Answer:

9.4\cdot 10^{10} m

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Kepler's third law, which states that the ratio between the cube of the orbital radius and the square of the orbital period is constant for every object orbiting the Sun. So we can write

\frac{r_a^3}{T_a^2}=\frac{r_e^3}{T_e^2}

where

r_o is the distance of the new object from the sun (orbital radius)

T_o=180 d is the orbital period of the object

r_e = 1.50\cdot 10^{11} m is the orbital radius of the Earth

T_e=365 d is the orbital period the Earth

Solving the equation for r_o, we find

r_o = \sqrt[3]{\frac{r_e^3}{T_e^2}T_o^2} =\sqrt[3]{\frac{(1.50\cdot 10^{11}m)^3}{(365 d)^2}(180 d)^2}=9.4\cdot 10^{10} m

You are helping your friend move a new refrigerator into his kitchen. You apply a horizontal force of 275 N in the positive x di
Volgvan

Answer:

f = 347.08 N

Explanation:

The frictional force exerted by the floor on the refrigerator is given as follows:

f = \mu R = \mu W

where,

f = frictional force = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.58

W = Weight of refrigerator = mg

m = mass of refrigerator = 61 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

f = \mu mg\\f = (0.58)(61\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)\\

<u>f = 347.08 N</u>

If it takes 100 N to move a box 5 meters, what is the work done on the box?
jeyben [28]

Answer:  D.   500 J

=========================================================

Explanation:

To find the amount of work done, we multiply the force by displacement

work = force*displacement

work = (100 N)*(5 m)

work = (100*5) Nm

work = 500 J

In this case, "Nm" refers to "Newton meters" and not "nanometers"

1 newton meter is equal to 1 joule

The average velocity of an object over 6.0 seconds interval is 2 m/s what is the total distance traveled and M by the object doi
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 12 m</h2>

Explanation:

The distance covered by an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula

distance = velocity × time

From the question we have

distance = 2 × 6

We have the final answer as

<h3>12 m</h3>

Hope this helps you

How is Venus similar to Earth?
hoa [83]

Answer: D

Explanation: I have my answers VS. Go0gle answers (go0gle answers are pics)

(A) Both have the same day length. Well, Venus doesn't havve the same amount of days. (I already know off the top of my head, but I still searched it up)

(B) Both rotate in the same direction. In school (before Virus) they would always show diagrams of the planets on the projector and Venus doesn't rotate

(C) Both have ample water. No. Venus doesn't have much water >_>

(D) Both have a solid inner core and a liquid outer core. Yesh. In my lessons (before), Venus has a solid inner core and liquid outer core.
