Answer:

Long-period comets have orbital periods longer than 200 years. ... Since it is the sublimation of these volatiles from the nucleus of the comet as it nears the Sun that gives rise to the coma and highly-visible tails, long-period comets have more material with which to put on a show.

The 26-kg sphere c is released from rest when θ = 0∘ and the tension in the spring is f = 100 n

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

You are given the mass of a sphere that is 26 kg sphere and it is released from rest when θ = 0°. You are also given the force of the spring that is F = 100 N. You are asked to find the tension of the spring. Imagine that the sphere is connected to a spring. The spring exerts a tension and the spring exerts gravitational pull. This will follow the second law of newton.

T - F = ma
T = ma + F
T = 26kg (9.81m/s²) + 100 N
T = 355.06 N

The potential at location A is 382 V. A positively charged particle is released there from rest and arrives at location B with a

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: 247.67 V

Explanation:

Given

Potential At A $V_a=382\ V$

Potential at $V_c=785\ V$

when particle starts from A it reaches with velocity $v_b$ at Point while when it starts from C it reaches at point B with velocity $2v_b$

Suppose m is the mass of Particle

Change in Kinetic Energy of particle moving under the Potential From A to B

$q\cdot \left ( V_a-V_b\right )=0.5m\cdot (v_b)^2----1$

Change in Kinetic Energy of particle moving under the Potential From C to B

$q\cdot \left ( V_c-V_b\right )=0.5m\cdot (2v_b)^2-----2$

Divide 1 and 2 we get

$\frac{V_a-V_b}{V_c-V_b}=\frac{v_b^2}{4v_b^2}$

on solving we get

$V_b=\frac{4}{3}\cdot V_a-\frac{1}{3}\cdot V_c$

$V_b=\frac{743}{3}=247.67\ V$
