The angle of the planet is mathematically given as

dY= 704 degrees

<h3>What angle has planet Y rotated through during this time?</h3>

With Kepler's third rule, which states that a planet's orbit squared is a function of cubed radius, we can prove that this is the case.

Generally, the equation for the period is mathematically given as

(periodX / periodY)^2 = (radius X / radius Y)^3

Therefore

(pX / pY)^2 = 4^3

(pX / pY)^2 = 64

\sqrt{(pX / pY )^2}= \sqrt{64}

(pX / pY=8

In conclusion, Because it takes 8 times longer to complete one orbit on planet X, planet Y travels 8 times farther than planet X does in the same time period...

planet Y travels ;

dY=8 * 88.0

dY= 704 degrees

Answer:

a) $A_1 = \frac{\pi d_1^2}{4}$

Explanation:

a) the cross-sectional area of the hose would be the square of radius times pi. And since the sectional radius is half of its diameter d. We can express the cross-sectional area A1 in term of diameter d1

$A_1 = \pi r_1^2 = \pi (d_1/2)^2 = \frac{\pi d_1^2}{4}$
