OLga [1]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

There is less gravitational force in space.

Explanation:

Gravity doesn't exist as it does on Earth. Earth's gravity is as 6 times stronger as it is on the moon.

A beam oflight is reflected off a mirror. If the angle of incidence is 30 degrees, according to the Law of Reflection the angle
zaharov [31]

Answer:

30°

Explanation:

According to the second law of reflection, it States that the angle of incidence i is equal to the angle of reflection r.

The angle of incidence is known to be the angle between the incident ray and the normal.

The Angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected ray and the normal.

This normal ray is a ray that is perpendicular to the surface.

According to the question, if the beam of light is reflected off the surface and its angle of incidence is 30°, its angle of reflection will also be 30° i.e i=r = 30°

An 800 N man climbs 5 m up a ladder. How much gravitational potential energy does he gain?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

4000J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the man  = 800N

Height of ladder  = 5m

Unknown:

Gravitational potential energy gained  = ?

Solution:

The gravitational potential energy is due to the position of a body.

 Gravitational potential energy = weight x height

Now insert the parameters;

 Gravitational potential energy  = 800 x 5  = 4000J

Fossils are rare because certain conditions are needed to preserve an organism in order for it to fossilize, and those condition
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The least of the conditions that can result in fossilization would be <u>when an organism is a prey to several species.</u>

Fossils are remains or traces of organisms that have been geological preserved and a prey is an organism that is often hunted and serves as food to bigger organisms. <em>When an organism is eaten, the probability of it becoming a fossil becomes low. Unless such an organism is usually partially eaten by predators, there would not be any remains, let alone being fossilized.</em>

The correct option is D.

Which of the following statements concerning the nuclear force is false? O The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive. O
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

  • The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive.
  • The nuclear force is very weak and much smaller in relative magnitude than the electrostatic and gravitational forces.

Explanation:

  • Nuclear force is the strongest existing force in the nature.
  • It has the shortest range.
  • Its main function is to hold the subatomic particles together in nature.
  • The nuclear force is created  by the exchange of pi mesons between the nucleons of an atom, but for this exchange to happen the particles must be close to one another of the order of few femtometer.
  • At about 1 femtometer the nuclear force is very strongly attractive in nature but at distance greater than 2.5 femtometer it fades away.
  • The force becomes repulsive in nature at distance less than 0.7 femtometer.
  • This force holds the likely charged protons together in the nucleus.
