Answer:

6logs

Explanation:f

First finding the volume of the logs

V= π/4d²l

= 0.098m³

So number of logs will be

Weight of 2 boys + weight of log = buoyancy force.

So

2( 400)+ N ( Mlog x g) = density of water x volume displaced x g

2(400) = N x 0.098x 1000x 9.8 x 0.9- 0.75* 1000

N= 5.5 which is approx 6logs

Use Kepler's third law to find the planet's average distance (semimajor axis) from its star. (Hint: Because the mass of the star
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Explanation: The planet average distance = 42300km

Kepler's 3rd Law also known as the Harmonic Law states that;

for each planet orbitting the sun, its side real period squared divided by the cube of the semi-major axis of the orbit is a constant.

A planet, mass m, orbits the sun, mass M, in a circle of radius r and a period t. The net force on the planet is a centripetal force, and is caused the force of gravity between the sun and the planet.

Which of the following can be a centripetal force?a.
Ahat [919]
The answer is D
Friction acts as a centripetal force in the case of a car turning. The friction creates a tangential force allowing the car to turn. 
Tension can act as a centripetal force in the case of circles. Such as swinging a mass on a string, the tension force allows it to move in a curved path. 
Gravity acts as a centripetal force in the case of satellites. The gravity keeps the satellite within the orbit.

What is the purpose of Physical Science?
AnnZ [28]
Both answers are true. Things like basic quantum mechanics helped us better our technology like iPhones. And the second option explains itself. We get to understand the universe better and predict phenomena when we learn more about any Physical Science

A green light is submerged 2.70 m beneath the surface of a liquid with an index of refraction 1.31. What is the radius of the ci
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The radius is  r = 3.1905 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

        The  distance  beneath the liquid  is  d =  2.70 \ m

        The refractive index of the liquid is  n_i  =  1.31

Now the critical value is mathematically represented as

         \theta =  sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{n_i} ]

substituting values

         \theta =  sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{131} ]

         \theta  =  49.76^o

Using SOHCAHTOA rule we have that

         tan \theta =  \frac{ r}{d}

=>     r =  d * tan \theta

substituting values  

        r =  2.7 * tan (49.76)

        r = 3.1905 \ m
