C. one complete spin on its axis because the rotation is referring to the planet's period of rotation. D is called a revolution. B determines the seasons on the planets. A is called an ellipse.

Answer:

C. one complete spin on its axis            

Explanation:

A planet rotates about its axis as well as revolves around the star which is at the center of the star system, of which the planet is part of. In solar system, the 8 planets revolve around the Sun.

Period of rotation refers to the one complete spin of the planet about its axis. Period of revolution refers to the one complete orbit around the Sun.

For example, the Earth rotates about its axis in 24 hours where as it revolves around the Sun in 365 days.

Select the phrases that correctly describe density. Density is a chemical property. Density relates a mass to its volume. Densit
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Density relates a mass to its volume.

Density varies with temperature

Density determines if a substance floats or sinks.

Density may have units of grams per milliliter (g/mL)

Explanation:

Density D is a characteristic property of a substance or material and is defined as the relationship between the mass m of a body or substance and the volume V it occupies:

D=\frac{m}{V}

This means the density is inversely proportional to the volume.

On the other hand, density is a scalar quantity and according to the International System of Units its unit is D=\frac{kg}{m^{3}} , although it can be also expressed in \frac{g}{ml}.

It should be noted that the density of a body is related to its buoyancy, a substance or body will float on another fluid if its density is lower. In addition, if the pressure of the substance remains constant, as the temperature increases, the density decreases; this means density varies with the temperature as well.

Micah knows that a car had a change in velocity of 15 m/s.To determine acceleration ,Micah also needs the blank of the total tri
Fittoniya [83]

Answer: To determine acceleration ,Micah also needs the Time of the total trip in seconds.

Explanation:

Acceleration can be defined as rate of change of velocity.

a = \frac{dv}{dt}

for calculating acceleration, initial and final velocity are required in meter per second and the total time of the trip in seconds. Then acceleration is measured in meter per second square.

Thus, Micah knows that a car had a change in velocity of 15 m/s.To determine acceleration ,Micah also needs the <u>Time</u> of the total trip in seconds.
