A planet has two moons, Moon A and Moon B, that orbit at different distances from the planet's center, as shown. Astronomerscoll

ect data regarding the planet, the two moons, and their obits. The astronomers are able to estimate the planet's radius and
mass.
The masses of the two moons are determined to be 2M for Moon A and M for Moon B. It is observed that the distance
between Moon B and the planet is two times that of the distance between Moon A and the planet. How does force exerted from
the planet on Moon A compare to the force exerted from the planet on Moon B?




READ CAREFULLY PLEASE


A) The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is two times larger than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B

B) The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is eight times larger than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B

C) The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is two times smaller than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B

D) The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is eight times smaller than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B

How many photons with 10 ev are required to produce 20 joules of energy?
oee [108]
One electron Volt (eV) is equal to 1.6 x 10^-19 Joules. Therefore, 10 eV is equal to 1.6 x 10^-18 Joules. In order to produce 20 Joules of energy from 10 eV photons, we would require 20 x 1/(1.6  x 10^-18) = 1.25 x 10^19 particles. This demonstrates that in the world of particle physics, the Joule is a massive energy unit relative to the commonly used electron Volt.

Describe how refraction concentrates wave energy so that some parts of a beach erode more.
Zigmanuir [339]

Refraction is the bending of the waves which is result of the fact that different parts of the wave reach the water with different speeds because of the angle approaching the shore.

<span>The wave refraction disperses the wave energy in quiet water areas and sand is deposited.<span>  </span></span>

Which of the following describes the principle of conservation of charge?
grigory [225]

Answer: The statement "The charge cannot be created or destroyed describes the principle of the conservation of charge".

Explanation:

According to the conservation of charge, the charge can neither be created nor destroyed. It can be transferred from one system to another.

In an isolated system, the total electric charge remains constant. The net quantity of electric  charge is always conserved in the universe.

Therefore, "the charge cannot be created or destroyed" describes the principle of the conservation of charge.

Based on the second law of thermodynamics, how would you expect a system to change over time?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Endless movement between hot and cold will eventually mean the end of the universe. This law is about inefficiency, degeneration and decay. <u>The second law can be expressed in several ways, the simplest being that heat will naturally flow from a hotter to a colder body. At its heart is a property of thermodynamic systems called entropy.</u> Entropy basically means an increase in randomness. Hope this helps mate.

How long does it take light from a camera to travel to the face of someone standing 7 meters away?
mestny [16]

The time taken for the light to travel from the camera to someone standing 7 m away is 2.33×10¯⁸ s

Speed is simply defined as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

<h3>Speed = distance / time </h3>

With the above formula, we can obtain the time taken for the light to travel from the camera to someone standing 7 m away. This can be obtained as follow:

Distance = 7 m

Speed of light = 3×10⁸ m/s

<h3>Time =?</h3>

Time = Distance / speed

Time = 7 / 3×10⁸

<h3>Time = 2.33×10¯⁸ s</h3>

Therefore, the time taken for the light to travel from the camera to someone standing 7 m away is 2.33×10¯⁸ s
