As a planet's semimajor axis gets smaller, its speed will _______ and its period will _________ .
Rufina [12.5K]
Well first of all, a planet doesn't have a semimajor axis, although it's orbit does.

In an orbit with a smaller semimajor axis, the planet moves faster, and its orbital period is shorter.

That's why the International Space Station circles the Earth in less time than the Moon does.

A 2.3 m long wire weighing 0.075 N/m is suspended directly above an infinitely straight wire. The top wire carries a current of
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnetic field near current carrying wire

= \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} \frac{2i}{r}

i is current , r is distance from wire

B =  10⁻⁷ x \frac{2\times49}{r}

force on second wire per unit length

B I L , I is current in second wire , L is length of wire

=  10⁻⁷ x \frac{2\times49}{r} x 33 x 1

= 3234 x \frac{10^{-7}}{r}

This should balance weight of second wire per unit length

3234 x \frac{10^{-7}}{r} = .075

r = \frac{3234}{.075} x 10⁻⁷

= .0043 m

= .43 cm .

Which method determines the relative age of Earth's sedimentary layers based on their organization?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Relative age-dating involves comparing a rock layer or rock structure with other near-by layers or structures. Using the principles of superposition and cross-cutting relationships, and structures such as unconformities, one can determine the order of geological events.

A layer of oil (n = 1.38) floats on an unknown liquid. A ray of light originates in the oil and passes into the unknown liquid.
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Refractive index of unknown liquid = 1.56

Explanation:

Using Snell's law as:

n_i\times {sin\theta_i}={n_r}\times{sin\theta_r}

Where,  

{\theta_i}  is the angle of incidence  ( 65.0° )

{\theta_r} is the angle of refraction  ( 53.0° )

{n_r} is the refractive index of the refraction medium  (unknown liquid, n=?)

{n_i} is the refractive index of the incidence medium (oil, n=1.38)

Hence,  

1.38\times {sin65.0^0}={n_r}\times{sin53.0^0}

Solving for {n_r},

Refractive index of unknown liquid = 1.56
