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.

Answer:

Obviously Lengthen...   T = 2\pi \sqrt{L/g}   or   g = 4\pi ^{2} L/g

Explanation:

As we can observe from the equation, time period of a simple pendulum depends upon the length directly. When the gravitational acceleration increases the time period of the pendulum decreases and vice versa. So, by increasing the length, the time period can be adjusted...

MariettaO [177]

Complete question:

while hunting in a cave a bat emits sounds wave of frequency 39 kilo hartz were moving towards a wall with a constant velocity of 8.32 meters per second take the speed of sound as 340 meters per second. calculate the frequency​ reflected off the wall to the bat?

Answer:

The frequency reflected by the stationary wall to the bat is 41 kHz

Explanation:

Given;

frequency emitted by the bat, = 39 kHz

velocity of the bat, v_b = 8.32 m/s

speed of sound in air, v = 340 m/s

The apparent frequency of sound striking the wall is calculated as;

f' = f(\frac{v}{v- v_b} )\\\\f' = 39,000(\frac{340}{340 -8.32} )\\\\f' = 39978.29 \ Hz

The frequency reflected by the stationary wall to the bat is calculated as;

f_s = f'(\frac{v + v_b}{v} )\\\\f_s = 39978.29(\frac{340 + 8.32}{340} )\\\\f_s = 40,956.56 \ Hz

f_s\approx 41 \ kHz
