Part 1: What are the two groups of planets based on composition?

1 answer:

3 0

The two groups of planets based on their composition are the terrestrial planets, and the jovian planets. The terrestrial planets are small, and their composition is different than that of the jovian planets. The terrestrial planets have a solid iron inner core, liquid iron outer core, silicate mantle, and silicate crust. The jovian planets are also called gas giants because they are much larger and are gassy, not hard as the terrestrial planets. These planets have a silicate inner core, ice outer core, liquid metallic hydrogen layer, liquid hydrogen layer, and on the top gaseous hydrogen.

A cylinder which is in a horizontal position contains an unknown noble gas at 4.63 × 104 Pa and is sealed with a massless piston

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The change in internal energy of the system is -17746.78 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure $P=4.63\times10^{4}\ Pa$

Remove heat $\Delta U= -1.95\times10^{4}\ J$

Radius = 0.272 m

Distance d = 0.163 m

We need to calculate the internal energy

Using thermodynamics first equation

$dU=Q-W$ ...(I)

Where, dU = internal energy

Q = heat

W = work done

Put the value of W in equation (I)

$dU=Q-PdV$

Where, W = PdV

Put the value in the equation

$dU=-1.95\times10^{4}-(4.63\times10^{4}\times3.14\times(0.272)^2\times(-0.163))$

$dU=-17746.78\ J$

Hence, The change in internal energy of the system is -17746.78 J

State Newton's three laws of motion.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Newton's first law states that, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the net force and inversely related to its mass. Acceleration of an object depends on two things, force and mass.

Newton's third law states that if an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A. This law represents a certain symmetry in nature: forces always occur in pairs, and one body cannot exert a force on another without experiencing a force itself.

At the surface, atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10^5 Pa. People can normally snorkel down to a depth of roughly one meter. What

natulia [17]

Answer:

1.01 × 10⁵ Pa

Explanation:

At the surface, atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa.

We need to find the total pressure on the air in the lungs of a person to a depth of 1 meter.

Pressure at a depth is given by :

$P=\rho gh$
