The equation t^3=a^2 shows the relationship between a planet’s orbital period, T, and the planet’s mean distance from the sun, A

, in astronomical units, AU. If the orbital period of planet Y is twice the orbital period of planet X, by what factor is the mean distance increased?

Answer:

     2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the relationship of interest by solving the given equation for A, the mean distance.

<h3>Solve for A</h3>

  T^3=A^2\\\\A=\sqrt{T^3}=T\sqrt{T}\qquad\text{take the square root}

<h3>Substitute values</h3>

The mean distance of planet X is found in terms of its period to be ...

  D_x=T_x\sqrt{T_x}

The mean distance of planet Y can be found using the given relation ...

  T_y=2T_x\\\\D_y=T_y\sqrt{T_y}=2T_x\sqrt{2T_x}=(2\sqrt{2})T_x\sqrt{T_x}\\\\D_y=2\sqrt{2}\cdot D_x

The mean distance of planet Y is increased from that of planet X by the factor ...

HELP ME ASAP for 37 points!! which expression is equivalent to 14.5d+8.5-1/2d+1/2+2.5d
lina2011 [118]

Equivalent expressions are expressions with equal values

The equivalent expression is 16.5d+9

<h3>How to determine the equivalent expression</h3>

The expression is given as:

14.5d+8.5-1/2d+1/2+2.5d

Express the fractions as decimals

14.5d+8.5-0.5d+0.5+2.5d

Collect like terms

14.5d-0.5d+2.5d+8.5+0.5

Evaluate the like terms

16.5d+9

Hence, the equivalent expression is 16.5d+9
