<h2>Answer: B. Period of the orbit</h2>

Explanation:

According to the Third Kepler’s Law of Planetary motion “The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.

Talking in general, this law states a relation between the orbital period $T$ of a body (moon, planet, satellite) orbiting a greater body in space with the size $a$ of its orbit.

This Law is originally expressed as follows:

$T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}a^{3}$

Where;

$G$ is the Gravitational Constant

$M=1.9(10)^{27}kg$ is the mass of the massive (greater) body

$a$ is the semimajor axis of the orbit of the smaller body

The conventional relatively small unit for work(ignoring time) such as raising one pound one foot is the foot-pound(ft. lb.). Si

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1 joule = 0.737 foot-pound

Joule is the unit of work.

1 J = 1 N·m

In SI units

1 J = 1 kg· m/s²

0.737 foot-pound is the amount of work to raise 0.737 pounds one foot or raising one pound to 0.737 ft.

Which statement regarding sound traveling in air is correct?

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: D. A wave with a shorter wavelength is always faster than one with a longer wavelength

Explanation: "Imagine two sets of waves that have the same speed. If one set has a longer wavelength, it will have a lower frequency (more time between waves). If the other set has a shorter wavelength, it will have a higher frequency (less time between waves). Light moves even faster AND has shorter wavelengths."

Why it's not C: "The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. As the frequency decreases, the wavelength gets longer."

Why it's not B: "The frequency does not change as the sound wave moves from one medium to another. Since the speed changes and the frequency does not, the wavelength must change."

Why it's not A: "Do loud sounds travel faster than soft sounds? No. Both travel at the same speed The speed depends on the medium it passes through. Louder sounds are simply sound waves with higher amplitude traveling at the same speed."
