Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.

An automobile starter motor has an equivalent resistance of 0.055 Ï and is supplied by a 12.0 v battery which has a 0.0305 Ï int
LiRa [457]
12 V is the f.e.m. \epsilon of the battery. The potential difference that is applied to the motor is actually the fem minus the voltage drop on the internal resistance r:
\epsilon - Ir
this is equal to the voltage drop on the resistance of the motor R:
RI
so we can write:
\epsilon - Ir = RI
and using r=0.0305~\Omega and R=0.055~\Omega we can find the current I:
I= \frac{\epsilon}{R+r}=140~A

Consider steady-state conditions for one-dimensional conduction in a plane wall having a thermal conductivity k = 50 W/m · K and
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

solution:

dT/dx =T2-T1/L

&

q_x = -k*(dT/dx)

<u>Case (1)  </u>

dT/dx= (-20-50)/0.35==> -280 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(-280)*10^3==>14 kW

Case (2)

dT/dx= (-10+30)/0.35==> 80 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(80)*10^3==>-4 kW

Case (2)

dT/dx= (-10+30)/0.35==> 80 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(80)*10^3==>-4 kW

Case (3)

q_x  =-50*(160)*10^3==>-8 kW

T2=T1+dT/dx*L=70+160*0.25==> 110° C

Case (4)

q_x  =-50*(-80)*10^3==>4 kW

T1=T2-dT/dx*L=40+80*0.25==> 60° C

Case (5)

q_x  =-50*(200)*10^3==>-10 kW

T1=T2-dT/dx*L=30-200*0.25==> -20° C

Mercury has a radial acceleration of 3.96 × 10−2 m/s2 and its orbital period is T = 88 days. What is the radius of Mercury’s orb
Maslowich

Answer: 58,045,522,878.8 meters

Explanation:

Ok, the data we have is

Period = T = 88 days

Radial acceleration = ar = 3.96x10^-2 m/s^2

And we know that the equation for the radial acceleration is:

ar = v^2/r = r*w^2

Where v is the velocity. r is the radius and w is the angular velocity.

And we know that:

w = 2*pi*f

where f is the frequency, and:

T = 1/f.

Then we can write:

w = 2*pi/T

and our equation becomes:

ar = r*(2*pi/T)^2

Now we solve this for r.

First we need to use the same units in both equations, so we want to write T in seconds.

T = 88 days,

A day has 24 hours, and one hour has 3600 seconds:

T = 88*24*3600 s =7,603,200s

Then:

3.96x10^-2 m/s^2 = r*(2*3.14/7,603,200s)^2

r = (3.96x10^-2 m/s^2) /(2*3.14/7,603,200s)^2 = 58,045,522,878.8 meters

6. Draw a velocity-time graph for an object originally traveling at -3 m/s. The object
faltersainse [42]

See the graph in attachment

Explanation:

In this problem we have to draw a velocity-time graph for an object travelling initially at -3 m/s, then slowing down and turning around.

In the graph, we see that the initial velocity at time t = 0 is

v_0 = -3 m/s

and it is negative, so below the x-axis.

Later, the object slows down: this means that the magnitude of its velocity increases, therefore (since the velocity is negative) the curve must go upward, approaching and reaching the x-axis (which corresponds to zero velocity).

After that, the object's velocity keep increasing, but now it is positive: this means that the object is travelling in a direction opposite to the initial direction, so it has turned around.
