What happens during the apparent retrograde motion of a planet?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

The planet will move from east to west for a couple of months in the night sky.

Explanation:

Retrograde motion is an optical effect due to the fact that Earth rotates more quickly than the planet that apparently has a retrograde motion in the sky.

For example, Saturn has a slower speed in its orbit around the Sun. That means that the Earth will pass it, and that will give the effect that the planet is moving backward. That same scenario can be seen between two cars on a highway, the faster car will see the slower car when it passes as it is moving for a short fragment of time in backward.

Remember that the planets in the night sky move from west to east, in the case of a planet with retrograde motion, it will move from east to west for a couple of months.

g A spherical container of inner diameter 0.9 meters contains nuclear waste that generates heat at the rate of 872 W/m3. Estimat
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: The total rate of heat transfer from the container to its surroundings ignoring radiation is 332.67 W.

Explanation:

Given: Inner diameter = 0.9 m

q = 872 W/m^{3}

Now, radii is calculated as follows.

r = \frac{diameter}{2}\\= \frac{0.9}{2}\\= 0.45 m

Hence, the rate of heat transfer is as follows.

Q = q \times V

where,

V = volume of sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

Q = q \times \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}\\= 872 W/m^{3} \times \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times (0.45 m)^{3}\\= 332.67 W

Thus, we can conclude that the total rate of heat transfer from the container to its surroundings ignoring radiation is 332.67 W.

What is the net force needed to accelerate a 5 kg object at 3 m/s2? Suppose that in this situation you discovered that there is
Rudik [331]

The Force need to accelerate the object is by 3 m/s² is 15 N.  Suppose a friction force of 5 N acts on the motion of the object, the force needed to be applied to the object is 20 N

<h3>Force:</h3>

This can be defined as the product of the mass and the acceleration of a body. The S.I unit of force is kgm/s or Newton(N)

To calculate the force needed to accelerate a mass of 5 kg object at 3 m/s² we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • F = ma........ equation 1

Where:

  • F = Net force needed to accelerate the object
  • m = mass of the object
  • a = acceleration of the object

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 5 kg
  • a = 3 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • F = 5(3)
  • F = 15 N

Suppose a frictional force of 5 N acts on the motion, The force applied is

  • F = F'+ma............ Equation 2

Where:

  • F = Frictional force = 5N

Substitute into equation 2

  • F = 5(3)+5
  • F' = 15+5
  • F = 20 N.

Hence, The Force need to accelerate the object is by 3 m/s² is 15 N. Suppose a friction force of 5 N acts on the motion of the object, the force needed to be applied to the object is 20 N
