An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid C and 581 km from the center of asteroid
serg [7]

Answer:B

Explanation:

Given

Distance of astronaut From asteroid x is r_x=140 km

Distance of astronaut From asteroid Y is r_y=581 km

Suppose M,M_x,M_y be the masses of Astronaut , asteroid X and Y

If the astronaut is in equilibrium then net gravitational force on it is zero

F_x=F_y

\frac{GMM_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{GMM_y}{r_y^2}

cancel out the common terms we get

\frac{M_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{M_y}{r_y^2}

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{r_x}{r_y})^2

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{140}{581})^2

\frac{M_x}{M_y}=0.05806\approx 0.0581

What is static electricity
navik [9.2K]

Static electricity is electricity produced locally that does not flow. It is produced by electrons being rubbed off one object and collecting on another. It cannot flow through a wire like the electricity in your home.  

Example:  

1) Rub a balloon on your hair and it will stick to the wall. The balloon rubs electrons off your hair and picks up a negative charge. Your hair, in turn, is left with a positive charge. You may even notice your hair has "static" and is standing out from your head.  

2) Comb your hair with a plastic comb then use it to pick up small pieces of paper. The comb picks up electrons from your hair and becomes negatively charged. It uses this charge to attract the pieces of paper.  

3) Rub your slippered feet on the carpet and then touch something metal like a door knob. The "shock" you feel is static electricity. You pick up electrons from the carpet and discharge them on to the door knob.

A student uses a spring to launch a marble vertically in the air. The mass of the marble is
Fed [463]

Answer:

the maximum height reached by the marble is 11.84 m.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the marble, m = 0.02 kg

extension of the string, x = 0.08 m

force applied to the string, F = 58 N

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

elastic potential energy = gravitational potential energy

¹/₂fx = mgh

h = \frac{Fx}{2mg} \\\\h = \frac{58 \ \times \ 0.08}{2 \ \times \ 0.02 \ \times \ 9.8} \\\\h = 11.84 \ m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the marble is 11.84 m.

A ray of light traveling in air is incident on the flat surface of a piece of glass at an angle of 65.9° with respect to the nor
stich3 [128]

Answer:

n_{glass} = 1.6

Explanation:

\theta _{i} = Angle of incidence = 65.9°

\theta _{r} = Angle of refraction = 34.8°

n_{air} = Index of refraction of air = 1

n_{glass} = Index of refraction of glass = ?

Using Snell's law

n_{air} Sin\theta _{i} = n_{glass} \theta _{r}

(1) Sin65.9 =  n_{glass} Sin34.8

n_{glass} = 1.6
