Answer:

A large increase in collision time can mean decrease in impact force. This is essentially what an air bag in your car does. It increases the time over which it stops you and decreases the force. ... In this case, the piano would have a smaller change in momentum and a smaller impact force.

The gravitational effect on other bodies determines the weight (or the mass) of a planet. We must somehow measure the strength of its "tug" on another object in order to use gravity to find the mass of a planet. We can harness Newton's equations to deduce what the mass of the planet must be through observing the time it takes for the satellite to orbit its primary planet.

Given:

Mass of Venus = 4.87 x 1024 kg

= 4986.88

Mass of Jupiter = 1.898 x 1024 kg

= 1943.552

Mass of Jupiter compared to mass of Venus

1943.552 / 4986.88

= 0.3897330595482546

= 0.3897330595482546 x 100%

= 38.97%

So, in this problem, <span>the mass of Jupiter is about 0.39 times the mass of Venus.</span>

Alik [6]

Answer:

17.4 cm

Explanation:

Power of lens = +1.75 diopters

Focal length of lens

$f=\frac{100}{1.75}=\frac{400}{7}$

This is a convex lens as focal the diopter given is positive which makes the focal length positive. Image distance will be negative.

v = -25

$\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{-25}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{\frac{400}{7}}\\\Rightarrow -\frac{1}{u}=\frac{7}{400}+\frac{1}{25}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=-\frac{7}{400}-\frac{1}{25}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=-0.0575\\\Rightarrow u=-17.4\ cm$
