<u>Answer</u>:

The primary method by which the planets have been found around other stars in the galaxy is Kepler Space Telescope.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The primary method by which planets have been found around other stars in our beautiful Galaxy is the Kepler space telescope. Kepler launched Kepler Telescope in 2009 to help to find terrestrial planets super-earth etc.

This is the telescope which measures the amount of light coming from a star and detects a slight variation in brightness as a planet passes in front. Using this technique NASA's Kepler Mission has founded thousands of candidate planet in this world.

Why does the earth bulge at the equator?
sattari [20]

centrifugal force is a fictitious force. What is happening is that since the earth itself is not a rigid body it will deform when under motion. Although gravity attempts to make the earth spherical, as it is rotating the earth deforms, in such away that it flattens to become an oblique spheroid. This happens as the material at the equator must have a net resultant centripetal force (not centrifugal) which causes its position of equilibrium from the center of the earth to be further away than at the poles as they do not have this force as they are not rotating around the center of mass.

One of your summer lunar space camp activities is to launch a 1090 kg rocket from the surface of the Moon. You are a serious spa
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

ΔP.E = 6.48 x 10⁸ J

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon:

g = GM/R²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

M = Mass of moon = 7.36 x 10²² kg

R = Radius of Moon = 1740 km = 1.74 x 10⁶ m

Therefore,

g = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(7.36 x 10²² kg)/(1.74 x 10⁶ m)²

g = 2.82 m/s²

now the change in gravitational potential energy of rocket is calculated by:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

where,

ΔP.E = Change in Gravitational Potential Energy = ?

m = mass of rocket = 1090 kg

Δh = altitude = 211 km = 2.11 x 10⁵ m

Therefore,

ΔP.E = (1090 kg)(2.82 m/s²)(2.11 x 10⁵ m)

<u>ΔP.E = 6.48 x 10⁸ J</u>

What travels by vibrating particles? Mechincal Waves or ElecrtoMagnetic Waves.
Naddik [55]

Answer:mechanical waves.

Explanation:

Mechanical waves require the particles of the medium to vibrate in order for energy to be transferred. For example, water waves, earthquake/seismic waves, sound waves, and the waves that travel down a rope or spring are also mechanical waves.

Which device provides electrical energy to run an electric circuit
REY [17]

The correct answer is

C. The battery

The battery is a device that provides a potential difference in the circuit, and so an electromotive force (e.m.f.) which pushes the electrons in the circuit from the negative pole towards the positive pole of the battery, so they move through the circuit. Therefore, it provides electrical energy.
