Answer:

Efficiency = 71%

Explanation:

Given the following data:

Output energy = 250 Joules

Input energy = 350 Joules

To find efficiency;

$Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; energy}{In-put \; energy} * 100$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Efficiency = \frac {250}{350} * 100$

$Efficiency = 0.7143 * 100$

Efficiency = 71.43 ≈ 71%

Therefore, the efficiency of the candle is 71 percent.

The mass of jupiter is 300 times the mass of the earth. Jupiter orbits the sun with Tjupiter = 11.9 yr in an orbit with Rjupiter

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

c) 11.9 yr

Explanation:

The orbital period is proportional to r^(3/2) and does not depend on the satellite's mass. Any object at Jupiter position will have the same orbital period regardless of mass.

By keppler's law we know that

T^2= r^3

T= orbital time period

r= mean distance of the planet from the Sun.

clearly, The orbital period does not depend on the satellite's mass

there, the correct answer will be c= 11.9 yr.

Add the vectors:

Anettt [7]

Vector 1 has components

$x_1=(10\,\mathrm m)\cos20^\circ\approx9.40\,\mathrm m$

$y_1=(10\,\mathrm m)\sin20^\circ\approx3.42\,\mathrm m$

and vector 2 has

$x_2=(10\,\mathrm m)\cos80^\circ\approx1.74\,\mathrm m$

$y_2=(10\,\mathrm m)\sin80^\circ\approx9.85\,\mathrm m$

Add these vectors to get the resultant, which has components

$x_{\rm total}\approx11.133\,\mathrm m$

$y_{\rm total}\approx13.268\,\mathrm m$

The magnitude of the resultant is

$\sqrt{{x_{\rm total}}^2+{y_{\rm total}}^2}\approx17.321\,\mathrm m$

with direction $\theta$ such that

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{y_{\rm total}}{x_{\rm total}}\implies\theta\approx50^\circ$

or about 50º N of E.
