Comets are divided into two types. Long-period comets are the comets that take more than two hundred years to finish an orbit throughout the Sun originate from the Oort Cloud.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The Oort Cloud has sufficient distance apart of the Sun than the Kuiper Belt, it seems that the Oort Cloud objects were made closer to the Sun than the Kuiper Belt things.
  • Long-period comets have highly eccentric orbits.
  • The Oort cloud is considered to own a large range commencing from among 2,000 and 5,000 AU to 50,000 AU.
  • The chemical makeup of long-period and short-period comets is quite alike.

Differences between Pressure and upthrust​
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Pressure is equal to the ratio of thrust to the area in contact. Upthrust is a force exerted by the fluids on an object placed in the fluid . Upthrust acts in upward direction.

The collision between a hammer and a nail can be considered to be approximately elastic. estimate the kinetic energy acquired by
Setler [38]

Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1 v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

now here we can say

m_1 = 10 g

v_{1i} = 0

m_2 = 550 g

v_{2i} = 3.5 m/s

now here we can say

10*0 + 550 * 3.5 = 10 v_{1f} + 550 v_{2f}

192.5 = v_{1f} + 55 v_{2f}

now by coefficient of restitution

for elastic collision we know that e = 1

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = e(v_{1i} - v_{2i})

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = 0 - 3.5

now by solving the two equation

56v_{2f} = 189

v_{2f} = 3.375 m/s

also we know that

v_{1f} = v_{2f} + 3.5 = 3.375 + 3.5 = 6.875 m/s

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s

Alisiya [41]
ONE CAN perform this by doing an ideal experiment
by creating an isothermal system
its like you supply heat to a body and that body is present at very low temperature the amount of heat you supply is equal to the amount of heat lost by that body due to difference in the temperature of the body and the surrounding. heating curve will be constant as there is no change in the internal energy of the system ..
