(a) The velocity ratio of the screw is 1570.8.
(b) The mechanical advantage of the screw is 785.39.
<h3>
Velocity ratio of the screw</h3>
The velocity ratio of the screw is calculated as follows;
V.R = 2πr/P
where;
- P is the pitch = 1/10 cm = 0.1 cm = 0.001 m
- r is radius = 25 cm = 0.25 m
V.R = (2π x 0.25)/(0.001)
V.R = 1570.8
<h3>Mechanical advantage of the screw</h3>
E = MA/VR x 100%
0.5 = MA/1570.8
MA = 785.39

A physical quantity is something which can be measured and whose measurement is necessary because all the laws of physics are given in terms of these physical quantities. The examples of physical quantity are mass, length, time, temperature, electric current, velocity , acceleration, force, work, weight,power, energy etc.
There are some quantities which cannot be measured and hence are not classified as physical quantities , for example, love, honesty, hatred etc
Thus a physical quantity is a quantity which can be measured.
Answer:
23376 days
Explanation:
The problem can be solved using Kepler's third law of planetary motion which states that the square of the period T of a planet round the sun is directly proportional to the cube of its mean distance R from the sun.

where k is a constant.
From equation (1) we can deduce that the ratio of the square of the period of a planet to the cube of its mean distance from the sun is a constant.

Let the orbital period of the earth be
and its mean distance of from the sun be
.
Also let the orbital period of the planet be
and its mean distance from the sun be
.
Equation (2) therefore implies the following;

We make the period of the planet
the subject of formula as follows;

But recall that from the problem stated, the mean distance of the planet from the sun is 16 times that of the earth, so therefore

Substituting equation (5) into (4), we obtain the following;

cancels out and we are left with the following;

Recall that the orbital period of the earth is about 365.25 days, hence;
