Answer:
T/√8
Explanation:
From Kepler's law, T² ∝ R³ where T = period of planet and R = radius of planet.
For planet A, period = T and radius = 2R.
For planet B, period = T' and radius = R.
So, T²/R³ = k
So, T²/(2R)³ = T'²/R³
T'² = T²R³/(2R)³
T'² = T²/8
T' = T/√8
So, the number of hours it takes Planet B to complete one revolution around the star is T/√8
Answer:
In an elastic collision, the total kinetic energy is conserved, while in an inelastic collision, it is not
Explanation:
Let's define the two types of collision:
- Elastic collision: an elastic collision is a collision in which:
1) the total momentum of the system is conserved
2) the total kinetic energy of the system is conserved
Typically, elastic collisions occur when there are no frictional forces acting on the objects in the system, so that no kinetic energy is lost into thermal energy. An example of elastic collision is the collision between biliard balls.
- Inelastic collision: an inelastic collision is a collision in which:
1 ) the total momentum of the system is conserved
2) the total kinetic energy of the system is NOT conserved
In an elastic collision, part of the total kinetic energy is lost (=converted into thermal energy) due to the presence of frictional forces. An example of inelastic collision is the accident between two cars, in which part of the energy is converted into heat.
<h2>Answer: protons and neutrons.
</h2>
The atomic nuclei of almost all elements consist of protons and neutrons.
The nucleus of an atom has very small dimensions. However, it <u>occupies its central part and concentrates more than 99% of its total mass.
</u>
It is in the nucleus that the protons (positive charge) and neutrons (neutral charge) are found.
Molecules and polyatomic ions are formed by covalent bonds.
