<span>Venus goes around faster than Earth, so its period must be less than Earths 1.0 years. That eliminates the first two answers. My recollection is that T^2 = k r^3, relating period of orbit to radius, so T should be (0.72/1.00)^3/2 = 0.61 of the Earths period, so 0.62 is ans. </span>

Answer: 0.39 years (Venus orbits the Sun in 0.62 Earth years)

Explanation:

The orbital period is related to the distance of the planet from the star as:

T² = R³

where T is in years and R is in AU.

<u>Orbital period of Venus:</u>

T² = (0.72)³

⇒ T = 0.62 years

<u>Orbital period of Earth </u>

T² = (1.0)³

⇒T = 1 year

The difference between the orbital periods of Venus and Earth is: (1 -0.62) = 0.38 years. Venus orbits the Sun in 0.62 Earth years.

A vehicle with a manual transaxle can be cranked and started without depressing the clutch pedal. Technician A says the clutch i
SashulF [63]

Answer: Technician B

Explanation: In manual cars,the clutch safety is designed to stop the vehicle from moving when you start the gnition. It prevents power from flowing into the circuit . This is found in the pedal mechanism of cars so depressing the clutch pedal will likely cause a defective in the clutch safety. You will begin to perceive the clutch burning and white fumes coming out from the pedal.

Which measure of an earthquake depends on how close you are to the focus?
Vsevolod [243]
<span>The intensity of an earthquake is dependent on one's proximity to the focus of the quake, also called the "epicenter" and is based on observations of the shaking of the ground on humans, structures, and the natural landscape.</span>

9. A balloon is filled with 1000 cm3 of a gas weighing 1000 g. Will it rise or fall when it is released?
torisob [31]

We can calculate the density of the balloon as follows:

\rho=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{1000g}{1000cm^3}=\frac{1g}{cm^3}

Therefore, the balloon will fall

Since the density of air is about 0.00123 g/cm^3 , the balloon is much more dense than the surrounding air. As a result, the balloon weighs more than the air that it displaces so the balloon will fall.
