Answer:

7982 seconds

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Distance of asteroid, a = 4 AU = 5.984 * 10^8 m

Mass of sun, M = 1.9891 * 10^30 kg

Orbital period, P, is given as:

P² = (4π²a³) /(GM)

Where G = 6.6774 * 10^(-11) m³/kgs²

P² = [4 * π² * (5. 984 * 10^8)³]/(6.674 * 10^(-11) * 1.9891 * 10^30)

P² = (8.459 * 10^27)/(1.328 * 10^20)

P² = 6.372 * 10^7

=> P = 7982 seconds

When you drop an object from a certain height, it takes time T to reach the ground with no air resistance. If you dropped it fro
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

When we drop an object from height , suppose h

it takes time T

using equation of motion

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where  

h=displacement

u=initial\ velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

here u=0 because it dropped from a certain height

h=\frac{1}{2}gT^2

T=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

When height is increases to three times of original height

i.e. h'=3 h

then time period becomes

T'=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 3h}{g}}

T'=\sqrt{3}T

Answer:

a. 60 N*s

b. 60 (kg*m)/s

c. 3 m/s

Explanation:

Givens:

m = 20 kg

v_i = 0 m/s

t = 10 s

F = 6 N

a) Impulse:

I = F*t

I = 6 N*10 s

I = 60 N*s

b) Momentum:

p = v*m

F = m(a)

a = F/m

a = 6 N/20 kg

a = 0.3m/s^2

a = (v_f -v_i)/t

v_f = (0.3 m/s^2)*10 s

v_f = 3.0 m/s

p = 3 m/s*20 kg

p = 60 (kg*m)/s

c. Final velocity

a = (v_f -v_i)/t

v_f = (0.3 m/s^2)*10 s

v_f = 3.0 m/s
