4 0

The definition of the celestial bodies allows us to find that the correct answer for a body that is captured and is in planetary orbit is:

  • Moon

Asteroids are small rocky bodies that rotate around the Sun, when this body enters the atmosphere of a planet and reaches the surface it is called meteoroids.

A meteorite is a fragment of meteoroid, which has been divided in space or the atmosphere during the entrance to the planet, in general they are smaller

A meteor is the atmospheric phenomenon that occurs when the pattern meteorite or meteoroid enters, that is, it does not correspond to a celestial body.

An asteroid satellite or Moon is a celestial object that revolves captures and around another asteroid, this concept can be extended to an asteroid revolving captures and around a planet

A satellite is a celestial body that orbits a planet, its origin is varied and could be formed during the formation of the planet itself, or by capturing a nearby body during the initial formation of the solar system.

Let's examine the different answers

  • Moon.

True. A body captured by a planet is generally called the Moon.

  • Meteoriode.

False. A meteoroid is a body that enters the atmosphere of the plant and reaches its surface.

  • Meteorite

False. It is a fragment of meteoroid that manages to reach the surface of the planet.

  • Meteor

False.   Atmospheric phenomenon visible when passing a meteoroid or meteorite.

In conclusion, using the definition of celestial bodies we can find that the correct answer for a body that is captured and is in planetary orbit is:

  • Moon

14. Three identical light bulbs are connected in series, then are disconnected and arranged in parallel. For each of the scenari
Inessa [10]
In order to make things easier to describe and explain, let's call
the resistance of each bulb 'R', and the battery voltage 'V'.

a).  In series, the total resistance is 3R.
In parallel, the total resistance is R/3.
Changing from series to parallel, the total resistance of the circuit
decreases to 1/9 of its original value.

b).  In series, the total current is  V / (3R) .
In parallel, the total current is  3V / R .
Changing from series to parallel, the total current in the circuit
increases to 9 times its original value.

c).  In series, the power dissipated by the circuit is 

                                   (V) · V/3R  =  V² / 3R .

In parallel, the power dissipated by the circuit is

                                   (V) · 3V/R  =  3V² / R .

Changing from series to parallel, the power dissipated by
the circuit (also the power delivered by the battery) increases
to 9 times its original value.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

If a pulley system has an efficiency of 74.2%, then only that fraction of the work performed will be useful. 74.2%=0.742. 0.742*200 is about 148J. Hope this helps!
