The answer is. It did not meet the three criteria the IAU uses to define a full-sized planet.

1. It is in orbit around the Sun

2. It has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium

3. It has 'cleared the neighborhood' around its orbit

Pluto has not 'cleared its neighborhood'

2 * 1.5 * (.850/2)^2A small ball with mass 1.50 kg is mounted on one end of a rod 0.850 m long and of negligible mass. The syste

grin007 [14]

Answer

given,

mass of the rod = 1.50 Kg

length of rod = 0.85 m

rotational velocity = 5060 rev/min

now calculating the rotational inertia of the system.

$I = m L^2$

where L is the length of road, we will take whole length of rod because mass is at the end of it.

$I = 1.5 \times 0.85^2$

I = 1.084 kg.m²

hence, the rotational inertia the system is equal to I = 1.084 kg.m²

Monochromatic light of wavelength λ=136.8μ m is shone at normal incidence through a thin film of thickness t resting atop a full

inn [45]

Answer:

1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm

Explanation:

Given that:

The refractive index of the film = 19

The wavelength of the light = 136.8 μ m

The thickness can be calculated by using the formula shown below as:

$Thickness=\frac {\lambda}{4\times n}$

Where, n is the refractive index of the film

${\lambda}$ is the wavelength

So, thickness is:

$Thickness=\frac {136.8\ \mu\ m}{4\times 19}$

Thickness = 1.8 μ m

Since,

1 μ m = 10⁻⁸ Hm

So,

Thickness = 1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm
