Explanation:

It is given that,

Semi major axis of the Jupiter, a=7.78\times 10^{11}\ m

Mass of the sun, M=1.99\times 10^{30}\ kg

(a) Let T is the period of Jupiter's orbit. It is given by :

T^2\propto a^3

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}}\times (7.78\times 10^{11})^3

T=3.74\times 10^8\ s

(b) We know that,

1\ year=3.154\times 10^7\ s

or

1\ s=3.171\times 10^{-8}\ year

3.74\times 10^8\ s={3.171\times 10^{-8}}\times {3.74\times 10^8}

T = 11.859 earth years

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

(a) 3.74 x 10^8 seconds

(b) 11.86 earth year

Explanation:

Radius, R = 7.78 x 10^11 m

mass of sun, M = 1.99 x 10^30 kg

(a) Let T be the period of Jupiter.

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{R^{3}}{GM}}

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{\left ( 7.78\times10^{11} \right )^{3}}{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.99\times10^{30}}}

T = 3.74 x 10^8 seconds

(b) 1 year = 365 days

1 day = 24 hour

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

T = 11.86 earth year.

The volume occupied by a sample of gas is 480 mL when the pressure is 115 kPa.What pressure must be applied to the gas to make i
balandron [24]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>84.9 kPa</h2>

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law to find the final pressure

That's

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

Since we are finding the final pressure

P_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}

From the question

P1 = 115 kPa

V1 = 480 mL

V2 = 650 ml

So we have

P_2 =  \frac{115000 \times 480}{650}  = \frac{55200000}{650}  \\  = 84923.076923...

We have the final answer as

<h3>84.9 kPa</h3>

Hope this helps you
