<h2>Answers:</h2>

<u>The possible effects on the earth will be</u><u> 1) No light during night 2) No tides</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

As we know that tides are caused by the differential gravitational force on the equatorial regions by the moon. So if the Moon escapes from Earth, the main effect would be the lack of tides on Earth The region closer to the Moon experiences more gravitational force than the region on Earth away from the Moon. Other effects will be no more Moon to light up the night sky and no more solar eclipses.

In Figure 10-1, if the force exerted on a 3.0-kg backpack that is initally at rest is 20.0 N and the distance it acts over is 0.
pshichka [43]
I'm going to assume this is over a horizontal distance. You know from Newton's Laws that F=ma --> a = F/m. You also know from your equations of linear motion that v^2=v0^2+2ad. Combining these two equations gives you v^2=v0^2+2(F/m)d. We can plug in the given values to get v^2=0^2+2(20/3)0.25. Solving for v we get v=1.82 m/s!

Which observational tool helped astronomers Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson discover the
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

A radio telescope helped the astronomers discover the CMB.

Explanation:

  • Penzias and Wilson while experimenting with a radio telescope in 1964, accidentally discovered the radiation that exists universally also known as the CMB.
  • This was used to support the "Big Bang Theory" and not the "Steady State Theory"
  • CMB is the faint cosmic radiation that fills up the universe. It provides important data for understanding early universe.
  • This data tells us about the composition of the universe and its age which raises new questions about the universe.

Answer:

D) 735 J(oules)

Explanation:

Work is defined as force * distance

Force is defined as mass * acceleration

Given a mass of 15 kg and a gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s² since the box is being lifted up, the force being applied to the box is 15 kg * 9.8 m/s² = 147 N

Since the distance is 5 meters, the work done is 147 N * 5 m = 735 N/m = 735 J, making D the correct answer.

A bicycle tire of a radius of 0.44 m has a piece of gum stuck on its rim. What is the angle through which the tire rotates when
Karolina [17]

Based on the calculations, the angle through which the tire rotates is equal to 4.26 radians and 244.0 degrees.

<h3>How to calculate the angle?</h3>

In Physics, the distance covered by an object in circular motion can be calculated by using this formula:

S = rθ

<u>Where:</u>

  • r is the radius of a circular path.
  • θ is the angle measured in radians.
  • S is the distance.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

1.87 = 0.44 × θ

θ = 1.87/0.44

θ = 4.26 radians.

Next, we would convert this value in radians to degrees:

θ = 4.26 × 180/π

θ = 4.26 × 180/3.142

θ = 244.0 degrees.
