Answer:

Wave theory of light explains the phenomena of interference, diffraction, scattering, dispersion, polarisation etc. Complete solution: Around 1700, it was concluded by Newton that light was a group of particles. It was called corpuscular theory.

Asteroid Ida was photographed by the Galileo spacecraft in 1993, and the photograph revealed that the asteroid has a small moon,

Nady [450]

Answer:

The orbital speed of Dactyl is $5.55m/s$

Explanation:

The orbital speed can be determined by the combination of the universal law of gravity and Newton's second law:

$F = G\frac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where G is gravitational constant, M is the mass of the asteroid, m is the mass of the moon and r is the distance between them

In the other hand, Newton's second law can be defined as:

$F = ma$ (2)

Where m is the mass and a is the acceleration

Then, equation 2 can be replaced in equation 1

$m\cdot a = G\frac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$ (2)

However, a will be the centripetal acceleration since the moon Dactyl describe a circular motion around the asteroid

$a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}$ (3)

$m\frac{v^{2}}{r} = G\frac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}$ (4)

Therefore, v can be isolated from equation 4:

$m \cdot v^{2} = G \frac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}r$

$m \cdot v^{2} = G \frac{M \cdot m}{r}$

$v^{2} = G \frac{M \cdot m}{rm}$

$v^{2} = G \frac{M}{r}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{G M}{r}}$ (5)

Finally, the orbital speed can be found from equation 5:

Notice, that it is necessary to express r in units of meters.

$r = 95km \cdot \frac{1000m}{1km}$ ⇒ $95000m$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.672x10^{-11}N.m^{2}/kg^{2})(4.4x10^{16}kg)}{95000m}}$

$v = 5.55m/s$

Hence, the orbital speed of Dactyl is $5.55m/s$

an object is moving with initial velocity of 5 m/s. After 10 seconds final velocity is 10 m/s. Calculate its acceleration.

Brut [27]

Answer:

0.5m/s2

Explanation:

acceleration= change in velocity/time taken

= v - u/ t

= 10-5/10

=5/10

= 0.5m/s2
