In 1996, astronomers discovered an icy object beyond pluto that was given the designation 1996 tl 66. it has a semimajor axis of
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer : 2446 years.

Explanation :

Length of semi major axis is, a=84\ au= 1.496\times 10^{11}\ m

According to Kepler's third law, square of time period of an orbit is directly proportional to the cube of the semi major axis.

i.e T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3

where G is gravitational constant

M is  mass of sun, M=1.98\times 10^{30}\ Kg

So, T^2=\dfrac{4\times (3.14)^2}{6.6\times 10^{-11}Nm^2/Kg\times 1.98\times 10^{30}\Kg}

T^2=3\times 10^{-19}\times(84\times 1.496\times 10^{11})^3

T^2=3\times 10^{-19}\times 1984415.6\times 10^{33}

T^2=59532469.8\times 10^{14}\ s

T=7715.7\times 10^7\ s

since, 1\ sec=3.17\times 10^{-8}\ years

So, orbital period is approximately 2446 years.

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 3.04 m away from a waterfall 0.585 m in heigh
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

V₀ = 5.47 m/s

Explanation:

The jumping motion of the Salmon can be modelled as the projectile motion. So, we use the formula for the range of projectile motion here:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g

where,

R = Range of Projectile = 3.04 m

θ = Launch Angle = 41.7°

V₀ = Minimum Launch Speed = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

3.04 m = V₀² [Sin2(41.7°)]/(9.81 m/s²)

V₀² = 3.04 m/(0.10126 s²/m)

V₀ = √30.02 m²/s²

<u>V₀ = 5.47 m/s</u>

During a baseball game, a batter hits a high pop-up. If the ball remains in the air for 6.22 s, how high does it rise? The accel
BigorU [14]

Answer:

47.4 m

Explanation:

When an object is thrown upward, it rises up, it reaches its maximum height, and then it goes down. The time at which it reaches its maximum height is half the total time of flight.

In this case, the time of flight is 6.22 s, so the time the ball takes to reach the maximum height is

t=\frac{6.22}{2}=3.11 s

Now we consider only the downward motion of the ball: it is a free fall motion, so we can find the vertical displacement by using the suvat equation

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the vertical displacement

u = 0 is the initial velocity

t = 3.11 s is the time

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (taking downward as positive direction)

Solving the  formula, we find

s=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(3.11)^2=47.4 m

Two teams are playing tug of war. Team A pulls to the right with a force of 450 N. Team B pulls to the left with a force of 415
motikmotik

Answer:

35 N to the right.

Explanation:

450 is going to the right so you subtract what is going against it. Which gives you 35. And because 450 is bigger than 415, it'll be going to the right.
