As per the question the distance of venus from sun is given as 0.723 AU

We have been asked to calculate the time period of the planet venus.

As per kepler's laws of planetary motion the square of time period of planet is directly proportional to the cube of semi major axis. mathematically

                                        T^{2} \alpha R^{3}

                                         ⇒ T^{2} = KR^{3} where is k is the proportionality  constant

We may solve this problem by comparing with the time period of the earth . We know that time period of earth is 365.5 days

Hence T_{1} =365.5 days

The distance of sun from earth is taken as 1 AU i.e the mean distance of earth from sun

Hence R_{1} =1 AU

The distance of venus from sun is 0.723 AU i.eR_{2} =0.723

From keplers law we know that-\frac{T_{1} ^{2} }{T_{2} ^{2} } =\frac{R_{1} ^{3} }{R_{2} ^{3} }

                            ⇒T_{2} ^{2} =T_{1} ^{2} *\frac{R_{2} ^{3} }{R_{1} ^{3} }

Putting the values mentioned above we get-

                                      T_{2} ^{2} =50,350.132851075

                                         ⇒ T_{2} =\sqrt{50,350.132851075}

                                        ⇒T_{2} = 224.388352752710 days.

Hence the time period of venus is 224.388352752710 days

Orbital period of Venus can be calculated using Kepler third law which states that period squared is equal to distance cubed, that is, (T1/T2)^2 = (a1/a2)^3 Where T1 equals the orbital period of venus, T2 is the orbital period of the earth and is equal to 365.25 days, a1 equals 0.723 AU and a2 equals 1AU. Using the equation and the values above, the orbital period of Venus is 224.54 days.

Answer:

Option D

48 N

Explanation:

From Newton's law of motion we deduce that the magnitude of force is a product of mass and acceleration hence expressed as, F=ma where F is the magnitude of force, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration of the cart. Substituting 24 kg for m and 2 for acceleration then

F=24*2= 48 N

Assume the acceleration of the object is a(t) = −9.8 meters per second per second. (Neglect air resistance.) A baseball is throw
wel

Answer:8.1 m

Explanation:

Given

ball is launched from height of 3 m

initial velocity u=10 m/s

considering the ball is thrown vertically upward

Using v^2-u^2=2 as

where,

u=initial velocity

v=final Velocity

a=acceleration

s=distance

At maximum height final velocity will be zero

v^2-u^2=2 gs

0-10^2=2(-9.8)\cdot h

h=5.10 m

Therefore maximum height w.r.t ground is 3+5.10=8.10 m

larisa [96]

Answer:

In SI units 98.1 N, 16.24 N

English units 22.053861 lbf, 3.6509144 lbf

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity

m = Mass = 10 kg

Weight on Earth

W=mg\\\Rightarrow W=10\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow W=98.1\ N

Converting to lbf

98.1\times 0.22481=22.053861\ lbf

On Moon

W=10\times 1.624\\\Rightarrow W=16.24\ N

Converting to lbf

16.24\times 0.22481=3.6509144\ lbf

In SI units 98.1 N, 16.24 N

English units 22.053861 lbf, 3.6509144 lbf
