A). Kepler's first law of planetary motion ... "Each planet moves
      in an elliptical orbit, with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse."

B). Heliocentric motion ... motion in an orbit around the Sun.

C). Eccentricity ... what makes an ellipse different from a circle.
   The eccentricity of a circle is zero.
   The eccentricity of the Earth's orbit is very small.
   The eccentricity of a comet's orbit is big.

D). Retrograde motion ... the apparent, temporary, backward
   motion of a planet on its path through the stars.

Answer:

Weight in Air = 0.3N

Weight in Water = 0.25N

Weight in Liquid = 0.24N.

Upthrust /Buoyant Force = Weight in Air – Weight in Fluid(Water in this case)

= 0.3 – 0.25

= 0.5N.

b) R.D of Body = Density of Body/Density of Standard Fluid(Water).

There's a Derived Formula for RD.

I'm gonna Apply it here.

Ask me for the derivation in the Comment section if you need it.

RD = α/ρ = (Weight in Air) / (Upthrust Force)

Where

α = density of the Body(or reference substance)

ρ = density of standard fluid (water)

= 0.3/0.05 = 6.

c) RD of Liquid = (Density of Liquid) /(Density of standard Fluid(water)

Or we just go by that formula

RD of Liquid = Weight in Air/Upthrust(In Liquid)

We'll be using the Upthrust in that Liquid now.

= 0.3 – 0.24 = 0.06

RD = 0.3/0.06 = 5.

Bill and Ted are standing on a bridge 40 ft above a river. Bill drops a stone, while Ted decides to throw a stone downward at 10

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to know how long after Bill released his rock should Ted throw his if they want the stones to hit the water simultanously, we need to calculate the time needed to hit the water to both rocks independent each other, and just take the difference.

For the rock dropped by Bill, as the only influence on it is gravity (accelerating it downwards with an acceleration equal to g), and v₀ =0, we can use the following kinematic equation:

$y = \frac{1}{2} * g * t^{2}$

where y = height = 40 ft.

As all the parameters are given in SI units, it is advisable to convert this value to m, as follows:

$y = 40 ft*\frac{0.3048m}{1 ft} = 12.2 m$

Now, we can solve for t, as follows:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2*y}{g}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*12.2m}{9.8m/s2}} = 1.58 s$

For the rock thrown down at 10 m/s, the kinematic equation we just have used becomes:

$y = v0*t +\frac{1}{2} * g * t^{2}$

This leaves us a quadratic equation on t, as follows:

$t = \frac{-10m/s}{9.8m/s2} +/- \sqrt{10m/s^{2} -4*4.9m/s2*(-12.2m)} = -1.02 s +/- 1.88s$

Taking the positive root, we have:

t = -1.02 s + 1.88 s = 0.86 s

So, in order to get that both rocks hit the water at the same time, Ted will need to wait the difference between both times:

Δt = 0.86 s - 1.58s = -0.72 s

A large sphere has a mass of 175 kg and is suspended by a chain from the ceiling. The mass of the chain is 12.0 kg. What is the

Elina [12.6K]

Each point in the chain supports the weight of all the mass below it.

At the bottom end of the chain, the weight is (175 x 9.8) = 1,715 N .
At the top of the chain, the weight is (175 + 12) x (9.8) = 1,833 N .

The tension in the chain varies linearly from 1,715N at the bottom
to 1,833N at the top.

Steam enters a turbine at 400K and exhausts at 360K. Calculate the maximum efficiency. =%

kozerog [31]

The maximum efficiency is 10%

Explanation:

The maximum efficiency of a machine is given by:

$\eta=1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}$

where

$T_H$ is the temperature of the hot reservoir

$T_C$ is the temperature of the cold reservoir

For the machine in this problem, we have:

$T_H=400K$ is the temperature of the hot reservoir

$T_C=360K$ is the temperature of the cold reservoir

substituting, we find the max efficiency:

$\eta=1-\frac{360}{400}=0.1$

So, the efficiency is 0.10 (10%).

Resistance of a wire depend on Fuse is Water can conduct electricity

Kamila [148]

Answer:

resistance depends on length , cross sectional area , type of material and temperature

fuse is a safety device

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. Resistance also depends on the material of the conductor. ... The resistance of a conductor, or circuit element, generally increases with increasing temperature.

fuse is a safety device which is damaged when large amount of electricity pass through it and it does not damage any other component when electricity reach the fuse wire the fuse wire is very thin so if amount of electricity reach it burnt and and save the other component of house

yes water can conduct electricity
