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

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Either heat added or mechanical work done.

Explanation:

Since he found stirring rod on the desk and a cigarette lighter. This means that the beaker was probably either heated with the aid of fire from the lighter.

Also, the stirring rod could have been used to stir the water which will increase the kinetic energy which also means an increase in temperature.

Thus, it's either heat was added or mechanical work was done as a result of stirring.

Guys help me with this question.​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Brownian motion is a random (irregular) motion of particles e.g smoke particle. The set up in the diagram can be used to observe the motion of smoke.

1. The apparatus used are:

A is a source of light

B is a converging lens

C is a glass smoke cell

D is a microscope

2. The uses of the apparatus are:

A - produces the light required to so as to see clearly the movement of the particles.

B - converges the rays of light from the source to the smoke cell.

C - is made of glass and used for encamping the smoke particles so as not to mix with air.

D - is used for the clear view or observation or study of the motion of the smoke particles in the cell.

If the Earth were compressed in such a way that its mass remained the same, but the distance around the equator were just one-ha
vovikov84 [41]
If the distance around the equator is reduced by half, then the radius is also reduced by half.

Since the acceleration due to gravity is proportional to 1/(radius²),
the acceleration changes by a factor of 1/(1/2)² = 1/(1/4) = <em>4 </em>.

The acceleration due to gravity ... and also the weight of everything on Earth ...
becomes <em>4 times what it is now</em>.
