A distant large asteroid is detected that might pose a threat to Earth. If it were to continue moving in a straight line at constant speed, it would pass 16500 km from the center of Earth. However, it will be attracted to Earth and might hit our planet.

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 790 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of 28 degrees with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is k = 0.14. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of a = 0.18 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. b) if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, l, in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.

Africtionless piston-cylinder contains 50 l of saturated liquid r-134a. the piston has a mass and an area resulting in an applied pressure of 500 kpa on the refrigerant. the refrigerant is now heated until its temperature rises to 70∘c. calculate the work (in kj) done during this process.

Write down two additional questions about earth's magnetic field that will make your presentation more informative.
