It is observed that the number of asteroids (or meteoroids) of a given diameter is roughly inversely proportional to the square

of the diameter.
Part A

Assuming a density of 3000 kg/m3 and approximating the actual distribution of asteroids and meteoroids as a single 1000-km body (Ceres), one hundred 100-km bodies, 10 thousand 10-kmbodies, and so on, calculate the total mass in the form of 1000-km bodies.

Part B

Calculate the total mass in the form of 100-km bodies.

Part C

Calculate the total mass in the form of 10-km bodies.

Part D

Calculate the total mass in the form of 1-km bodies.

Answer:

(a) M =  =1.57 *10²¹kg

(b) M =  =1.57 *10²⁰kg

(c) M =  =1.57 *10¹⁹kg

(d) M =  =1.57 *10¹⁸kg

Explanation:

(a) For 1000km body, diameter D = 1000km = 1,000,000 m

and N = (1000/D)² = (1000/1000km)² =  1

substituting into the formula, we have

M = 1 * 4/3 π*3000*[1000000/2]³

   =1.57 *10²¹kg

(b) For 100km body, diameter D = 100km = 100,000 m

and N = (1000/D)² = (1000/100km)² =  100

substituting into the formula, we have

M = 1 * 4/3 π*3000*[100000/2]³

   =1.57 *10²⁰kg

(C) For 10km body, diameter D = 10km = 10,000 m

and N = (1000/D)² = (1000/10km)² =  100

substituting into the formula, we have

M = 1 * 4/3 π*3000*[10000/2]³

   =1.57 *10¹⁹kg

(C) For 1km body, diameter D = 1km = 1,000 m

and N = (1000/D)² = (1000/1km)² =  100

substituting into the formula, we have

M = 1 * 4/3 π*3000*[1000/2]³

   =1.57 *10¹⁸kg

A body weighs 10newton in air and 9.5 in water. How will it weigh in alchohol if density 0.8gcm-³​
Katen [24]

Answer:

The weight of object in alcohol is, W₀ = 9.6 N

Explanation:

Given,

The weight of body in air, Wₐ = 10 N

The weight of the body in water, Wₓ = 9.5 N

The density of the alcohol, ρ = 0.8 g/cm³

                                                = 800 kg/m³

The weight of body in water = weight of object in air - weight of water displaced

                        9.5 N = 10 N - weight of water displaced

                       Weight of water displaced = 0.5 N

The mass of the displaced water, m = 0.5 / 9.8

                                                            = 0.051 kg

Therefore the volume of the water displaced,

                                              V = m / ρ

                                                  = 0.051 / 1000

                                                   = 5.1 x 10⁻⁵ m³

<em>The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of alcohol displaced</em>

Therefore, the mass of the alcohol displaced, = V x ρ

                                                                             = 5.1 x 10⁻⁵ x 800

                                                                             = 0.0405 kg

The weight of the alcohol displaced, w = 0.0405 x 9.8

                                                                    = 0.4 N

Therefore,

The weight of body in alcohol = weight of object in air - weight of alcohol displaced

                             W₀ = W - w

                                    = 10 N - 0.4 N

                                     = 9.6 N

Hence, the weight of object in alcohol is, W₀ = 9.6 N

Which illustration represent the substance at a higher temperature? Explain.
mamaluj [8]

The addition of heat energy to a system always causes the temperature of that system to increase. This is always true because you are adding heat of a substance to increase  its temperature. For example, you are going to drink a cup of coffee. And you wanted it hot to boost your attention. So you have to use hot water. In order for your water to become hot or warm, you need boil it in a kettle. Note that you are going to use an electric stove. The electric stove gets it energy from the source giving it a hotter temperature to the water in the kettle. You are applying heat energy to warm the water. So, the statement is true.

Which of the following is the same in all frames of reference?
Ksju [112]
The correct option is B.
The length of an object, the mass of an object and the rate of time passage for an object can change depending on the situation which the object is subject to. For instance in space, the mass and the velocity of an object usually change. But, the value of the speed of light in the space is the same for all observers regardless of the motion of an object, that is, the speed of light is a constant.<span />

Q C Many people assume air resistance acting on a moving object will always make the object slow down. It can, however, actually
OLga [1]

$E_i-E_f=-17.94 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~J}-\left(-18.30 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~J}\right)=3.60 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~J}$.

The most effective forces on the object are the backward force of air resistance relatively very small in magnitude, and the force of gravity. Because the spiral path of the satellite is not perpendicular to the gravitational force, one element of the gravitational force pulls forward. at the satellite to do fantastic work & make its speed increase.

<h3>What is called gravitational force?</h3>

Gravity, additionally referred to as gravitation, is a force that exists amongst all material gadgets withinside the universe. For any objects or particles having nonzero mass, the force of gravity tends to draw them in the direction of each other. Gravity operates on objects of all sizes, from subatomic particles to clusters of galaxies.
