What safety factors should astronauts be aware of when collecting rock samples on the Moon?

Physics
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Astronauts face a wide range of dangers when maneuvering in space. Collecting rock samples requires breaking apart rocks on the moon's surface, which requires tools. These tools are sometimes small hammers or other times special drills. All of this process means moving and using force to break these rocks apart and every single movement can cause a mistake which can lead to a piece of the suit ripping or a failure in the machinery. Since there is no oxygen on the moon the tiniest failure in the suit can lead to the death of the astronaut. Therefore, having backup safety precautions, and quick repair scenarios is a must when collecting rock samples on the moon.

Mass

Explanation:

They physical property that is not the same among the four objects is their masses.

Mass is the amount of matter contained in a substance.

  • Specific heat is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1g of a substance by 1k.
  • Since the materials are made of the same metal, they have the same specific heat.
  • They will also have the same magnetism and electrical conductivity.
  • These properties are intensive property and do not depend on the amount of matter present.
  • Mass is an extensive property that depends on the amount of matter present.

What type of boundary is shown in the diagram?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:Divergent boundaries -- where new crust is generated as the plates pull away from each other.

Convergent boundaries -- where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another.

Transform boundaries -- where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other.

Give an example of Newton's second law in everyday life?
Marat540 [252]
That’s the acceleration law! This would be a good example of inertia! When in a car, if the brakes are pressed immediately, the passengers will launch forward since their bodies are still in motion!

Why does light refract when it encounters the glass in a lens?
Ber [7]
The answer is C, because it hits a dense medium, which causes it to bounce off.

One end of a horizontal spring with force constant 76.0 N/m is attached to a vertical post. A 5.00-kg can of beans is attached t
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

a. The speed is 2.39 m/s

b. The acceleration of the block is 10.2\frac{m}{s^{2} }

Explanation:

First, we have to do the energy balance where we consider two states, the first where the spring remains still and the second when it is stretched 0.400m:

K_{1} +U_{1}+W_{ext}=K_{2}+U_{2}\\K_{1}=0\\U_{1}=\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} _{1} =0\\W_{ext}=FΔx=(0.400m)\\

W_{ext}=20.4 Nm

U_{2} =\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} =\frac{1}{2} (76.0N/m)0.400^{2}=6.08Nm\\k_{2} =\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} _{2}  \\\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{2}=W_{ext}-U_{2}\\v_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{W_{ext}-U_{2}}{m} } \\v_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{20.4Nm-6.08Nm}{2.5kg} } \\v_{2}=2.39 \frac{m}{s}

To determine, the acceleration we solve the following equation for a:

F=ma\\a=\frac{F}{m} =\frac{51.0N}{5.00kg}\\a=10.2\frac{m}{s^{2} }
