Answer:
<em>a) 3.56 x 10^22 N</em>
<em>b) 3.56 x 10^22 N</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Mass of the sun M = 2 x 10^30 kg
mass of the Earth m = 6 x 10^24 kg
Distance between the sun and the Earth R = 1.5 x 10^11 m
From Newton's law,
F = 
where F is the gravitational force between the sun and the Earth
G is the gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2
m is the mass of the Earth
M is the mass of the sun
R is the distance between the sun and the Earth.
Substituting values, we have
F = 
= <em>3.56 x 10^22 N</em>
<em></em>
A) The force exerted by the sun on the Earth is equal to the force exerted by the Earth on the Sun also, and the force is equal to <em>3.56 x 10^22 N</em>
b) The force exerted by the Earth on the Sun = <em>3.56 x 10^22 N</em>
Answer:
The time taken for the ball to get to the batter is 0.41 s.
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the baseball, u = 45 m/s
horizontal distance between the pitcher and the batter, X = 18.39 m
The horizontal distance or range of a projectile is given as;
X = ut
where;
t is the time of flight
u is the initial velocity
t = X / u
t = 18.39 / 45
t = 0.41 s
Therefore, the time taken for the ball to get to the batter is 0.41 s.
The
two precipitation peaks in Mbandaka during March to April and September to
November is due to the intertropical convergence zone.
Intertropical
convergence zone is a narrow zone located near the equator. It is where the
northern and southern air masses intersect which results to low atmospheric
pressure. Due to the intertropical convergence zone’s meeting of air masses,
often times the air pressure are lower which will results to colder air, or
even rainfall during the period of March to April, and most especially
September to November in Mbandaka.
<span>Since
Mbandaka is located at the cented of Tumba-Ngiri-Maindombe area, which is named
as a Wetland of International importance, there is really a bigger chance that
this place experience above 60mm precipitation in a year, temperatures averaging
from 23 – 26 degrees Celsius.</span>
The amplitude of a wave can be obtained by measuring the distance from the resting position of the wave to its crest. The resting position is half of the distance from the crest to the trough. Given that the distance between the crest and the trough is 3 meters, the amplitude should be half of that, which is 1.5 meters.
This is an example of sublimation where a substance goes directly from solid to a gas, skipping the liquid stage.
