Calculate the orbital period of a dwarf planet found to have a semimajor axis of a = 4.0x 10^12 meters in seconds and years.
padilas [110]

Explanation:

We have,

Semimajor axis is 4\times 10^{12}\ m

It is required to find the orbital period of a dwarf planet. Let T is time period. The relation between the time period and the semi major axis is given by Kepler's third law. Its mathematical form is given by :

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{GM}a^3

G is universal gravitational constant

M is solar mass

Plugging all the values,

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.98\times 10^{30}}\times (4\times 10^{12})^3\\\\T=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\pi^{2}}{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.98\times10^{30}}\times(4\times10^{12})^{3}}\\\\T=4.37\times 10^9\ s

Since,

1\ s=3.17\times 10^{-8}\ \text{years}\\\\4.37\times 10^9\ s=4.37\cdot10^{9}\cdot3.17\cdot10^{-8}\\\\4.37\times 10^9\ s=138.52\ \text{years}

So, the orbital period of a dwarf planet is 138.52 years.

the pygmy shrew has an average mass of 2.0 g if 49 of these shrew are placed on a spring scale with a spring constant of 24 N/m
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Spring's displacement, x = -0.04 meters.

Explanation:

Let the spring's displacement be x.

Given the following data;

Mass of each shrew, m = 2.0 g to kilograms = 2/1000 = 0.002 kg

Number of shrews, n = 49

Spring constant, k = 24 N/m

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s².

To find the spring's displacement;

At equilibrium position:

Fnet = Felastic + Fg = 0

But, Felastic = -kx

Total mass, Mt = nm

Fg = -Mt = -nmg

-kx -nmg = 0

Rearranging, we have;

kx = -nmg

Making x the subject of formula, we have;

x = \frac {-nmg}{k}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

x = \frac {-49*0.002*9.8}{24}

x = \frac {-0.9604}{24}

x = -0.04 m

Therefore, the spring's displacement is -0.04 meters.

3 cases where kinetic energy become potential energy
finlep [7]
--  Toss a rock straight up.  The kinetic energy you give it
with your hand becomes potential energy as it rises. 
Eventually, when its kinetic energy is completely changed
to potential energy, it stops rising.

--  When you're riding your bike and going really fast, you come
to the bottom of a hill.  You stop pedaling, and coast up the hill.
As your kinetic energy changes to potential energy, you coast
slower and slower.  Eventually, your energy is all potential, and
you stop coasting.

--  A little kid on a swing at the park.  The swing is going really fast
at the bottom of the arc, and then it starts rising.  As it rises, the
kinetic energy changes into potential energy, more and more as it
swings higher and higher.  Eventually it reaches a point where its
energy is all potential; then it stops rising, and begins falling again.
