Before Pluto was discovered, it was predicted. Astronomers had observed that massive objects can affect the orbits of its neighbors, and, after seeing deviations in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, assumed something substantial existed beyond their orbits.
When Pluto was spotted, it was thought to be the predicted object and was identified as a ninth planet.
A few decades later, astronomers started discovering more and more objects around other stars and didn’t know whether to call them planets or not. There appeared to be a need to define what a planet means, and that led to what some people consider Pluto’s demotion to a dwarf planet.
The International Astronomical Union decided that full-sized planets must orbit the sun, have a round shape, and have cleared their orbits of other objects. Pluto fulfills the first two criteria, but not the third.
It still goes around the sun, it’s round enough, it’s got moons, and behaves like a planet, but the idea is that Pluto did not form the same way as the rest of the planets. Pluto’s orbit is both eccentric and inclined more than the rest of the planets by about 17 degrees. That’s suggests something is different about this object.
This debate about whether to call it a planet or not is silly, because it doesn’t matter to Pluto what you call it. It is an interesting object, goes around the sun, and shows geology and an atmosphere.
There’s a tendency to define objects based on what they are now, but nothing is constant in the universe. There are some issues with the nomenclature, and a definition today may not apply to the same object tomorrow.
The statement that can be used to answer this question is:
"If the cylinder is brought higher then, its temperature when brought down becomes higher because a greater amount of potential energy is converted to thermal energy."
The potential energy is converted to thermal energy when the object is released the velocity becomes higher because of the acceleration due to gravity.
The voltage in the extension cord is 30 V.
The problem above can be solved using ohm's law
⇒ Formula:
V = IR.................. Equation 1
⇒ Where:
- V = Voltage in the extension cord
- I = Current flowing through the extension cord
- R = Resistance of the extension cord.
From the question, I think there was a slight error in the value of the current given it suppose to be 500 A, and not 5.00 A
⇒ Given:
⇒ Substitute these values into equation 1
Hence the voltage in the extension cord is 30 V

Answer:
Part(a): The frequency is 
.
Part(b): The speed of the wave is 
.
Explanation:
Given:
The distance between the crests of the wave, 
.
The time required for the wave to laps against the pier, 
The distance between any two crests of a wave is known as the wavelength of the wave. So the wavelength of the wave is 
.
Also, the time required for the wave for each laps is the time period of oscillation and it is given by 
.
Part(a):
The relation between the frequency and time period is given by
Substituting the value of 
in equation (1), we have
Part(b):
The relation between the velocity of a wave to its frequency is given by
Substituting the value of 
and 
in equation (2), we have
