Answer:

Mars and Earth are two of the planets of the solar system. Some of the ways in which Mars is different from Earth are as follows-

The size of the earth is bigger than Mars as Earth has a radius of nearly 6400 km, whereas Mars has a radius of about 3400 km.

The atmosphere of earth is primarily comprised of gases such as 78% of Nitrogen (N₂), 21% of Oxygen (O₂), 0.03% of Carbon dioxide (CO₂), and 0.9% of Argon (Ar), whereas the atmosphere of Mars is mainly comprised of 95% of CO₂, 3% of molecular N₂, and 2% of Ar.

The surface gravity also marks a contrasting difference as on Mars, the gravity at the surface is only about 38%, in comparison to the gravity at the earth's surface.

Ancient Greek philosophers spent lots of time thinking about science and imaging explanations for the natural world. What part o

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Testing

Explanation:

Ancient Greek philosophers lived with the ideology to simply contemplate life. This means that their whole life revolved around thinking and questioning everything. This would include creative thinking, because they would sometimes come up with theories which require creativeness. They would often debate with their friends as to why their theory should be accepted or what their opinions were on the matter. More often than not, they argued a lot, and many philosophers went against some powerful people in the community and some were even sentenced to death.

The main process they didn't/couldn't do was the testing. They could never test certain theories because they did not have the means to.

A steel tank of weight 600 lb is to be accelerated straight upward at a rate of 1.5 ft/sec2. Knowing the magnitude of the force

VikaD [51]

Answer:

a) the values of the angle α is 45.5°

b) the required magnitude of the vertical force, F is 41 lb

Explanation:

Applying the free equilibrium equation along x-direction

from the diagram

we say

∑Fₓ = 0

Pcosα - 425cos30° = 0

525cosα - 368.06 = 0

cosα = 368.06/525

cosα = 0.701

α = cos⁻¹ (0.701)

α = 45.5°

Also Applying the force equation of motion along y-direction

∑Fₓ = ma

Psinα + F + 425sin30° - 600 = (600/32.2)(1.5)

525sin45.5° + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

374.46 + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95

F - 13.04 = 27.95

F = 27.95 + 13.04

F = 40.99 ≈ 41 lb

A grasshopper jumps at a 65.0 degree angle at 5.42m/s. At what time does it reach its maximum height?

crimeas [40]

When the grasshoppers vertical velocity is exactly zero.
v = -g•t + v0.
v: vertical part of velocity. Is zero at maximum height.
g: 9.81
t: time you are looking for
v0: initial vertical velocity
Find the vertical part of the initial velocity, by using the angle at which the grasshopper jumps.

Use Kepler’s third law and the orbital motion of Earth to determine the mass of the Sun. The average distance between Earth and

Anna11 [10]

Kepler’s third law formula: T^2=4pi^2*r^3/(GM)

We’re trying to find M, so:

M=4pi^2*r^3/(G*T^2)

M=4pi^2*(1.496 × 10^11 m)^3/((6.674× 10^-11N*m^2/kg^2)*(365.26days)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))

Let’s work with the units:

(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))=

=(m^3*kg^2)/(N*m^2*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/(N*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/((kg*m/s^2)*days^2)

=(kg)/(days^2/s^2)

=(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

So:

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

Now we need to convert days to seconds in order to cancel them:

1 day=24 hours=24*60minutes=24*60*60s=86400s

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/((86400s)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/( 86400^2*s^2)

M=1.48× 10^40kg/86400^2

M=1.98x10^30kg

The closest answer is 1.99 × 10^30

(it may vary a little with rounding – the difference is less than 1%)
