How do you relate and explain a planet's distance from the Sun to things like the time of their year & their average tempare

What we call a "year" is the time a body takes to complete one orbital revolution
in its path around the sun.  The way gravity works, the farther a planet is from the
sun, the slower it moves, and the longer it takes to complete that trip.  So, farther
out from the sun means a longer "year".

Everybody knows that if you want to get more warmth, then you have to stand closer
to the fire, and it's the same with planets.  The farther a planet is from the sun, the less
heat it gets from the sun, and in most cases, that means its average temperature is
lower. (The planet's average temperature is affected by other things besides its distance
from the sun, such as how much heat comes up from inside, and how much heat its
atmosphere traps.)

The farther a planet's rotation axis is tilted from being perpendicular to the plane
of its orbit, the more seasonal variation there can be in the temperature at any one
place on its surface.  Of course, this is kind of irrelevant if the planet has no surface.

The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. the car slows uniformly with acceleration of -5.9
Hatshy [7]
Let u =  the speed of the car at the instant when braking begins.

The braking distance is s = 62.3 m, the acceleration is a = -5.9 m/s², and the braking duration is t = 4.15 s.

Use the formula s = ut + (1/2)at² to obtain
(u m/s)*(4.15 s) + 0.5*(-5.9 m/s²)*(4.5 s)² = (62.3 m)
4.15u = 62.3 + 50.8064 = 113.1064
      u = 27.2546 m/s

Let v m/s be the speed with which the car strikes the tree.
Then
v = 27.2546 - 5.9*4.15
   = 2.7696 m/s

Answer: 2.77 m/s (nearest hundredth)

A solid sphere of radius 40.0cm has a total positive charge of 26.0μC uniformly distributed throughout its volume. Calculate the
Rudiy27

The magnitude of the electric field for 60 cm is 6.49 × 10^5 N/C

R(radius of the solid sphere)=(60cm)( 1m /100cm)=0.6m

Q\;(\text{total charge of the solid sphere})=(26\;\mathrm{\mu C})\left(\dfrac{1\;\mathrm{C}}{10^6\;\mathrm{\mu C}} \right)={26\times 10^{-6}\;\mathrm{C}}

Since the Gaussian sphere of radius r>R encloses all the charge of the sphere similar to the situation in part (c), we can use Equation (6) to find the magnitude of the electric field:

E=\dfrac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_0 r^2}

Substitute numerical values:

E&=\dfrac{24\times 10^{-6}}{4\pi (8.8542\times 10^{-12})(0.6)}\\ &={6.49\times 10^5\;\mathrm{N/C}\;\text{directed radially outward}}}

The spherical Gaussian surface is chosen so that it is concentric with the charge distribution.

As an example, consider a charged spherical shell S of negligible thickness, with a uniformly distributed charge Q and radius R. We can use Gauss's law to find the magnitude of the resultant electric field E at a distance r from the center of the charged shell. It is immediately apparent that for a spherical Gaussian surface of radius r < R the enclosed charge is zero: hence the net flux is zero and the magnitude of the electric field on the Gaussian surface is also 0 (by letting QA = 0 in Gauss's law, where QA is the charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface).

Sound is a type of mechanical wave and must have a medium through which to travel. Sound will move at different speeds when whic
Alex787 [66]
Hey there!

The answer would be B. The sound moves from air to water.

Sound travels through different mediums. It goes fastest in solids, a little slower in liquids, and slowest in air. Sound is a very fast wave, but remember that mediums can differ that. In a vacuum space, there is no sound at all. (ex. outer space)

Hope this helps !

A microphone is located on the line connecting two speakers that are 0.513 m apart and oscillating in phase. The microphone is 1
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

frequency 1 = 334.30 Hz

frequency 2 = 1002.92 Hz

Explanation:

Given data

speaker distance y = 0.513 m

microphone distance D = 1.80 m

to find out

lowest two frequencies

solution

we know velocity of sound is 343 m/s

so we consider point x

so at 1st speaker distance from x   = D + (y/2)

1st speaker distance from x   = 1.80 + (0.513/2) = 2.0565 m   .....1

and

at 2nd speaker distance from x   = D - (y/2)

2nd speaker distance from x   = 1.80 - (0.513/2) = 1.5435 m     .........2

so destructive interference from 1 and 2  we know

1st - 2nd = ( m + 0.5 ) wavelength

2.0565 m - 1.5435 m = (  0+ 0.5) wavelength

wavelength  = 1.026 m

so here 1st min frequency will be

frequency 1 = velocity of sound / wavelength

frequency 1 = 343 / 1.026 =334.30 Hz

and

2nd  min frequency will be

frequency 2 =

2.0565 m - 1.5435 m = (  1 + 0.5) wavelength

wavelength  = 0.342 m

frequency 2 =  velocity of sound / wavelength

frequency 2 = 343 / 0.342 = 1002.92 Hz

olga_2 [115]

The correct option to the question is Matter.

Matter makes up everything. matter can be solid, liquid, or gas. matter is made up of atoms, or tiny particles that are the smallest unit of matter.

Moreover, Matter can be described as,

Matter is anything that has occupies space (has mass and volume).
