Answer:
The waste product of photosynthesis is oxygen
Answer:
Less than Mercury's
Explanation:
According to third Kepler's law, the square of the planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of the average orbital radius of the planet's orbit. The constant of proportionality depends only on the mass of the star, recall that 51 Peg has the same mass as the Sun. Since the orbital period of this planet is less than Mercury's, its average orbital radius is less than Mercury's.
Answer:
M[min] = M[basket+people+ balloon, not gas] * ΔR/R[b]
ΔR is the difference in density between the gas inside and surrounding the balloon.
R[b] is the density of gas inside the baloon.
====================================
Let V be the volume of helium required.
Upthrust on helium = Weight of the volume of air displaced = Density of air * g * Volume of helium = 1.225 * g * V
U = 1.225gV newtons
----
Weight of Helium = Volume of Helium * Density of Helium * g
W[h] = 0.18gV N
Net Upward force produced by helium, F = Upthrust - Weight = (1.225-0.18) gV = 1.045gV N -----
Weight of 260kg = 2549.7 N
Then to lift the whole thing, F > 2549.7
So minimal F would be 2549.7
----
1.045gV = 2549.7
V = 248.8 m^3
Mass of helium required = V * Density of Helium = 248.8 * 0.18 = 44.8kg (3sf)
=====
Let the density of the surroundings be R
Then U-W = (1-0.9)RgV = 0.1RgV
So 0.1RgV = 2549.7 N
V = 2549.7 / 0.1Rg
Assuming that R is again 1.255, V = 2071.7 m^3
Then mass of hot air required = 230.2 * 0.9R = 2340 kg
Notice from this that M = 2549.7/0.9Rg * 0.1R so
M[min] = Weight of basket * (difference in density between balloon's gas and surroundings / density of gas in balloon)
M[min] = M[basket] * ΔR/R[b]
