Calculate the angular velocity of the neptune (orbital period of 165 earth period) in its orbit around the sun.

1 answer:

7 0

The correct answer is: Angular velocity = $1.208 * 10^{-9}$ rad/s

Explanation:
The angular velocity is given as:
ω = $\frac{2\pi}{T}$ --- (1)

Where T = 165 * (365 days) * (24 hours/day) * (60 minutes/hour) * (60 seconds/minute) = 5203440000 s

Plug in the value in (1):
ω = $\frac{2\pi}{5203440000} = 1.208 * 10^{-9}$ rad/s

A quantum system has three states, with energies 0, 1.6 × 10-21, and 1.6 × 10-21, in Joules. It is coupled to an environment wit

xenn [34]

To develop the problem it is necessary to apply two concepts, the first is related to the calculation of average data and the second is the Boltzmann distribution.

Boltzmann distribution is a probability distribution or probability measure that gives the probability that a system will be in a certain state as a function of that state's energy and the temperature of the system. It is given by

$z = \sum\limit_i e^{-\frac{\epsilon_i}{K_0T}}$

Where,

$\epsilon_i =$ energy of that state

k = Boltzmann's constant

T = Temperature

With our values we have that

T= 250K

$k = 1.381*10^{23} m^2 kg s^{-2} K^{-1}$

$\epsilon_1=0J$

$\epsilon_2=1.6*10^{-21}J$

$\epsilon_3=1.6*10^{-21}J$

To make the calculations easier we can assume that the temperature and Boltzmann constant can be summarized as

$\beta = \frac{1}{kT}$

$\beta = \frac{1}{(1.381*10^{23} m^2)(250)}$

$\beta = 2.9*10^{20}J$

Therefore the average energy would be,

$\bar{\epsilon} =\frac{\sum \epsilon_i e^{-\beta \epsilon_i}}{\sum e^{-\beta \epsilon_i}}$

Replacing with our values we have

$\bar{\epsilon} = \frac{0e^{-0}+1.6*10^{-21}*e^{-\Beta(1.6*10^{-21})}+1.6*10^{-2-1}*e^{-(2.9*10^{20})(1.6*10^{-21})}}{1+2e^{-2.9*10^{20}*1.6*10^{-21}}}$

$\bar{\epsilon} = 0.9*10^{-22}J$

Therefore the average internal energy is $\bar{\epsilon} = 0.9*10^{-22}J$

MrMuchimi

Answer:

An ion.

Explanation:

Atoms can gain or lose electrons and become ions, which are atoms that have a positive or negative charge, because they have unequal numbers of protons and electrons.

What might cause a theory to change over time?

Olin [163]

Answer:

A theory does not change into a scientific law with the accumulation of new or better evidence. A theory will always remain a theory

Explanation:

theories and laws could potentially be falsified by countervailing evidence. Theories and laws are also distinct from hypotheses.

Is walking just a constant state of falling?

atroni [7]

Answer:

Yes. Walking is controlled falling because you need to let go in order to move forward. If you never let your foot fall, your movements would be stilted and robotic. And according to medical engineers," When we walk normally we are constantly correcting tiny falls to keep ourselves stable."
