Nora tied a string around a tennis ball, and then she swung it in a circle in front of her to demonstrate a planet orbiting the

Sun. She explained that her hand represented the Sun, the ball represented a planet, and the string kept the ball from leaving the "orbit" around her hand. Why doesn't the string work in the same way as gravity? A. The string holding the ball in orbit is a contact force; gravity is a noncontact force. B. The string only pulls one way; gravity pulls both ways. C. The string keeps the distance between the bodies the same; gravity makes the distance vary. D. There is no difference between the two systems.

<em>Choice-A </em>is a true statement. The string holding the ball in orbit is a contact force, whereas gravity is a non-contact force.

Choice-C is half-true.  The string keeps the distance between the bodies constant, but gravity doesn't "MAKE" the distance vary.

A 85-kg astronaut is stranded from his space shuttle. He throws a 1-kg hammer away from the shuttle with a velocity of 17 m/s. H
algol [13]

Answer:

0.2 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of astronaut, M = 85 Kg

mass of hammer, m = 1 Kg

velocity of hammer , v =17 m/s

speed of astronaut, v' = ?

initial speed of the astronaut and the hammer be equal to zero = ?

Using conservation of momentum

(M + m) V = M v' + m v

(M + m) x 0 = 85 x v' + 1 x 17

85 v' = -17

  v' = -0.2 m/s

negative sign represent the astronaut is moving in opposite direction of hammer.

Hence, the speed of the astronaut is equal to 0.2 m/s

8. The fact that voltage can be created by exerting force on a crystal is used in which type of sensor?
AfilCa [17]

Option C

The fact that voltage can be created by exerting force on a crystal is used in Knock sensor

<u>Explanation:</u>

Any knock to an engine exhibits as a little shake that is distinguished by the knock sensor. This sensor acts by altering the fluctuation to an electrical sign, which is later transferred to the processor mastering the ignition system.

There the variation in quake to the voltage sign modifies the timing improvements on the kindling. The knock sensor is placed on the engine base, cylinder cap or consumption manifold. This is because its purpose is to sense fluctuations affected by engine knock or explosion.
