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.

2. Below what depth would a submarine have to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves with a wavelength of 24 m
Travka [436]

<u>Answer:</u> Below 12m of depth, the submarine has to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves

<u>Explanation:</u>

To avoid the surface waves, a submarine has to submerge below the wave base. It is the position below which the motion of the waves is negligible.

This wave base is equal to half of the wavelength. The equation becomes:

Wave base = \frac{\text{Wavelength}}{2}

We are given:

Wavelength = 24 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Wave base = \frac{24m}{2}=12m

Hence, below 12m of depth, the submarine has to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves

A thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel is subjected to an internal gauge pressure, p=75 psip=75 psi. It had a wall thickness
Mekhanik [1.2K]

To solve this problem we must apply the concept related to the longitudinal effort and the effort of the hoop. The effort of the hoop is given as

\sigma_h = \frac{Pd}{2t}

Here,

P = Pressure

d = Diameter

t = Thickness

At the same time the longitudinal stress is given as,

\sigma_l = \frac{Pd}{4t}

The letters have the same meaning as before.

Then he hoop stress would be,

\sigma_h = \frac{Pd}{2t}

\sigma_h = \frac{75 \times 8}{2\times 0.25}

\sigma_h = 1200psi

And the longitudinal stress would be

\sigma_l = \frac{Pd}{4t}

\sigma_l = \frac{75\times 8}{4\times 0.25}

\sigma_l = 600Psi

The Mohr's circle is attached in a image to find the maximum shear stress, which is given as

\tau_{max} = \frac{\sigma_h}{2}

\tau_{max} = \frac{1200}{2}

\tau_{max} = 600Psi

Therefore the maximum shear stress in the pressure vessel when it is subjected to this pressure is 600Psi
