The vernal equinox in the year AD 10000 will lie in the constellation Scorpio.

Once every 25800 years a full cycle of precession is completed. There are 12 constellations which means it takes 25800 / 12 = 2150 years to move from one constellation to the next one. The order in which the vernal equinox moves from Aquarius is Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra etc.

Now the year is 2022 AD where the vernal equinox just entered constellation Aquarius. In 4172 AD it would have entered constellation Capricorn, then constellation Sagittarius in 6322 AD, then constellation Scorpio in 8472 AD and then constellation Libra in 10622 AD. This means that in 10000 AD it is still in constellation Scorpio and yet to enter constellation Libra.

Therefore, In the year 10000 AD, the vernal equinox will lie in the constellation Scorpio.

To convert centimeters to kilometers, which conversion factors would you need?

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The last option is the only correct one if you like to multiply

The second last option is good if you like to divide.

Explanation:

Each fraction in the last two options has a value of 1

example

dividing by 1

15 cm /(100 cm/ 1 m) = 0.15 m 0.15 m / (1000 m/ 1km) = 0.00015 km

and

multiplying by 1

15 cm(1 m / 100cm) = 0.15 m 0.15m(1 km/1000m) = 0.00015 km

only one of the two fractions in each of the top two options has a value of 1.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

-5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

0.118909090909 s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{1.3^2-2^2}{2\times 0.02}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529\ m/s^2$

Dividing by g

$\dfrac{a}{g}=\dfrac{-57.75}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow a=-5.8868501529g$

The acceleration is -5.8868501529 m/s² or -5.8868501529g

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{1.3-2}{-5.8868501529}\\\Rightarrow t=0.118909090909\ s$

The time taken is 0.118909090909 s
