Answer:

The average speed of the earth in its orbit is 29.86km/s

Explanation:

The average distance between the Earth and the Sun is 1.50x10^{8} km.

The average speed of the earth in its orbit can be found by the next equation :

v = \frac{2 \pi r}{T}  (1)

Where r is the radius and T is the period.

In this case, the orbit of the Earth can be considered as a circle

(r = 1.50x10^{8}km) instead of an ellipse.

It takes 1 year to the Earth to make one revolution around the Sun. Therefore, its period will be 365.25 days.

Notice that to express the period in terms of seconds, the following is needed:

365.25d . \frac{86400s}{1d} ⇒ 31557600s

Then, equation 1 can be used:

v = \frac{2 \pi (1.50x10^{8}km)}{31557600s}

v = 29.86km/s

Complete Question

The average distance  between earth and the sun is 1.50 x10^8 km. Calculate the average speed of the Earth in its orbit in kilometres per second.

Answer:

The value is   v  = 29.89 \ km/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  average distance  is   r  =  1.50 *10^{8} \  km

The  average speed is mathematically represented as

       v  =  \frac{2 \pi r}{t}

Here t is the time taken to circle round the  sun which is equal to 1 year

Now converting this to seconds we have

     t =  1 *  365 * 24 * 60 * 60  =  3.154*10^{7} \  s

So

       v  =  \frac{2 *3.142 *1.50 *10^{8}  }{3.154*10^{7}}

       v  = 29.89 \ km/s

I WILL MARK YOU THE BRAINLIEST
mr Goodwill [35]

Explanation:

700N right

to get the net force

you gotta let one direction be the negative ( the smaller force)

so the total force towards the left is 100N ( 60 + 40= 100)

which is smaller than the right force which is 800 N so you let 100 N be negative

so without even calculating , you can know that it will be moving towards the right because right force > left force

your add both forces ( remember 100 N is negative)

so 800N + ( - 100N)

= 700N

towards the right

hope this helps

this is just one method that helped me understand

please mark it brainliest

What is the magnitude of the electric field at a point midway between a −5.0μC and a +5.8μC charge 8.4cm apart? Assume no other
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Electric Field = E = 36.848 N/C

Explanation:

In accordance with Columb's law

E = k Q1 Q2 / r.r = 8.99 x 10^9 x 5.0 x 10^-6 x 5.8 x 10^-6 / 0.084 x 0.084

= 36948.6961 x 10^-3 = 36.848 N/C

Which statement best define percent error? check all that apply.
Art [367]

Percent error is the difference between the experimental value and theoretical value and measures the accuracy of the result found. The larger the error, lesser is the accuracy and vice versa.

Solution:

It is a mathematical way of showing accuracy

The higher the percent error, the less accurate the data set,
