(a) Determine the circumference of the Earth through the equation,
C = 2πr
Substituting the known values,
C = 2π(1.50 x 10¹¹ m)
C = 9.424 x 10¹¹ m
Then, divide the answer by time which is given to a year which is equal to 31536000 s.
orbital speed = (9.424 x 10¹¹ m)/31536000 s
orbital speed = 29883.307 m/s
Hence, the orbital speed of the Earth is ~29883.307 m/s.
(b) The mass of the sun is ~1.9891 x 10³⁰ kg.
Given that
Velocity of missile (v) = 20 m/s ,
Angle of missile (Θ) = 53°
Determine , Vertical component = v sin Θ
= 20 sin 53°
= 15.97 m/s
<span>Scientific theories are tested and proven over time; they are then considered scientific laws.
Sometimes however, they are proven wrong, and so they do not become laws

Answer:
4.2 J
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity: This is defined as the amount of a heat required to rise a unit mass of a substance through a temperature of 1 K
From specific heat capacity,
Q = cmΔt.............................. Equation 1
Where Q = amount of energy absorbed or lost, c = specific heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, Δt = Temperature rise.
Given: m = 1 g = 0.001 kg, Δt = 1 °C
Constant : c = 4200 J/kg.°C
Substitute into equation 1
Q = 0.001×4200(1)
Q = 4.2 J.
Hence the energy absorbed or lost = 4.2 J
