From Kepler's third law, an asteroid with an orbital period of 8 years lies at an average distance from the Sun equal to:

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The correct option is (B).

Explanation:

The Kepler's third law of motion gives the relationship between the orbital time period and the distance from the semi major axis such that,

$T^2\propto a^3\\\\T^2=ka^3$

It is mentioned that, an asteroid with an orbital period of 8 years. So,

$(8)^2=ka^3\\\\64=ka^3\\\\a=(64)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\\a=4\ AU$

So, an asteroid with an orbital period of 8 years lies at an average distance from the Sun equal to 4 astronomical units.

What is the direction of the magnetic field b⃗ net at point a? Recall that the currents in the two wires have equal magnitudes.

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The direction of a magnetic field indicates where the magnetic inluence on the electric charges are directed to.

From the given question, we are to determine the direction of the magnetic field bnet at a point A.

Also, having the notion that the currents in the two wires have equal magnitudes, Then:

$\bar{B_{net}} = \bar{B_1} + \bar{B_2}$

$\bar{B_{net}} = \frac{\mu_oI}{2 \pi r } \bar {k}+ \frac{\mu_oI}{2 \pi r } \bar {k}$

$\bar{B_{net}} = \frac{2 \mu_oI}{2 \pi r } \bar {k} \ out$

Thus; $\bar{B_{net}}$ points out of the screen at A.

You set a tuning fork into vibration at a frequency of 723 Hz and then drop it off the roof of the Physics building where the ac

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Original Frequency $f=723\ Hz$

apparent Frequency $f'=697\ Hz$

There is change in frequency whenever source move relative to the observer.

From Doppler effect we can write as

$f'=f\cdot \frac{v-v_o}{v+v_s}$

where

$f'=$ apparent frequency

v=velocity of sound in the given media

$v_s=$ velocity of source

$v_0=$ velocity of observer

here $v_0=0$

$697=723\cdot (\frac{343-0}{343+v_s})$

$v_s=(\frac{f}{f'}-1)v$

$v_s=(\frac{723}{697}-1)\cdot 343$

$v_s=12.79\approx 12.8\ m/s$

i.e.fork acquired a velocity of $12.8 m/s$

distance traveled by fork is given by

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

$v_s^2-0=2\times 9.8\times s$

$s=\frac{12.8^2}{2\times 9.8}$

$s=8.35\ m$

When you are standing on Earth, orbiting the Sun, and looking at a broken cell phone on the ground, there are gravitational pull

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The answer is "Option b, c, and a".

Explanation:

Here that the earth pulls on the phone, as it will accelerate towards Earth when we drop it.

We now understand the effects of gravity:

$F \propto M\\\\F\propto \frac{1}{r^2}\\\\or\\\\F \propto \frac{M}{r^2}\\\\Sun (\frac{M}{r^2}) = \frac{10^{28}}{(10^9)^2} = 10^{10}$

The force of the sun is, therefore, $10^{10}$ times greater and the proper sequence, therefore, option steps are:

b. Pull-on phone from earth

c. Pull-on phone from sun

a. Pull phone from you

A block moves at 5 m/s in the positive x direction and hits an identical block, initially at rest. A small amount of gunpowder h

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Speed of 1.83 m/s and 6.83 m/s

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of momentum

$mv_o=m(v_1 + v_2)$ where m is the mass, $v_o$ is the initial speed before impact, $v_1$ and $v_2$ are velocity of the impacting object after collision and velocity after impact of the originally constant object

$5m=m(v_1 +v_2)$

Therefore $v_1+v_2=5$

After collision, kinetic energy doubles hence

$2m*(0.5mv_o)=0.5m(v_1^{2}+v_2^{2})$

$2v_o^{2}=v_1^{2} + v_2^{2}$

Substituting 5 m/s for $v_o$ then

$2*(5^{2})= v_1^{2} + v_2^{2}$

$50= v_1^{2} + v_2^{2}$

Also, it’s known that $v_1+v_2=5$ hence $v_1=5-v_2$

$50=(5-v_2)^{2}+ v_2^{2}$

$50=25+v_2^{2}-10v_2+v_2^{2}$

$2v_2^{2}-10v_2-25=0$

Solving the equation using quadratic formula where a=2, b=-10 and c=-25 then $v_2=6.83 m/s$

Substituting, $v_1=-1.83 m/s$

Therefore, the blocks move at a speed of 1.83 m/s and 6.83 m/s
