Star Twinkle but planet do not why

1 answer:

Answer:The total variation in the amount of light entering our eye is not dectiable therefore planets do not twinkle.

Explanation:Stars twinkle, while planets (usually) shine steadily. Why? Stars twinkle because … they're so far away from Earth that, even through large telescopes, they appear only as pinpoints. ... Planets shine more steadily because … they're closer to Earth and so appear not as pinpoints, but as tiny disks in our sky.As light from a star races through our atmosphere, it bounces and bumps through the different layers, bending the light before you see it. Since the hot and cold layers of air keep moving, the bending of the light changes too, which causes the star's appearance to wobble or twinkle.

A satellite is put into an orbit at a distance from the center of the Earth equal to twice the distance from the center of the E

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

995 N

Explanation:

Weight of surface, w= 4000N

Gravitational constant, g, is taken as 9.81 hence mass, m of surface is W/g where W is weight of surface

m= 4000/9.81= 407.7472

Using radius of orbit of 6371km

The force of gravity of satellite in its orbit, $F=\frac {GMm}{(2r)^{2}}=\frac {GMm}{4(r)^{2}}$

Where $G=6.67*10^{-11}$ and $M=5.94*10^{24}$

$F=\frac {(6.67*10^{-11}*5.94*10^{24}*407.7472)}{4*({6.371*10^{6}m)}^{2}}$

F= 995.01142 then rounded off

F=995N

A coil of wire containing N turns is in an external magnetic field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coil and it steadil

krok68 [10]

Answer:

The Resultant Induced Emf in coil is 4∈.

Explanation:

Given that,

A coil of wire containing having N turns in an External magnetic Field that is perpendicular to the plane of the coil which is steadily changing. An Emf (∈) is induced in the coil.

To find :-

find the induced Emf if rate of change of the magnetic field and the number of turns in the coil are Doubled (but nothing else changes).

So,

Emf induced in the coil represented by formula

∈ = $-N\frac{d\phi}{dt}$ ...................(1)
