Answer:

Sugars...

Explanation:

Several meteorites have been found to carry molecules of sugars that are essential for life. These sugars include Ribose, Arabinose and Xylose. These are found in meteorites that are rich in carbon. These significant discoveries can pave way in finding the origin of life on Earth.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

178200 g mile pounds

Explanation:

Work= Force * Distance= Fh

F=ma=mg where m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

A mass weighing 20 pounds stretches a spring 6 inches. The mass is initially released from rest from a point 6 inches below the

hoa [83]

Answer:

Since the spring mass system will execute simple harmonic motion the position as a function of time can be written as $x(t)=Asin(\omega t+\phi)$

'A' is the amplitude = 6 inches (given)

$\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$ is the natural frequency of the system

At equilibrium we have

$mg=kx\\\\k=\frac{mg}{x}$

Applying values we get

$k=40 lb/ft$

thus natural frequency equals

$\omega =\sqrt{\frac{40}{\frac{20}{32}}}\\\\\omega =8s^{-1}$

Thus the equation of motion becomes

$x(t)=6sin(8t+\phi)$

At time t=0 since mass is at it's maximum position thus we have

$A=Asin(\omega t+\phi)\\\\\therefore sin(\omega\times 0+\phi)=1\\\\\phi=\frac{\pi}{2}\\\\\therefore x(t)=Asin(\omega t+\frac{\pi}{2})$

Thus the position of mass at the given times is as follows

1) at $\frac{\pi}{12}$ $x(t)=5.99inches$

2) at $\frac{\pi}{8}$ $x(t)=5.9909inches$

3) at $\frac{\pi}{6}$ $x(t)=5.98397inches$

4) at $\frac{\pi}{4}$ $x(t)=5.9639inches$

5) at $\frac{9\pi}{32}$ $x(t)=5.954inches$

babunello [35]

Answer:

0.00001266 m

Explanation:

D = Distance from source to screen

m = Order

d = Slit separation

The distance from a point on the screen to the center line

$y=\frac{m\lambda D}{d}$

At m = 0

$y_0=0$

$y_1-y_0=35\ cm\\\Rightarrow y_1=35\ cm$

At m = 1

$y_1=\frac{1\times 633\times 10^{-9}\times 7}{d}\\\Rightarrow d=\frac{1\times 633\times 10^{-9}\times 7}{0.35}\\\Rightarrow d=0.00001266\ m$

The slit separation is 0.00001266 m
