What happens if an object is in orbit and

Physics

Answer:

The object will float better.

Explanation:

If you have basic knowledge on how it works, this question is relatively easy. Let's start by reviewing something. We already know that this object (let's assume it's a spaceship of sorts) is in orbit, meaning there is already a certain amount of gravity from Earth tugging on it. We also know that space has an effect on how this moves, so the two forces "balance" each other, allowing the object to stay at orbit rather than just drifting off. Now let's see the answers to see which makes more sense.

A. The object will stop moving.

The object can't stop moving. With gravity increasing, it would be impossible for that to happen.

B. The object will fly off into space.

This could only happen if the gravity were to decrease by a decent amount.

C. The object will smash into another object.

There is no other object mentioned in the question.

D. The object will float better.

This seems most likely as gravity would be pulling on the object a bit more, but probably not enough to bring it back to the ground. It might drop a bit lower into the exosphere.

I hope I was right and I hope this helps!

<u>Order sequence of steps that are involved in the production of work by a four-stroke heat engine as follows: </u>

  • Piston moves down, allowing fuel-air mixture to enter intake valve
  • Piston moves up, compressing gas and causing gas to increase its temperature
  • Combustion as gas is still compressed; increase in energy from combustion pushes piston down
  • Piston moves up, pushing burned gases through exhaust valve: Spark plug fires, causing

Answer: Options D, A, C and B

<u>Explanation: </u>

There are four basic steps of a four stroke engine- Intake, Combustion, Power and Exhaust. The first step is the intake of air plus fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. At this time, the piston moves down. Now when the chamber is closed, the spark plug ignites fire which expands the fuel gases.

The gases push down, piston and crankshaft rotates in this way. Once the gases the combustion is done, there is plenty of space in the chamber that makes the piston moves up. In this way a complete cycle is completed and the crankshaft moves. That’s the working of this four stroke engines.

Which description matches up correctly with each type of particle? Alpha - no mass and no charge; beta - mass of 4 and charge of
Veseljchak [2.6K]
The closest answer is
Alpha - mass of 4 and charge of +2; beta - no mass and charge of -1; gamma - no mass and no charge (consists of energy)

It’s not exactly correct because a beta particle has the (small) mass of an electron (also the positron). All other choices are way off, I’d go with this one.

When the light on the moon is increasing, what is it called
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Waxing Gibbous phase occurs when the Moon is mostly lit and the illuminated portion is egg-shaped (gibbous) with the eastern edge shaded. The amount of illuminated area visible is increasing from one day to the next which is what is meant by "waxing"

hope this helps

have a good day :)
