Answer:

<h2>The answer is planetary motion</h2>

Explanation:

According to Johannes Kepler, the laws governing planetary motion

states that:

1. The orbit of a planet is an ellipse with the Sun at one of the two foci.

2. A line segment joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas

during equal intervals of time.

3. The square of a planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major of its orbit.

Johannes Kepler was a German astronomer, mathematician, and astrologer

Born: 27 December 1571, Weil der Stadt, Germany

Died: 15 November 1630

A soap bubble usually pops because some part of it becomes too thin due to evaporation or drainage of fluid. The change in thick

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

To understand why the change in thickness also changes the color of light the bubble reflects, we definitely know that

mλ = dsinθ

when d sin θ = mλ, we expect constructive interference

d = distance between the slits

θ = the angle relative to the incident direction

m = order of the interference

Hence, a change in the thickness will also cause a change in the wavelength, and as wavelength changes, various colors are generated.

The light's path difference is therefore generated as a result of the thickness variation of the soap bubble.

Consider the two electron arrangements for neutral atoms a and b. Are atoms a and b the same element? a - 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s1 b -

Agata [3.3K]

The two neutral atoms A and B have the same number of electrons and atomic number 11. So, the two elements are said to be same.

The electronic configuration of the element is the arrangement of the electrons in the atom of the element in energy levels, orbitals around the nucleus.

The electrons in the atoms of the element with lowest energy are written first before those with higher energy levels. Thus, the electronic configuration shows the electrons in the atoms of the element arranged in order of increasing energies.

The electronic configuration of atoms are given as

A = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

B = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 5s¹

The number of electrons in both the elements is 11. Therefore, their atomic number is also the same i.e, 11. So, both the elements are the same.

The axle of an automobile is acted upon by the forces and couple shown. knowing that the diameter of the solid axle is 32 mm, de

saul85 [17]

First we need to convert the mm to inches to make our computation easier.

1mm = 0.0393701

32mm * 0.0393701 = 1.25 in

Solution:

C = 1/2d = ½ (1.25) = 0.625 in^4

Tension: tension = Te/J = 2T/ piC^3

= (2)(2500)/pi (0.0625)^3 = 6.519 x 10^3 psi = 6.519 ksi

Bending:

I = pi/4 * c^4 = 119.842 x 10^-3 in^4

M = (5)(600) = 3600 lb in

G = My/I = (3600)(0.625)/119.842 x 10^-3 = -18.775 x 10^2 psi = -18.775ksi

Gx = -18.775 ksi

Gy = 0

Txy = 6.519 ksi

G ave – ½ (Gx + Gy) = -9.387 ksi
R = sqrt (Gx – Gy/2)^2 + Txy^2 = sqrt(-9.387)^2 + (6.519)^2 = 11.429 ksi

1. G1 = Gave + R = -9/387 + 11.429 = 2.04 ksi

G2 = Gave - R = -9/387 - 11.429 = -20.8

Tan 2ϴp = 2txy/Gx – Gy = 2(6.519)/-9.387 = -1.3889

ϴp = -27.1 degrees and 62.9 degrees

2. Tmax = R = 11.43 ksi

R = sqrt (Gx – Gy/2)^2 + Txy^2 = sqrt(-9.387)^2 + (6.519)^2 = 11.429 ksi
