How do terrestrial and giant planets differ? List as many ways as you can think of.

Physics

Leni [432]4 years ago
5 0

Answer: The differences between terrestrial planets and the giant planets are s follows-

  1. The inner planets namely Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are the terrestrial planets, whereas the outer planets namely Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are known as the outer planets.
  2. Inner planets are composed mainly of silicate materials as well as some metals, whereas the giant planets are comprised of water (in different states) and gases such as Hydrogen and Helium.
  3. The density of the inner planets are more in comparison to the outer planets, where earth has the highest of about 5.5 gm/cm³ and Saturn has the lowest of about 0.7 gm/cm³.
  4. Due to the location of the inner planets near to the sun, they have high boiling point, whereas outer planets are much far from the sun so they have a low boiling point.

Once carbon begins burning in the core of a high-mass star, the outer layers begin to fall inward, driving up the fusion rates a
sammy [17]

Answer:

Fusion rates and star evolution increase rapidly because of the conversion of hydrogen molecules to helium.

Explanation:

At the early stage of a star mass, hydrogen atoms are produced. After a few billion years, these hydrogen atoms formed at the core of the star mass begin to fuse on the external side of the core. Hydrogen atoms get rapidly fused, resulting to a contraction of the star core, and as more hydrogen atoms get fused, helium atoms are formed.

This action results into rapid into a rapid and violent burning action of hydrogen atoms around the core.

Standing at the same location, which organism would have the GREATEST gravitational attraction to the earth?
Nastasia [14]
To claculate the gravitational attraction between two bodies with mass 1(m1) and mass 2 (m2) you need to use the equation:

F= G ((m1*m2)/r^2)

Where;
G is the gravitational constant (6.67E-11 m^3 s-2 Kg-1) and
r is the distance between the two objects.

A pulley with the radius of 10.0 cm was connected to a motor with a massless
kogti [31]

Answer:

(i) -556 rad/s²

(ii) 17900 revolutions

(iii) 11250 meters

(iv) -55.6 m/s²

(v) 18 seconds

Explanation:

(i) Angular acceleration is change in angular velocity over time.

α = (ω − ω₀) / t

α = (10000 − 15000) / 9

α ≈ -556 rad/s²

(ii) Constant acceleration equation:

θ = θ₀ + ω₀ t + ½ αt²

θ = 0 + (15000) (9) + ½ (-556) (9)²

θ = 112500 radians

θ ≈ 17900 revolutions

(iii) Linear displacement equals radius times angular displacement:

s = rθ

s = (0.100 m) (112500 radians)

s = 11250 meters

(iv) Linear acceleration equals radius times angular acceleration:

a = rα

a = (0.100 m) (-556 rad/s²)

a = -55.6 m/s²

(v) Angular acceleration is change in angular velocity over time.

α = (ω − ω₀) / t

-556 = (0 − 15000) / t

t = 27

t − 9 = 18 seconds
