Answer:

443.75 N

Explanation:

Weight is the force with which a planet can attract anybody towards its centre.

Weight = mass of body × acceleration due to gravity on that planet

Weight = 50 × 8.875 = 443.75 N

Answer:

Weight on Venus = 443.75 N

Explanation:

Weight of a body is the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

So we have

       Weight =  Mass x Acceleration due to gravity

        W = mg

        Mass, m = 50 kg

        Acceleration due to gravity, g = 8.875 m/s²

        W = 50 x 8.875 = 443.75 N

Weight on Venus = 443.75 N

Describe a well-known hypothesis that was discarded because it was found to be untrue.earth-centered model of the universe. the
polet [3.4K]
The widely accepted hypothesis before that turned out wrong was the Earth-Centered theory or the Geocentric Theory. This was proposed by the philosopher Ptolemy. He came about to this hypothesis from hi observation that from the Earth's perspective, the celestial bodies like the Sun, stars and the moon, look like they rotate around the Earth each day and night. However, this was disproved by Galileo Galelei by his Heliocentric Theory. He observed through the telescope that the Venus also changes phases like the moon. However, he deduced that this is not possible from the positions of the Venus, Earth, Moon and Sun.

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The path length difference = extra distance traveled

The destructive interference condition is:

\Delta d = (m+1/2)\lambda

where m =0,1, 2,3........

So, ←

\Delta d = (m+1/2)\lamb da9/tex]so [tex]\Delta d = \frac{\lambda}{2}

⇒ λ = 2Δd = 2×10 = 20

6. A satellite is orbiting Earth just above its surface. The centripetal force making the satellite follow a circular trajectory
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Engular velocity: w=1,24*10^{-3}/s

Linear velocity: V=7905 m/s

The time it takes:

t=5060s=84min

Explanation:

The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration can be related to the angular velocity and radius as:

(1)a=r*w^{2}

Solving for w:

(2)w=\sqrt{\frac{a}{r} }

Replacing a=9,8m/s2 and r=6,375,000m:

(3)w=\sqrt{\frac{9,8m/s^{2}}{6375000m} }=1,24*10^{-3}/s

And the angular velocity relates to the linear velocity:

V=w*r=1,24*10^{-3}/s*6375000m=7905 m/s

The perimeter of the orbit is:

P=\pi *2*r=\pi *2*6375000m=40.05*10^{6}m

The time it takes:

t=\frac{P}{V} =\frac{40.05*10^{6}m}{7905 m/s}=5060s=84min
