How are dwarf planets different from true planets?

Physics
1 answer:
morpeh [17]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The only difference between a planet and a dwarf planet is the area surrounding each celestial body. A dwarf planet has not cleared the area around its orbit, while a planet has.

Explanation:

the three criteria of the IAU for a full-sized planet are: It is in orbit around the Sun. It has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape). It has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit .

An object in a fluid experiences a buoyant force from the fluid. If the object is completely immersed, on which does the magnitu
loris [4]

Answer:

Weight of the fluid that the object displaces.

Explanation:

When the fluid is completely immersed in a fluid, it experiences pressure from all the direction. While the object is immersed in the fluid a force acts on it in the opposite direction, i.e., upwards. This force is termed as buoyant force.

Also, as per the Archimedes' Principle, the force experience by the object is the same as the weight of the fluid that gets displaced by the object.

Thus on complete immersion of the object in the fluid, it experiences the force same as the weight of the fluid that gets displaced

A solar cell generates a potential difference of 0.25 V when a 550 Ω resistor is connected across it, and a potential difference
Andre45 [30]

a) 400 \Omega

b) 0.43 V

c) 0.44 %

Explanation:

a)

For a battery with internal resistance, the relationship between emf of the battery and the terminal voltage (the voltage provided) is

V=E-Ir (1)

where

V is the terminal voltage

E is the emf of the battery

I is the current

r is the internal resistance

In this problem, we have two situations:

1) when R_1=550 \Omega, V_1=0.25 V

Using Ohm's Law, the current is:

I_1=\frac{V_1}{R_1}=\frac{0.25}{550}=4.5\cdot 10^{-4} A

2) when R_2=1000 \Omega, V_2=0.31 V

Using Ohm's Law, the current is:

I_2=\frac{V_2}{R_2}=\frac{0.31}{1000}=3.1\cdot 10^{-4} A

Now we can rewrite eq.(1) in two forms:

V_1 = E-I_1 r

V_2=E-I_2 r

And we can solve this system of equations to find r, the internal resistance. We do it by substracting eq.(2) from eq(1), we find:

V_1-V_2=r(I_2-I_1)\\r=\frac{V_1-V_2}{I_2-I_1}=\frac{0.25-0.31}{3.1\cdot 10^{-4}-4.5\cdot 10^{-4}}=400 \Omega

b)

To find the electromotive force (emf) of the solar cell, we simply use the equation used in part a)

V=E-Ir

where

V is the terminal voltage

E is the emf of the battery

I is the current

r is the internal resistance

Using the first set of data,

V=0.25 V is the voltage

I=4.5\cdot 10^{-4}A is the current

r=400\Omega is the internal resistance

Solving for E,

E=V+Ir=0.25+(4.5\cdot 10^{-4})(400)=0.43 V

c)

In this part, we are told that the area of the cell is

A=4.0 cm^2

While the intensity of incoming radiation (the energy received per unit area) is

Int.=5.5 mW/cm^2

This means that the power of the incoming radiation is:

P=Int.\cdot A=(5.5)(4.0)=22 mW = 0.022 W

This is the power in input to the resistor.

The power in output to the resistor can be found by using

P'=I^2R

where:

R=1000 \Omega is the resistance of the resistor

I=3.1\cdot 10^{-4} A is the current on the resistor (found in part A)

Susbtituting,

P'=(3.1\cdot 10^{-4})^2(1000)=9.61\cdot 10^{-5} W

Therefore, the efficiency of the cell in converting light energy to thermal energy is:

\epsilon = \frac{P'}{P}\cdot 100 = \frac{9.6\cdot 10^{-5}}{0.022}=0.0044\cdot 100 = 0.44\%
