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.

A car owner forgets to turn off the headlights of his car while it is parked in his garage. If the 12.0-V battery in his car is
avanturin [10]

Answer: 22.6 hours

Explanation:

The power is the measure of the rate of energy.

In this problem, the 12.0 V battery is rated at 51.0 Ah, which means it delivers 51.0 A of current in a time of t = 1 h = 3600 s. The power delivered by the battery can be written as

P=IV

where

I is the current

V = 12.0 V is the voltage of the battery

So the energy delivered by the battery can be written as

E=Pt=VIt

Where

It=51.0 A\cdot h = 51.0 A \cdot 3600 s/h=183,600 A\cdot s

So the energy delivered is

E=(12.0)(183,600)=2.2\cdot 10^6 J

At the same time, the headlight consumes 27.0 W of power, so 27 Joules of energy per second; Therefore, it will remain on for a time of:

t=\frac{2.2\cdot 10^6 J}{27.0 W}=81481 s = 22.6 h

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

2 m/s^2, west

Explanation:

Vf=final velcoity

Vi=initial velocity

t=timw

a =  \frac{vf - vi}{t}

=

\frac{15 - 25}{5}

= - 2 m/s^2

The - changes direction and makes it opposite

2 m/s, west

A concave mirror has a focal length of 13.5 cm. This mirror forms an image located 37.5 cm in front of the mirror. Find the magn
77julia77 [94]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Focal length of the concave mirror, f = -13.5 cm

Image distance, v = -37.5 cm (in front of mirror)

Let u is the object distance. It can be calculated using the mirror's formula as :

\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{v}

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{(-13.5)}-\dfrac{1}{(-37.5)}

u = -21.09 cm

The magnification of the mirror is given by :

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-(-37.5)}{(-21.09)}

m = -1.77

So, the magnification produced by the mirror is (-1.77). Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of the following statements apply to electric charges?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The statement "If a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the two objects will repel " applies to electric charges.

Explanation:

There are only two types of electric charges. Both having own magnitude but different charge.

1. Positive charge

2. Negative charge

Like charges repel each other and opposite charges always attract each other.

When a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the rod and the object will repel.
