As planets with a wide variety of properties are being discovered outside our solar system, astrobiologists are considering whet

her and how life could evolve on planets that might be very different from earth.One recently discovered extrasolar planet, or exoplanet, orbits a star whose mass is 0.70 times the mass of our sun.This planet has been found to have 2.3 times the earth's diameter and 7.9 times the earth's mass.For planets in this size range, computer models indicate a relationship between the planet's density and composition. Observations of this planet over time show that it is in a nearly circular orbit around its star and completes one orbit in only 9.5 days. How many times the orbital radius r of the earth around our sun is this exoplanet's orbital radius around its sun? Assume that the earth is also in a nearly circular orbit

Answer:

R₁  = 14.44 R₂

Explanation:

For sun-earth system

GMm/R² = mω²R

GM =ω²R³

GM₁ =ω₁²R₁³

For star - planet system

GM₂ =ω₂²R₂³

Dividing

M₁ / M₂ = ω₁²R₁³ / ω₂²R₂³

R₁³ /R₂³ = M₁ω₂² / ω₁²M₂

= M₁T₁²/T₂²M₂

Given

M₁ / M₂ = 1 / 0.7

T₁ = 365 days

T₂ = 9.5 days

R₁³ /R₂³ = M₁²365² /9.5² (.7M₁ )²

(R₁ /R₂)³ =365² / 9.5² X .7²

= 3012

R₁ /R₂

= 14.44

R₁  = 14.44  R₂

Object a travels in the +x-direction before hitting a stationary object
Leto [7]
The object’s resultant angle of motion with the +x-axis after the collision is 47°

<span>From object A:
 
1) x-momentum is 5.7 × 10^4 kilogram meters/second,
2) y-momentum is 6.2 × 10^4 kilogram meters/second.
 
Now, we know, tan</span>Ф = \frac{y}{x}

⇒tanФ = \frac{6.2 × 10^4 }{5.7 × 10^4}

⇒tanФ = 1.088

⇒ Ф = tan^{-1} 1.088 
         =  47.4 ≈ 47

You wish to watch TV at exactly 85 dB and no louder to avoid long term damage to your hearing. You record the sound intensity le
BigorU [14]

Answer:

1) the new power coming from the amplifier is 19.02 W

2) The distance away from the amplifier now is 5.50 m

3) u₁ = 69.24 m

Therefore have to move u₁ - u ( 69.24 - 5.50) = 63.74 farther

Explanation:

Lets say that I am at a distance "u" from the TV,

Let I₁ be the corresponding intensity of the sound at my location when sound level is 125dB

SO

S(indB) = 10log (I₁/1₀)

we substitute

125 = 10(I₁/10⁻¹²)

12.5 = log (I₁/10⁻¹²)

10^12.5 = I₁/10^-12

I₁ = 10^12.5 × 10^-12

I₁ = 10^0.5 W/m²

Now I₂ will be intensity of sound when corresponding sound level is 107 dB

107 = 10log(I₂/10⁻²)

10.7 = log(I₂/10⁻¹²)

10^10.7 = I₂ / 10^-12

I₂ = 10^10.7  ×  10^-12

I₂ = 10^-1.3 W/m²

Now since we know that

I = P/4πu² ⇒ p = 4πu²I

THEN P₁ = 4πu²I₁ and P₂ =4πu²I₂

Therefore

P₁/P₂ = I₁/I₂

WE substitute

P₂ = P₁(I₂/I₁) = 1200 × ( 10^-1.3 / 10^0.5)

P₂ = 19.02 W

the new power coming from the amplifier is 19.02 W

2)

P₁ = 4πu²I₁

u =√(p₁/4πI₁)

u = √(1200/4π × 10^0.5)

u = 5.50 m

The distance away from the amplifier now is 5.50 m

3)

Let I₃ be the intensity corresponding to required sound level 85 dB

85 = 10log(I₃/10⁻¹²)

8.5 = log (I₃/10⁻¹²)

10^8.5 = I₃ / 10^-12

I₃ = 10^8.5  × 10^-12

I₃ = 10^-3.5 w/m²

Now, I ∝ 1/u²

so I₂/I₃ = u₁²/u²

u₁ = √(I₂/I₃) × u

u₁ = √(10^-1.3 / 10^-3.5) ×  5.50

u₁ = 69.24 m

Therefore have to move u₁ - u ( 69.24 - 5.50) = 63.74 farther
