Answer:

261 million km

Explanation:

Venus has an almost perfectly circular orbit with 0.007 eccentricity. Earth however has an elliptical orbit with 0.016 eccentricity. Distance of Earth from Venus at its farthest is 261 million km. So, the difference in the farthest and closest distance is very high almost 220 million km. At the farthest Venus is 108,939,000 km from the sun and 107,477,000 km at its closest from the Sun.

Answer:

162 million km

Explanation:

The nearest distance between Earth and Venus is 41 million kilometers. Whereas the Farthest distance between Earth and Venus is 162 million kilometers. The Venus is the hottest planet of the solar system. It is also called Evening and morning star, as it appears brightest in the sky in morning and Evening after moon.

A see-saw is balanced on a pivot with two children on it. One child is sitting 1.5 m to the left of the pivot and has a mass of
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

This is a second class lever. It is much more efficient than the fishing pole problem. All distances are measured from the pivot in these kinds of questions.

Givens

d1 = 1.5

d2 = ?

m1 = 50 kg

m2 = 30 kg

The lighter child will have to sit further away from the pivot to make the two conditions equal.

Formula

d1*m1 = d2*m2

1.5*50 = d2 * 30

75 = 30 * d2

75/30 = d2

d2 = 2.5

Remark

Notice that the distance is longer for the lighter child. The fact that these are masses and not forces does not matter, but you should take note of it. There is a difference between masses and forces. See the fishing pole problem.

Answer to the multiple Choice question. No motion on this kind of problem means equal moments. The answer is D

Problem 2

1) The wheels are further apart making B more stable. The wider the distance the wheels are apart, the harder it would be to tip the concrete mixer over

2) The center of gravity is lower. The higher the force is the more chance you have of exerting an external force to tip the mixer over.

A 4.79 g bullet moving at 642.3 m/s penetrates a tree trunk to a depth of 4.35 cm. Use work and energy considerations to find th
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Force, F=2.27\times 10^4\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bullet, m = 4.79 g = 0.00479 kg

Initial speed of the bullet, u = 642.3 m/s

Distance, d = 4.35 cm = 0.0435 m

To find,

The magnitude of force required to stop the bullet.

Solution,

The work energy theorem states that the work done is equal to the change in its kinetic energy. Its expression is given by :

F.d=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)

Finally, it stops, v = 0

F.d=-\dfrac{1}{2}m(u^2)

F=\dfrac{-mu^2}{2d}

F=\dfrac{-0.00479\times (642.3)^2}{2\times 0.0435}

F = -22713.92 N

F=2.27\times 10^4\ N

So, the magnitude of the force that stops the bullet is 2.27\times 10^4\ N

In order to do work, the force vector must be
gregori [183]

As we know that total work done by a force is given by

W = F.d

W = Fdcos\theta

so it is product of force and displacement along same direction

as we can write it as

W = (Fcos\theta)(d)

so it must be the product of force and displacement in same directions so correct answer must be

<u>B. in the same direction as the displacement vector and the motion.</u>

Estimate (a) the maximum, and (b) the minimum thermal conductivity values (in W/m-K) for a cermet that contains 83 vol% carbide
velikii [3]

Answer:

  k_max = 31.82 w/mk

  k_min  = 17.70 w/mk

Explanation:

a) the maximum thermal conductivity is given as

k_{max} = k_m*v_m + k_p*v_p

where k_m is thermal conductvitiy of metal

k_p is thermal conductvitiy of carbide

v_m = proportion of metal in the cement = 0.17

v_p = proportion of carbide in the cement = 0.83

            = 66*0.17 + 28*0.83

           k_max = 31.82 w/mk

b) the minimum thermal conductivity is given as

k_{min} = \frac{k_{carbide}* k_{metal}}{k_{metal} v_{carbide} +k_{metal} v_{carbide}}

          = \frac{28+66}{28*0.17 +66*0.83}

       k_min  = 17.70 w/mk
