Answer:
<em>No, a rigid body cannot experience any acceleration when the resultant force acting on the body is zero.</em>
Explanation:
If the net force on a body is zero, then it means that all the forces acting on the body are balanced and cancel out one another. This sate of equilibrium can be static equilibrium (like that of a rigid body), or dynamic equilibrium (that of a car moving with constant velocity)
For a body under this type of equilibrium,
ΣF = 0 ...1
where ΣF is the resultant force (total effective force due to all the forces acting on the body)
For a body to accelerate, there must be a force acting on it. The acceleration of a body is proportional to the force applied, for a constant mass of the body. The relationship between the net force and mass is given as
ΣF = ma ...2
where m is the mass of the body
a is the acceleration of the body
Substituting equation 2 into equation 1, we have
0 = ma
therefore,
a = 0
this means that<em> if the resultant force acting on a rigid body is zero, then there won't be any force available to produce acceleration on the body.</em>

<h2>
a)Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun is 274.21 m/s²</h2><h2>b)
Factor of increase in weight is 27.95</h2>
Explanation:
a) Acceleration due to gravity

Here we need to find acceleration due to gravity of Sun,
G = 6.67259 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²
Mass of sun, M = 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg
Radius of sun, r = 6.957 x 10⁸ m
Substituting,

Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun = 274.21 m/s²
b) Acceleration due to gravity in earth = 9.81 m/s²
Ratio of gravity = 274.21/9.81 = 27.95
Weight = mg
Factor of increase in weight = 27.95
During the winter, the Northern Hemisphere tilted away from the sun, receiving solar radiation at more of an angle. <u>This results in colder temperatures and more extreme temperature changes.</u>
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Large mirrors are easier to build than large lenses.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>Reflector telescopes have a number of advantages as compared to refracting telescopes and other types of telescopes. </u></em>
- <em><u>Reflector telescopes do not suffer from chromatic aberration because all wavelengths will reflect off the mirror in the same way. The support for the objective mirror is all along the back side so they can be made very large.</u></em>
- Additionally, reflector telescopes are cheaper to make than refractors of the same size. Also since in reflector telescopes light is reflecting off the objective, rather than passing through it, only one side of the reflector telescope's objective needs to be perfect.
