What force causes Earth to orbit the Sun?

Physics
1 answer:
Sonja [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Gravitational forces are acting on a masses . It gives

F = (GmM)/ r2

F - force acting on two masses

G - Gravitational Constant

m, M - Mass

r - distance between two mass

Magnetic force acting on due to magnetic fields

Nuclear force is acting on due to nuclear reaction . This is happened inside th sun between H and He

Elastic force is acting due to stress and strain of the object

An organ pipe open at both ends has two successive harmonics with frequencies of 220 Hz and 240 Hz. What is the length of the pi
Harman [31]

Answer:

The  length is  l  =  8.6 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frequencies of the two successive harmonics are f_1 =  220 \ Hz ,  f_2  =  240 \  Hz

   The speed of sound in the air is  v_s  =  343 \  m/s

Generally the frequency of a given harmonic is mathematically represented as

     f_n  =  \frac{n  v  }{2l}

Here  n defines  the position of the harmonics

Now since the position of both harmonic is not know but we know that they successive then we can represented them mathematically as

    220  =  \frac{n v}{2l}

and  

     240  =  \frac{(n+1) v}{2l}

So

   \frac{(n + 1 ) v}{2l} - \frac{n v}{2l}  =  240-220

=>  \frac{v}{2l}  =  20

=>   l  =  8.6 \  m

During a tennis serve, a racket is given an angular acceleration of magnitude 150 rad/s^2. At the top of the serve, the racket h
QveST [7]

Answer:

270 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

α = 150 rad/s²

ω = 12.0 rad/s

r = 1.30 m

Find:

a

The acceleration will have two components: a radial component and a tangential component.

The tangential component is:

at = αr

at = (150 rad/s²)(1.30 m)

at = 195 m/s²

The radial component is:

ar = v² / r

ar = ω² r

ar = (12.0 rad/s)² (1.30 m)

ar = 187.2 m/s²

So the magnitude of the total acceleration is:

a² = at² + ar²

a² = (195 m/s²)² + (187.2 m/s²)²

a = 270 m/s²

A battery is used to charge a parallel-plate capacitor, after which it is disconnected. Then the plates are pulled apart to twic
Igoryamba

Answer: C.

Explanation:

For a parallel-plate capacitor where the distance between the plates is d.

The capacitance is:

C = e*A/d

You can see that the distance is in the denominator, then if we double the distance, the capacitance halves.

Now, the stored energy can be written as:

E = (1/2)*Q^2/C

Now you can see that in this case, the capacitance is in the denominator, then we can rewrite this as:

E = (1/2)*Q^2*d/(e*A)

e is a constant, A is the area of the plates, that is also constant, and Q is the charge, that can not change because the capacitor is disconnected.

Then we can define:

K = (1/2)*Q^2/(e*A)

And now we can write the energy as:

E = K*d

Then the energy is proportional to the distance between the plates, this means that if we double the distance, we also double the energy.

Calculate the orbital period for Jupiter's moon Io, which orbits 4.22×10^5km from the planet's center (M=1.9×10^27kg) .
Verdich [7]

According to the <u>Third Kepler’s Law of Planetary motion</u> “<em>The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.</em>



In other words, this law states a relation between the orbital period T of a body (moon, planet, satellite) orbiting a greater body in space with the size a of its orbit.



This Law is originally expressed as follows:



<h2>T^{2} =\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}    (1) </h2>

Where;


G is the Gravitational Constant and its value is 6.674(10^{-11})\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}



M=1.9(10^{27})kg is the mass of Jupiter


a=4.22(10^{5})km=4.22(10^{8})m  is the semimajor axis of the orbit Io describes around Jupiter (assuming it is a circular orbit, the semimajor axis is equal to the radius of the orbit)



If we want to find the period, we have to express equation (1) as written below and substitute all the values:



<h2>T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}}    (2) </h2>

T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^{2}}{6.674(10^{-11})\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}1.9(10^{27})kg}(4.22(10^{8})m)^{3}}    



T=\sqrt{\frac{2.966(10^{27})m^{3}}{1.268(10^{17})m^{3}/s^{2}}}    



T=\sqrt{2.339(10^{10})s^{2}}    



Then:


<h2>T=152938.0934s    (3) </h2>

Which is the same as:



<h2>T=42.482h     </h2>

Therefore, the answer is:



The orbital period of Io is 42.482 h
