Two planets, Dean and Sam, orbit the Sun. They each have with circular orbits, but orbit at different distances from the Sun. De

an orbits at a greater average distance than Sam. According to Kepler's Third Law, which planet will have a longer orbital period? Group of answer choices Dean Sam Since they both have circular orbits, they will have the same orbital periods. There isn't enough information to tell.

Answer:

The correct answer is Dean has a period greater than San

Explanation:

Kepler's third law is an application of Newton's second law where the force is the universal force of attraction for circular orbits, where it is obtained.

                T² = (4π² / G M)  r³

When applying this equation to our case, the planet with a greater orbit must have a greater period.

Consequently Dean must have a period greater than San which has the smallest orbit

The correct answer is Dean has a period greater than San

You throw a 20-N rock vertically into the air from ground level. You observe that when it is a height 14.8m above the ground, it
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

(A) The speed just as it left the ground is 30.25 m/s

(B) The maximum height of the rock is 46.69 m

Explanation:

Given;

weight of rock, w = mg  = 20 N

speed of the rock at 14.8 m, u = 25 m/s

(a) Apply work energy theorem to find its speed just as it left the ground

work = Δ kinetic energy

F x d = ¹/₂mv² - ¹/₂mu²

mg x d = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

g x d = ¹/₂(v² - u²)

gd = ¹/₂(v² - u²)

2gd = v² - u²

v² = 2gd  + u²

v² = 2(9.8)(14.8) + (25)²

v² = 915.05

v = √915.05

v = 30.25 m/s

B) Use the work-energy theorem to find its maximum height

the initial velocity of the rock = 30.25 m/s

at maximum height, the final velocity = 0

- mg x H = ¹/₂mv² - ¹/₂mu²

- mg x H = ¹/₂m(0) - ¹/₂mu²

- mg x H = - ¹/₂mu²

2g x H = u²

H = u² / 2g

H = (30.25)² / 2(9.8)

H = 46.69 m

How many joules of heat are needed to raise the temperature of 50.0 g of aluminum from 10°C to 110°C, if the specific heat of al
dusya [7]

Answer:

Heat required to raise the temperature of the aluminium is 4750 J

Explanation:

As we know that the heat energy required to raise the temperature of the aluminium is given as

Q = ms\Delta T

here we know that

m = 50 g

\Delta T = 110 - 10

\Delta T = 100 ^oC

so we have

Q = 50(0.95)(100)

Q = 4750 J

If a 10. m3 volume of air (acting as an ideal gas) is at a pressure of 760 mm and a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius is taken t
kow [346]
We know, the ideal gas equation, 
P1V1 / T1 = P2V2 / T2

Here, P1 = 760 mm
V1 = 10 m3
T1 = 27 + 273 = 300 K

P2 = 400 mm Hg
T2 = -23 + 273 = 250 K

Substitute their values, 
760*10 / 300 = 400 * V2 / 250
25.33 * 250 = 400 * V2
V2 = 6333.333/ 400
V2 = 15.83

In short, Your Answer would be approx. 15.83 m3

Hope this helps!

A ladder rests against a vertical wall at a point 12 feet from the floor. The angle formed by the ladder and the floor is 63°. C
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

length of the ladder is 13.47 feet

base of wall to latter distance 6.10 feet

angle between ladder and the wall is 26.95°

Explanation:

given data

height h  = 12 feet

angle 63°

to find out

length of the ladder ( L) and length of wall to ladder ( A) and angle between  ladder and the wall

solution

we consider here angle between base of wall and floor is right angle

we apply here trigonometry rule that is

sin63 = h/L

put here value

L = 12 / sin63

L = 13.47

so length of the ladder is 13.47 feet

and

we can say

tan 63 = h / A

put here value

A = 12 / tan63

A = 6.10

so base of wall to latter distance 6.10 feet

and

we say here

tanθ = 6.10 / 12

θ = 26.95°

so angle between ladder and the wall is 26.95°
