Which of the following might explain the lack of "water worlds"—small planets made mostly of water or other hydrogen compounds—in our own solar system?
a) water worlds can form only on eccentric orbits.
b) there was not enough water in our solar system.
c) in our solar system, the solar wind did not clear out gas until relatively late.
d) small worlds in our solar system formed only close to the sun, where it was too hot for hydrogen compounds to condense.

Follow these directions and answer the questions. 1. set up the ripple tank as in previous investigations. 2. bend the rubber tube to form a "concave mirror" and place in the ripple tank. the water level must be below the top of the hose. 3. generate a few straight pulses with the dowel and observe the reflected waves. do the waves focus (come together) upon reflection? can you locate the place where the waves meet? 4. touch the water surface where the waves converged. what happens to the reflected wave? 5. move your finger twice that distance from the hose (2f = c of c, center of the curvature) and touch the water again. does the image (the reflected wave) appear in the same location (c of c)? you may have to experiment before you find the exact location. sometimes it is hard to visualize with the ripple tank because the waves move so quickly. likewise, it is impossible to "see" light waves because they have such small wavelengths and move at the speed of light. however, both are examples of transverse waves and behave in the same way when a parallel wave fronts hit a curved surface.

In a system with only a single force acting upon a body, what is the relationship between the change in kinetic energy and the work done by the force? answers: work is equal to the change in kinetic energy. work depends on the square of the change in potential energy. work is equal to the negative of the change in kinetic energy. work is equal to the square of the change in kinetic energy
