Describe how impacts between objects in the solar system have helped create notable features in the solar system such as craters

When 'The big bang' happened lots of large pieces of molten rock was flying around the solar system. As the rocks crashed together they got bigger and as the got bigger they attracted more rocks. Some scientists think that a large piece of molten rock hit the still developing Earth and created the Moon. This impact also caused the Earths angled spin. The Moon got trapped in Earth's orbit and has stayed ever since. Small astroids have hit the Moon causing craters. The Earth doesn't get hit as much because of our thicker atmosphere. Hope this helps!

List the 3 types of collisions that occur when your vehicle hits an object.
koban [17]

These collisions are: "a Vehicle Collision, a Human Collision, Internal Collision." A vehicle collision is a collision that involves two or more vehicles and is when the vehicles collide against each other creating a unbalanced force since how the force comes from opposite directions. A human collision would involve a vehicle and a human which would also be a unbalanced force but the human wouldn't have much affect of it's speed. A internal collision is when something happens inside the vehicle which decreases, or increases the vehicles speed.

Hope this helps!

You have a spring-loaded air rifle. When it is loaded, the spring is compressed 0.3 m and has a spring constant of 150 N/m. In j
Feliz [49]

The potential energy of the spring is 6.75 J

The elastic potential energy stored in the spring is given by the equation:

E= \frac{1}{2} kx^2

where;

k is the spring constant

x is the compression/stretching of the string

In this problem, we have the spring as follows:

k = 150 N/m is the spring constant

x = 0.3 m is the compression

Substituting in the equation, we get

E=\frac{1}{2} (150) (0.3)^2

E=6.75J

Therefore. the elastic potential energy stored in the spring is 6.75J .

"Two long parallel wires 24.0 cm apart carry currents of 3.0 A and 8.0 A in the same direction. How far from the wire carrying 3
avanturin [10]

Answer:

6.5454 m

Explanation:

Let the distance from the wire carrying 3 A current is x

Then the distance from the the carrying current 8 A is 24-x

We know that magnetic field due to long wire is given by B=\frac{\mu _0i}{2\pi r}

It is given that magnetic field is zero at some distance so

\frac{\mu _0i_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu _0i_2}{2\pi (24-x)}

Here i_1=3\ A \ and\  i_2=8\ A

So \frac{3}{x}=\frac{8}{24-x}=6.5454\ m
