Could the earth have decreased when the astroid hit

1 answer:

7 0

If an asteroid were to strike land or a shallow body of water, it would eject an enormous amount of dust, ash, and other material into the atmosphere, blocking the radiation from the Sun. This would cause the global temperature to decrease drastically..

A 15.0 kg turntable with a radius of 25 cm is covered with a uniform layer of dry ice that has a mass of 9.0 kg. The angular spe

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

ω₂=1.20

Explanation:

Given that

mass of the turn table ,M= 15 kg

mass of the ice ,m= 9 kg

radius ,r= 25 cm

Initial angular speed ,ω₁ = 0.75 rad/s

Initial mass moment of inertia

$I_1=\dfrac{M+m}{2}r^2$

$I_1=\dfrac{15+9}{2}\times 0.25^2\ kg.m^2$

$I_1=0.75\ kg.m^2$

Final mass moment of inertia

$I_2=\dfrac{M}{2}r^2$

$I_2=\dfrac{15}{2}\times 0.25^2\ kg.m^2$

$I_2=0.468\ kg.m^2$

Lets take final speed of the turn table after ice evaporated =ω₂ rad/s

Now by conservation angular momentum

I₁ ω₁ =ω₂ I₂

$\omega_2=\dfrac{0.75\times 0.75}{0.468}\ rad/s$

ω₂=1.20

A lens collects light and focuses it into a small spot. This increases the ________ of the light wave.A lens collects light and

Anika [276]

Answer:

intensity.

Explanation:

when the light collected by the lens is focused into a small spot it tends to increase the intensity of the light.

as different path of light with different intensity combines from passing through the lens it tends to make the light path and intensity coherent and after being coherent there intensity increases.

Which statement below best describes the relationship between the voltage, resistance, and current?

aliina [53]

Answer:

As voltage increases, current increases and resistance stays the same .

Explanation:

Ohm's law gives the relationship between the voltage, resistance, and current. The mathematical form of Ohm's law is given by :

$V\propto I\\\\V=IR$

R is resistance

I is current

V is voltage

So, as voltage increases, current increases and resistance stays the same. The correct option is (A).

An astronaut is walking in space. Which of these would have the greatest speed as observed by the astronaut?

Aleks04 [339]

The answer is C) an electromagnetic wave

An electromagnetic wave, which includes electromagnetic radiation such as visible light, moves the fastest of all of the options listed by a significant margin, especially through space. In fact, light travelling through space is technically the theoretical limit of how fast something can travel.
