Answer:
120 N
Explanation:
F=ma therefore 60kg times 2m/s^2 is 120 N
The answer is "B".. Galileo discovered that dropping two items of the same mass, they can have different weights but no matter what the force that is acting upon them is the same amount, so this means that both objects will hit the ground at the same time. Galileo tested this theory and proved it right.
Question
Rutherford tracked the motion of tiny, positively charged particles shot through a thin sheet of gold foil. Some particles travelled in a straight line and some were deflected at different angles.
Which statement best describes what Rutherford concluded from the motion of the particles?
A) Some particles travelled through empty spaces between atoms and some particles were deflected by electrons.
B) Some particles travelled through empty parts of the atom and some particles were deflected by electrons.
C) Some particles travelled through empty spaces between atoms and some particles were deflected by small areas of high-density positive charge in atoms.
D) Some particles travelled through empty parts of the atom and some particles were deflected by small areas of high-density positive charge in atoms.
Answer:
The right answer is C)
Explanation:
In the experiment described above, a piece of gold foil was hit with alpha particles, which have a positive charge. Alpha particles <em>α</em> were used because, if the nucleus was positive, then it would deflect the positive particles. The principles of physics posit that electric charges of the same orientation repel.
So most as expected some of the alpha particles went right through meaning that the gold atoms comprised mostly empty space except the areas that were with a dense population of positive charges. This area became known as the "nucleus".
Due to the presence of the positive charges in the nucleus, some particles had their paths bent at large angles others were deflected backwards.

Answer:
258774.9441 m
Explanation:
x = Distance of probe from Earth
y = Distance of probe from Sun
Distance between Earth and Sun = 
G = Gravitational constant
= Mass of Sun = 
= Mass of Earth = 
According to the question
The probe should be 258774.9441 m from Earth
Answer:
the relation between the time period of the planet is
T = 2π √[( r1 + r2 )³ / 8GM ]
Explanation:
Given the data i the question;
mass of sun = M
minimum and maximum distance = r1 and r2 respectively
Now, using Kepler's third law,
" the square of period T of any planet is proportional to the cube of average distance "
T² ∝ R³
average distance a = ( r1 + r2 ) / 2
we know that
T² = 4π²a³ / GM
T² = 4π² [( ( r1 + r2 ) / 2 )³ / GM ]
T² = 4π² [( ( r1 + r2 )³ / 8 ) / GM ]
T² = 4π² [( r1 + r2 )³ / 8GM ]
T = √[ 4π² [( r1 + r2 )³ / 8GM ] ]
T = 2π √[( r1 + r2 )³ / 8GM ]
Therefore, the relation between the time period of the planet is
T = 2π √[( r1 + r2 )³ / 8GM ]
