Answer:

(a) Radius = 4.6 x 10^11 m

(b) speed = 16.96 km/s

Explanation:

Time period, T = 5.4 earth years

mass of sun, M = 1.989 x 10^30 kg

(a) Let the orbital radius is R.

use the formula of period

T^2 = \frac{4 \pi^2 R^3}{G M}\\\\\left ( 5.4\times 365\times 24\times 3600 \right )^2 = \frac{4\times3.14\times 3.14\times R^3}{6.67\times10^{-11}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}\\\\R = 4.6\times 10^{11} m

(b) Let the speed is v.

v=\frac{2 \pi\times R}{T}\\\\v=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 4.6\times 10^{11}}{5.4\times 365\times 24\times 3600}\\\\v = 16963.6 m/s =16.96 km/s

A stone is thrown vertically upwards with a speed of 30.0 m/s.
matrenka [14]

a)

Y₀ = initial position of the stone at the time of launch = 0 m

Y = final position of stone = 20.0 meters

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial speed of stone at the time of launch = 30.0 m/s

v = final speed = ?

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

inserting the values

v² = 30² + 2 (- 9.8) (20 - 0)

v = 22.5 m/s


b)

Y₀ = initial position of the stone at the time of launch = 0 m

Y = maximum height gained

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial speed of stone at the time of launch = 30.0 m/s

v = final speed = 0 m/s

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

inserting the values

0² = 30² + 2 (- 9.8) (Y - 0)

Y = 46 m
