Physics help!! 10ptA small object placed in the gravitational field of a more massive object will

A. accelerate toward the more massive object.
B. accelerate away from the more massive object.
C. move toward the more massive object at a constant speed.
D. move away from the more massive object at a constant speed.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A. accelerate toward the more massive object is your answer. In fact, even the acceleration with accelerate, also known as the jer.k. The more massive object will pull on the smaller object and the smaller object will increase its speed towards the more massive object.


idk why jer.k is a swear
Answer 2
Answer:
Gravitational forces always appear in equal and opposite pairs.

When a small object is placed in a position near a more massive
object, there is a gravitational force on each object, attracting it
and drawing it toward the other one.

The force on the small object causes it to accelerate toward
the more massive one.  The force on the more massive object
causes it to accelerate toward the smaller one.

The forces are equal.  But since acceleration is inversely
proportional to mass, the small object heads toward the
more massive one with greater acceleration, and the more
massive object heads toward the smaller one with smaller
acceleration.

When you jump into the pool from the high diving board,
you accelerate toward the Earth, and the Earth accelerates
toward you.  The gravitational forces between you and the
Earth are equal in both directions.  But the Earth has more
mass than you have, so its acceleration toward you is smaller
than your acceleration toward it.

If the Sun has 28 times more gravity than Earth,
what is your weight on the Sun?

Answers

If someone have weight that is force due to gravity is X than on the sun it will become 28 X.

What is force?

A force is an effect that can alter an object's motion according to physics. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to describe force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.

Mass of body is constant on any place in the universe and weight changes with acceleration due to gravity so, at sun weight will be 28 X.

If someone have weight that is force due to gravity is X than on the sun it will become 28 X.

Why do different elements emit different colors of light

Answers

Answer:

different photonic energies

Final answer:

Elements emit different colors of light based on their electron configurations and the amount of energy released.

Explanation:

Each element has a unique arrangement of electrons in its atoms. When these electrons transition from higher energy levels to lower energy levels, they release energy in the form of light. The color of light emitted depends on the amount of energy released.

For example, sodium emits yellow light because its electrons transition from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, releasing a specific amount of energy corresponding to the yellow part of the visible spectrum.

Other elements, like copper or lithium, emit different colors of light because they have different electron configurations and release energy at different wavelengths.

A charge of 90 C passes through a wire in 1 hour 15 minutes . what is the current in the wire

Answers

We calculate current from the formula:
I= (q)/(t) , where q is a electric charge transferred over time t 
Time should be converted to seconds:
1h 15 min= 75min= 4500s
I=(90C)/(4500s)=0,02A Result is in unit-Ampere
Current = C / seconds.

1 hour = 3600 seconds
15 minutes = 900 seconds

1 hour 15 minutes = 4500 seconds

90 C / 4500 sec = 0.02 amperes = 20 milliamperes

What is the kinetic energy of a 108 kg object that is moving with a speed of 11.1 m/s ?

Answers

Answer:

6,653.34 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be found using the following formula.

KE=(1)/(2) mv^2

where m is the mass in kilograms and v is the velocity in m/s.

The object is 108 kilograms and is moving at a speed of 11.1 m/s. Therefore, the mass is 108 kg and the velocity is 11.1 m/s.

m=108 kg

v=11.1 m/s

Substitute these values into the formula.

KE=(1)/(2)*108*11.1^2

Evaluate the exponent first. 11.1^2 is the same as 11.1*1.11, which is equal to 123.21

KE=(1)/(2) *108*123.21

Multiply 108 and 123.21

KE=(1)/(2)*13306.68

Multiply 1/2 and 13306.68

KE=6653.34

The kinetic energy of the object is 6,653.34 Joules (kg m2/s^2)
