Two objects of the same mass are on two different planets. Planet A has a force of gravity that is weaker than that of planet B.

How will the weights of the objects compare to each other?
The weights of the objects will be the same.
The weight of the object on planet A will be greater than the weight of the object on planet B.
The weight of the object on planet A will be less than the weight of the object on planet B.
This cannot be determined without knowing the actual mass of the objects.

C) The weight of the object on planet A will be less than the weight of the object on planet B.


This happened because: when gravitational pull of a planet is weak, an object will weigh less as a result of less gravity forcing it down to the ground.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

There is no change in gravitational force based on the sizes remaining the same. If there was a change in gravitational force the orbits of all planets would change.

Does a spherical bubble of air in a volume of water act to converge or to diverge light passing through it?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

diverge light

Explanation:

The refractive index of water is greater than that of air which means that water is more denser than air and also air is optically rarer than water.

Thus,

When the beam of the light is incident from the air to the bubble which contains air, the light bends away from the normal and then the light travels from air to water and bend towards the normal. Thus, the light is first bend away from the normal and then towards the normal which means that the bubble has diverging nature. The light will likely to diverge.

Two particles are traveling through space. At time t the first particle is at the point (−1 + t, 4 − t, −1 + 2t) and the second
Pie

Answer:

Yes, the paths of the two particles cross.

Location of path intersection = ( 1 , 2 , 3)

Explanation:

In order to find the point of intersection, we need to set both locations equal to one another. It should be noted however, that the time for each particle can vary as we are finding the point where the <u>paths</u> meet, not the point where the particles meet themselves.

So, we can name the time of the first particle T_F ,  and the time of the second particle T_S.

Setting the locations equal, we get the following equations to solve for T_F and T_S:

(-1 + T_F) = (-7 + 2T_S)                     Equation 1

(4 - T_F) = (-6 + 2T_S)                        Equation 2

(-1 + 2T_F) = (-1 + T_S)                     Equation 3

Solving these three equations simultaneously we get:

T_F = 2 seconds

T_S = 4 seconds

Since, we have an answer for when the trajectories cross, we know for a fact that they indeed do cross.

The point of crossing can be found by using the value of T_F or T_S in the location matrices. Doing this for the first particle we get:

Location of path intersection = ( -1 + 2 , 4 - 2 , -1 + 2(2) )

Location of path intersection = ( 1 , 2 , 3)

The amount of movement of the particles depends on the amount of _________ acting on them and their relationship to other atoms.
Liula [17]

Answer: The amount of movement of the particles depends on the amount of <u>force</u> acting on them and their relationship to other atoms.

Explanation:

The inter-atomic force determines the inter-atomic distance which governs the amount of movement of the particles.

For example in solids, the inter-atomic force is stronger and hence, the distance between any atoms is very very small which restricts the movement of the particles. On the other hand, in case of liquids and gases, the inter-atomic forces are not very strong and there is more distance between the atoms which allows free movement of particles.

If a train travels 500 kilometers from Stockholm to
o-na [289]

Hello,

Average speed is total distance divided by total time. From the problem, our total distance is given as 500 kilometers and given time is 5 hours. Therefore, the average speed is:

\displaystyle{v_\text{average}=\sum_{i=1}^n \dfrac{s_i}{t_i}}\\\\\displaystyle{v=\dfrac{500\ \text{km}}{5 \ \text{h}}}\\\\\displaystyle{v=100 \ \text{km/h}}

Therefore, the average speed is 100 km/h. Please let me know if you have any questions!
