Why is Jupiter so much larger than Earth? Check all that apply
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Moreover, Boss says that even if Jupiter is proven to have a core, the planet still could have formed that core through disk instability. Enough dust could have collected and cemented together in the dense gas to form a core many times larger than the size of the Earth.

Explanation:

The same is true of most other objects in the solar system — except Jupiter. The gas giant is so big that it pulls the center of mass between it and the sun, also known as the barycenter, some 1.07 solar radii from the star's center — which is about 30,000 miles above the sun's surface.

calculate the resistance of 50m length of wire of cross sectional area 0.01 square mm and of resistivity 5*10 to the power minus
Pachacha [2.7K]
Resistance R = resistivity * length / area

R = 5  10^{-8} * 50 m / 0.01 *  10^{-3} * 10^{-3}

R =  250 Ohms

What is the average velocity of an arrow that travels 12 m [E] in 0.15 s?
sergij07 [2.7K]
Velocity is defined as Distance divided by Time.
In other words, V = D/T.

Now that we have our formula, we can solve.
Let's plug in the numbers we have.

We have 12m [East (direction not necessary when solving yet)] for our distance, and 0.15s as our time.

Divide the distance (12 /) by the time (0.15)
12 / 0.15 = 80.

Your velocity is 80 m/s [E]

I hope this helps!

(a) How many kilograms of water must evaporate from a 60.0-kg woman to lower their body temperature by 0.750ºC?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

69.69 g

Explanation:

Evaporation of water will take out latent heat of vaporization.  Let the mass of water be m and latent heat of vaporization of water be 2260000 J per kg

Heat taken up by evaporating water

= 2260000 x m J

Heat lost by body

= mass x specific heat of body x drop in temperature

60 x 3500 x .750  ( specific heat of human body is 3.5 kJ/kg.k)

= 157500 J

Heat loss = heat gain

2260000 m= 157500

m = .06969 kg

= 69.69 g

A small plane flies 40.0 km in a direction 60° north of east and then flies 30.0 km in a direction 15° north of east. Use the an
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

d= 64.7 km

\theta = 40.9^{o}

displacement vector=r_xi + r_yj =  48.9i + 42.4j

Explanation:

total distance = 40 + 30 = 70 km

during 1st flight

r_1 x = 40*cos60

r_1 x = 20 km

r_1 y = 40*sin60

r_1 y = 34.64 km

during 2nd flight

r_2 x = 30*cos15

r_2 x = 28.9 km

r_2 y = 30*sin15

r_2 y = 7.76 km

the two component of r are:

r_x = r_1x + r_2x = 20 + 28.9 = 48.9 km

r_y = r_1y + r_2y = 34.64 + 7.76 = 42.4 km

Geographical Direction \theta = tan^{-1}\frac{r_y}{r_x} [tex]\theta = 40.9^{o}

Displacement d= \sqrt{r_x^2 + r_y^2}

                     d = \sqrt{48.9^2+42.4^2} = 64.7 km

d= 64.7 km

displacement vector=r_xi + r_yj =  48.9i + 42.4j
