Planets in our solar system do not revolve around the sun in perfect circles. Their orbits are more like ovals. Which term do sc

ientist use to describe these orbits
Physics
1 answer:
enyata [817]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It is most likely the word elliptical.

Explanation:

Usually the term <em>elliptical </em>refers to the oval-like shape of a substance or path of an object.  The question states, "Planets in our solar system do not revolve around the sun in perfect circles. Their orbits are more like ovals."  Because the planets orbit around the sun in an oval-like path, those orbits can be described as <em>elliptical.  </em>Scientists also normally use this word to describe the same thing; Therefore, your answer is elliptical.

An electron, moving south, enters a uniform magnetic field. Because of this uniform magnetic field, the electron curves upward.
Flura [38]

Answer:

Towards the west

Explanation:

Magnetic force is the interaction between a moving charged particle and a magnetic field.

Magnetic force is given as

F = q (V × B)

Where F is the magnetic force

q is the charge

V is the velocity

B is the magnetic field

V×B means the cross product of the velocity and the magnetic field

NOTE:

i×i=j×j×k×k=0

i×j=k.  j×i=-k

j×k=i.  k×j=-i

k×i=j.  i×k=-j

So, if the electron is moving southward, then, it implies that the velocity of it motion is southward, so the electron is in the positive z-direction

Also, the electron is curved upward due to the magnetic field, this implies that the force field is directed up in the positive y direction.

Then,

V = V•k

F = F•j

Then, apply the theorem

F •j = q ( V•k × B•x)

Let x be the unknown

From vector k×i =j.

This shows that x = i

Then, the magnetic field point in the direction of positive x axis, which is towards the west

You can as well use the Fleming right hand rule

The thumb represent force

The index finger represent velocity

The middle finger represent field

Give a critical discussion on why hardness test needs to perform in engineering practice.
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Hardness is a measure of the resistance of a material to permanent deformation (plastic) on its surface,

Hardness tests play an important role in material testing, quality control and component acceptance.

Hardness test are needed to be perform as a <em>quality assurance procedure</em>, to validate materials are according to the specific hardness required,

We depend on the data to verify the quality of the components to determine if a material has the necessary properties for its intended use.

Through the years, the establishment of increasingly productive and effective means of testing, has given way to new cutting-edge methods that perform and interpret hardness tests more effectively than ever. The result is a greater capacity and dependence on "letting the instrument do the work", contributing to substantial increases in performance and consistency and continuing to make hardness tests very useful in industrial and R&D applications.

b)

  1. <u>Instrumental errors</u>:   Instrument calibration is extremely important. An instrument with expired calibration may be generating erroneous data systematically.
  2. <u>Enviromental error: </u>An example is when surface preparation of the sample to be tested is poor, then the error can be presented when measuring the indentation on the sample to determine the hardness value.

What is the acceleration of a 150 kg object pushed with a force of 1000 N?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

<h2>6.67 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{1000}{150}   \\  =  6.66666..

We have the final answer as

<h3>6.67 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
