2). The farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes to orbit the sun. Mercury ... 88 days. Earth ... 365 days. Jupiter ... 12 years. Neptune ... 165 years.
3). Mercury & Venus ... no moons Earth - 1 Mars - 2 Jupiter - more than 65
4). Mercury ... cratered, no atmosphere Venus ... cratered, thick cloudy atmosphere Mars ... dry, cratered, slight atmosphere, like 1% or Earth's
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune We can't see any surface. If any of them even HAS a surface, it's thousands of miles under a thick atmosphere of methane gas.
5). Missing from the list
6). Here's a list from the biggest planet to the smallest one. The numbers in parentheses are the radius of the planet -- half of the diameter:
Jupiter (69,911 km / 43,441 miles) – 1,120% the size of Earth Saturn (58,232 km / 36,184 miles) – 945% the size of Earth Uranus (25,362 km / 15,759 miles) – 400% the size of Earth Neptune (24,622 km / 15,299 miles) – 388% the size of Earth Earth (6,371 km / 3,959 miles) Venus (6,052 km / 3,761 miles) – 95% the size of Earth Mars (3,390 km / 2,460 miles) – 53% the size of Earth Mercury (2,440 km / 1,516 miles) – 38% the size of Earth
7). At least seven of the planets rotate in the same direction. There's something different about one of them ... it may be Uranus but I'm not sure. You'll have to look this up.
8). Saturn has the famous rings, that you can almost see with only binoculars. Spacecraft sent to observe the outer planets have detected very thin rings around Uranus and Neptune.
9). Included in #6.
10). I don't have complete info. Generally, the closer the planet is to the sun, the hotter it is. But there are a few exceptions. I think Venus ... the second one from the sun, is actually hotter than Mercury.
11). Just about every language has its own name for each planet.
12). "Terrestrial" means "like Earth" ("Terra"). The terrestrial planets are the ones that have solid surfaces and are made of rock. Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
13). "Jovian" means "like Jupiter". Either no solid surface, or very small, inside a big deep gas ball. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.
<span>Answer:
F = ma
Fx = max
WHERE:
Fx = forces in the x direction
m = mass
ax = acceleration in the x direction
If we look at the figure, there are only two forces in the x direction. The first force is the x component force 4.0 N acting to the right, denoted as +4.0 N. The second force is the 2.0 N force acting to the left, denoted as -2.0 N.
Fx = max
4.0 N - 2.0 N = (7.8 kg)*ax
2.0 N = (7.8 kg)*ax
ax = 0.25641 m/s^2
Because the question is asking you to write it to two significant figures,
==>ax = 0.26 m/s^2</span>
For this interesting problem, we use the definition of centripetal acceleration
a = v² / r
angular and linear velocity are related
v = w r
we substitute
a = w² r
the rectangular body rotates at an angular velocity w
We locate the points, unfortunately the diagram is not shown. In this case we have the axis of rotation in a corner, called O, in one of the adjacent corners we call it A and the opposite corner A
the distance OB = L₂
the distance AB = L₁
the sides of the rectangle
It is indicated that the acceleration in in A and B are related
Elements are listed in order of increasing atomic number from left to right. Each row of the periodic table is called a period and each column of the periodic table is called a group (or family).
