Answer:

198.2°

Explanation:

The angle from the +x axis can be found with:

θ = atan(vy / vx)

Given vx = -7.55 and vy = -2.48:

θ = atan(-2.48 / -7.55)

θ = 18.2°, 198.2°

Since θ is in the third quadrant, θ = 198.2°.

The average speed between earth and the sun is 1.50 x10^8 km. Calculate the average speed of the Earth in its orbit in kilometer
cluponka [151]

Answer:

The average speed of the earth in its orbit is 29.86km/s

Explanation:

The average distance between the Earth and the Sun is 1.50x10^{8} km.

The average speed of the earth in its orbit can be found by the next equation :

v = \frac{2 \pi r}{T}  (1)

Where r is the radius and T is the period.

In this case, the orbit of the Earth can be considered as a circle

(r = 1.50x10^{8}km) instead of an ellipse.

It takes 1 year to the Earth to make one revolution around the Sun. Therefore, its period will be 365.25 days.

Notice that to express the period in terms of seconds, the following is needed:

365.25d . \frac{86400s}{1d} ⇒ 31557600s

Then, equation 1 can be used:

v = \frac{2 \pi (1.50x10^{8}km)}{31557600s}

v = 29.86km/s

A shovel is the third class lever​
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

In a third-class lever, the effort force lies between the resistance force and the fulcrum. Some kinds of garden tools are examples of third-class levers. When you use a shovel, for example, you hold one end steady to act as the fulcrum, and you use your other hand to pull up on a load of dirt.

What type of heat transfer is used to fry an egg in a pan and how can you tell?
Deffense [45]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A process in which transfer of heat occurring when one object touches another object is known as conduction.  

For example, when a pan is heated and then an egg is placed over the pan. Then there will be transfer of heat from pan towards the egg.

As a result, the egg gets cooked because the egg was touching the pan.

Hence, we can conclude that it is conduction because the egg is touching the pan.

A gas has an initial volume of 212 cm^3 at a temperature of 293 K and a pressure of 0.98 atm. What is the final pressure of the
MatroZZZ [7]
For this we use general equation for gases. Our variables represent:

p- pressure
v-volume
t- temperature

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

in this equation we know:
P1,V1 and T1, T2 and V2. 
We have one equation and 1 unknown variable.

P2 = T2P1V1/T1V2 = 1.1atm
