Answer:

1992 (Early 1990s)

Explanation:

First of all, i would like to define an extrasolar planet as a planet that orbits a start that is not our own.

The first confirmed detections of extrasolar planets occured in the early 1990s (specifically 1992, some say 1995). The name of the first extrasolar planet is widely believed to be called Dimidium or 51 Pegasi b.  

Extrasolar were searched by monitoring stars for slight dimming that might occur as unseen planets pass in front of them.

inn [45]

Answer:

The appropriate response will be "Length must be increased by 0.012%".

Explanation:

The given values is:

ΔT = 5 s/day

Now,

⇒ \frac{\Delta T}{T} =\frac{5}{24\times 60\times 60}

On multiplying both sides by  "100", we get

⇒ \frac{\Delta T}{T}\times 100 =\frac{500}{24\times 60\times 60}

⇒ \frac{\Delta T}{T}\times 100=0.005787 (%)

∵  T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ \frac{\Delta T}{T}% = \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{\Delta l}{l}%

On applying cross multiplication, we get

⇒ \frac{\Delta l}{l}% = 2\times \frac{\Delta T}{T}%

⇒        = 2\times 0.05787

⇒        = 0.011574

⇒        = 0.012%
