Why don't the planets move exactly along the ecliptic?

1 answer:

6 0

As seen from the Earth, the Sun, Moon, and planets all appear to move along the ecliptic. ... Unlike the Sun, however, the planets don't always move in the same direction along the ecliptic. They usually move in the same direction as the Sun, but from time to time they seem to slow down, stop, and reverse direction!

Because of various events in their (unknown) past history that resulted in deviations from the theoretical orbit. That formed in the plain of the ecliptic.

Capturing a large passing comet or asteroid might do it.

Find the energy u of the capacitor in terms of c and q by using the definition of capacitance and the formula for the energy in

gtnhenbr [62]

The formula for the energy in a capacitor , u in terms of q and c is q²/2c

<h3>What is the energy of a capacitor?</h3>

The energy of a capacitor u = 1/2qv where

q = charge on capacitor and
v = voltage across capacitor.

<h3>What is the capacitance of a capacitor?</h3>

Also, the capacitance of a capacitor c = q/v where

q = charge on capacitor and
v = voltage across capacitor.

So, v = q/c

<h3>The formula for energy of the capacitor in terms of q and c</h3>

Substituting v into u, we have

u = 1/2qv

= 1/2q(q/c)

= q²/2c

So, the formula for the energy in a capacitor , u in terms of q and c is q²/2c

A sound has a sound level of 30 dB. Its intensity is what multiple of the standard reference level for intensities?

arsen [322]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1000th multiple of the standard reference level for intensities.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sound intensity level (β), measured in decibels, of a sound with an intensity of I is defined as follows;

β = 10 log (I / I₀) --------------------(i)

Where;

I₀ = reference intensity

Given from the question;

β = sound level = 30dB

Substitute this value into equation (i) as follows;

30 = 10 log (I / I₀)

Divide both sides by 3;

3 = log (I / I₀)

Take antilog of both sides;

10^(3) = (I / I₀)

1000 = I / I₀

Solve for I;

I = 1000I₀

Therefore the intensity of the sound is 1000 times the standard reference level for intensities (I₀)

determine the greates possile acceleration of the 975 kg race car so that its front wheels do not leace the gorund

wolverine [178]

<u>Answer</u>:

The greatest possible acceleration of the car is $a_G= 6.78 m/s^2$

<u>Explanation</u>:

$N_A+N_B-Mg = 0$

$-N_Aa +N_B(b-a)- \mu_s N_Bh - \mu_s N_Ah = 0$

$0.8N_B +0.8N_A = 975a_G$

$N_A+N_B = 9564.75$ -------------(1)

$-N_A(1.82) + N_B(2.20 -1.82) -0.9N_B(0.55)-0.8N_A(0.55)=0$

$-N_A(1.82) +0.38 N_B -0.44N_B -0.44N_A=0$

$-2.26N_A -0.06N_B= 0$ ----------------(2)

Solving the equation (1) and(2)

$N_A + N_B = 9564.75$

$-2.26N_A-0.06N_B=0$

$N_A = -260.85N$

$N_B = 9825.60N$

$\mu_s N_B + \mu_s N_A = 975a_G$

$0.8(9825.60)+0.8(-260.85) = 975a_G$ $a_G=\frac{7651.8}{975}$ $a_G_1=7.4848m/s^2$

Next lets assume that the front wheels contact with the ground N_A = 0

$F_B = Ma_G$

$N_B = M_g$

$N_B - M_g = 0$

$N_B(b-a) –F_Bh = 0$

$F_B = 975a_G$

$N_B-975(9.8) = 0$

$N_B=9564.75N$

$9564.75(2.20 -1.82) -F_B(0.55)=0$

$\frac{3634.605}{0.55}=F_B$

$F_B = 6608.3$

$F_B = Ma_G$

$6608.3 = 975a_G$

$a_G = 6.7778 m/s^2$

$a_G_2 = 6.78m/s^2$

Choosing the critical case

$a_G = min(a_G_1 ,a_G_2)$

$a_G = min(7.848, 6.78)$

$a_G= 6.78 m/s^2$
