Answer:

Explanation:

We know that,

Neptune is 4.5×10^9 km from the sun

And given that,

Earth is 1.5×10^8km from sun

Then,

Let P be the orbital period and

Let a be the semi-major axis

Using Keplers third law

Then, the relation between the orbital period and the semi major axis is

P² ∝ a³

Then,

P² = ka³

P²/a³ = k

So,

P(earth)²/a(earth)³ = P(neptune)² / a(neptune)³

Period of earth P(earth) =1year

Semi major axis of earth is

a(earth) = 1.5×10^8km

The semi major axis of Neptune is

a (Neptune) = 4.5×10^9km

So,

P(E)²/a(E)³ = P(N)² / a(N)³

1² / (1.5×10^8)³ = P(N)² / (4.5×10^9)³

Cross multiply

P(N)² = (4.5×10^9)³ / (1.5×10^8)³

P(N)² = 27000

P(N) =√27000

P(N) = 164.32years

The period of Neptune is 164.32years

A car is traveling at 7.0 m/s when the driver applies the brakes. The car moves 1.5 m before it comes to a complete stop. If the
viva [34]

Answer:

d. 6.0 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 7.0 m/s

distance traveled by the car, d = 1.5 m

Assuming the car to be decelerating at a constant rate when the brakes were applied;

v² = u² + 2(-a)s

v² = u² - 2as

where;

v is the final velocity of the car when it stops

0 = u² - 2as

2as = u²

a = u² / 2s

a = (7)² / (2 x 1.5)

a = 16.333 m/s

When the velocity is 14 m/s

v² = u² - 2as

0 = u² - 2as

2as = u²

s = u² / 2a

s = (14)² / (2 x 16.333)

s = 6.0 m

Therefore, If the car had been moving at 14 m/s, it would have traveled 6.0 m before stopping.

The correct option is d

Given f(x)=3x-11 which of the following is f(7)<br><br> A. 10<br> B. 32<br> C. -6<br> D. 6
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The answer is A. 10

Explanation:

<em>Given </em>

<em>f(</em><em>x</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>1</em>

<em>So, </em><em> </em>

<em>f(</em><em>7</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>*</em><em> </em><em>7</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>1</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>1</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>0</em>

Add these two velocity vectors to find the magnitude of their resultant vector.
hammer [34]

The  magnitude of their resultant vector is 4.6 meters/seconds

Since we are to add the  velocity vectors in order to  find the magnitude of their resultant vector.

Hence:

Resultant vector magnitude=5.8 meters/seconds + (1.2 meters/seconds)

Resultant vector magnitude=5.8 meters/seconds-1.2 meters/seconds

Resultant vector magnitude 4.6 meters/seconds

Inconclusion The  magnitude of their resultant vector is 4.6 meters/seconds

Please Help On These 2 Questions!!!!! I severely need help!!!!!!
lys-0071 [83]
3. In a uniform electric field, the equation for the magnitude of the magnetic field is E=(V/d). V= voltage d= distance. If the magnetic field magnitude is constant , as stated in your problem, then the voltage must stay the same otherwise the value of "E" would change". And the problem already told us the "E" is uniform and so, not changing. Does that make sense?

4a. If the magnetic field lines are equally spaced apart, in other words share the same density. Then we know that the magnitude of the magnetic field is unchanging. This is because the density of of the magnetic field lines(how many are in a certain area) is related to the magnitude being expressed by the electric field. Greater magnitude is expressed by the presence of more lines (higher line density) 

4b. The electric potential is measured in Volts(V) and is uniform along  the same equipotential line. What is an equipotential line(gray)? It is a line drawn perpendicular(forms a right angle with) to the magnetic field lines(black) to show the changes in electric potential. One space where electric potential will always be the same because it will always be equal to 0 Volts is exactly in between a positive and negative charges of equal charge value I have pointed to this line with a purple arrow in my picture.

I really hope this makes sense to you and that my pictures help! :)
