Using Kepler's third law, the average sun -Vesta distance is 2.36 AU.

According to Kepler's laws, the square of the period of revolution of planets are proportional to the cube of their average distances from the sun. Hence, we can write; $T^{2} =r^{3}$

Where;

T = period of the planet

r = average distance of the planet

When;

T = 3.63 years

r = $\sqrt[3]{T^2}$

r = $\sqrt[3]{(3.63)^2}$

r = 2.36 AU

A thin stream of water flows smoothly from a faucet and falls straight down. at one point the water is flowing at a speed of v1

kati45 [8]

<span>The formulas are, v1d1Â˛ = v2d2Â˛ ........ (1) h = (v2Â˛-v1Â˛)/2g ...... (2) Given that, v1 = 1.71 m/s we assume that the stream has decreased by a factor d2 =0.805d1 then, v1d1Â˛ = v2 (0.805d1)Â˛ cancelled both side d1Â˛ then we get, v1 = v2 (0.805)Â˛ v1 = v2 (0.648025) Sub v1 = 1.71, 1.71 = v2 (0.648025) v2 = 1.71/0.648025 v2 = 2.638787083831642 v2 = 2.64 m/s The vertical distance formula, h = (v2Â˛-v1Â˛)/2g We know that value of gravity constant is 9.8 m/sÂ˛ h = {(2.64)Â˛ - (1.71)Â˛)/2(9.8) h = {(6.9696) - (2.9241)}/19.6 h = (4.0455)/19.6 h = 0.2064030612244898 h = 0.21 cm Therefore, the vertical distance h = 0.21 cm.</span>
