Answer:

Halley's comet will next appear in the night sky in the year 2062. It orbits the sun every 75-76 years, so this is the time between appearances.

Bowling balls are roughly the same size, but come in a variety of weights. Given its official radius of roughly 0.110 m, calcula
velikii [3]

Answer:

6.1328 kg

60.16284 N

Explanation:

r = Radius of ball = 0.11 m

\rho = Density of fluid = 1.1\times 10^3\ kg/m^3 (Assumed)

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

m = Mass of ball

V = Volume of ball = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

The weight of the bowling ball will balance the buouyant force

W=F_b\\\Rightarrow mg=V\rho g\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{V\rho g}{g}\\\Rightarrow m=V\rho\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{4}{3}\pi 0.11^3\times 1.1\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow m=6.1328\ kg

The mass of the bowling ball will be 6.1328 kg

Weight will be 6.1328\times 9.81=60.16284\ N

The Event Horizon Telescope needs a 22 micro-arcsecond resolution to view the event horizon regions around black holes. If the a
likoan [24]

Answer:

14869817.395 m

Explanation:

\theta=22 microarcsecond

λ = Wavelength = 1.3 mm

Converting to radians we get

22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}\ radians

From Rayleigh Criterion

\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{1.3\times 10^{-3}}{22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}}\\\Rightarrow D=14869817.395\ m

Diameter of the effective primary objective is 14869817.395 m

It is not possible to build one telescope with a diameter of 14869817.395 m. But, we need this type of telescope. So, astronomers use an array of radio telescopes to achieve a virtual diameter in order to observe objects that are the size of supermassive black hole's event horizon.

h(t) = - 16t2 + 64t + 112 where t is the time in seconds. After how many seconds does the arrow reach it maximum height? Round t
laila [671]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The function of height is given in form of time. For maximum height, we need to use the concept of maxima and minima of differentiation.

h(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+112

Differentiate with respect to t on both the sides, we get

\frac{dh}{dt}=-32t+64

For maxima and minima, put the value of dh / dt is equal to zero. we get

- 32 t + 64 = 0

t = 2 second

Thus, the arrow reaches at maximum height after 2 seconds.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIST just please help with these problems 3
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

16. 68.18 Km/h

17. 3 miles.

Explanation:

16. Determination of the speed

Distance travelled = 150 Km

Time = 2.2 hours

Speed =?

Speed is simply defined as the distance travelled with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed = Distance / time

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed as follow:

Distance travelled = 150 Km

Time = 2.2 hours

Speed =?

Speed = Distance /time

Speed = 150 / 2.2

Speed = 68.18 Km/h

17. Determination of the distance.

Speed = 3 mph

Time = 1 hour

Distance =?

Speed = Distance /time

3 = distance / 1

Distance = 3 miles

Current passes through a solution of sodium chloride. In 1.00 second, 2.68×1016 Na+ ions arrive at the negative electrode and 3.
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

10.6 mA

Explanation:

t = time interval = 1.00 s

q = magnitude of charge on each ion = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

n₁ = number of Na⁺ ions = 2.68 x 10¹⁶

q₁ = charge due to Na⁺ ions = n₁ q = (2.68 x 10¹⁶) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) = 0.004288 C

n₂ = number of Cl⁻ ions = 3.92 x 10¹⁶

q₂ = charge due to Cl⁻ ions = n₂ q = (3.92 x 10¹⁶) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) = 0.006272 C

i₁ = Current due to Na⁺ ions = \frac{q_{1}}{t} = \frac{0.004288}{1} = 0.004288 A

i₂ = Current due to Cl⁻ ions = \frac{q_{2}}{t} = \frac{0.006272}{1} = 0.006272 A

Current passing between the electrodes is given as

i = i₁ + i₂

i = 0.004288 + 0.006272

i = 0.01056 A

i = 10.6 x 10⁻³ A

i = 10.6 mA
