Why isn't pluto considered a planet anymore?

Physics
1 answer:
aivan3 [116]3 years ago
3 0

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'

A 1.5m wire carries a 7 A current when a potential difference of 87 V is applied. What is the resistance of the wire?
kramer

Answer:

Ohm's law states that I=V/R (Current=volts divided by resistance). Since we're looking for resistance, we'll rewrite it as R=V/I. Then just plug in the numbers; R=84/9, R= 9 1/3 or 28/3. The resistance of the wire is 9.33... or 9 1/3 ohm's, depending on how you wanna write it.

Hope it helped u if yes mark me BRAINLIEST!

Tysm!

I would appreciate it!

Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum is divided into seven ranges of wavelengths and is the part visible to the human eye
oksano4ka [1.4K]
In one of the most amazing coincidences in all of science,
the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that's visible to the
human eye is called "visible light".

Visible light is not 'divided' into anything. We mention the names
to seven of the colors in visible light. But all of the thousands of
OTHER colors that we can see are in there too, even though we
don't bother to list their names when we buzz through the rainbow
in the third grade.

A certain spring stores 10.0J of potential energy when it isstretched by 2.00cm from its equilibrium position.How much potential
qaws [65]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

x= 0.02 m

E_p= 10.0 J

E_p= 0.5kx^2

10= 0.5k(0.02)^2

solving we get

K= 50.0 N/m

Now

E'_p= 0.5kx'^2

E'_p= 0.5×50×(0.04)^2

E'_p=40 J

b) potential energy is a scalar quantity and it only depends magnitude and not direction so it will remain same in compression and expansion both

c) 20 J = 0.5×50,000×x^2

solving

x= 0.028 m

d) k is 50.0 N/m  from above calculation

A basketball player spins the ball with an angular acceleration of 10 rad/s2. What is the ball’s final angular velocity if the b
Lena [83]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The angular acceleration of the basketball, \alpha=10\ rad/s^2

Time taken, t = 3 seconds

We need to find the ball’s final angular velocity if the ball starts from rest. It can be calculated using definition of angular acceleration i.e.

\alpha=\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}

\omega_i=0\ (rest)

\omega_f=\alpha t

\omega_f=10\ rad/s^2\times 3\ s

\omega=30\ rad/s

So, the ball's final angular velocity is 30 rad/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Varvara68 [4.7K]
Speed is defined as the distance over time. So in measuring the speed of a car, the most manual thing that we can do besides using a speedometer is to measure a certain distance then measure the time at which the car passes that distance then divide the distance over the time. Then determine the speed limit.
