The star Betelgeuse is about 600 light-years away.

If it explodes tonight, we won't know about it until 600 years from now. <em>(C)</em>

(Maybe it already has.  If it exploded any time after the year 1419, we have no way to know it yet.)

Answer:

C

Explanation:

It has to travel 600 light years before we would be able to observe the explosion.

If I = 2.0 A in the circuit segment shown below, what is the potential difference VB - VA?
Tom [10]

Answer:

10 V

Explanation:

The potential difference between two points is the amount of work required to carry a unit charge from one point to the other point. This would result in a potential difference between this two points.

The difference between the potential across two points B and A is V_{BA}=V_B-V_A

From the image attached:

V_B-V_A=10-10I+20\\\\But\ I = 2A,hence:\\\\V_B-V_A=10-10(2)+20\\\\V_B-V_A=10-20+20\\\\V_B-V_A=10\ V

If a ping pong ball and a golf ball are both moving in the same direction with the same amount of kinetic energy, the speed of t
Liono4ka [1.6K]

If the kinetic energy of each ball is equal to that of the other,
then

(1/2) (mass of ppb) (speed of ppb)² = (1/2) (mass of gb) (speed of gb)²

Multiply each side by 2:

      (mass of ppb) (speed of ppb)² = (mass of gb) (speed of gb)²

Divide each side by (mass of gb) and by (speed of ppb)² :

     (mass of ppb)/(mass of gb)  =  (speed of gb)²/(speed of ppb)²

Take square root of each side:

       √ (ratio of their masses)  =  ( 1 / ratio of their speeds)²

By trying to do this perfectly rigorously and elegantly, I'm also
using up a lot of space and guaranteeing that nobody will be
able to follow what I have written.  Let's just come in from the
cold, and say it the clear, easy way:

If their kinetic energies are equal, then the product of each
mass and its speed² must be the same number.

If one ball has less mass than the other one, then the speed²
of the lighter one must be greater than the speed² of the heavier
one, in order to keep the products equal.

The pingpong ball is moving faster than the golf ball.

The directions of their motions are irrelevant.

Help it’s multiple choice 11 through 15 please!
riadik2000 [5.3K]

1. • Here, force of gravity on the block = 20 N.

• Therefore, the normal force will also be the same, i.e., 20 N [According to Newton's Third Law, on every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction]

• The coefficient

u_{k} = 0.4

• Force of friction =

u_{k} \times  \: normal \:  \:  \: force \\  = 0.4 \times 20N \\  = 8N

• Hence, the force of sliding friction between the block and the ground is 8 N.

• So, it is option c. 8 N

2. The answer is option d. continue in the same direction with no change in speed.

We know, force = mass × acceleration. When force is 0, then acceleration will also be 0 since mass cannot be 0. So, there will be no change in speed.

3. It is option b. force that is required to give a one kilogram object the acceleration of 1 m/s^2.

Newton is the SI unit of force. As mentioned earlier, force = mass × acceleration. The SI unit of mass and acceleration is Kg and m/s^2 respectively.

So, 1 N = 1 Kg × 1 m/s^2.

4. It is d. not zero.

Acceleration is the change in speed. So, if the force is zero, then acceleration will not occur.

5. Force = 2 N

Acceleration of the object A = 2 m/s^2.

Acceleration of the object B = 1 m/s^2.

Therefore, mass of the object A = 2 N ÷ 2 m/s^2 = 1 Kg

And, mass of the object B = 2 N ÷ 1 m/s^2 = 2 Kg

So, the mass of object B is greater than that of object A.

Hence, the answer is option c. Object B has more mass.

Hope you could get an idea from here.
