How do astronomers think Jupiter generates its internal heat?

Physics
1 answer:
Elina [12.6K]3 years ago
4 0

Astronomers think Jupiter generates its internal heat by contracting, changing gravitational potential energy into thermal energy.

Answer: Option E

<u>Explanation:</u>

The internal heat of Jupiter is primarily the primary heat released during gravitational collapse when its creation occurs. Because of their large dimensions, this giant plant was heavily heated by creating surrounding material on their cores.

The largest planet, Jupiter was the hottest. Part of this warming may still remain on such large planets. In addition, it is possible that this giant, mainly gaseous planets produce heat after they are formed as a result of slow contraction. With such a large mass, even a small shrinkage can generate high heat.

An airplane starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate of 3.00 m/s2 for 30.0 s before leaving the ground. a. How far di
rosijanka [135]

The formula we can use in this case is:

d = v0t + 0.5 at^2

v = at + v0

where,

d = distance travelled

v0 = initial velocity = 0 since at rest

t = time travelled

a = acceleration

v = final velocity when it took off

 

a. d = 0 + 0.5 * 3 * 30^2

d = 1350 m

 

b. v = 3 * 30 + 0

<span>v = 90 m/s</span>

Which statement about gravity is true?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Out of the given options, ‘it is described as a fundamental force and therefore does not depend on other forces’ is the true statement about gravity.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

As we all know that there are four fundamental forces existing in the universe- Electromagnetic force, strong forces, weak forces and the gravitational force.

These are the forces that don’t depend on any other physical force to draw a considerable impact on the physical objects. The gravitational force can be defined as,

                     F=G \times \frac{m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2}}

Where,

G = Gravitational Constant

m_{1} , m_{2} = Masses of two substances under consideration

R = distance between the two substances.

Looking upon the formula of gravitational force we can easily estimate that the gravitational force relies on the mass of substances and the relative distance between them. There is no factor than the air friction that hinders the gravitational force and that too in a negligible amount.

What properties of the wave define why it is found within this area of the spectrum?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed and medium are properties of a wave which is in common within an area of the spectrum of visible light. i.e;

Their medium of propagation

They both travel at the same speed ( speed of light )

The properties mentioned above are properties that define that wave is found within an area spectrum for visible light.
