Answer:
a. 8.3 minutes average distance from earth to the sun
d. 93 miles or 150 million km
Explanation:
The distance between the earth and the sun is defined as an astronomical unit (AU). It takes 8.3 minutes to go from earth to the sun at the speed of light. That distance has a length of 150 million Kilometers or 93 miles.
It is common to see in planet charts that distance to the sun are compared in astronomical units. In the case of Mars is 1.524 AU away from the sun.
The force exerted by Earth plays the role of centripetal force.
Answer:
(h₁-h₂) = 2.30 10² m
Explanation:
The pressure depends on the height with the formula
P = P_atm + rho g h
Let's apply this expression for the building
P₁ = P_atm + rho_air g h₁
P₂ = P_atm + rho_air g h₂
Subtract
P₁ - P₂ = roh_air g (h₁ –h₂)
The measured pressure is in mm Hg to take this unit to units of pressure must be multiplied by the density of mercury and the acceleration of gravity
P₁- P₂ = rho_Hg g (h₁-h₂) _Hg
rho_Hg g (h₁-h₂) _Hg = roh_air g (h₁ –h₂)
(h₁ –h₂) = rho_Hg / rho_air (h₁-h₂) _ Hg
Let's calculate
(h₁-h₂) = 13600 / 1.18 (695-675)
(h₁-h₂) = 2.30 10⁵ mm
Let's reduce to meter
(h₁-h₂) = 2.30 10⁵ mm (1 m / 10³ mm)
(h₁-h₂) = 2.30 10² m
