Many planets in our solar system (Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) have rings. If these rings are made of chunks of debris, why do they

form around the planet and not travel toward the Sun?​

Generally, rings form from moons, asteroids, or comets that have disintegrated due to a collision or because they got too close to their planet (Roche Limit). ... Most of the debris, however, will not have enough energy to overcome the planet's gravity and will remain in orbit around the planet.

65. The weight of a body when totally immersed in a liquid is 4.2N if he weight of the liquid displaced is 2.5N. Find the weight
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Given, Apparent weight(W₂)=4.2N

          Weight of liquid displaced (u)=2.5N

          Let weight of body in air = W₁

Solution,

             U=W₁-W₂

              W₁=4.2=2.5=6.7N

∴Weight of body in air is 6.7N

Two 800 cm^3 containers hold identical amounts of a monatomic gas at 20°C. Container A is rigid. Container B has a 100 cm^2 pis
Vikki [24]

Answer:

1) Final Temperature of the gas in A will be GREATER than the temperature in B

2) Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below

3) The Initial  pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4) the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

Explanation:

Given that;

Temperature = 20°C = 293 K

mass of piston = 10 kg

Area = 100cm³

Volume V = 800 cm³ = 0.8 L

ideal gas constant R = 8.3 J/K·mol

1)

Final Temperature of the gas in A will b GREATER than the temperature in B

2)

Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below,

3)

Initial  pressures in containers A and B

PV = nRT

P = RT/V

we substitute

P = (8.3 × 293) /  0.8

P = 2431.9 / 0.8

P = 3039.87 J/liters

Therefore, The Initial  pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4)

Given that;

power = 25 W

time t = 15s

the final volume of container B = ?

we know that;

work done = power × time

work done = 25 × 15 = 375

Also work done = P( V₂ - V₁ )

so we substitute

375 = 3039.87 ( V₂ - 0.8 )

( V₂ - 0.8 ) = 375 / 3039.87

V₂ - 0.8 = 0.12336

V₂ = 0.12336 + 0.8

V₂ = 0.92336 Litres

V₂ = 923.36 cm³

Therefore, the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

Why do you think a human needs only one egg at a time
babunello [35]
Because we can reproduce with just one and if more eggs were released, the female reproductive life (which is 40 years) would be shorter and so there would be less time for every female human to reproduce since the amount of eggs is limited. (Also fraternal twins come from 2 eggs released at the same time)
