For the purpose of the exercise, we can assume that the Earth is at perihelion (closest point to the Sun) on December 21st (in reality, it happens around January 4th) and that the Earth is at aphelion (farthest point from the Sun) on June 21st (in reality, this happens around July 4th). The distance Earth-Sun is the following:
- Perihelion: 147.1 milion km
- Aphelion: 152.1 milion km
- Average distance: 149.6 milion km
So, we can calculate the percentage change with respect to the average distance as:
Answer:
correct answer is C
Explanation:
The time constant of an RC circuit is
τ = RC
so to find the capacitance
C = τ/ R
C = 2.150 / 5.20 10³
C = 4.13 10⁻⁴ F
to find the error we use the worst case
ΔC = | 
the absolute value guarantees that we find the worst case, we evaluate the derivatives
ΔC = 1 /R Δτ + τ/R² ΔR
the absolute values of the errors are
Δτ = 0.002 s
ΔR = 0.3 kΩ
we substitute
ΔC = 0.002 /5.20 10³ + 2.150/(5.20 10³)² 0.3 10³
ΔC = 3.8 10⁻⁷ + 1.74 10⁻⁵
ΔC = 1.77 10⁻⁵ F
the uncertainty or error must be expressed with a significant figure
ΔC = 2 10⁻⁵ F
the percentage error is
Er% =
Er% = 
Er% = 4.8%
the correct answer is C
Nuclear is the most damaging, then alpha, beta, gamma.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Stomata take in carbon dioxide (i think they realease oxygen too), Phloem transports the glucose throughout the plant, Xylem transports the water and minerals from the roots. If you want me to explain more I can
