One of the ways that scientists determine the distance between Earth and other objects in space is to send light waves toward an

object and measure how long it takes for the waves to bounce back. If a scientist sends light waves to four different objects in space, which of the following will take the longest to bounce the wave back to Earth?
a star in the Milky Way Galaxy


a star in the Andromeda Galaxy


a planet in Earth's Solar System


a planet in another star system within the Milky Way Galaxy

A circular window of 30 cm diameter in a submarine can withstand a maximum force of 5.20 × 105 N. The maximum depth in a lake to
Svetach [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         F = 5.20 \times 10^{5} N

         g = 9.8 m/s

         radius = \frac{diameter}{2}

                    = \frac{30 cm}{2} = 15 cm = 0.15 m   (as 1 m = 100 cm)

Formula to calculate depth is as follows.

        F = \rho \times g \times h \times A

or,      h = \frac{F}{\rho \times g \times A}        

       h = \frac{5.2 \times 10^{5}}{1000 \times 9.8 \times (3.1416 \times (0.15 m^{2})}

           = 751 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum depth in a lake to which the submarine can go without damaging the window is closest 750 m.

Give reason for the following:
Zigmanuir [339]

a) An inflated balloon was pressed against a wall after it has been rubbed with a piece of synthetic cloth. It was found that the balloon sticks to the wall. <u>This is because a positive and negative electric charge is produced, therefore the balloon sticks to the wall.</u>

b) When an object is thrown up, it comes back to ground <u>because of gravitational attraction force of earth</u>.

c) Mountaineers suffer nose bleeding at higher altitudes <u>because the oxygen level decreases with increase in altitude, which the body cannot adjust.</u>

d) Foundations of high rise buildings are kept wide <u>because more is the area of contact, less is the pressure efforts. So, foundations are wide so as to decrease the possibility of the building from falling down.</u>

e) Deep sea divers or high altitude fliers wear special suits <u>so as prevent their body from being crushed by the water pressure. Since water pressure is maximum at deep seas and oceans, therefore, more is the risk of being injured.</u>

f) Walls of a dam are thickened near the base <u>so that the dam can handle the kinetic energy pressure and prevent itself from breaking down, which if not, can lead to flooding</u>.
