The hand saw involved more power because you actually have to cut down. The electric one cut it down on its own

Which best describes why Keplers observation of planetary motion is a law instead of a theory

svet-max [94.6K]

Kepler's first law - sometimes referred to as the law of ellipses - explains that planets are orbiting the sun in a path described as an ellipse. An ellipse can easily be constructed using a pencil, two tacks, a string, a sheet of paper and a piece of cardboard. Tack the sheet of paper to the cardboard using the two tacks. Then tie the string into a loop and wrap the loop around the two tacks. Take your pencil and pull the string until the pencil and two tacks make a triangle (see diagram at the right). Then begin to trace out a path with the pencil, keeping the string wrapped tightly around the tacks. The resulting shape will be an ellipse. An ellipse is a special curve in which the sum of the distances from every point on the curve to two other points is a constant. The two other points (represented here by the tack locations) are known as the foci of the ellipse. The closer together that these points are, the more closely that the ellipse resembles the shape of a circle. In fact, a circle is the special case of an ellipse in which the two foci are at the same location. Kepler's first law is rather simple - all planets orbit the sun in a path that resembles an ellipse, with the sun being located at one of the foci of that ellipse.

10. Hamilton How long does it take Lewis travelling at 156 m.p.h to cover 16 miles?

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: Hello!

Lewis is travelling at 165 mph, which means miles per hour, this says that he does 165 miles in one hour.

We want to know how much time takes to cover 16 miles.

this can be calculated as the quotient of the distance and the velocity; this is:

$t = \frac{16 mi}{165 mi/h} = 0.096 h$

if we want to write this in minutes, then:

we know that one hour has 60 minutes, then 0.096 hours has:

0.096h*60mins/1h = 5.8 minutes.

then Lewis needs 5.8 minutes in order to cover 16 miles if his speed is 156 miles per hour.

Over an interval of 4.0 s the average rate of change of the concentration of B was measured to be -0.0760 M/s. What is the final

Serhud [2]

Complete question:

Consider the hypothetical reaction 4A + 2B → C + 3D

Over an interval of 4.0 s the average rate of change of the concentration of B was measured to be -0.0760 M/s. What is the final concentration of A at the end of this same interval if its concentration was initially 1.600 M?

Answer:

the final concentration of A is 0.992 M.

Explanation:

Given;

time of reaction, t = 4.0 s

rate of change of the concentration of B = -0.0760 M/s

initial concentration of A = 1.600 M

⇒Determine the rate of change of the concentration of A.

From the given reaction: 4A + 2B → C + 3D

2 moles of B ---------------> 4 moles of A

-0.0760 M/s of B -----------> x

$x = \frac{4(-0.076)}{2} \\\\x = -0.152 \ M/s$

⇒Determine the change in concentration of A after 4s;

ΔA = -0.152 M/s x 4s

ΔA = -0.608 M

⇒ Determine the final concentration of A after 4s

A = A₀ + ΔA

A = 1.6 M + (-0.608 M)

A = 1.6 M - 0.608 M

A = 0.992 M

Therefore, the final concentration of A is 0.992 M.
