If a planet has an angular size of 0.29 degrees, what will be its angular size in arcminutes?

Physics
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Angular size in arc-minutes = 17.4 arc-minutes

Explanation:

Given:

Angular size = 0.29

Find:

Angular size in arc-minutes

Computation:

1 degree = 60 arc-minutes

So,

0.29 degree = 60 × 0.29 arc-minutes

0.29 degree = 17.4 arc-minutes

Angular size in arc-minutes = 17.4 arc-minutes

Which set of characteristics best describes igneous rock?
Gnom [1K]

Some of the main minerals in igneous rocks are feldspar, quartz, olivine and mica. The size of the minerals depends on the depth of the magma that formed the rock. Deeper magma cools more slowly and forms larger crystals. Rocks that cool over a few months have microscopic mineral grains and are called extrusive. Rocks that cool over thousands of years have small to medium grains and are called intrusive. Rocks that cool over millions of years have large pebble sized grains and are called plutonic.

Granite and basalt make up the majority of igneous rocks. Basalt is dark and fine-grained with minerals rich in magnesium and iron. It is either extrusive or intrusive and is the primary rock on the ocean floor. Granite is light and coarse-grained and rich in feldspar and quartz. It is plutonic and less dense than basalt. Granite is found nearly everywhere beneath the continents.

The word "igneous" comes from the Latin word "fire" and is related to the melting process that forms these rocks.

How is the density of a substance calculated?
den301095 [7]
1).  Take a sample of the substance.  The sample should be the largest
possible that will allow it to be be easily handled and the following steps
to be performed with it. 
(The density doesn't depend on the size of the sample, and every sample
of the same substance has the same density.  But using a larger sample
can improve the accuracy of the measurements you make, and therefore
improve the accuracy of the density you derive for the substance.)

2). Ask or measure the mass of the sample.

3). Ask or measure the volume of the sample.

4). Divide the mass by the volume. Their quotient is the density
of the substance.

How much heat is absorbed by 41 g iron skillet when its temperature varies from 9°C. to 20°C
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

202.95J

Explanation:

The formulae for the energy absorbed by the iron skillet is;

q=m*c*ΔФ   where q=energy absorbed, m is mass of iron skillet, c is specific heat capacity and ΔФ is change in temperature

Given that;

m= 41g

ΔФ=20°-9°=11°

c=0.45 J/g°C

q= 41×0.45×11

q= 202.95 J
