How does the location of the outer planets explain their composition and characteristics?

Physics
1 answer:
Elena-2011 [213]3 years ago
6 0

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune collectively make up the group known as the jovian planets. The general structures of the jovian planets are opposite those of the terrestrial planets. Rather than having thin atmospheres around relatively large rocky bodies, the jovian planets have relatively small, dense cores surrounded by massive layers of gas. Made almost entirely of hydrogen and helium, these planets do not have solid surfaces.

An 800 kHz radio signal is detected at a point 3.2 km distant from a transmitter tower. The electric field amplitude of the sign
hammer [34]

Answer:

1.07 nT

Explanation:

We know that E/B = c where E = electric field amplitude = 320 mV/m = 0.32 V/m, B = magnetic field amplitude and c = speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s.

So, B = E/c

Substituting E and c into B, we have

B = E/c

= 0.32 V/m ÷ 3 × 10⁸ m/s

= 0.1067 × 10⁻⁸ T

= 1.067 × 10⁻⁹ T

= 1.067 nT

≅ 1.07 nT

A 10.0g piece of copper wire, sitting in the sun reaches a temperature of 80.0 C. how many Joules are released when the copper c
Zolol [24]

Answer:

150.8 J

Explanation:

The heat released by the copper wire is given by:

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where:

m = 10.0 g is the mass of the wire

Cs = 0.377 j/(g.C) is the specific heat capacity of copper

\Delta T=40.0 C - 80.0 C=-40.0 C is the change in temperature of the wire

Substituting into the equation, we find

Q=(10.0 g)(0.377 J/gC)(-40.0^{\circ})=-150.8 J

And the sign is negative because the heat is released by the wire.

What is diffraction?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

D) the bending of a wave as it moves around an obstacle or passes through a narrow opening

Explanation:

Even though light travels in straight line, it will bend around objects if their size is comparative to its wavelength. This phenomenon is called diffraction.

Light will also bend if the light travels from one medium to another medium at an angle, but that is called refraction.

Diffraction occurs in one medium. Refraction occurs when light travels from one medium to another.

An overhead electric power line carries a maximum current of 125 A. What is the magnitude of the maximum magnetic field at a poi
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

B= 55.6×10^(-7) Tesla

Explanation:

B= μoI/(2πr)

B:  magnetic field strength

μo: permeability of free space and is equal to  4π×10^(-7) T.m/A

r: distance from the wire

I : current in the wire

B= (4π×10^(-7)×125)/(2π×4.5)

B= 55.6×10^(-7) Tesla

A 60 kg box is lifted by a rope a distance of 10 meters straight up at constant speed. how much power is required to complete th
Nadya [2.5K]
Power=Work/Time
The work done is the energy required to lift the box, fighting the force of gravity. So, Work=Potential energy of the box at 10 meters.

W=PE=mgh=(60)(9.8)(10)=5880J
Finally,
P=W/T=(5880)/(5)=1176Watt

So the answer is 1176 Watts
