The pressure exerted is $2.86\cdot 10^5 Pa$

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a force on a surface is given by

$p=\frac{F}{A}$

where

p is the pressure

F is the magnitude of the force

A is the area of the surface

In this problem, we have:

F = 200 N is the force exerted (the weight of the ant)

$A=7 cm^2 = 7\cdot 10^{-4} m^2$ is the area

Therefore, the pressure exerted is:

$p=\frac{200}{7\cdot 10^{-4}}=2.86\cdot 10^5 Pa$

Answer:

$T_1=0.24y$

Explanation:

Using Kepler's third law, we can relate the orbital periods of the planets and their average distances from the Sun, as follows:

$(\frac{T_1}{T_2})^2=(\frac{D_1}{D_2})^3$

Where $T_1$ and $T_2$ are the orbital periods of Mercury and Earth respectively. We have $D_1=0.39D_2$ and $T_2=1y$ . Replacing this and solving for

$T_1^2=T_2^2(\frac{D_1}{D_2})^3\\T_1^2=(1y)^2(\frac{0.39D_2}{D_2})^3\\T_1^2=1y^2(0.39)^3\\T_1^2=0.059319y^2\\T_1=0.24y$
