We don't know.  It could be material that just couldn't condense
into a planet in that region. 

(In fact, the way the planets are arranged, it turns out that the
average distance from the sun to the center of the asteroid belt
is exactly where we would expect to find a planet.)

If the asteroids are actually material that failed to condense into a
planet, then the huge gravity of Jupiter might have been responsible
for keeping the material disturbed.

A car is traveling up a hill that is inclined at an angle θ above the horizontal. Determine the ratio of the magnitude of the no
padilas [110]

Explanation:

The weight of the car is equal to, W_c=m\times g...........(1)

Where

m is the mass of car

g is the acceleration due to gravity

The normal or vertical component of the force is, F_N=mg\ cos\theta

or

F_N=mg\ cos(13).............(2)

The horizontal component of the force is, F_H=mg\ sin\theta

Taking ratio of equation (1) and (2) as :

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=\dfrac{mg\ cos\theta}{mg}

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=cos(13)

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=0.97

or

\dfrac{F_N}{W_c}=\dfrac{97}{100}

Hence, this is the required solution.

A 3.0 kg box is sliding along a frictionless horizontal surface with a speed of 1.8 m/s when it encounters a spring. (a) Determi
krok68 [10]

Answer:

a) k = 2231.40 N/m

b) v = 0.491 m/s

Explanation:

Let k be the spring force constant , x be the compression displacement of the spring and v be the speed of the box.

when the box encounters the spring, all the energy of the box is kinetic energy:

the energy relationship between the box and the spring is given by:

1/2(m)×(v^2) = 1/2(k)×(x^2)

    (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

a) (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

                 k = [(m)×(v^2)]/(x^2)

                 k = [(3)×((1.8)^2)]/((6.6×10^-2)^2)

                 k = 2231.40 N/m

Therefore, the force spring constant is 2231.40 N/m

b) (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

             v^2 = [(k)(x^2)]/m

                 v =  \sqrt{ [(k)(x^2)]/m}

                 v = \sqrt{ [(2231.40)((1.8×10^-2)^2)]/(3)}

                    = 0.491 m/s
