____, one of Saturn's icy moons, is unusual in the solar system in that it has volcanic activity that ejects plumes of icy parti
blondinia [14]

Answer: Enceladus

Explanation:

Enceladus is a small, icy body with an undergound ocean beneath its crust. Cassini discovered that geyser-like jets spew water vapor and ice particles. It is also the sixth largest moon in Saturn and just about a tenth of the largest moon in Saturn; Titan. It is often regarded as one of the most reflective body in the solar system as a result of its icy surface.

Any two application of gravity
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Well the definition of an application is the act of putting to a special use or purpose so lam assuming that you want specific uses that scientists make of gravity in their work.

Well our first application has helped us to send satellites around the solar system with what Nasa calls gravity assist. Using a particular planets gravity to slingshot a satellite to another destination. Look it up.

The next application much simpler but here on Earth. There are many hydro-electric power stations in use all over the world. Water is stored at a high level and released falling 100s of metres to a turbine where it generates electricity.

Hope that helps.

Choose all facts that increase the orbital velocity of a vessel around planet B. Bigger mass of planet B smaller mass of planet
telo118 [61]

Answer:

- Bigger mass of planet B  

- orbiting closer to planet B

Explanation:

The orbital velocity of the vessel around the planet can be found by equalizing the force of gravity between the vessel and the planet and the centripetal force:

G\frac{mM}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m is the mass of the vessel

M is the mass of the planet

r is the distance between the vessel and the centre of the planet

v is the orbital velocity of the vessel

Re-arranging the formula, we find an expression for v:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

We see that:

- the bigger the mass of the planet, M, the bigger the velocity

- the bigger the distance between the vessel and the planet, r, the smaller the velocity

So, the correct choices that increase the orbital velocity are:

- Bigger mass of planet B  

- orbiting closer to planet B

One end of a 34-m unstretchable rope is tied to a tree; the other end is tied to a car stuck in the mud. The motorist pulls side
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Fc = 89.67N

Explanation:

Since the rope is unstretchable, the total length will always be 34m.

From the attached diagram, you can see that we can calculate the new separation distance from the tree and the stucked car H as follows:

L1+L2=34m

L1^2=L2^2=L^2=2^2+(H/2)^2  Replacing this value in the previous equation:

\sqrt{2^2+H^2/4}+ \sqrt{2^2+H^2/4}=34  Solving for H:

H=\sqrt{52}

We can now, calculate the angle between L1 and the 2m segment:

\alpha = atan(\frac{H/2}{2})=60.98°

If we make a sum of forces in the midpoint of the rope we get:

-2*T*cos(\alpha ) + F = 0  where T is the tension on the rope and F is the exerted force of 87N.

Solving for T, we get the tension on the rope which is equal to the force exerted on the car:

T=Fc=\frac{F}{2*cos(\alpha) } = 89.67N
