What 3 points must an object possess to be considered a planet

Physics
1 answer:
Vitek1552 [10]3 years ago
4 0
<span>1. It must be an object which independently orbits the Sun (this means moons can't be considered planets, since they orbit planets)
2. It must have enough mass that its own gravity pulls it into a spheroidal shape.
3. </span><span>It must be large enough to "dominate" its orbit (i.e. its mass must be much larger than anything else which crosses its orbit).</span>

1. Why is the theory that all things are made up of atoms a theory and not a fact?
steposvetlana [31]
Because there is no record of all things. As we have partially unknow information, it can never be held as a fact.

Photons of infrared radiation with wavelengths longer than those of visible light will have what kind of energy compared to that
densk [106]

Answer:

Infrared photons carry lower radiation energy than the visible light.

Explanation:

  • Each photon carries an energy that is directly proportional to its frequency, being this proportionality constant the Planck's constant h.
  • So, we can write the energy of a single photon as follows:

       E = h*\nu (1)

  • Since there exists an inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency, and infrared radiation has longer wavelengths, this means that its frequency is lower than the one of the visible light.
  • So, an infrared photon carries less energy that one of the visible light.

A 7300 N elevator is to be given an acceleration of 0.150g by connecting it to a cable of negligible weight wrapped around a tur
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

α =18.75  rad/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Acceleration a = 0.15 g

We know that   g =10 m/s²

a= 0.15 x 10 = 1.5  m/s²

d= 16 cm

Radius r= 8 cm

Lets take angular acceleration =α rad/s²

As we know that

a= α r

Now by putting the values

1.5 = α  x 0.08

α =18.75  rad/s²

HELP ME PLEASE<br> I don’t know what the answer is.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Hey buddy, here is your answer. Hope it helps you.

Explanation:

Solids.Sound travels fastest through solids. This is because molecules in a solid are packed against each other. When a vibration begins, the molecules of a solid immediately collide and the compression wave travels rapidly.Sound moves slowest through a gas. That’s because the molecules in a gas are spaced very far apart. In order for sound to travel through air, the floating molecules of matter must vibrate and collide to form compression waves. Because the molecules of matter in a gas are spaced far apart, sound moves slowest through a gas.

Sound travels faster in liquids than in gases because molecules are packed more closely together. This means that when the water molecules begin to vibrate, they quickly begin to collide with each other forming a rapidly moving compression wave.

If element X has 14 protons, how many electrons does it have?
Svetlanka [38]
The number of protons and the number of electrons are always the same in an element that is neutral and has no charge. Therefore, this element has 14 electrons.
