Observers in a distant solar system are watching our Sun and using the radial velocity method to try to determine whether the Su

n has planets. Because of the gravitational pull of Jupiter, the observers see the Sun's spectrum slowly redshift and then blueshift by a tiny amount. How long must they observe to see a full cycle?

Answer: almost 12 years

Explanation:

Using the radial velocity method, planet hunters can track a sun's spectrum, to determine whether the sun has planets. The spectrum appears first slightly blue-shifted, and then slightly red-shifted. If the shifts are regular, repeating themselves at fixed intervals of days, months, or even years, it  is almost certainly caused by a body orbiting the sun, tugging it back and forth over the course of its orbit. Because of the gravitational pull of Jupiter (about 3,000 times the mass of Earth), In which its average distance from the sun is 480 millions miles and takes nearly 12 years to make one revolution.

Answer:

Option B. 3.0×10¯¹¹ F.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Potential difference (V) = 100 V.

Charge (Q) = 3.0×10¯⁹ C.

Capacitance (C) =..?

The capacitance, C of a capacitor is simply defined as the ratio of charge, Q on either plates to the potential difference, V between them. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Capacitance (C) = Charge (Q) / Potential difference (V)

C = Q/V

With the above formula, we can obtain the capacitance of the parallel plate capacitor as follow:

Potential difference (V) = 100 V.

Charge (Q) = 3.0×10¯⁹ C.

Capacitance (C) =..?

C = Q/V

C = 3.0×10¯⁹ / 100

C = 3.0×10¯¹¹ F.

Therefore, the capacitance of the parallel plate capacitor is 3.0×10¯¹¹ F.

The cable holding a 2125 kg elevator has a maximum strength of 21,750 N. What is the maximum upward acceleration the cable can g
vivado [14]

Answer:

10.23m/s^2

Explanation:

GIven data

mass of elevator = 2125 kg

Force= 21,750 N

Required

The maximum acceleration upward

F= ma

a= F/m

a=21,750/2125

a= 10.23m/s^2

Hence the acceleration is 10.23m/s^2

The total amount of fresh water on earth is estimated to be 3.73 x 10^8 km^3. What is this volume in cubic meters? in cubic feet
Burka [1]
One km^3 is 1,000,000,000 m^3=10^9 m^3 hence 3.73 10^8 km^3 is 3.73 10^17 m^3

One meter is 3.28084 feet hence 1 m^3 is (3.28084)^3 feet

Thus 3.73 10^8 km^3 is 3.73*35.315 10^17 = 132 cubic feet
