<span>The inner planets (in order of distance from the sun, closest to furthest) are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. After an asteroid belt comes the outer planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The interesting thing is, in some other planetary systems discovered, the gas giants are actually quite close to the sun</span>

Answer:

vₐ = v_c $( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )$

Explanation:

To calculate the escape velocity let's use the conservation of energy

starting point. On the surface of the planet

Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v_c² - G Mm / R

final point. At a very distant point

Em_f = U = - G Mm / R₂

energy is conserved

Em₀ = Em_f

½ m v_c² - G Mm / R = - G Mm / R₂

v_c² = 2 G M (1 /R - 1 /R₂)

if we consider the speed so that it reaches an infinite position R₂ = ∞

v_c = $\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }$

now indicates that the mass and radius of the planet changes slightly

M ’= M + ΔM = M ( $1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M}$ )

R ’= R + ΔR = R ( $1 + \frac{\Delta R}{R}$ )

we substitute

vₐ = $\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} } \ \frac{\sqrt{1+ \frac{\Delta M}{M} } }{ \sqrt{1+ \frac{ \Delta R}{R} } }$

let's use a serial expansion

√(1 ±x) = 1 ± ½ x +…

we substitute

vₐ = v_ c ( $(1 + \frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta M}{M} ) \ ( 1 - \frac{1}{2} \frac{\Delta R}{R} )$ )

we make the product and keep the terms linear

vₐ = v_c $( \ 1 + \frac{1}{2} ( \frac{\Delta M}{M} - \frac{\Delta R}{R}) \ )$

A person standing a certain distance from four identical loudspeakers is hearing a sound level intensity of 125 dB. What sound l

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

$\mathbf{\beta = 123.75 \ dB}$

Explanation:

From the question, using the expression:

$125 \ dB = 10 \ log (\dfrac{I}{I_o})$

where;

$I_o = 10^{-12} \ W/m^2$

$I = 10^{12.5} \times 10^{-12} \ W/m^2$

$I = 3.162 \ W/m^2$

This is a combined intensity of 4 speakers.

Thus, the intensity of 3 speakers = $\dfrac{3.162\times 3}{4}$

= 2.372 W/m²

Thus;

$\beta = 10 \ log ( \dfrac{2.372}{10^{-12}} ) \ W/m^2$

$\mathbf{\beta = 123.75 \ dB}$

Some one help my science homework is due tomorrow and I'm so stuck with question 8-9, and 11-12

yuradex [85]

Off the top of my head, I only know 9 and 11, so I'll answer those two.

9) A heterotroph is an organism that relies on other organisms for food/energy
An autotroph can produce its own food from inorganic compounds (light)

11) Vascular plants have specialized tubes for transporting nutrients
Nonvascular plants do not have such tubes and are simpler

Un the way to the moon, the Apollo astro-

kherson [118]

Answer:

Distance = 345719139.4[m]; acceleration = 3.33*10^{19} [m/s^2]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's universal gravitation law.

In the attached image we can find a schematic of the locations of the Earth and the moon and that the sum of the distances re plus rm will be equal to the distance given as initial data in the problem rt = 3.84 × 108 m

$r_{e} = distance earth to the astronaut [m].\\r_{m} = distance moon to the astronaut [m]\\r_{t} = total distance = 3.84*10^8[m]$

Now the key to solving this problem is to establish a point of equalisation of both forces, i.e. the point where the Earth pulls the astronaut with the same force as the moon pulls the astronaut.

Mathematically this equals:

$F_{e} = F_{m}\\F_{e} =G*\frac{m_{e} *m_{a}}{r_{e}^{2} } \\$

$F_{m} =G*\frac{m_{m}*m_{a} }{r_{m} ^{2} } \\where:\\G = gravity constant = 6.67*10^{-11}[\frac{N*m^{2} }{kg^{2} } ] \\m_{e}= earth's mass = 5.98*10^{24}[kg]\\ m_{a}= astronaut mass = 100[kg]\\m_{m}= moon's mass = 7.36*10^{22}[kg]$

When we match these equations the masses cancel out as the universal gravitational constant

$G*\frac{m_{e} *m_{a} }{r_{e}^{2} } = G*\frac{m_{m} *m_{a} }{r_{m}^{2} }\\\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e}^{2} } = \frac{m_{m} }{r_{m}^{2} }$

To solve this equation we have to replace the first equation of related with the distances.

$\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e}^{2} } = \frac{m_{m} }{r_{m}^{2} } \\\frac{5.98*10^{24} }{(3.84*10^{8}-r_{m} )^{2} } = \frac{7.36*10^{22} }{r_{m}^{2} }\\81.25*r_{m}^{2}=r_{m}^{2}-768*10^{6}* r_{m}+1.47*10^{17} \\80.25*r_{m}^{2}+768*10^{6}* r_{m}-1.47*10^{17} =0$

Now, we have a second-degree equation, the only way to solve it is by using the formula of the quadratic equation.

$r_{m1,2}=\frac{-b+- \sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c } }{2*a}\\ where:\\a=80.25\\b=768*10^{6} \\c = -1.47*10^{17} \\replacing:\\r_{m1,2}=\frac{-768*10^{6}+- \sqrt{(768*10^{6})^{2}-4*80.25*(-1.47*10^{17}) } }{2*80.25}\\\\r_{m1}= 38280860.6[m] \\r_{m2}=-2.97*10^{17} [m]$

We work with positive value

rm = 38280860.6[m] = 38280.86[km]

<u>Second part</u>

<u />

The distance between the Earth and this point is calculated as follows:

re = 3.84 108 - 38280860.6 = 345719139.4[m]

Now the acceleration can be found as follows:

$a = G*\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e} ^{2} } \\a = 6.67*10^{11} *\frac{5.98*10^{24} }{(345.72*10^{6})^{2} } \\a=3.33*10^{19} [m/s^2]$

A student walks (2.9±0.1)m, stops and then walks another (3.9 ±0.2)m in the same directionWith the given uncertainties, what is

Anika [276]

Answer:

The smallest distance the student that the student could be possibly be from the starting point is 6.5 meters.

Explanation:

For 2 quantities A and B represented as

$A\pm \Delta A$ and $B\pm \Delta B$

The sum is represented as

$Sum=(A+B)\pm (\Delta A+\Delta B)$

For the the values given to us the sum is calculated as

$Sum=(2.9+3.9)\pm (0.1+0.2)$

$Sum=6.8\pm 0.3$

Now the since the uncertainity inthe sum is $\pm 0.3$

The closest possible distance at which the student can be is obtained by taking the negative sign in the uncertainity

Thus closest distance equals $6.8-0.3=6.5$ meters
