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

The index of refraction for water is about 4 3 . What happens as a beam of light travels from air into water?
hjlf

Answer:

Its speed decreases.

Explanation:

When light enters into water, its speed decreases (as well as its frequency). This is the reason why refraction (the bending of light when it changes media) occurs.

This can be proven mathematically.

Given that the refractive index of water is 4/3, we know that refractive index is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in another medium.

Therefore,

4/3 = (speed of light in vacuum) / (speed of light in water)

Speed of light in a vacuum is 3 * 10^8. Hence,

Speed of light in water is:

v = (3 * 10^8) / (4/3)

v = 2.25 * 10^8 m/s

As we can see, the speed of light decreases in water.

Describe what long sight is and how it is corrected with a lens
o-na [289]

If long sight means farsighted, then here's your answer:

Farsightedness is when the lens has difficulty focusing on nearby objects. Sufferers must squint to see the nearby objects. Reading, writing, and drawing for longer periods of time can cause eyestrain and headache.

Being farsighted can be corrected with prescription glasses or contact lenses or surgery.

The volume of the nucleus as compared to the volume of the atom is​
velikii [3]

The nucleus of an atom is about 10-15 m in size; this means it is about 10-5 (or 1/100,000) of the size of the whole atom. A good comparison of the nucleus to the atom is like a pea in the middle of a racetrack. (10-15 m is typical for the smaller nuclei; larger ones go up to about 10 times that.)
