The first four planets in our solar system are rocky. How does that relate to Newton’s law of universal gravitation?

Serhud [2]3 years ago

Explanation:

According to Newton law of gravity, the strength of gravitational pull between two objects is related to their masses, directly, and inversely by the distance between them;

F = G * (M₂ – M₁) / d where;

F – the force of gravity

G – gravitational constant

M₂ – the mass of one object

M₁ – the mass of the other object

d – the distance between the two objects

The rocky planets have a higher mass than the gas planets hence will be strongly ‘feel’ the gravitational pull of the star in the solar system revolves about.  This is why rocky planets are closer to their star while gas planets are towards the outer edges.

Why are electrons restricted to specific orbitals?
rodikova [14]
The answer lies in the concept of quantum mechanics. Every single electron of an atom has its own unique set of quantum numbers. It is stated in the Pauli Exclusion principle that no two electrons would have the same quantum numbers. That is why each electron occupies a specific orbital. In addition to the Pauli Exclusion Principle, the other laws and principles that help set the quantum numbers are the Aufbau Principle and the Hund's rule.

A 10g mass of krypton occupies 15.0 l at avpressure of 210 kpa. find the volume
bagirrra123 [75]
From Boyle's law, we can use the equation
     P1V1 = P2V2
to find the volume when the pressure is increased to 760 kPa:      
     V2 = P1V1 / P2      
     V2 = (210 kPa)(15.0 L) / 760 kPa      
     V2 = 4.14 Liters 
Therefore, the volume is 3.99 Liters after the pressure increased to 760 kPa.  

But if the pressure is increased to 790 kPa, the volume of the krypton will decrease to      
     V2 = P1V1 / P2
     V2 = (210 kPa)(15.0 L) / 790 kPa      
     V2 = 3.99 Liters

Examine the layers of rock. How does layering provide evidence for determining geologic age?
ruslelena [56]
Well I can’t see the rocks but, to determine the relative age of different rocks, geologists start with the assumption that unless something has happened, in a sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the newer rock layers will be on top of older ones.

Sugar is easily soluble in water and has a molar mass of 342.30 g/mol. what is the molar concentration of a 252.6 ml aqueous sol
lions [1.4K]

0.811 M is the molar concentration of a 252.6 ml aqueous solution prepared with 70.3 g of sugar.

<h3>Define molarity of a solution.</h3>

Molarity (M) is the amount of a substance in a certain volume of solution. Molarity is defined as the moles of a solute per litres of a solution.

Given data:

252.6 mL = 0.2526 L

Next, we shall determine the number of moles of the sugar. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of sugar = 342.30 g/mol.

Mass of sugar = 70.3 g

Mole of sugar =?

Mole =\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}

Mole =  \frac{70.3 g}{342.30}

Mole of sugar = 0.205 mole

Finally, we shall determine the molar concentration of the sugar. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of sugar = 0.205 mole

Volume =  0.2526 L

Molarity =?

Molarity = \frac{Moles \;solute}{Volume of solution in litre}

Molarity = \frac{0.205 mole}{ 0.2526 L}

Molarity = 0.811 M

Therefore, the molar concentration of the solution is 0.811 M
