Answer: d
One thirty-sixth of
Explanation: Gravitational field or gravitational field strength obeys the inverse square law. The gravitational field is inversely proportional to the square of the earth distance. That is,
g = Gm/r^2
Where r = distance.
If weather satellite is placed in orbit six times farther away from the earth's centre, gravitational field will be one thirty-sixth of its initial value.
Therefore, the gravitational field experienced by the satellite in orbit is one thirty-sixth of the field that it experienced on the ground.
A helicopter travels west at 80 mph. It is moving above a car traveling on a highway at 80 mph. Given this information, you can determine that the helicopter and car are traveling ____.
Select one:
a. in the same direction
b. in different directions
c. at the same speed
d. at the same velocity
Answer:
d. at the same velocity
Explanation:
I will assume the car is also travelling westward because it was stated that the helicopter was moving above the car. In that case, it depends where the observer is. If the observer is in the car, the helicopter would look like it is standing still ( because both objects have the same velocity). If the observer is on the side of the road, both objects would be travelling at the same velocity. Also recall that, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes but speed is the rate at which object covers distance and it is not direction wise. Hence velocity is the best option.
Answer:
C. At the same speed

describe what factors can make it difficult to reintroduce captive animals into their natural habitats.
Answer:
Captive animals are animals that are maintained by people in an enclosed place not allowing them to be free. There are several factors that make it difficult to reintroduce them to their natural habitats like:
-Captive animals don't learn the necessary skills to survive in their natural habitats like hunting skills.
-They are too used to have contact with people which makes them vulnerable to hunters.
-Sometimes these animals are not able to integrate with a wild population.
-It has been found that some captive animals are more susceptible to diseases.

What is a good analogy for potential energy in a circuit?
Answer: find the answer in the explanation
Explanation: The potential energy in a circuit between two points is the workdone in taking units positive charge from one point to the other in the circuit. Its S.I unit is Joule.
Because voltage of a battery or cell in a circuit is the potential energy difference across its terminal
The potential energy difference between two points is one volt, if the workdone in taking one Coulomb of positive charge from one point to the other is one Joule.
Which of the following statements best describes the second law of
thermodynamics?
A. Heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold, and entropy
decreases.
B. Heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold, and entropy increases.
C. Heat flows spontaneously from cold to hot, and entropy increases.
D. Heat flows spontaneously from cold to hot, and entropy
decreases.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Heat flows from hot to cold to lower the temperature of hot areas and increase temperature of cold areas. The end result is that the 2 areas have the same temperature, thus increasing entropy.
Heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold, and entropy increases.
The second law of thermodynamics relates to the entropy of a system. According to the second law of thermodynamics, the total entropy of a system may increase or remain constant in a spontaneous process.
The implication of this is that the entropy of a system never decreases. The entropy of a system increases when heat flows from a hot to a cold body and not vice versa.
Hence, the statement that; "Heat flows spontaneously from hot to cold, and entropy increases" describes the second law of thermodynamics.

What is the momentum of a man of mass 10kg when he walks with a uniform velocity of 2m/s.
(point stealers will be reported so pls dont do it)
Answer:
[tex]Momentum(p) = 20kgm/s[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
Mass = 10kg
Velocity = 2m/s
Required
Calculate the momentum of the man
Momentum is calculated as thus
[tex]Momentum(p) = Mass(m) * Velocity(v)[/tex]
or
[tex]p = mv[/tex]
So; to solve this question; we simply substitute 10kg for mass and 2m/s for velocity in the above formula;
The formula becomes
[tex]Momentum(p) = 10kg * 2m/s[/tex]
[tex]Momentum(p) = 10 * 2 * kg * m/s[/tex]
[tex]Momentum(p) = 20kgm/s[/tex]
Hence, the momentum of the man is [tex]20kgm/s[/tex]

Answer:
D. The Federal Reserve Bank can provide a short-term loan to banks
to prevent them from running out of money.
Explanation:
A bank run occurs when a large number of depositors withdraw their deposits simultaneously from a bank.
As the number of withdraws increases, the available cash in the bank decreases until a point that the bank can't give depositors their money.
In these situations, The Federal Reserve Bank acts as a lender of last resort that helps to reinforce the effect of deposit insurance, and to reassure bank customers that they will not lose their money.
7. How does friction affect the kinetic energy of an object?
Answer:
Friction is a resistive force to motion. When two bodies move against each other some of the kinetic energy is converted to heat energy due to friction. This reduces the total kinetic energy in the system. ... Mechanical energy is reduced due to friction and converted to heat.
Explanation:
Kinetic friction does oppose the relative motion of two surfaces. If the one of these surfaces is stationary, then it will tend to slow down the moving object.

Answer:
The fundamental wavelength of the vibrating string is 1.7 m.
Explanation:
We have,
Velocity of wave on a guitar string is 344 m/s
Length of the guitar string is 85 cm or 0.85 m
It is required to find the fundamental wavelength of the vibrating string. The fundamental frequency on the string is given by :
[tex]f=\dfrac{v}{2l}\\\\f=\dfrac{344}{2\times 0.85}\\\\f=202.35\ Hz[/tex]
Now fundamental wavelength is :
[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{344}{202.35}\\\\\lambda=1.7\ m[/tex]
So, the fundamental wavelength of the vibrating string is 1.7 m.
Remembering the Battle of Bunker Hill what did general Howe and his troops do
Answer:
General Howe and the British regrouped after losing the hill.
Explanation:
British forces marched to Breed's Hill on 17 June under the order of Major General William Howe. When the British Army marched in waves toward the Americans, Colonel William Prescott issued orders to avoid the fire until British troops came to clear sight in an attempt to protect the dwindling supply of ammunition to the Americans. Many British soldiers have been killed or maimed; the remainder has withdrawn down the hill. In a second wave, the British stormed the hill once again but met with the same fate. So they withdrew again, suffering a large number of casualties. Eventually the British took the hill in the third attempt but at a great cost of casualties.

An object with a mass of 120 kilograms is moving at a velocity of 30m/s what’s its momentum
Explanation:
Momentum = mass × velocity
p = mv
p = (120 kg) (30 m/s)
p = 3600 kg m/s
Given:
velocity, v = 30m/s
mass, m = 120kg
Therefore, momentum
p = mv
p = 120kg * 30m/s
p = 3600 kgm/s = [tex]3.6 * 10^3 kgms^{-1}[/tex]
What is a simple definition of momentum?A property of a moving body that the body has by virtue of its mass and motion and that is equal to the product of the body's mass and velocity broadly.
