Pluto is not a planet because it's a dwarf planet it's to small to be a planet.

Hopefully this helped =)!

Pluto revolves around a star instead of our SUN. So, it's an "Exo-planet" rather than a Planet. It has declared in 2006 by the scientists.

Hope this helps!

A solid sphere has a temperature of 614 K. The sphere is melted down and recast into a cube that has the same emissivity and emi
krok68 [10]

Answer:581.87 K

Explanation:

Given

Sphere is melted to form a square

Let the radius of sphere be r and square has a side a

Therefore

\frac{4\pi}{3}r^3=a^3

Surface area of sphere A_s=4\pi r^2

Surface area of cube A_c=6a^2

Total emmisive remains same

Thus P=A\epsilon \sigma T^4

A_sT_s^4=A_cT_c^4

\frac{T_c^4}{T_s^4}=\frac{A_s}{A_c}

\frac{T_c^4}{T_s^4}=\frac{1}{2}\times \left ( \frac{4\pi}{3}\right )^{\frac{1}{3}}

\frac{T_c}{T_s}=\frac{1}{2^{0.25}}\times \left ( \frac{4\pi}{3}\right )^{\frac{1}{12}}

T_c=T_s\times \frac{1}{2^{0.25}}\times \left ( \frac{4\pi}{3}\right )^{\frac{1}{12}}

T_c=614\times \frac{1.12679}{1.189}

T_c=581.87 K

A diamond is cut such that the angle between its top surface and its bottom surface is α. For α=45∘, find the largest possible v
Reil [10]

Answer:

i = 61 degree

Explanation:

Given,

\alpha =45^{o}

Now, by the snell's law

sin\theta_c=\frac{1}{n}\\sin\theta_c=\frac{1}{2.450}\\\theta_c=24.09^o

Now,

Sin i / sin r = n 2 / n 1

sin i / sin r (45 - 24.09) = 2.45 / 1

i = 60.97 degree

The greater the mass is in an object, the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. Please select the best
Fofino [41]
This statement is true. The greater the mass is in an object, it is indeed the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. That only mean that the mass of an object and its resistance to change of movement is directly proportional.

Vector ????⃗ has a magnitude of 16.6 and is at an angle of 50.5∘ counterclockwise from the +x‑axis. Vector ????⃗ has a magnitude
natka813 [3]

Answer:

For vector u, x component = 10.558 and  y component =12.808

unit vector = 0.636 i+ 0.7716 j

For vector v, x component = 23.6316 and y component = -6.464

unit vector = 0.9645 i-0.2638 j

Explanation:

Let the vector u has magnitude 16.6

u makes an angle of 50.5° from x axis

So u_x=ucos\Theta =16.6\times cos50.5=10.558

Vertical component u_y=usin\Theta =16.6\times sin50.5=12.808

So vector u will be u = 10.558 i+12.808 j

Unit vector u=\frac{10.558i+12.808j}{\sqrt{10.558^2+12.808^2}}=0.636i+0.7716j

Now in second case let vector v has a magnitude of 24.5

Making an angle with -15.3° from x axis

So horizontal component v_x=vcos\Theta =24.5\times cos(-15.3)=23.6316

Vertical component v_y=vsin\Theta =24.5\times sin(-15.3)=-6.464

So vector v will be 23.6316 i - 6.464 j

Unit vector of v =\frac{23.6316i-6.464}{\sqrt{23.6316^2+6.464^2}}=0.9645i-0.2638j
