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.

You walk for a speed of 1.1 m/s (meters per second) for 6.0 seconds and
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Average speed, As = 2.2 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve these types of problems we must remember that the average of the speeds is determined by dividing the distance over time.

With the first speed and the time of 6 [s] we can calculate the distance.

V = x/t

where:

x = distance [m]

V = velocity = 1.1 [m/s]

t = time = 6 [s]

x1 = V*t

X1 = 1.1*6

X1 = 6.6 [m]

Now with the second velocity and  6 [s], we can calculate the second distance.

X2 = 3.3*6

X2 = 19.8 [m]

Now we have to calculate the average speed. The total distance is x = x1 +x2

X = 19.8 + 6.6 = 26.4 [m]

and the total time is 12 [s]

Therefore:

As = 26.4/12

As = 2.2 [m/s]

Can you use a machine to gain both force and speed at the same time? explain.
crimeas [40]
Well, It rather depends on your definition of "machine." The normal physics set of simple machines - levers, pulleys, ramps all give you increased the force at the expense of reduced speed or increased the rate at the cost of reduced force. So, no - by definition a machine is an arrangement for multiplying one while paying the cost by reducing the other. You are looking at an example of the Conservation of Energy. One of the giant rules we are pretty sure cannot be violated.<span>
