Answer:

An asteroid that has an orbital period of 3 years will have an orbital with a semi-major axis of about  2 years.

Explanation:

Given;

orbital period of 3 years, P = 3 years

To calculate the years of an orbital with a semi-major axis, we apply Kepler's third law.

Kepler's third law;

P² = a³

where;

P is the orbital period

a is the orbital semi-major axis

(3)² = a³

9 = a³

a = a = \sqrt[3]{9} \\\\a = 2.08 \ years

Therefore, An asteroid that has an orbital period of 3 years will have an orbital with a semi-major axis of about  2 years.

When a driver presses the brake pedal, his car can stop with an acceleration of -5.4m/s^2. How far will the car travel while com
Dahasolnce [82]
Information that is given:
a = -5.4m/s^2
v0 = 25 m/s
---------------------
S = ?
Calculate the S(distance car traveled) with the formula for velocity of decelerated motion:
v^2 = v0^2 - 2aS
The velocity at the end of the motion equals zero (0) because the car stops, so v=0.
0 = v0^2 - 2aS
v0^2 = 2aS
S = v0^2/2a
S = (25 m/s)^2/(2×5.4 m/s^2)
S = (25 m/s)^2/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = (625 m^2/s^2)/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = 57.87 m

Ted Clubber Lang. A hook in boxing primarily involves horizontal flexion of the shoulder while maintaining a constant angle at t
il63 [147K]

Answer:

15 m/s or 1500 cm/s

Explanation:

Given that

Speed of the shoulder, v(h) = 75 cm/s = 0.75 m/s

Distance moved during the hook, d(h) = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Distance moved by the fist, d(f) = 100 cm = 1 m

Average speed of the fist during the hook, v(f) = ? cm/s = m/s

This can be solved by a very simple relation.

d(f) / d(h) = v(f) / v(h)

v(f) = [d(f) * v(h)] / d(h)

v(f) = (1 * 0.75) / 0.05

v(f) = 0.75 / 0.05

v(f) = 15 m/s

Therefore, the average speed of the fist during the hook is 15 m/s or 1500 cm/s

Can someone help me with this please?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

C2, C1, C4, C5 and C6 are in parallel. Therefore, we use the formula Cp = C1 + C2 + ....

Cp = C2 + C1 + C4 + C5 + C6 = ( 7 * 10 ^-3) + (18 * 10^-6) + (0.8F) + (200 * 10^-3 F) + (750 * 10^-6) = 1.008F

Now, Cp will become one capacitor and it will be aligned with C3, therefore it will now become a circuit in series.

We use the formula: 1/Cs = 1/C1 + 1/C2 + .... + ....1/Cn

Thus,

1/Cs = 1/C3 + 1/Cp

1/Cs = 1/(14 * 10^-3 F) + 1/(1.008F)

Cs = 1.4 * 10 ^-2 or if we do not round too much it will give exactly 0.0138 F

So the answer should be a)
