Answer: The comet's average distance from the sun is 17.6AU
Explanation:
From Kepler's 3rd Law, P^2=a^3
Where P is period in years
and a is length of semi-major axis or the average distance of the comet to the sun.
Given the orbital period to be 74 years
74^2 =a^3
5476 = a^3
Cube root of 5476 =a
17.626 = a
Approximately a= 17.6 AU
Answer:
T=C*P*V
Explanation:
It is said that a variable - let's call 'y' -, is proportional to another - let's call it 'x' - if x and y are multiplicatively connected to a constant 'C'. It means that their product (x*y) can be always equaled to the constant 'C' or their division (
) can be always equaled to 'C'. The first case is the case of the inverse proportionality: It is said that x and y are inversely proportional if
The second case is the case of the direct proportionality: It is said that x and y are directly proportional if
: x is directly proportional to y.
or
: y is directly proportional to x.
Always that any text does not specify about directly or inversely proportionality, it is assumed to mean directly automatically.
For our case, we are said that the temperature T is proportional to the pressure P and the volume V (we assume that it means directly); it is a double proportionality but follows the same rules:
If T were just proportional to P, we would have:
If T were just proportional to V, we would have:
As T is proportional to both P and V, the right equation is:
In order to isolate the temperature, let's multiply (P*V) at each side of the equation:
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
A body can possess velocity at the same time in horizontal and vertical direction
For example
A projectile
Potential Energy = mass * Hight * acceleration of gravity
PE=hmg
PE = 1.5 * .2 * 9.81
PE = 2.943
it lost .6 so 2.943 - .6 = 2.343
now your new energy is 2.343 so solve for height
2.343 = mhg
2.334 = .2 * h * 9.81
h = 1.194
the ball after the bounce only went up 1.194m
"If one increases the force on an object, its acceleration increases too because the push it feels is greater"
We have the 2nd law of Newton that relates the 3 concepts; F=m*a. We have that if the mass of an object increases (put weight in luggage), the accelearation decreases; in fact it is inversely proportional to the mass. Hence if the mass is doubled, acceleration is halved. Accelerations is proportional to force; if one doubles the force, the acceleration doubles too.
