scoundrel [369]
The answer is D) absorb most of the light that falls on them

A blackbody is an object that absorbs most (theoretically all) of the light that falls on it. Stars are called black bodies because they demonstrate something close to this property. Why do they appear white and not black? As black body radiators heat up, they slowly turn from black to grey to white, according to the human eye. Since stars are incredibly hot, they appear white to us.

Suppose that an asteroid traveling straight toward the center of the earth were to collide with our planet at the equator and bu
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

\frac{1}{10}M

Explanation:

To apply the concept of <u>angular momentum conservation</u>, there should be no external torque before and after

As the <u>asteroid is travelling directly towards the center of the Earth</u>, after impact ,it <u>does not impose any torque on earth's rotation,</u> So angular momentum of earth is conserved

⇒I_{1} \times W_{1} =I_{2} \times W_{2}

  • I_{1} is the moment of interia of earth before impact
  • W_{1} is the angular velocity of earth about an axis passing through the center of earth before impact
  • I_{2} is moment of interia of earth and asteroid system
  • W_{2} is the angular velocity of earth and asteroid system about the same axis

let  W_{1}=W

since \text{Time period of rotation}∝\frac{1}{\text{Angular velocity}}

⇒ if time period is to increase by 25%, which is \frac{5}{4} times, the angular velocity decreases 25% which is \frac{4}{5}  times

therefore W_{1} = \frac{4}{5} \times W_{1}

I_{1}=\frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2}(moment of inertia of solid sphere)

where M is mass of earth

           R is radius of earth

I_{2}=\frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2}+M_{1}\times R^{2}

(As given asteroid is very small compared to earth, we assume it be a particle compared to earth, therefore by parallel axis theorem we find its moment of inertia with respect to axis)

where M_{1} is mass of asteroid

⇒ \frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2} \times W_{1}=}(\frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2}+ M_{1}\times R^{2})\times(\frac{4}{5} \times W_{1})

\frac{1}{2} \times M\times R^{2}= (\frac{2}{5} \times M\times R^{2}+ M_{1}\times R^{2})

M_{1}\times R^{2}= \frac{1}{10} \times M\times R^{2}

⇒M_{1}=}\frac{1}{10} \times M

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

If there was no air resistance

Explanation:

We know that free fall is a unique motion in which gravity only works on one object. Objects that are said to be free-falling do not experience a significant force of air resistance; They come under the sole effect of gravity. Under such conditions, all objects fall under the same acceleration, regardless of their mass.
