Physics
1 answer:
pogonyaev3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The enthalpy of fusion of a substance, also known as heat of fusion, is the change in its enthalpy resulting from providing energy, typically heat, to a specific quantity of the substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid, at constant pressure.

As a pole of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin in the z-plane, while its phase remains constant, the d
Rudik [331]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

When the location of the poles changes in the z-plane, the natural or resonant frequency (ω₀) changes which in turn changes the damped frequency (ωd) of the system.

As the poles of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin then natural frequency (ω₀) increases, which in turn increases damped oscillation frequency (ωd) of the system.

ωd = ω₀√(1 - ζ)

Where ζ is called damping ratio.

For small value of ζ

ωd ≈ ω₀

Use the ratio version of Kepler’s third law and the orbital information of Mars to determine Earth’s distance from the Sun. Mars
zhuklara [117]

Kepler's third law is used to determine the relationship between the orbital period of a planet and the radius of the planet.

The distance of the earth from the sun is 1.50 \times 10^{11}\;\rm m.

<h3>What is Kepler's third law?</h3>

Kepler's Third Law states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the radius of their orbits. It means that the period for a planet to orbit the Sun increases rapidly with the radius of its orbit.

T^2 \propto R^3

Given that Mars’s orbital period T is 687 days, and Mars’s distance from the Sun R is 2.279 × 10^11 m.

By using Kepler's third law, this can be written as,

T^2 \propto R^3

T^2 = kR^3

Substituting the values, we get the value of constant k for mars.

687^2 = k\times (2.279 \times 10^{11})^3

k = 3.92 \times 10^{-29}

The value of constant k is the same for Earth as well, also we know that the orbital period for Earth is 365 days. So the R is calculated as given below.

365^3 = 3.92\times 10^{-29} R^3

R^3 = 3.39 \times 10^{33}

R= 1.50 \times 10^{11}\;\rm m

Hence we can conclude that the distance of the earth from the sun is 1.50 \times 10^{11}\;\rm m.

Is it possible for one ray to be shorter in length than another?
8090 [49]
Yes, even light rays can vary in wavelength and frequency, if the length of the ray is sorter, it becomes more energetic and has a higher frequency. If you're talking about a ray tracing diagram for lenses or mirrors, the length of the ray doesn't really matter unless you're finding the path length but there are some procedures for that too. Let me know if I missed what you were asking.
