Answer:

False.

Explanation:

First off, the Earth orbits the sun. The sun does not orbit the Earth.

Also, it takes 365 days (1 year) for the Earth to orbit the sun.

I hope this helped.

Answer:

Impedance, Z = 107 ohms

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R = 100 ohms

Inductance, $L=800\ mH=800\times 10^{-3}\ H=0.8\ H$

Capacitance, $C=10\ \mu F=10\times 10^{-6}\ F=10^{-5}\ F$

Frequency, f = 60 Hz

Voltage, V = 120 V

The impedance of the circuit is given by :

$Z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_C-X_L)^2}$ ...........(1)

Where

$X_C$ is the capacitive reactance, $X_C=\dfrac{1}{2\pi fC}$

$X_C=\dfrac{1}{2\pi \times 60\times 10^{-5}}=265.65\ \Omega$

$X_L$ is the inductive reactance, $X_L={2\pi fL}$

$X_L={2\pi \times 60\times 0.8}=301.59\ \Omega$

So, equation (1) becomes :

$Z=\sqrt{(100)^2+(265.65-301.59)^2}$

Z = 106.26 ohms

Z = 107 ohms

So, the impedance of the circuit is 107 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

ryzh [129]

Answer:

Stable atom

Explanation:

A stable atom is one that has a balanced nuclear inter-particle force reaction as such the binding energy of a stable atom is sufficient to permanently keep the nucleus as one unit. Examples of a stable atom are the atoms of monoisotopic elements such as fluorine, sodium, iodine, gold, aluminium, and cobalt.

In a stable atom the expected number of proton, neutron, and electron are present while in an unstable atom or radioactive atom, there are more than the expected number of neutrons or protons, such that the internal energy of the nucleus is excessive and more than the binding energy, which can lead to radioactive decay.
