Well, you need no look further than the word "terrestrial" If you notice the beginning of the word you notice that it consists mostly of the word "terra" Terra by definition is just land. Due to the solid land of these 4 planets, they're called terrestrial planets, the other 4 aren't made of land but of gas which is why they aren't classified as terrestrial planets.

11. A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 10 m/s in 3 seconds. What is his acceleration ? Is this acceleration higher than that of
Marat540 [252]

a =  \frac{v - u}{t}

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

the acceleration of the cyclist is

\frac{10 - 0}{3}  = 3.333333....

approximately 3.33 m/s^2

the acceleration of the car is

\frac{40 - 0 }{8}  = 5.0

5.0 m/s^2

5.0 > 3.33 \\ so \:  the \: answer  \: is \: no

Two light bulbs are 2.0 m apart. From what distance can these light bulbs be marginally resolved by a small telescope with a 4.5
andrezito [222]

Answer:

R = 1.2295 10⁵  m

Explanation:

After reading your problem they give us the diameter of the lens d = 4.50 cm = 0.0450 m, therefore if we use the Rayleigh criterion for the resolution in the diffraction phenomenon, we have that the minimum separation occurs in the first minimum of diffraction of one of the bodies m = 1 coincides with the central maximum of the other body

            θ = 1.22 λ / D

where the constant 1.22 leaves the resolution in polar coordinates and D is the lens aperture

             

how angles are measured in radians

          θ = y / R

where y is the separation of the two bodies (bulbs) y = 2 m and R the distance from the bulbs to the lens

            \frac{y}{R} = 1.22 \frac{ \lambda}{D}

            R = \frac{ y \ D}{1.22 \lambda}

let's calculate

            R = \frac{ 2 \ 0.045}{ 1.22 \ 600 \ 10^{-9}}

            R = 1.2295 10⁵  m

A car of mass 1500 kg is negotiating a flat circular curve of radius 50 m with a speed of 20 m/s.
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. The source of centripetal force on the car is  (3) the static friction force.

b. ac = v²/R = (20²)/50 = 8 m/s²

c.  Fc = m(ac) = 1500(8) = 12 kN

d. μ = Fc/N = Fc/mg = 12000 / 1500(9.8) = 0.8163... ≈ 0.82
