The mass of jupiter is 300 times the mass of the earth. Jupiter orbits the sun with Tjupiter = 11.9 yr in an orbit with Rjupiter

= 5.2 Rearth. Suppose the earth could be moved to the distance of Jupiter and placed in a circular orbit around the sun. Which of the following describes the earth's new period? EXPLAIN
a) 1 yr
b) between 1 yr and 11.9 yr
c) 11.9 yr
d) more than 11.9 yr
e) It would depend on the earth's speed.
f) It's impossible for a planet of earth's mass to orbit at the distance of Jupiter.

Answer:

c) 11.9 yr

Explanation:

The orbital period is proportional to r^(3/2) and does not depend on the satellite's mass. Any object at Jupiter position will have the same orbital period regardless of mass.

By keppler's law  we know that

T^2= r^3

T= orbital time period

r= mean distance of the planet from the Sun.

clearly, The orbital period does not depend on the satellite's mass

there, the correct answer will be c= 11.9 yr.

Which statement is incorrect when considering gases? 1. Gas molecules are in constant, random motion at room temperature 2. The
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

For gases :

1. The motion of gases molecule is in random manner at the room temperature.

2.The distance between the gas molecule is more and that is why gas can be compress.

3.The attraction force between the gas molecule is negligible or we can say that there is no any force between the gas molecules.that is why gas can be filled in the container.But the motion of the gas molecule does not stop they are still moving inside the container but the space for movement become less.When a gas container heated then the container start to vibrate because the movement of the gas molecule.

So the option 4 is incorrect.
