How are dwarf planets different from true planets?

Answer:

The only difference between a planet and a dwarf planet is the area surrounding each celestial body. A dwarf planet has not cleared the area around its orbit, while a planet has.

Explanation:

the three criteria of the IAU for a full-sized planet are: It is in orbit around the Sun. It has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape). It has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit .

A 2.0-kg laptop sits on the horizontal surface of the seat of a car moving at 8.0 m/s. The driver starts slowing down to stop. F

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: $32.65\ m$

Explanation:

Given

mass of laptop m=2 kg

The velocity of car u=8 m/s

The coefficient of static friction is $\mu_s=0.4$

The coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu_k=0.2$

As the car is moving, so the coefficient of kinetic friction comes into play

deceleration offered by friction $\mu_kg=0.2\times 9.8\ m/s^2$

Using the equation of motion $v^2-u^2=2as\\$

insert the values

$0^2-8^2=2(-0.2\times 9.8)s\\\\s=\dfrac{64}{1.96}\\\\s=32.65\ m$

You throw a ball upward with an initial speed of 4.3 m/s. When it returns to your hand 0.88 s later, it has the same speed in th

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The acceleration is -9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Hi there!!

When you throw a ball upward, there is a downward acceleration that makes the ball return to your hand. This acceleration is produced by gravity.

The average acceleration is calculated as the variation of the speed over time. In this case, we know the time and the initial and final speed. Then:

acceleration = final speed - initial speed/ elapsed time

acceleration = -4.3 m/s - 4.3 m/s / 0.88 s

acceleration = -9.8 m/s²

In Part 6.2.2, you will determine the wavelength of the laser by shining the laser beam on a "diffraction grating", a set of reg

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

λ = 2042 nm

Explanation:

given data

screen distance d = 11 m

spot s = 4.5 cm = 4.5 × $10^{-2}$ m

separation L = 0.5 mm = 0.5 × $10^{-3}$ m

to find out

what is λ

solution

we will find first angle between first max and central bright

that is tan θ = s/d

tan θ = 4.5 × $10^{-2}$ / 11

θ = 0.234

and we know diffraction grating for max

L sinθ = mλ

here we know m = 1 so put all value and find λ

L sinθ = mλ

0.5 × $10^{-3}$ sin(0.234) = 1 λ

λ = 2042.02 × $10^{-9}$ m

λ = 2042 nm

If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the object's velocity is a linear function of time.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

$F=mkv$

Explanation:

Given that

$v = v_i - kx$

We know that acceleration a given as

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

$v = v_i - kx$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{dv_i}{dt}-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

We know that

$F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

$F=-mk\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$F=-mkv$

So the magnitude of force F

$F=mkv$
