The eccentricity of an asteroid's orbit is 0.0442, and the semimajor axis is 1.12 x 1011 m. The Sun's center is at one focus of

the asteroid's orbit. (a) How far from this focus is the other focus in meters? (b) What is the ratio of this distance to the solar radius, 6.96 x 108 m?

Answer:

a. d=99x10^{8}m

b. r=14.22 R_s

Explanation:

The eccentricity of an asteroid's is 0.0442 so

a.

to find the focus distance between both focus is

d=2*e*a

e=1.12x10^{11}m\\a=0.0442

So replacing numeric

d=2*1.12x10^{11}m*0.0442=9900800000

d=99x10^{8}m

b.

Now to find the ratio of that distance between the solar radius and the distance

r=\frac{d_1}{d_s}

r=R_s*\frac{99x10^8m}{6.96x10^8m}

r=14.22 R_s

an elevator suspended by a vertical cable is moving downward but slowing down. the tension in the cable must be:
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

F = M a is the vector equation involved

F = T - M g      are the forces acting on the elevator   (scalar equation)

T - M g = M a

T = M (a + g)    remember this a scalar

If a is slowing down then it must have a positive acceleration upwards

Therefor the tension in the cable must be greater than zero

When the tension increases to M g, a has increased to zero

For a to be zero, no acceleration, T = M g

A car drives 90 meters north, then turns around and drives 120 meters south. What was its displacement and distance?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

displacement= 30 m towards south, distance= 210m

Explanation:

Distance (scalar quantity) how much ground an object has covered.

Displacement (vector quantity) refers to how far out of place an object is it is the object's overall change in position.

Basically meaning for displacement the directions will be very key

D for Displacement

D= D1+D2

D=  120 (S) + 90 m (N)

Must be in same direction

D= 120 (S) + (-90 m) (S)

D= 30 m (S)

and for distance you are simply just adding how much distance they have covered

so d= d1+d2

d= 90m + 120m

d= 210m

I will mark as the brainliest answer​
erastova [34]

Answer:

8) 1500 feet

9) 20 miles

10) 4 Days

11) 2250 miles

12) 1 hour and 5 minutes

13) 27.27miles per hour

Explanation

8) There are 60 seconds in one minute so 60x25=1500 feet

9) 30 minutes is half of an hour so 40 miles ÷ 2 = 20 miles

10) 12x4=48

11) 500 miles x 4.5 hours is 2250 miles

12) Train leaves at 3pm after 60 miles it will be 4 pm and after 5 more miles 4:05 pm so 1 hour and 5 minutes

13)

Elmo = 40 minutes and 5 miles

Bert and Ernie = 45 minutes and 15 miles

Cookie Monster = 20 minutes and 10 miles

Home = 5 minutes abd 20 miles

Average Speed including stops is 27.27 miles per hour
