Planet Y has rotated by 135.5° through during this time.

To find the answer, we need to know about the relation between angle and radius of orbit.

<h3>What's the expression of angle in terms of radius?</h3>
  • Angle= arc/radius
  • As arc = orbital velocity × time,

            angle= (orbital velocity × time)/radius

  • Orbital velocity= √(GM/radius), G= gravitational constant and M = mass of sun
  • So, angle = (√(GM)× time)/radius^3/2
<h3>What's is the angle rotated by planet Y after 5 years, if ratio of the radius of orbit of planet X and Y is 4:3 and planet X is rotated by 88°?</h3>
  • Let Ф₁= angle rotated by planet Y, Ф₂= angle rotated by planet X
  • As time = 5 years ( a constant)
  • Ф₁/Ф₂= (radius of planet X / radius of planet Y)^(3/2)
  • Ф₁= (radius of planet X / radius of planet Y)^(3/2) × Ф₂

   = (4/3)^(3/2) × 88°

   = 135.5°

Thus, we can conclude that Planet Y has rotated by 135.5° through during this time.

How do paved parking lots and roads with concrete or asphalt affect water flow on the land?
harina [27]
On the regular ground, water usually seeps in to the soil, which has a number of benefits for the wildlife in that area. However, with asphalt and concrete, there is no soft and absorbent soil to take in the water, so it just keeps flowing down to the lowest part of land it can. Additionally, some water runoff can carry fertilizer and other harmful chemicals with it in to the oceans and lakes it’s dumped in, which harms the ecosystem in them as well.

Suppose a soccer player kicks the ball from a distance 29 m toward the goal. find the initial speed of the ball if it just passe
Rudik [331]

The ball's vertical velocity at the time it just passes over the goal is 0 m/s. Its initial vertical velocity is unknown and we denote it by v\sin39^\circ, where v here is the ball's initial speed. Vertically, the only force acting on the ball is gravity, which attributes a downward acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2. We expect the maximum height achieved by the ball to be 2.4 m, so we can find the initial speed by solving

\left(0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2-\left(v\sin39^\circ\right)^2=2\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(2.4\,\mathrm m)

\implies v=11\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

A bicyclist in the Tour de France crests a mountain pass as he moves at 18 km/h. At the bottom, 4.0 km farther, his speed is at
Allisa [31]

We are given:

v0 = initial velocity = 18 km/h

d = distance = 4 km

v = final velocity = 75 km/h

a =?

<span>
We can solve this problem by using the formula:</span>

v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a d

 

75^2 = 18^2 + 2 (a) * 4

5625 = 324 + 8a

<span>a = 662.625 km/h^2</span>
