Although they're all 'close', none of the planets orbits in the same plane as any other planet. They're all in slightly different planes.
The farthest out compared to all the others is Pluto, with an orbit inclined about 17 degrees compared to the ecliptic plane (Earth's orbit). But Pluto is officially not a planet, so I don't think it's a good answer.
The next greatest inclination compared to Earth's orbit is <em>Mercury</em>. That one is about 7 degrees.
The other six planets are all in different orbital planes inclined less than 7 degrees compared to Earth's orbit.
(a) 0.249 (24.9 %)
The maximum efficiency of a heat engine is given by
where
Tc is the low-temperature reservoir
Th is the high-temperature reservoir
For the engine in this problem,
Therefore the maximum efficiency is
(b-c) 0.221 (22.1 %)
The second steam engine operates using the exhaust of the first. So we have:
is the high-temperature reservoir
is the low-temperature reservoir
If we apply again the formula of the efficiency
The maximum efficiency of the second engine is
Answer: The softer barrier is the better option
Explanation:
1) When is a car is moving at a certain speed, it has a certain amount of momentum (p=mv). A collision against a barrier would cause its momentum to decrease to 0. A change in momentum is Impulse
2) The formula for Impulse: J = f * Δt
J is Impulse
f is the force applied during the time Δt
A tough barrier would produce a smaller Δt, which means more force is applied on the car. (J is always constant)
A softer barrier would apply less force on the car, which means Δt is large.
Answer: The softer barrier is the better option
Answer:
The velocity is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the bullet is 
The initial speed of the bullet is 
The mass of the target is 
The initial velocity of target is 
The final velocity of the bullet is is 
Generally according to the law of momentum conservation we have that
=> 
=>
Answer:
The answer is (a.) An upward force balances the downward force gravity on the skydiver
The skydiver is falling at a constant velocity because the upward force is balancing the downward force of gravity. According to Newton, the opposite force balance each other. This is stated in Newton's second law of motion.
