G the density of an object equals its mass divided by its volume. the mass of earth is 6 × 1024 kg and its radius is 4 × 103 mil

es. the mass of the sun is 2 × 1033 g and its radius is 7 × 105 km. calculate the earth's density divided by that of the sun.

Assuming the earth and the sun to be perfect spheres,

Volume of the sphere = 4/3 * pi * (r**3)

Volume of the earth = 4/3 * pi * ((4000*1.609 km)**3) = 1.116 E 12 km3

Volume of the Sun= 4/3 * pi * ((7 E 5 km)**3) = 1.436 E 18 km3

Density = mass /volume

Density of earth = 6 E 24 kg / 1.116 E 12 km3 = 5.376 E 12 [kg/km3]

Density of Sun= 2 E 30 kg / 1.436 E 18 km3 = 1.392 E 12 [kg/km3]

Density of earth / Density of Sun =

5.376 E 12 [kg/km3] / 1.392 E 12 [kg/km3] = 3.86

<em>The earth's density divided by that of the sun = 3.85.10⁻³</em>

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

<h3><em>Further explanation </em></h3>

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume

density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

With the same mass, the volume of objects that have a high density will be smaller than the low density

The unit of density can be expressed in $\frac{g}{cm^3}\:or\:\frac{kg}{m^3}$

Density formula:

$\large{\boxed{\bold{\rho\:=\:\frac{m}{V} }}}$

ρ = density

m = mass

v = volume

We consider the Earth and the Sun to be spheres

We can know from the task that :

m earth = 6.10²⁴ kg

r earth = 4.10³ miles = 6,436.10⁶ m

earth volume =

$\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

$=\:\frac{4}{3} \pi(6.436.10^6)^3$

V earth = 1.12.10²¹ m³

m sun = 2.10³³ kg

r sun = 7.10⁵ miles = 7.10⁸ m

sun volume =

$\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

$=\:\frac{4}{3} \pi( 7.10^8)^3$

V sun = 1.436 .10²⁷m³

So

$\rho_{earth}\:=\:\frac{6.10^{24}}{1.12.10^{21}}$

$\rho_{earth}\:=\:5.36.10^3\:\frac{kg}{m^3}$

$\rho_{sun}\:=\:\frac{2.10^{33}}{1.436^{27}}$

$\rho_{sun}\:=\:1.393.10^6\:\frac{kg}{m^3}$

Then :

$\frac{\rho_{earth}}{\rho_{sun}}\:=\:\frac{5.36.10^3}{1.393.10^6}$

ρ earth : ρ sun ratio = 3.85.10⁻³

How does laser works ?<br>

erastova [34]

Explanation:

Lasers produce a narrow beam of light in which all of the light waves have very similar wavelengths. The laser's light waves travel together with their peaks all lined up, or in phase. This is why laser beams are very narrow, very bright, and can be focused into a very tiny spot.

How did harlow shapley conclude that the sun was not in the center of the milky way galaxy?

timurjin [86]

We learned that We are in the disk of the Galaxy, about 5/8 of the way from the center.

<h3>What is the work of Harlow Shapley?</h3>

Shapley, who was headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, used Cepheid variable stars to estimate the size of the Milky Way Galaxy and its position relative to the Sun. In 1953, he published his "liquid water belt" theory, today known as the concept of a livable zone.

There are many stars, grains of dust, and gas in the Milky Way. It is known as a spiral galaxy because, from the top or bottom, it would appear to be whirling like a pinwheel. About 25,000 light-years from the galaxy's nucleus, the Sun is situated on one of the spiral arms.

Approximately 5/8 of the way from the galaxy's nucleus, we are in the disc. William Herschel believed that the Sun and Earth were about in the middle of the vast cluster of stars known as the Milky Way.

Three resistors are wired in parallel with a battery. Two of the resistors have resistances of 38.7 Q/ and 89.5 Q. The current i

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

$214.9 \Omega$

Explanation:

The three resistors are connected in parallel: this means that the potential difference across each resistor is the same as the voltage of the battery. This can be calculated using the information about the $38.7 \Omega$ resistor: in fact, since we know its resistance and the current flowing through it (0.155 A), we can find the potential difference across this resistor, which is equal to the voltage of the battery:

$V=IR=(0.155 A)(38.7 \Omega)=6.0 V$

We also know the total current in the circuit, 0.250 A. This means that we can find the total resistance of the circuit, using Ohm's law:

$R_{eq}=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{6.0 V}{0.250 A}=24 \Omega$

So now we now the total resistance and the resistance of two of the 3 resistors; therefore, we can find the resistance of the 3rd resistor:

$\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}\\\frac{1}{R_3}=\frac{1}{R_{eq}}-\frac{1}{R_1}-\frac{1}{R_2}=\frac{1}{24 \Omega}-\frac{1}{38.7\Omega}-\frac{1}{89.5\Omega}=0.00465 \Omega^{-1}\\R_3=\frac{1}{0.00465 \Omega^{-1}}=214.9 \Omega$
