Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, but its mean temperature is only 67°C. why is this?​

Physics

Explanation:

Mercury is the closest planet to the sum, but its mean temperature is only 67°C. This is because Mercury has almost no atmosphere to hold in heat and keep the surface warm.

Hope it will help :)❤

mina [271]

Answer:

-2.13 V

Explanation:

Given parameters are:

v_i = 1 * 10^6 m/s

v_f = 5 * 10^5 m/s

q = -e = 1.602 * 10^{-19} C

m = 9.109 * 10^{-31} kg

By conservation of energy principle, we know that the potential difference between two points is equal to the change in the kinetic energy between these points.

-\Delta U = \Delta KE\\\\-e\Delta V = \frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2

Hence,

1.602*10^{-19}\Delta V = \frac{1}{2}*9.11*10^{-31}((5*10^5)^2 - (1*10^6)^2)

⇒ \Delta V = -2.13 V

When storm clouds produce lightning and thunder, energy changes to energy and energy.
balandron [24]
When storm clouds produce lightening and thunder, then, potential energy changes into kinectic energy.

The clouds become negatively charged,and the ground is positively charged during a storm. So there creates a potential difference between the charged clouds and the ground. And when this becomes huge so much that it over comes the electrical insulation cover of air, the electrons jump to the ground.i.e. the potential energy changes into kinetic energy.

It is weigh-in time for the local under 85 kg rugby team. The bathroom scale used to assess eligibilty can be described by Hooke
Varvara68 [4.7K]
<span>k = 1.7 x 10^5 kg/s^2 Player mass = 69 kg Hooke's law states F = kX where F = Force k = spring constant X = deflection So let's solve for k, the substitute the known values and calculate. Don't forget the local gravitational acceleration. F = kX F/X = k 115 kg* 9.8 m/s^2 / 0.65 cm = 115 kg* 9.8 m/s^2 / 0.0065 m = 1127 kg*m/s^2 / 0.0065 m = 173384.6154 kg/s^2 Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 1.7 x 10^5 kg/s^2 Since Hooke's law is a linear relationship, we could either use the calculated value of the spring constant along with the local gravitational acceleration, or we can simply take advantage of the ratio. The ratio will be both easier and more accurate. So X/0.39 cm = 115 kg/0.65 cm X = 44.85 kg/0.65 X = 69 kg The player masses 69 kg.</span>
