In your question, this function is supposed to be in the little space after the word "function":

(square of the orbital period) = k · (cube of the distance from the sun)

' k ' is the same number for every solar-system object

To answer the question, we first have to find out what ' k ' is.  Since it's the same number for every planet in our solar system, we can find ' k ' for the Earth, and then use it for the mystery planet.

Period = 1 Earth year

Distance = 1 Astronomical unit

P² = k · D³

1² = k · 1³

k = 1  

Now for the mystery planet:  

P² = k · D³

P² = 1 · (6.76)³

P² = 308.9 Earth years²

P = √308.9

<em>P = 17.58 Earth years</em>

Answer: The planet will take 17.58 earth years

Explanation:

Mass of the sun = 1 Solar

Time period  of planet = T

Distance between the earth and planet = 6.67 AU

G = gravitation constant = 39.478 AU^3 y^{-2} MS^{-1}

Using Kepler's third law:

T^2=\frac{4\pi^2}{G M_{sun}}\times r^3

T^2=\frac{4\times 3.14\times 3.14}{39.478 AU^3 y^{-2} MS^{-1}\times 1 MS}\times (6.76 AU)^3

T^2=308.605 y^2

T = 17.567156 years

The closest answer from the option is 17.58 years

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

0.75

Explanation:

Since the static frictional force is the maximum force applied just before sliding, our frictional force, F is 300 N.

Since F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = normal force = 400 N (which is the downward force applied against the surface).

So, μ = F/N

= 300 N/400 N

= 3/4

= 0.75

So, the  coefficient of static friction μ = 0.75

The linear impulse delivered by the hit of a boxer is 202 N · s during the 0.244 s of contact. What is the magnitude of the aver
zlopas [31]

Answer: Magnitude of the average force exerted on the glove by the other boxer is 827.86 N (approximately 828 N).

Explanation: Impulse is defined as the force acting on an object for a short period or interval of time.

Mathematically it is given by the relation:

Impulse = Force \times Time

According to the numerical values given in the question, I = 202 Ns and T = 0.244 s

So, Force F = \frac{Impulse}{Time} = \frac{202}{0.244} = 827.86 N

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the glove by the other boxer is 827.86 N (approximately 828 N).

A bat strikes a 0.145-kg baseball. Just before impact, the ball is traveling horizontally to the right at 60.0 m/s , and it leav
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

F = -307.4 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.145 kg

Initial speed of the baseball, u = 60 m/s

Final speed of the baseball, v=65\ cos(30)=56.29\ m/s

Time of contact, t=1.75\ ms=1.75\times 10^{-3}\ s

(a) It is assumed to find the horizontal component of average force. It is given by :

F=m\dfrac{v-u}{t}

F=0.145\dfrac{56.29-60}{1.75\times 10^{-3}}

F = -307.4 N

So, the horizontal component of average force is 307.4 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
