Since the new distance is 3 times the old distance,
the new force is (1/3²) = 1/9th of the old force.
That's kind-of Choice-D, but I really don't like the way choice-D is worded.
"9 times smaller" is really pretty meaningless.
Answer:
D. Frozen water is less dense than liquid water.
Explanation:
Titanic sank in the North Atlantic Ocean in the year 1912. There were more than 2000 passengers on board from which about 1500 died.
Frozen water that is ice has less density than liquid water. The density of ice is 
and the density of the water is 
.
Due to this very slight difference in density, ice floats on water. Titanic, on the night of April 14, 1912, crashed into an iceberg around midnight which caused opening of 5 of its watertight compartments. The water filled into the ship and it eventually sank in.
The main component in a reflecting telescope is a mirror where the light will bounce off and is then focused into a smaller area. In contrast, a refracting telescope uses lenses that focus the light as it travels towards the other end.
Two different types of reflecting telescopes are:
1.Cassegrain reflector
2.Newtonian telescope
Explanation:
- The distinction between the two is in how they manipulate the incoming light in order to magnify the image. The main component in a reflecting telescope is a mirror where the light will bounce off and is then focused into a smaller area.
- Key advantage of reflecting telescopes is how big you can make them. With lenses, the maximum size is limited to about one meter, largely because of the problems stated above as well as the skyrocketing costs.
- The Newtonian telescope, also called the Newtonian reflector, is a type of reflecting telescope invented Sir Isaac Newton, using a concave primary mirror and a flat diagonal secondary mirror. The Newtonian telescope's simple design has made it very popular with amateur telescope makers.
- The Cassegrain reflector is a combination of a primary concave mirror and a secondary convex mirror, often used in optical telescopes and radio antennas, the main characteristic being that the optical path folds back onto itself, relative to the optical system's primary mirror entrance aperture.
Answer:
8.6 m
Explanation:
The motion of a soccer ball is a motion of a projectile, with a uniform motion along the horizontal (x-) direction and an accelerated motion along the vertical (y-) direction, with constant acceleration 
towards the ground (we take upward as positive direction, so acceleration is negative).
The initial velocity along the vertical direction is
Now we can consider the motion along the vertical direction only. the vertical velocity at time t is given by:
At the point of maximum height, 
, so we can find the time t at which the ball reaches the maximum height:
And now we can use the equation of motion along the y-axis to find the vertical position of the ball at t=1.33 s, which corresponds to the maximum height of the ball:
