Approximately how many asteroids that are 0.98 km in radius would it take to make a planet which has a radius of 6420.0 km

Physics

maria [59]3 years ago

Answer:

It'd take approximately 6543 asteroids.

Explanation:

In order to calculate the number of asteroids needed to make that planet we first need to determine the volume of each object. To do this we will consider them as spheres and apply the appropriate formula:

V_{asteroid} = \frac{4*\pi*0.98}{3} = 4.11  \text{ km}^3

V_{planet} = \frac{4*\pi*6420}{3} = 26892.03 \text{ km}^3

The number of asteroids needed are given by the division of planet's volume by the asteroid's volume.

n = \frac{26892.03}{4.11} = 6543.07

It'd take approximately 6543 asteroids.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

D. move up to another shell that would form

Explanation:

An atom has protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons are present in the nucleus and electrons orbit the nucleus in fixed shells. An electron can jump to higher shell when it gains energy and lower one when it loses energy. Thus, when single electron in hydrogen atom is given a small amount of energy, it would jump to another higher shell.

A dielectric-filled parallel-plate capacitor has plate area A = 30.0 cm2 , plate separation d = 9.00 mm and dielectric constant
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

9.96\cdot 10^{-10}J

Explanation:

The capacitance of the parallel-plate capacitor is given by

C=\epsilon_0 k \frac{A}{d}

where

ϵ0 = 8.85x10-12 C2/N.m2 is the vacuum permittivity

k = 3.00 is the dielectric constant

A=30.0 cm^2 = 30.0\cdot 10^{-4}m^2 is the area of the plates

d = 9.00 mm = 0.009 m is the separation between the plates

Substituting,

C=(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F/m)(3.00 ) \frac{30.0\cdot 10^{-4} m^2}{0.009 m}=8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F

Now we can calculate the energy of the capacitor, given by:

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2

where

C is the capacitance

V = 15.0 V is the potential difference

Substituting,

U=\frac{1}{2}(8.85\cdot 10^{-12}F)(15.0 V)^2=9.96\cdot 10^{-10}J

Ten high-technology batteries are tested for 200 hours each. One failed at 20 hours; another failed at 140 hours; all others com
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Failure rate   = 20%

MTBF = 880 hours

Explanation:

given data

batteries = 10

tested = 200 hours

one failed = 20 hours

another fail at =  140 hours

solution

we know that Mean Time between Failures is express as = (Total up time) ÷  (number of breakdowns)    ....................1

so here Total up time will be

Total up time = 200 × 10

Total up time = 2000

and here

Number of breakdown = 1 at 20 hour and another at 140 hour = 2

so it will be  = (Total up time) ÷ (number of breakdowns)      .......2

=  \frac{2000}{2}   =  1000  

so here gap between occurrences is

gap between occurrences=  140 - 20

gap between occurrences = 120 hour

and

MTBF  will be

MTBF = 1000 - 120

MTBF = 880 hours  

and

Failure rate (FR)  will be

Failure rate (FR) =  1 ÷ MTBF    ................3

Failure rate (FR) = R÷T     ......................4

as here R is the number of failures and T is total time

so Failure rate (FR)  = 20%
