Physics
2 answers:
faust18 [17]3 years ago

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

  • Venus Express (2005 - 14)
  • Galileo (1989 - 90): As it flew by Venus on its way to Jupiter, it collected measurements of charged particles, dust and magnetism, infrared and ultraviolet spectral observation, data for infrared lower - atmosphere maps, and 81 camera images
  • Magellan (1989 - 90)
  • Vega 1 (1984 - 85)
  • Vega 2 (1984 - 85)
  • Venera 4 (1964): Atmosphere made up of entirely carbon dioxide, found that temperatures ranged from 40 degrees Celsius high up in the atmosphere to 280 degrees Celsius closer to the surface, and pressures ranged 15 to 22 atmospheres
  • Venera 6 (1969)
  • Venera 7 (1970): Became first spacecraft to return data from another planet and reported surface temperature of 475 degrees Celsius and atmospheric pressure 90 times greater than Earth's
  • Venera 8 (1972)
  • Venera 9 (1975)
  • Venera 10 (1975): Transmitted images from the surface
  • Venera 11 (1978): Sent back evidence of thunder and lightning as well as presence of carbon monoxide in lower altitude
  • Venera 12 (1978)
  • Venera 13 (1981 - 82): Returned first color images and found out the pressure was  84 times the pressure at sea level on Earth and the temperature was 457 degrees Celsius, before succumbing to them
  • Venera 14 (1981 - 82): Sent back images of Venus
  • Venera 15 (1983): Created radar map of Venus with Venera 16
  • Venera 16 (1983)
  • Pioneer Venus 1 (1978): Radar mapped nearly the entire planet, resolving features as small as 80 kilometers
  • Pioneer Venus 2 (1978): Consisted of 4 separate atmospheric probes
  • Mariner 2 (1962): Flyby attempt discovered ground temperatures as high as 428 degrees Celsius, but detected no water vapor or evidence of a magnetic field around planet
  • Mariner 5 (1967): During flyby, measured surface temperature of 267 degrees Celsius
  • Mariner 10 (1973 - 74): Took first ultraviolet images of Venus on way to Mercury
  • Akatsuki/Venus Climate Orbiter (2010 - today)

These are just some of the successful attempts by probes at or near Venus.

Answer:

Explanation:

The other answer misses the most recent Venus mission: the Parker Solar Probe. It was launched by NASA in 2018 for observing the Sun. On its way there, the probe is doing several fly-bys to Venus; using the planet for gravity assist propelling it to the Sun.

Because its primary mission is to investigate the Sun, the Parker Solar Probe does not have a lot of researches planned for Venus.

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor = how
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor are equivalent to 6 drinks.

Explanation:

In the United States, a standard "drink" of beer has 12 ounces, a standard "drink" of wine has 5 ounces and standard drink of liquor has 1.5 ounces. Then, we obtain the quantity of drinks by dividing the total volume of each drink by its respective unit volume and summing each term. That is:

N = \frac{12\,oz}{12\,\frac{oz}{dr} }+\frac{12\,oz}{5\,\frac{oz}{dr} }+\frac{3\,oz}{1.5\,\frac{oz}{dr} }

N = 1\,dr+2.4\,dr+2\,dr

N = 5.4\,dr

N = 6\,dr

12 ounces of beer plus 12 ounces of wine plus 3 ounces of liquor are equivalent to 6 drinks.

An object is thrown directly downward from the top of a very tall building. The speed of the object just as it is released is 17
Softa [21]

Answer:

distance cover is  = 102.53 m

Explanation:

Given data:

speed of object is 17.1 m/s

t_1 = 3.32 sec

t_2 = 5.08 sec

from equation of motion we know that

d_1 = vt_1 + \frac{1}{2} gt_1^2

where d_1 is distance covered in time t1

sod_1 = 17.1 \times 3.32 + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 \times 3.32^2=

d_1 = 110.78 m

d_2 = vt_2 + \frac{1}{2} gt_2^2

where d_2 is distance covered in time t2

d_2 = 17.1 \times 5.08 + \frac{1}{2}\times9.8 \times 5.08^2

d_2 = 213.31 m

distance cover is  = 213.31 - 110.78 = 102.53 m

How does a generator work?
insens350 [35]

An electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy obtained from an external source into electrical energy as the output.

It is important to understand that a generator does not actually ‘create’ electrical energy. Instead, it uses the mechanical energy supplied to it to force the movement of electric charges present in the wire of its windings through an external electric circuit. This flow of electric charges constitutes the output electric current supplied by the generator. This mechanism can be understood by considering the generator to be analogous to a water pump, which causes the flow of water but does not actually ‘create’ the water flowing through it.

The modern-day generator works on the principle of electromagnetic induction discovered by Michael Faraday in 1831-32. Faraday discovered that the above flow of electric charges could be induced by moving an electrical conductor, such as a wire that contains electric charges, in a magnetic field. This movement creates a voltage difference between the two ends of the wire or electrical conductor, which in turn causes the electric charges to flow, thus generating electric current.

The density of nuclear matter is about 1018 kg/m3. Given that 1 mL is equal in volume to 1 cm3, what is the density of nuclear m
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

density is 10^{6} Mg/µL

Explanation:

given data

density of nuclear = 10^{18} kg/m³

1 ml = 1 cm³

to find out

density of nuclear matter in Mg/µL

solution

we know here

1 Mg = 1000 kg

so

1 m³ is equal to 10^{6} cm³

and here 1 cm³ is equal to  1 mL

so we can say 1 mL is equal to 10³ µL

so by these we can convert density

density = 10^{18} kg/m³

density = 10^{18} kg/m³ × \frac{10^{-3} }{10^{6} }  Mg/µL

density =  10^{6} Mg/µL
