Answer: choices a and b

Explanation:

Telescope can be defined as am optical instrument which is designed to observe the distant objects clear and nearer. It comprises of arrangement of lenses which allow the rays of light to be collected. The collected light is focused and the image so produced is magnified in the form of an image. The telescopes are prepared and manufactured on mountains top as this will help in preventing the distortion of light obtain from the star due to the fluctuation of air mass in the atmosphere. The atmospheric distortion affects the resolution, and affects the vision. The atmospheric pressure is low at the mountain tops so it will help in better observation of the sky.

Two identical objects (A, B) travel circles of the same radius, but object A completes three times as many rotations as object B
malfutka [58]

Answer:

a) One-ninth the force acting on object A.

Explanation:

First, we derive an expression for the centripetal force acting on both objects.

For object A, centripetal force is:

F_A = \frac{m{v_A}^2}{r}

For object B, centripetal force is:

F_B = \frac{m{v_B}^2}{r}

We are given that they have the same mass and they move in circles of the same radius.

If object A completes three times as many rotations as object B, then, object must have 3 times the speed of object B.

Hence:

{v_A} = 3*{v_B}

Therefore, F_A becomes:

F_A = \frac{m({3*v_B}^{2} )}{r}\\\\\\F_A = \frac{9m{v_B}^{2}}{r}

F_A = 9F_B

=> F_B = \frac{1}{9} F_A

Therefore, the net centripetal force acting on object B is one-ninth of the force acting on object A.

Solutions with ions that react with acids or bases to lessen their effects are fubrefs
Softa [21]

Answer:

Buffers

Explanation:

A buffer solution is a solution containing weak acids and their salts or weak bases and their salts.

A buffer solution is an equilibrium system that resists changes in pH or pOH when a small amount of an acid or base is added hence it is a solution of fairly constant pH value.

A box of oranges which weighs 83 N is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0
otez555 [7]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A box of oranges which weighs 83 N is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0.90 m/s each second. The push force has a horizontal component of 20 N and a vertical component of 25 N downward. Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    F_{1} = 20 N, F_{2} = 25 N, a = -0.9 m/s^{2}

             W = 83 N

         m = \frac{83}{9.81}

             = 8.46

Now, we will balance the forces along the y-component as follows.

       N = W + F_{2}

           = 83 + 25 = 108 N

Now, balancing the forces along the x component as follows.

       F_{1} - F_{r} = ma

        20 - F_{r} = 8.46 \times (-0.9)

             F_{r} = 7.614 N

Also, we know that relation between force and coefficient of friction is as follows.

             F_{r} = \mu \times N

          \mu = \frac{F_{r}}{N}

                    = \frac{7.614}{108}

                    = 0.0705

Thus, we can conclude that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.0705.
