Okay! ummm
Planetary satellites can orbit their planets in the same direction as the planets rotation, or in the opposite direction.

Hope this helped!

Astronomers discover an exoplanet, a planet obriting a star other than the Sun, that has an orbital period of 3.27 Earth years i

Naddik [55]

Answer:

r = 3.787 10¹¹ m

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using Newton's second law, where force is the force of universal attraction and centripetal acceleration

F = ma

G m M / r² = m a

The centripetal acceleration is given by

a = v² / r

For the case of an orbit the speed circulates (velocity module is constant), let's use the relationship

v = d / t

The distance traveled Esla orbits, in a circle the distance is

d = 2 π r

Time in time to complete the orbit, called period

v = 2π r / T

Let's replace

G m M / r² = m a

G M / r² = (2π r / T)² / r

G M / r² = 4π² r / T²

G M T² = 4π² r3

r = ∛ (G M T² / 4π²)

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

T = 3.27 and (365 d / 1 y) (24 h / 1 day) (3600s / 1h)

T = 1.03 10⁸ s

Let's calculate

r = ∛[6.67 10⁻¹¹ 3.03 10³⁰ (1.03 10⁸) 2) / 4π²2]

r = ∛ (21.44 10³⁵ / 39.478)

r = ∛(0.0543087 10 36)

r = 0.3787 10¹² m

r = 3.787 10¹¹ m

A long wave with a period of about 15 minutes will travel across the oceans at a speed of approximately _______.

Temka [501]

The speed of the wave is mathematically given as

v=2266.66m/s

A long wave with a period of about 15 minutes will travel across the oceans at a speed of approximately v=2266.66m/s

<h3>Speed of the wave</h3>

Question Parameters:

A long wave with a period of about 15 minutes

Generally the equation for the Wave velocity is mathematically given as

v=\lambda * frequency

Where

f=1/t

Therefore

v=\lambda * frequency

v=\lambda * 1/t

Therefore, with wavelenght of the ocean as 34km

v=34*1000*1/15

v=2266.66m/s

How long does it take electrons to get from

OlgaM077 [116]

We need to find the time it takes an electron to move in the given circuit.

The time taken for electrons to reach the starting motor from the battery is 60.65 minutes.

I = Current = 134 A

$N_A$ = Avogadro's number = $6.022\times 10^{23}\ \text{mol}^{-1}$

A = Area = $38.9\ \text{mm}^2$

L = Length = 92.2 cm

$\rho$ = Density of copper = $8960\ \text{kg/m}^3$

M = Molar mass of copper = 63.5 g/mol

$n_v$ = Number of valence electrons of copper = 1

e = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ \text{C}$

Number of charge carriers per unit volume is given by

$n=\dfrac{\rho N_An_v}{M}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{8960\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\times 1}{63.5\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow n=8.497\times 10^{28}\ \text{m}^{-3}$

Time taken is given by

$t=\dfrac{LAne}{I}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{92.2\times 10^{-2}\times 38.9\times 10^{-6}\times 8.497\times 10^{28}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{134}=3638.83\ \text{s}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{3638.83}{60}=60.65\ \text{minutes}$
