Answer:

103239.89 days

Explanation:

Kepler's third law states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.

                               a³ / T² = 7.496 × 10⁻⁶  (a.u.³/days²)

where,

a is the distance of the semi-major axis in a.u

T is the orbit time in days

Converting the mean distance of the new planet to astronomical unit (a.u.)

                       1 a.u = 9.296 × 10⁷ miles        

                                      \frac{4004 * 10^{6}}{9.296 * 10^{7}}  =  43.07\ a.u.

Substituting the values into Kepler's third law equation;

                                    \frac{(43.07)^{3}}{T^{2}}  =  7.496 * 10^{-6}  

                                    T^{2} = \frac{(43.07)^{3}}{7.496 * 10^{-6}} (days)²

                                    T^{2} = \sqrt{\frac{(43.07)^{3}}{7.496 * 10^{-6}}}

                                    T = 103239.89 days

An estimate time T for the new planet to travel around the sun in an orbit is 103239.89 days

Light of wavelength 650 nm is normally incident on the rear of a grating. The first bright fringe (other than the central one) i
koban [17]

Answer:

A

   N  = 1340.86 \ slits  / cm

B

    \theta  = 15.7^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

      The wavelength is  \lambda  =  650 \  nm  =  650  *10^{-9} \  m  

        The angle of  first bright fringe is  \theta  =  5^o  

        The order of the fringe considered is  n  =1

Generally the condition for constructive interference is  

       dsin (\theta ) = n * \lambda

=>    d =  \frac{1 *  650 *10^{-9 }}{ sin(5)}

=>    d = 7.458 *10^{-6} \  m

Converting to cm

           d = 7.458 *10^{-6} \  m = 7.458 *10^{-6}  * 100 =  0.0007458 \  cm

Generally the number of grating pre centimeter is  mathematically represented as

           N  =  \frac{1}{d}

=>         N  =  \frac{1}{0.0007458}

=>         N  = 1340.86 \ slits  / cm

Considering question B  

   From the question we are told that

     The first wavelength is  \lambda_1 =  650 \ nm  =  650 *10^{-9} \  m

     The second wavelength is  \lambda_2 = 429 \  m   =   420 *10^{-9 } \  m

      The order of the fringe is  n  =  2

       The grating is  N =  5000 \  slits / cm

Generally the slit width is mathematically represented as

              d =  \frac{1}{N  }

=>          d =  \frac{1}{ 5000  }

=>          d =   0.0002 \  c m  =  2.0 *10^{-6} \ m

Generally the condition for constructive interference for the first ray is mathematically represented as

         d sin(\theta_1) =  n *  \lambda_1

=>      \theta_1 = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 *  \lambda }{d}]

=>       \theta_1 = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 *   650 *10^{-9} }{ 2*10^{-6}}]

=>        \theta_1 = 40.5 ^o

Generally the condition for constructive interference for the second ray is mathematically represented as

         d sin(\theta_2) =  n *  \lambda_2

=>      \theta_2 = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 *  \lambda_1 }{d}]

=>       \theta_2 = sin^{-1} [\frac{ 2 *   420 *10^{-9} }{ 2*10^{-6}}]

=>        \theta_2 = 24.8  ^o

Generally the angular separation is mathematically represented as

            \theta  =  \theta_1 - \theta_1

=>          \theta  = 42.5^o -  24.8^o

=>          \theta  = 15.7^o

the force of a bag of potatoes on a vegetable stand is 22.5 N down. what is the force of the vegetable stand on the bag of potat
natima [27]

As per Newton's III law we can say that

Force applied by object 1 on object 2 is always equal in magnitude and opposite in direction of the force that object 2 apply on object 1.

So we can say it as

F_{12} = -F_{21}

now here above question is based upon the same

if a bag of vegetables applied a force F = 22.5 N of the surface stand the the same surface will apply same magnitude of force in opposite direction on the vegetables bag

So our answer will be F = 22.5 N (upwards).

the electron are accelrated to a speed of 2.40*10^7 in 1.8*10^-9, the force experinced by an electron ?
dalvyx [7]
Force = mass × acceleration

To find acceleration, we can divide the speed by the time it took:

acceleration = 2.40×10^7 / 1.8×10^-9

acceleration = 1.33×10^16

the mass is equal to the mass of an electron

force = (9.11×10^-31)(1.33×10^16)

force = 1.21×10^-14 N
