There are three things needed to be classified as a planet.

Pluto meets 2 of the 3.

The one it does not meet is it doesn’t “clear the neighborhood” which means a planet needs to be gravitationally dominant over all objects around it. Meaning smaller bodies ( asteroids) would either combine with the larger body making it bigger or pushing them away ( out of their orbit) so they do not collide with the larger body.

It is easier to see clothes with pointed needle than a blunt one​
topjm [15]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is easier to see clothes with pointed needle than a blunt one because pressure exerted is more in a pointed needle as it occupies less space compared to blunt needle, A blunt has more surface area so the pressure exerted will less as compared to a pointed needle.

Consider two identical insulated metal spheres, A and B. Sphere A initially has a charge of -6.0 units and sphere B initially ha
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

<em>-2 units of charge</em>

Explanation:

charge on A = Qa = -6 units

charge on B = Qb = 2 units

if the spheres are brought in contact with each other, the resultant charge will be evenly distributed on the spheres when they are finally separated.

charge on each sphere will be = \frac{Qa + Qb}{2}

charge on each sphere =  \frac{-6 + 2}{2} = \frac{-4}{2} = <em>-2 units of charge</em>

The blood pressure of human body is greater at the feet than at the brain. why?give reason​
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Gravity stronger closer to the core of the earth

Explanation:

The gravity applied to the feet is stronger than to the upper part of the body for example the brain because of the distance it is between the body part and the core of the earth where the gravity force is pulling towards. Even though the difference between the gravity force between the brain and the feet is minimal it is still a greater force at the feet than at the brain

The nine ring wraiths want to fly from barad-dur to rivendell. rivendell is directly north of barad-dur. the dark tower reports
Katarina [22]
The west constituent of their sequence needs to cancel out 58 mph crosswind. Subsequently a northwest direction is a 45-degree angle up to even with the destination. That is the third point out of the triangle and the right angle is at the destination. The top side is the west constituent of their flight the vertical side is their resultant travel and the hypotenuse is their definite distance flown. Since the 58 mph crosswind was negated by flying northwest, the distance from the beginning to the destination must be the same distance as the west component of their travel. The hypotenuse is square root of twice the side since it has 2 identical sides.

c = sqrt (58^2 + 58^2) = sqrt (6728) = 82.02 
 
Alternative solution:

c = sqrt (2) * 58 = 1.414 * 58 = 82.02

Therefore, they have to fly 82.02 mph
