<span>Before we can use parallax to measure the distance to a nearby star, we first need to know the Earth-Sun distance.
Not before we find out what the distance between our planet and the Sun is can we use the parallax to measure the distance to a nearby star.

The repulsive force between two protons has a magnitude of 2.00 N. What is the distance between them?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter A.     r = 1.07 x 10⁻¹⁴ m

Explanation:

Data

F = 2 N

d = ?

q = 1.6 x 10 ⁻¹⁹ C

k = 8.987 Nm²/C²

Formula

                 F = K\frac{q1q2}{r^{2}}

Solve for r

                r = \sqrt{\frac{kq1q2}{F}}

Substitution

                r = \sqrt{\frac{8.987 x 10^{9}x1.6 x 10^{-19} x 1.6 x 10x^{-19}}{2}}

Simplification

                r = \sqrt{\frac{2.3 x 10^{-28}}{2}}

                r = \sqrt{1.15 x 10^{-24}}

Result

                r = 1.07 x 10⁻¹⁴ m

Suppose an asteroid had an orbit with a semimajor axis of 4 au. how long would it take for it to orbit once around the sun?
Nitella [24]

It would take <u> 8 years </u> for the asteroid to orbit once around the sun.

What is a semimajor axis?

  • In geometry, the major axis of an ellipse is its longest diameter: a line segment that runs through the center and both foci, with ends at the two most widely separated points of the perimeter.
  • The semi-major axis (major semiaxis) is the longest semidiameter or one half of the major axis, and thus runs from the centre, through a focus, and to the perimeter.
  • The semi-major axis of a hyperbola is, depending on the convention, plus or minus one half of the distance between the two branches.
  • Thus it is the distance from the center to either vertex of the hyperbola.
  • In astronomy, the semi-major axis is one of the most important orbital elements of an orbit, along with its orbital period.
  • For Solar System objects, the semi-major axis is related to the period of the orbit by Kepler's third law.

An intravenous (IV) system is supplying saline solution to a patient at the rate of 0.06 cm3/s through a needle of radius 0.2 mm
horsena [70]

Answer:

Pressure applied to the needle is 7528 Pa

Explanation:

As we know by poiseuille's law of flow of liquid through a cylindrical pipe

the rate of flow through the pipe is given as

Q = \frac{\Delta P \pi r^4}{8\eta L}

now we know that

Q = 0.06 \times 10^{-6} m^3/s

radius = 0.2 mm

Length = 6.32 cm

\eta = 1\times 10^{-3} Pa s

now we have

6 \times 10^{-8} = \frac{\Delta P \pi (0.2 \times 10^{-3})^4}{8(1 \times 10^{-3})6.32 \times 10^{-2}}

3.03 \times 10^{-11} = \Delta P 5.02 \times 10^{-15}

\Delta P = 6028 Pa

now we have

P - 1500 = 6028 Pa

P = 7528 Pa
