A bromine atom has an atomic number of 35 and an atomic mass of 80. What is the structure of this atom?

What is the order of magnitude of the distance of Sun to nearest star in meters?

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Approximating the Milky Way as a disk and using the density in the solar neighborhood, there are about 100 billion stars in the Milky Way.

Explanation:

Since we are making an order of magnitude estimate, we will make a series of simplifying assumptions to get an answer that is roughly right.

Let's model the Milky Way galaxy as a disk.

The volume of a disk is:

V

=

π

⋅

r

h

Plugging in our numbers (and assuming that

π

≈

V

(

V

Is the approximate volume of the Milky Way.

Now, all we need to do is find how many stars per cubic meter (

ρ

) are in the Milky Way and we can find the total number of stars.

Let's look at the neighborhood around the Sun. We know that in a sphere with a radius of

4

×

16

m there is exactly one star (the Sun), after that you hit other stars. We can use that to estimate a rough density for the Milky Way.

ρ

Using the volume of a sphere

Going back to the density equation:

ρ

Plugging in the density of the solar neighborhood and the volume of the Milky Way:

stars (or 100 billion stars)

Is this reasonable? Other estimates say that there are are 100-400 billion stars in the Milky Way. This is exactly what we found.

A satellite has a mass of 5832 kg and is in a circular orbit 4.13 × 105 m above the surface of a planet. The period of the orbit

elena55 [62]

Answer:

W = 28226.88 N

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the satellite, m = 5832 Kg

Height of the orbiting satellite from the surface, h = 4.13 x 10⁵ m

The time period of the orbit, T = 1.9 h

= 6840 s

The radius of the planet, R = 4.38 x 10⁶ m

The time period of the satellite is given by the formula

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{(R+h)^{3} }{R^{2} g} }$ second

Squaring the terms and solving it for 'g'

g = 4 π² $\frac{(R+h)^{3} }{R^{2}T^{2} }$ m/s²

Substituting the values in the above equation

g = 4 π² $\frac{(4.38X10^6+4.13X10^5)^{3} }{(4.38X10^6)^{2}X6840^{2}}$

g = 4.84 m/s²

Therefore, the weight

w = m x g newton

= 5832 Kg x 4.84 m/s²

= 28226.88 N

Hence, the weight of the satellite at the surface, W = 28226.88 N

In Newton's third law, the action and reaction forces D.)act on different objects

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force on object B (action force), then action B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction force) on object A"</em>

It is important to note from the statement above that the action force and the reaction force always act on different objects. Let's take an example: a man pushing a box. We have:

Action force: the force applied by the man on the box, forward
Reaction force: the force applied by the box on the man, backward

As we can see from this example, the action force is applied on the box, while the reaction force is applied on the man: this means that the two forces do not act on the same object. This implies that whenever we draw the free-body diagram of the forces acting on an object, the action and reaction forces never appear in the same diagram, since they act on different objects.

Does the sun sun traces shortest path across local sky on june solstice

viktelen [127]

The June solstice in the Northern hemisphere is the summer solstice. The June Solstice in the Southern hemisphere is the winter solstice. The summer solstice is equivalent to the longest day while the winter solstice is equivalent to the shortest day. Therefore on the local sky, when is the June solstice we have have the longest day (longest path of sun in the sky) in the Northern hemisphere and the shortest day (shortest path of sun in the sky) in the Southern hemisphere.
