Answer:

Less than Mercury's

Explanation:

According to third Kepler's law, the square of the planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of the average orbital radius of the planet's orbit. The constant of proportionality depends only on the mass of the star, recall that 51 Peg has the same mass as the Sun. Since the orbital period of this planet is less than Mercury's, its average orbital radius is less than Mercury's.

postnew [5]
The density of silver is ρ = 10500 kg/m³ approximately.

Given:
m = 1.70 kg, the mass of silver
t = 3.0 x 10⁻⁷ m, the thickness of the sheet

Let A be the area.
Then, by definition,
m = (t*A)*ρ

Therefore
A = m/(t*ρ)
    = (1.7 kg)/ [(3.0 x 10⁻⁷ m)*(10500 kg/m³)]
    = 539.7 m²

Answer: 539.7 m²

stira [4]

Answer:

a) Diffusion  coefficient, D = 1.5 in/hr

b) Mean jump frequency, f = 0.0833 Hz

Explanation:

a) The relationship between the diffusion coefficient, time and mean displacement and can be given by the expression:

^{2} = 2Dt..........(1)

Where <r> = mean displacement

D = Diffusion coefficient

t = time = 12 hrs

sum of the squares of the distance divided by 100 is 36 in2.

<r>²= 36 in²

Substituting these values into equation (1) above

36 = 2 * D *12\\36 = 24 D\\D = 36/24\\D = 1.5 in/hr

b) Mean jumping distance, <r> = 0.1 inches

Applying equation (1) again

Where D = 1.5 in/hr

^{2} = 2Dt

0.1^{2}  = 2 * 1.5t\\0.01 = 3t\\t = 0.01/3\\t = 0.0033 hrs\\t = 0.0033 * 3600\\t = 12 seconds

The mean jump frequency, f = 1/t

f = 1/12

f = 0.0833 Hz

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Compression ratio = 24.42

Explanation:

From Thermodynamic,

Adiabatic Equation ⇒ TV^{γ-1} = Constant.

⇒T₁V₁^{γ-1}  = T₂V₂^{γ-1} ..................(1)

Where T₁= initial Temperature, V₁ = Initial Volume, T₂ = final Temperature, V₂ = Final Volume.

Given:  T₁= 18°C we convert to  Kelvin(K) by adding 273.

∴      T₁= 18°C + 273 = 291K

        T₂ = 733° C  also,we convert to  Kelvin(K) by adding 273

 ∴      T₂ = 733° C +273 =1046K

          γ = 7/5

 ∴ Rearranging equation(1), we have

    (T₁/T₂) = (V₂/V₁)^{γ-1}................(2)

also rearranging equation(2) we have

   (V₁/V₂)^{γ-1} = (T₂/T₁).

Where (V₁/V₂) = Compression ratio.

∴ (V₁/V₂)^{(7/5)-1} =( 1046/291)

simplifying the index in the equation

I.e (7/5)-1 = (7-5 )/5 = 2/5.

(V₁/V₂)^2/5 =(1046/291)^2/5

Multiplying the power on both side of the equation by 5/2.

∴(V₁/V₂)^(2/5)×(5/2) = (1046/291)^(5/2)

⇒ V₁/V₂= (1046/291)^2.5=( 3.59)^2.5

    V₁/V₂ = 24.42.

∴ Compression ratio = 24.42
