The correct answer is C. Mercury and Mars have the same gravitational force

Explanation:

This chart compares the different features of two planets in our solar system (Mercury and Mars). In this chart, the only numerical value or feature that is the same for both planets is gravity because for both planets gravity is 1.7 m/s2. This implies the gravitational force or the force that attracts objects towards the center of the planet is the same or that objects are pulled with the same force in both planets. Moreover, this factor depends on others such as mass, density, among others.

A 0.5 m diameter wagon wheel consists of a thin rim having a mass of 7 kg and six spokes, each with a mass of 1.2 kg. 1.2 kg 7 k

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the rim of wheel, m₁ = 7 kg

Mass of one spoke, m₂ = 1.2 kg

Diameter of the wagon, d = 0.5 m

Radius of the wagon, r = 0.25 m

Let I is the the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis.

We know that the moment of inertia of the ring is given by :

$I_1=m_1r^2$

$I_1=7\times (0.25)^2=0.437\ kgm^2$

The moment of inertia of the rod about one end is given by :

$I_2=\dfrac{m_2l^2}{3}$

l = r

$I_2=\dfrac{m_2r^2}{3}$

$I_2=\dfrac{1.2\times (0.25)^2}{3}=0.025\ kgm^2$

For 6 spokes, $I_2=0.025\times 6=0.15\ kgm^2$

So, the net moment of inertia of the wagon is :

$I=I_1+I_2$

$I=0.437+0.15=0.587\ kgm^2$

So, the moment of inertia of the wagon wheel for rotation about its axis is $0.587\ kgm^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Exposure to the Sun's harmful infrared radiation should be kept to a minimum.

zysi [14]

Of course! If it's harmful, then your exposure to it should be kept
to a minimum. That's a no-brainer. But the sun's infrared radiation
is generally less harmful than its ultraviolet radiation is.

34. A train, starting from rest, accelerates along the platform at a uniform rate of 0.6 m/s2. A passenger standing on the platf

ira [324]

Answer:

4.08 s

Explanation:

Let the passenger took "t" time to catch the train

so in this case the total distance moved by the train + 5 m = total distance moved by the passenger

so we will have

distance moved by train is given as

$d_1 = \frac{1}{2}(0.6) t^2$
