When used in physical therapy, a diathermy machine gives the sensation of "deep heat" in the tissue being treated.

Calculate the orbital period of a dwarf planet found to have a semimajor axis of a = 4.0x 10^12 meters in seconds and years.

padilas [110]

Explanation:

We have,

Semimajor axis is $4\times 10^{12}\ m$

It is required to find the orbital period of a dwarf planet. Let T is time period. The relation between the time period and the semi major axis is given by Kepler's third law. Its mathematical form is given by :

$T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{GM}a^3$

G is universal gravitational constant

M is solar mass

Plugging all the values,

$T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.98\times 10^{30}}\times (4\times 10^{12})^3\\\\T=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\pi^{2}}{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.98\times10^{30}}\times(4\times10^{12})^{3}}\\\\T=4.37\times 10^9\ s$

Since,

$1\ s=3.17\times 10^{-8}\ \text{years}\\\\4.37\times 10^9\ s=4.37\cdot10^{9}\cdot3.17\cdot10^{-8}\\\\4.37\times 10^9\ s=138.52\ \text{years}$

So, the orbital period of a dwarf planet is 138.52 years.

Ultraviolet radiation is dangerous because it has a high enough energy to damage skin cells. What is the BEST explanation of the

MrRissso [65]

The answer is shorter the wavelength, higher the frequency and higher the energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The sun radiates UV energy in a wide range of wavelength, which are invisible to human eyes. The shorter the wavelength, the more energetic the radiation, and the greater the potential for harm.

The relationship between wavelength and wave energy is shorter the wavelength, higher the frequency and higher the energy.

It has a frequency ranges from 8 × 10^14 to 3 × 10^16 cycles per second, or hertz (Hz), and wavelengths id about 380 nanometers to about 10 nm.

A rowboat passenger uses an oar to push the boat off the dock by exerting a force of 60.0 N for 2.0s. What impulse acts on the b

NARA [144]

Impulse<span> is the change of momentum of an object when the object is acted upon by a force for an interval of time. It is simply calculated by the expression:
</span>
Impulse = F(change in time)
Impulse = 60(2)
Impulse = 120 Ns

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
