The solar system is of largely uniform composition. (T/F)

Physics
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Sun mass is dominating in Solar system as compared to other planets, asteroids and comets. Sun itself accounting for the 99.9% of the mass of the solar system. Hence the gravitational force exerted by the Sun dominates the other objects in the solar system. So we can conclude that solar system has non-uniform composition. The given statement is false

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

 W = 1.49 10⁻¹¹ kg

Explanation:

For this problem, let's use Newton's equation of equilibrium

           F - W = 0

            F = W              (1)

Strength can be found from the definition of pressure

        P = F / A

        F = P A

   

The radiation pressure for a reflective surface is

            P = 2 I / c)

   

We substitute in equation 1

         2 I / c  A = W

The intensity is defined by the ratio of the power between the area

          I = P / A

          P = I A

We substitute

          2 P / c = W

   

           W = 2  2.24 10-3 / 3 108

           W = 1.49 10⁻¹¹ kg

True or false? Once the sun explodes, the whole solar system will go with it.
liberstina [14]
True. That is how powerful the sun is. But it will explode in only about 5 billion years.

A flask that weighs 345.8 g is filled with 225 mL of carbon tetrachloride.
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

1.59 g/mL

Explanation:

Mass of CCl₄ = mass of flask and CCl₄ − mass of empty flask

m = 703.55 g − 345.8 g

m = 357.75 g

Density = mass / volume

d = 357.75 g / 225 mL

d = 1.59 g/mL

rjkz [21]
Well heat comes out from the stove and moved to the pot and is TOUCHING. So the heat transfer would be conduction because the heat moves from one object to another by TOUCHING.

The similarity between them is they both involve heat, there is many but that's a simple one
