Answer:

7 miles southwest

9 steps to the left

75 mph north

Explanation:

A vector quantity is any physical quantity that specifies the magnitude of the quantity and its direction.

So, the choices that gives a magnitude and direction are vectors.

The other type of physical quantities are the scalar which only specifies the magnitude but no direction;

9 steps to the left and 7 miles southwest are called displacement

75 mph north is velocity

Jupiter's satellite Europa orbits Jupiter with a period of 3.55 d at an orbital radius of 6.71 108 m (assume the orbit to be cir

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

(a)

M = 1.898 x 10^27 kg

(b)

v = 13.74 km/s

Explanation:

Time period, T = 3.55 days = 3.55 x 24 x 3600 second = 306720 s

Radius, r = 6.71 x 10^8 m

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

(a) $T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^{3}}{GM}}$

$M=\frac{4\pi ^{2}r^{3}}{GT^{2}}$

$M=\frac{4\times3.14^{2}\times 6.71^{3}\times 10^{24}}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 306720^{2}}$

M = 1.898 x 10^27 kg

(b) Let v be the orbital velocity

$v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}$

$v=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 6.71\times 10^{8}}{306720}$

v = 13739.5 m/s

v = 13.74 km/s

(b) The gravitational field E is given by

$E = \frac{GM}{r^{2}}$

$E = \frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times 1.898\times 10^{27}}{6.71^{2}\times 10^{16}}$

E = 0.28 N/kg

Which fact was most likely discovered between the time of Mendeleev’s table and the time of Moseley’s table that helped Moseley

igomit [66]

Answer:

The number of protons in an atom is different than the atom's total mass.

Explanation:

Mendeleev had presented the first structured periodic table in 1869. But, in 1913, Henry Moseley developed the modern periodic table. The crucial difference between the two periodic tables is that Mendeleev's periodic table is generated on the basis of the atomic masses of chemical elements while the chemical element's atomic numbers were the main focus of Moseley's periodic table. There were just 56 chemical elements in Mendeleev's periodic table. On the other hand, 74 chemical elements are presented in Moseley's periodic table.
