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

1 answer:

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>

A projectile of mass 5 kg is fired with an initial speed of 176 m/s at an angle of 32◦ with the horizontal. At the top of its tr

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

v1 = 377.98 m/s

Explanation:

m = 5 Kg

v0 = 176 m/s

v0x = v0*Cos 32° = 176 m/s*Cos 32° = 149.256 m/s

m1 = 2 Kg

m2 = 3 Kg

t = 4.1 s

g = 9.81 m/s²

Before the explosion

pix = m*v0x = 5 Kg*149.256 m/s = 746.282 Kgm/s

piy = 0

After the explosion

pfx = m1*v1x

knowing that pix = pfx

we have

746.282 = 2*v1x

v1x = 373.14 m/s

v2y = g*t

pfy = m1*v1y + m2*v2y

pfy = 2*v1y + 3*(9.81*4.1)

pfy = 2*v1y + 120.663

knowing that piy = pfy = 0

we have

0 = 2*v1y + 120.663

v1y = 60.33 m/s

Finally we apply

v1 = √(v1x² + v1y²)

v1 = √(373.14² + 60.33²)

v1 = 377.98 m/s

The energy of a photon is proportional to its a) amplitude. d) wave number, k-2m/A c) velocity. b) frequency

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Frequency

Explanation:

Photons are the packet of energy. They are massless and chargeless particles. They travel in the vacuum with the speed of light. The energy of photon is given by :

$E=h\nu$

Where

h = Planck's constant

$\nu$ = frequency of photon

Or $E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}$

c = speed of light

$\lambda$ = wavelength of photon

From the above equation, it is clear that the energy of photon is directly proportional to its frequency.

What is the thinnest soap film (excluding the case of zero thickness) that appears black when illuminated with light with a wave

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

thinnest soap film is 206.76 nm

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength = 550 nm

index of refraction n = 1.33

to find out

What is the thinnest soap film

solution

we have wavelength λ = 550 nm

that is λ = 550 × $10^{-9}$ m

and n = 1.3

we will find the thickness of soap film as given by formula that is

thickness = λ/2n

thickness = 550 × $10^{-9}$ / 2(1.33)

thickness = 206.76 × $10^{-9}$ m

thinnest soap film is 206.76 nm

Vinvika [58]

It'll be my pleasure to analyze the circuit, describe my analysis in detail,
and give you a clear, precise, and accurate answer.

As soon as you let me see the circuit diagram, with values marked on
all of its components and power sources.
