For astronomical objects, the time period can be calculated using:
T² = (4π²a³)/GM
where T is time in Earth years, a is distance in Astronomical units, M is solar mass (1 for the sun)
Thus,
T² = a³
a = ∛(29.46²)
a = 0.67 AU
1 AU = 1.496 × 10⁸ Km
0.67 * 1.496 × 10⁸ Km
= 1.43 × 10⁹ Km

1)
p = 2.4 * 10^5 Pa
T = 18° C + 273.15 = 291.15 k
r = 0.25 m => V = [4/3]π(r^3) = [4/3]π(0.25m)^3 = 0.06545 m^3 = 65.45 L

Use ideal gas equation: pV = nRT => n = pV / RT = [2.4*10^5 Pa * 0.06545 m^3] / [8.31 J/k*mol * 291.15k] = 6.492 mol

Avogadro number = 1 mol = 6.022 * 10^23 atoms

Number of atoms = 6.492 mol * 6.022 *10^23 atom/mol = 39.097 * 10^23 atoms = 3.91 * 10^24 atoms

2) Double atoms => double volume

V2 / V1 = r2 ^3 / r1/3

2 = r2 ^3 / r1 ^3 => r2 ^3 = 2* r1 ^3

r2 = [∛2]r1

The factor is ∛2

Determine the volume of a cube whose width is 32.1 cm. Round your answer to the correct number significant figures.
Romashka [77]

The volume of a cube is given by:

V=L^3

where L is the measure of each side (which corresponds to its width, since all sides of a cube are equal).

Plugging the data of the problem, L=32.1 cm, inside the equation, we find the volume:

V=L^3 =(32.1 cm)^3 =33076.2 cm^3

At the end of the Shock Wave roller coaster ride, the 6000-kg train of cars (includes passengers) is allowed from a speed of 20
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

56250 N

Explanation:

mass, m = 6000 kg

initial speed, u = 20 m/s

final speed, v = 5 m/s

distance, s = 20 m

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

5 x 5 = 20 x 20 + 2 a x 20

25 = 400 + 40 a

a = - 9.375 m/s^2

Braking force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 6000 x 9.375

F = 56250 N
