Answer:

Sputnik I.

Explanation:

The Soviet Union (former) launched the first artificial earth satellite called Sputnik I on October 4, 1957.

It had a diameter of 58 cm and it weighed 83.6 kg. It had an orbital period of 5880 seconds around the earth. It orbited the 11 weeks (officially 3 weeks but then, its battery died and it orbited for 8 weeks before falling back into the earth's atmosphere).

If R is the total resistance for a parallel circuit with two resistors of resistance r1 and r2, then . Find the resistance, r1,
Goshia [24]
For a parallel circuit with two resistors, the total resistance is calculated from the expression:

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2

We are given the total resistance, R, which is 20 ohms and R2 which is 75 ohms. We calculate R1 as follows:

1/20 = 1/R1 + 1/75
1/R1 = 11/300
R1 = 27.27 ohms

The astronomer who discovered the dwarf planet Eris suggests there might be another object far beyond the Kupier belt. If this P
PolarNik [594]

These objects would be classified as extreme trans Neptunian object (ETNO).

Explanation:

ETNO’s are the objects lying beyond the planet Neptune and orbiting the Sun. They follow a highly eccentric path which is tilted. ETNO has been grouped into three major according to their respective perihelia.  

Within this region (beyond Neptune’s orbit), a hypothetical planet has been discovered. It was discovered following its gravitational effect on the other objects of Kuiper Belt (region beyond the orbit of the Neptune- the last planet of our Solar system)

The Planet is assumed to be around 2 times the Earth’s size and around 10 times heavier than Earth.

A cyclist going downhill is accelerating at 1. 2 m/s2. If the final velocity of the cyclist is 16 m/s after 10 seconds, what is
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf v_i= 4 \ m/s}}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the cyclist's initial velocity. We are given the acceleration, final velocity, and time, so we will use the following kinematic equation.

v_f= v_i + at

The cyclist is acceleration at 1.2 meters per second squared. After 10 seconds, the velocity is 16 meters per second.

  • v_f= 16 m/s
  • a= 1.2 m/s²
  • t= 10 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

16 \ m/s = v_i + (1.2 \ m/s^2)(10 \ s)

Multiply.

16 \ m/s = v_i + (1.2 \ m/s^2 * 10 \ s)

16 \ m/s = v_i + 12 \ m/s

We are solving for the initial velocity, so we must isolate the variable v_i. Subtract 12 meters per second from both sides of the equation.

16 \ m/s - 12 \ m/s = v_i + 12 \ m/s -12 \ m/s

4 \ m/s = v_i

The cyclist's initial velocity is <u>4 meters per second.</u>

Consider a container of oxygen gas at a temperature of 23°C that is 1.00 m tall. Compare the gravitational potential energy of a
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Yes, it is reasonable to neglect it.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, a single molecule of oxygen weights 32 g (diatomic oxygen) thus, the mass of kilograms is (consider Avogadro's number):

m=1molec*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}molec} *\frac{32g}{1mol}*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=5.31x10^{-26}kg

After that, we compute the potential energy 1.00 m above the reference point:

U=mhg=5.31x10^{-26}kg*1.00m*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}=5.2x10^{-25}J

Then, we compute the average kinetic energy at the specified temperature:

K=\frac{3}{2}\frac{R}{Na}T

Whereas N_A stands for the Avogadro's number for which we have:

K=\frac{3}{2} \frac{8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}}{6.022x10^{23}/mol}*(23+273)K\\ \\K=6.13x10^{-21}J

In such a way, since the average kinetic energy energy is about 12000 times higher than the potential energy, it turns out reasonable to neglect the potential energy.

Regards.
