The orbit of mars is never far from the ecliptic. why?

Physics
1 answer:
LekaFEV [45]3 years ago
7 0
The plane of the ecliptic is an imaginary plane that passes from the Sun through the Earth. So Earth has an inclination of zero degrees from the plane.

All planets of our Solar System do not lie in this imaginary plane.

Mars is less than 2 degrees off which is why it appears to be centralized. Jupiter is also less than 2 degrees off. But some such as the Plutoid or Dwarf Planet Pluto can be off as much as 17 degrees.


Hope this gives you a bit understanding!

An 85.0-N crate of apples sits at rest on a ramp that runs from the ground to the bed of a truck. The ramp is inclined at 28.0°
irina [24]

Answer:

A  75.1 N and a direction of 152° to the vertical.

B 85.0 N at 0° to the vertical.

Explanation:

A) The interaction partner of this normal force has what magnitude and direction?

The interaction partner of this normal force is the component of the weight of the crate perpendicular to the ramp. <u>It has a magnitude of 85cos28° = 75.1 N and a direction of 180° - 28° = 152° to the vertical(since it is directed downwards perpendicular to the ramp).</u>

B) The normal and frictional forces are perpendicular components of the contact force exerted on the crate by the ramp. What is the magnitude and direction of the contact force?

Since this force has to balance the weight of the crate, its magnitude is 85.0 N. Its direction has to be vertically opposite to that of the weight.

Since the weight is 180° to the vertical (since it is directed downwards), this force is 0° to the vertical.

<u>So, this force has a magnitude of 85.0 N and a direction of 0° to the vertical.</u>

An image of the moon is focused onto a screen using a converging lens of focal length f= 34.3 cm. The diameter of the moon is 3.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

The diameter of the moon's image is 0.31 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Focal length = 34.3 cm

Diameter of the moon d=3.48\times10^{6}\ m

Mean distance from the earth d=3.85\times10^{8}\ m

At that distance the object is assumes to be at infinity. hence the image will be formed at a distance equal to focal length

So, the image distance is 34.3 cm.

We need to calculate the  diameter of the moon's image

Using formula of magnification

m= \dfrac{image\ distance}{object\ distance}=\dfrac{height\ of\ image}{height\ of\ object}

\dfrac{0.343}{3.85\times10^{8}}=\dfrac{h'}{3.48\times10^{6}}

h'=\dfrac{0.343\times3.48\times10^{6}}{3.85\times10^{8}}

h'=0.0031\ m= 0.31\ cm

Hence, The diameter of the moon's image is 0.31 cm.
