Answer:

Meteorites have comparatively huge size than the size of the meteors

The meteorites are originated as the debris from an a comet, asteroid, or meteoroid due to a heavy impact. Whereas, the meteors are the dust formed from an asteroids.

Explanation:

The difference between the meteorites from the meteors is that, the meteorites have comparatively huge size than the size of the meteors. Also, the meteorites are capable enough to survive moving through the earth's atmosphere. while the meteors burns up due to heat produced by the friction while moving in the earth's atmosphere.

The meteorites are originated as the debris from an a comet, asteroid, or meteoroid due to a heavy impact. Whereas, the meteors are the dust formed from an asteroids.

A negative charge of - 8.0 x 10^-6 C exerts an attractive force of 12 N on a second charge that is

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

<h2>Magnitude of the second charge is $-4.17*10^{-7}C$ </h2>

Explanation:

According to columbs law;

F = $kq1q2/r^{2}$

F is the attractive or repulsive force between the charges = 12N

q1 and q2 are the charges

let q1 = - 8.0 x 10^-6 C

q2=?

r is the distance between the charges = 0.050m

k is the coulumbs constant =9*10⁹ kg⋅m³⋅s⁻⁴⋅A⁻²

On substituting the given values

12 = 9*10⁹*( - 8.0 x 10^-6)q2/0.050²

Cross multiplying

$0.03=9*10^{9}* -8.0*10^{-6} q2\\0.03 = -72*10^{3} q2\\q2 = \frac{0.03}{ -72*10^{3}} \\q2 = -4.17*10^{-7}C$

Q3. You throw a ball into the air, it reaches a certain height and then comes back to you.

Grace [21]

The If a car is going round a curve , there is an acceleration because the direction of the velocity changes.

<h3>What is the direction of the velocity?</h3>

Now we know that if you throw the ball upwards, the motion is in opposite direction to gravity thus the ball is experiencing deceleration and the speed decreases. The velocity decreases and the acceleration is negative.

If the ball is coming down, then the ball is accelerated thus it speeds up and the direction of the acceleration is positive.

If a car is going round a curve, the vehicle is accelerating because the direction of the velocity changes even if its amount remains constant.

When a board is moving down a hill at 2 ms-1, it is experiencing an acceleration because the motion is in the same direction as gravity.

If a car is coming to a stop at a point, it experiences a deceleration and not an acceleration since the change of velocity with time is negative as the car comes to rest.

Four different resistors have various amounts of electric current flowing through them. Given the values of current I and resist

Artemon [7]

You did not provide the options. However, the options are

I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

I = 9.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 3.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

Answer:

The order of the resistors from the highest to the lowest is:

I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

I = 9.0, R= 2.0ohms

I = 3.0, R= 2.0 ohms

Explanation:

ohm's law states that voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it. V = IR

Based on this formula, the voltages in each of the resistors are calculated below from the highest to the lowest

For I = 8.0, R= 8.0 ohms

V = 8 * 8 =64 volts

For I = 6.0, R= 4.0 ohms

V = 6 * 4 =24 volts

For I = 9.0, R= 2.0 ohms

V = 9 * 2 =18 volts

For I = 3.0, R= 2.0 ohms

V = 3 * 2 =6 volts

An object starts at rest. Its acceleration over 30 seconds is shown in the graph below:

ddd [48]

Answer:

The instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds is 12.5 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

An object starts at rest. Its acceleration over 30 seconds.

We need to calculate the instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds

We know that,

Area under the acceleration -time graph gives speed.

According to figure,

$speed = area\ of\ tringle$

$speed=\dfrac{1}{2}\times b\times h$

$speed =\dfrac{1}{2}\times5\times5$

$speed-12.5\ m/s$

Hence, The instantaneous speed of the object after the first five seconds is 12.5 m/s.

Which is not one of the forms that energy can take?

sladkih [1.3K]

Question 1: Newtonian. It refers to work of Newton. Light, electrical and chemical energies are different forms of energy.
Question 2: Nuclear power plants. Heat , Sunlight and energy in atoms are not nuclear energies.
Question 3: Batteries. the other two are examples of mechanical energy. But batteries are examples for chemical energy.
