Answer:

c)Tidal forces from the planet prevent them from accreting.

Explanation:

According to the Roche limit and Hill spheres limit Saturn's rings are too close to the planet. This causes the tidal forces to tear the particles i.e., accretion will not start.

This can be even noticed in the rings itself. The C ring of Saturn which is closer to the planet has unclumped particles while in the B ring you can observe clumping.

Carol drops a stone in a mine shaft 122.5 metres deep.How
Verizon [17]

Answer:

 T = 5.36 s

Explanation:

given,

depth of the mine shaft = 122.5 m

speed of the sound = 340 m/s

time taken  = ?

time taken by the stone to reach at the bottom

using equation of motion

s = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

initial speed , u = 0 m/s

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2s}{g}}

t = \sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 122.5}{9.8}}

       t = 5 s

time taken by the sound to travel

    d =v x t

 t = \dfrac{d}{v}

 t = \dfrac{122.5}{340}

    t = 0.36 s

total time taken for the sound to reach carol after dropping the stone

T = 5 + 0.36

 T = 5.36 s

The stopping sight distance for a car traveling at 50 mph is 461 ft (including both perception-reaction distance and braking dis
Ivan

Answer:

2.08 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Speed,v=50mph=73.3ft/s

1 mile=5280 feet

1 hour=3600 s

Distance,d=461 ft

t=2.5 s

v'=60 mph=88 ft/s

We have to find the perception reaction time.

Perception reaction distance=d_p=vt=73.3\ti es 2.5=183.25 feet

d_p=d'_p

d'_p=v't

t'=\frac{183.25}{88}=2.08 s
