Answer:
Explain step by step
Explanation:
Collisions with asteroids, comets and other stuff from space have been responsible for huge landmarks in our planet’s history: global shifts in climate, the creation of our moon, the reshuffling of our deepest geology, and the extinction of species.

Asteroid threats pop up in the news every now and then, but the buzz tends to fizzle away as the projectiles pass us by. Other times, as with the 2013 Chelyabinsk meteor in Russia, we don’t know they’re here until they’re here.
Perhaps most useful to remember is that when near-Earth objects (including asteroids, comets and meteoroids) enter the atmosphere, they’re called meteors; and if there’s anything left when they hit the ground, the resulting object is called a meteorite. We tend to focus on asteroids when talking about potential collisions, because they’re more likely to hit us than other stuff like comets, but still big enough to pose a threat.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

u_K=0.862

Explanation:

The force of friction between the quails feet and the ground is:

F=m*a

F_K=m*a

F_K=u_k*m*g

u_K*m*g=m*a_c

u_K*g=a

u_K=\frac{a_c}{g}

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

So the coefficient of static is solve

u_K=\frac{\frac{v^2}{r}}{g}

u_K=\frac{v^2}{r*g}=\frac{(2.6m/s)^2}{0.80m*9.8m/s^2}

u_K=0.862

A tube is sealed at both ends and contains a 0.0100-m long portion of liquid. The length of the tube is large compared to 0.0100
Ahat [919]

Answer:

31.321 rad/s

Explanation:

L = Tube length

A = Area of tube

\rho = Density of fluid

v = Fluid velocity

m = Mass = \rho Al

Centripetal force is given by

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{L}\\ F=\dfrac{m(\omega L)^2}{L}\\ F=m\omega^2\\ F= 0.01A\rho\omega^2L

Pressure is given by

P=\dfrac{F}{A}=\rho gL\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.01A\rho\omega^2L}{A}=\rho gL\\\Rightarrow 0.01\omega^2=g\\\Rightarrow \omega^2=\dfrac{g}{0.01}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{0.01}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{9.81}{0.01}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=31.321\ rad/s

The angular speed of the tube is 31.321 rad/s

A student jumps off a sled toward the NORTH after it stops at the bottom of an icy hill. Based on Newton's third law of motion,
zhuklara [117]

When the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

<h3>What is the Newton third law?</h3>

According to the Newton third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. This means that the direction of the reaction force must also be opposite to that of the action.

As such, when the student the sled jumps off toward the north , the sled most likely move towards the south.

Reasons<br> why using mirrors to generate electricity is not a common practice.  
olganol [36]
A big part of the reason that mirrors are seldom if ever used to generate
electricity is the simple fact that there is no way to generate electricity using
mirrors.  They are as useless for the purpose as smoke is, although there are
those who have used both items simultaneously to create the impression that
they have succeeded in that attempt.
