced by the wire points out of the page (because the current is to the right, so by using the right hand, putting the thumb to the right (as the current) and wrapping the other fingers around it, we see that the direction of the field above the wire is out of the page).

Now we can apply the right hand rule to the charged particle:

- index finger: velocity of the particle, to the right

- middle finger: direction of the magnetic field, out of the page

- thumb: direction of the force, downward --> however, the charge is negative, so we must reverse the direction --> upward

Therefore, the direction of  the magnetic force is upward.
