What are the difficulties with the capture hypothesis of the Moon’s origin?

Physics
1 answer:
Lisa [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

No collision or altered trajectory

Similar percentage of oxygen isotopes

Explanation:

Capture hypothesis states that the Earth captured the moon. This is highly unlikely as such interactions of this type of bodies leads to a collision or their trajectories are altered. The percentage of the oxygen isotopes such as 16O, 17O and 18O in the Moon's basalts are almost identical with Earth. While meteorites have different percentage of oxygen isotopes.

Currently the accepted hypothesis is the  giant-impact hypothesis.

a man hits a gold ball (0.205kg) which accelerates at a rate of 20.0 m/s squared. what is the amount of force acted on the ball
Schach [20]

Answer:

<h2>4.1 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 0.205 × 20

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.1 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

At an instant when a soccer ball is in contact with the foot of the player kicking it, the horizontal or x component of the ball
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Magnitude of net force will be 432.758 N  

Explanation:

We have given x component of acceleration a_x=760m/sec^2

And vertical component of acceleration  a_y=770m/sec^2

Mass of the ball m = 0.40 kg

So net acceleration a=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2}=\sqrt{760^2+770^2}=1081.896m/sec^2

Now according to second law of motion

Force = mass × acceleration

So F = 0.40×1081.896 = 432.758 N
