There are NINE planets in our solar system: Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Earth, Mercury, Pluto.

As of this year, there are 350 moons in our solar system, 175 of which orbit about our planets.

I hope this helps!

Which two options are forms of potential energy
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Energy is the ability to do work or cause change. There are two kinds of energy – kinetic energy when something is moving, and potential energy, which is energy that is stored and ready to be used. All objects have potential energy or stored energy if they are placed in a certain position.

What is the current hypothesis on how the Earth was formed?
lions [1.4K]
<span>Approximately 4.6 billion years ago, the solar system was a cloud of dust and gas known as a solar nebula. Gravity collapsed the material in on itself as it began to spin, forming the sun in the center of the nebula.

</span>With the rise of the sun, the remaining material began to clump up<span>. Small particles drew together, bound by the force of gravity, into larger particles. The solar wind swept away lighter elements, such as hydrogen and helium, from the closer regions, leaving only heavy, rocky materials to create </span>smaller terrestrial worlds<span> like Earth.

An astronaut landed on a far away planet that has a sea of water. To determine the gravitational acceleration on the planet's su
TiliK225 [7]

The concept required to solve this problem is hydrostatic pressure. From the theory and assuming that the density of water on that planet is equal to that of the earth (1000kg / m ^ 3)we can mathematically define the pressure as

P = \rho g h

Where,

\rho = Density

h = Height

g = Gravitational acceleration

Rearranging the equation based on gravity

g = \frac{P_h}{\rho h}

The mathematical problem gives us values such as:

P = 2.4 atm (\frac{101325Pa}{1atm}) = 243180Pa

\rho = 1000kg/m^3

h = 28.6m

Replacing we have,

g = \frac{243180}{(1000)(28.6)}

g = 8.5m/s^2

Therefore the gravitational acceleration on the planet's surface is 8.5m/s^2

Water waves with a frequency of 4.5 Hz and a wavelength of 2.0m are traveling across a small harbor that is 200 m wide. How long
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

22.2 seconds

Explanation:

recall that for a regular wave

v = fλ

where v = wave velocity (we need to find this to solve the next part)

f = frequency = 4.5 Hz

λ = wavelength = 2.0m

Substituting these into the equation above,

v = fλ

v = (4.5)(2)

v = 9.0m/s

Also recall that Distance travelled = velocity x time

in our case, we found velocity above (= 9.0 m/s) and the distance across the harbor is given as 200m, hence

Distance travelled = velocity x time

200 = 9.0 x time

time = 200/9.0

time = 22.2 seconds
