Answer: Speeding up the orbital speed of earth so it escapes the sun require the greater energy.

Explanation: To find the answer, we need to know more about the Orbital and escape velocities.

<h3>What is Orbital and Escape velocity?</h3>
  • Orbital velocity can be defined as the minimum velocity required to put the satellite in its orbit around the earth.
  • The expression for orbital velocity near to the surface of earth will be,

                   V_o=\sqrt{gR}

  • Escape velocity can be defined as the minimum velocity with which a body must be projected from the surface of earth, so that it escapes from the gravitational field of earth.
  • The expression for orbital velocity will be,

                    V_e=\sqrt{2gR}

  • If we want to get into the sun, we want to slow down almost completely, so that your speed relative to the sun became almost zero.
  • We need about twice the raw speed to go to the sun than to leave the sun.

Thus, we can conclude that, the speeding up the orbital speed of earth so it escapes the sun require the greater energy.

Given that a pipe having a diameter of 1.5 feet and a height of 10 feet, what is the psi at 5 feet ?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The pressure is 2.167 psi.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 1.5 feet

Height = 10 feet

We need to calculate the psi at 5 feet

Using formula of pressure at a depth in a fluid

Suppose the fluid is water.

Then, the pressure is

P=\rho g h

Where, P = pressure

\rho = density

h = height

Put the value into the formula

P=1000\times9.8\times1.524

P=14935.2\ N/m^2

Pressure in psi is

P=2.166167621\ psi

P=2.167\ psi

Hence, The pressure is 2.167 psi.

PLEASE HELP!!! WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE!
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

a. slope=rise/run

rise=0.02

run=-2

determined using the point (3,0.08) and (1,0.1) on the graph

slope=0.02/-2

= -0.01 or -1/100

b.area= area of trapizoid+ rectangle

((0.07+0.11)÷2)×4+1×0.07

0.36+0.07

=0.43$

c. the area represent the total cost after 5 hours
