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:

distance or displacement

Explanation:

the answer can be displacement or displacement. if the required measure is between two points, we can call it as distance. but if we are to find the distance moved, we call it displacement. though it sounds pretty similar, they are very different. displacement is the shortest distance of movement of a body to its final point (or to the asked point) and distance is the total distance travelled by the body. and while distance is a scalar quantity, that this value shows the magnitude, displacement is a vector quantity, that this value should show both magnitude and direction.

for example if an object travels from point A to point B that is a 10 meters away and back, the distance will be 10+10 which is 20 meters. but the displacement is 0!

since not much information is given, the answer can be both distance or displacement

No scientific testing has been made to check for ion transfer, and the claims are purely empirical. Also, nine out of ten people is hardly a representative sample, and the people can claim whatever they want since "feeling" is subjective. This is most likely a pseudoscientific claim, made to sound legitimate to consumers. The best answer is choice D.

Write equations for both the electric and magnetic fields for an electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum th
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

<h3>Relationship between electric and magnetic field</h3>

The relationship between electric and magnetic field at a given peak electric field is given as;

c = (E₀) / (B₀)

where;

  • c is speed of light
  • E₀ is the peak electric field
  • B₀ is the peak magnetic field

B₀ = E₀ / c

B₀ = (2.9) / (3 x 10⁹)

B₀ = 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T

Thus, the peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

Which type of telescope does not require darkness in order to be able to use it?
exis [7]

Answer:

A type of telescope that does not require darkness in order to be able to use it is the refracting telescope

Explanation:

A refracting telescope consists of  a lens and an eyepiece collects light which is then focused to present a magnified, bright and clear  image.

The incident light on a refracting telescope is bent by refraction such that the light is focused to the focal point.

In refracting telescopes, the image is formed by bending light, that is by refraction.

The refracting telescope technology has been applied to binoculars and camera zoom lenses.
