  <span>I'll tell you how to do it but you must crunch the numbers. 

Use Kepler's 3rd Law 

T^2 = k R^3 

where k = 4(pi)^2/ GM 
G =gravitational constant = 6.67300 × 10-11 m3 kg-1 s-2 
M = mass of this new planet 
pi = 3.14159265 
T =3.09 days = 266976 seconds 
R = (579,000,000km)/9 = 64333333.3 km 

a) 
Solve Kepler's 3rd Law for M. Your answer will be in kg 


b)

A shopping cart rolls from x=19.9m to x=5.40m with an average velocity of -0.418m/s. How much time did it take? (unit=s)
andrew11 [14]

Given

initial position = Xi= 19.9m

Final position Xf = 5.4m

Average velocity= Va = -0.418m/s

it shows displacement is reverse.

To find  t=?

As   Va = (Xf- Xi) / t

t = (Xf-Xi) / ( Va)

t = ( 5.4-19.9) / (-0.418)

t = (-14.5 ) / (-0.418)   (-ve sign cancel out at numerator and denominator)

t =34.69 s

An experiment is conducted on a long straight wire of diameter d. A constant current is sent through the wire and the magnetic f
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

To solve the exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Magnetic Field described by Faraday.

The magnetic field is given by the equation:

B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi d}

Where,

\mu = Permeability constant

d = diameter

I = Current

For the given problem we have a change in the diameter, twice that of the initial experiment, therefore we define that:

B_1 = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi d}

B_2 = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi 2d}

The ratio of change between the two is given by:

\frac{B_2}{B_1} = \frac{\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi d}}{\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi 2d}}

\frac{B_2}{B_1} = \frac{d}{2d}

\frac{B_2}{B_1} = \frac{1}{2}

B_2 = B_1 \frac{1}{2}

Therefore the correct answer is D.
