Answer:

Interstellar Dust

Explanation:

In the solar system Interstellar dust is a type of cosmic dust and unlike Interstellar gas they have large dust particles enabling them to block visible light. Unlike smoke and fog, they contain large number of closely packed clumps of atoms and molecules

Answer:

interstellar dust

Explanation:

Dust particles interact with light through scattering and absorption. Reducing the amount of starlight received

The colour of the sky during the day is blue, because the blue light is scattered by atmosphere particles. The increased path length causes the change of colour of sun light . This is due to dust grains in the atmosphere, a similar process happens with interstellar dust

A window washer is standing on a scaffold supported by a vertical rope at each end. The scaffold welghs 198 N and is 3.2 m long.

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

$T_2 = 309 N$

$T_1 = 489 N$

Explanation:

As we know that total tension in both the ropes is counter balancing the weight of scaffold and worker both

so here we will have

$T_1 + T_2 = (m + M)g$

now we have

$T_1 + T_2 = 198 + 600 = 798 N$

now we also know that net torque due to both tension force in the string with respect to the position of worker must be zero so that platform will remain in equilibrium and horizontal in position

so here we will have

$T_1(1.12) + (198)(1.6 - 1.12) = T_2(3.2 - 1.12)$

$T_1+ 84.86 = 1.86 T_2$

now from above two equations we will have

$(1.86 T_2 - 84.86) + T_2 = 798$

$T_2 = 309 N$

also we have

$T_1 = 489 N$

Why do planets orbit the sun (why don't they crash into the sun)?

Jobisdone [24]

Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as we now understand Earth's gravity pulls down anything that isn't held up by some other force
