Answer:1. Roche limit

2.hydrogen

3.atmosphere

4.mercury

5.venus

6.when an object passes the Roche limit, the strength of gravity on the object increases. If the density of the planet is higher, then the object can break up farther away from the planet. If the density is lower, then the Roche limit is located closer to the planet

7.Farther our in the solar system, beyond the frost line, hydrogen was at a low enough temperature that it could condense. This allowed hydrogen to accumulate under gravity, eventually forming the Jovian planets

Lerok [7]

Answer:

0.0000045 s

Explanation:

f = Frequency = 8 MHz

Clock cycle is given by

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{8\times 10^6}=1.25\times 10^{-7}\ s

Time taken for 12 clock cycles

12\times 1.25\times 10^{-7}=0.0000015\ s

Time taken per instruction is 0.0000015 s

In reading and displaying information it requires 3 processes

1 for reading, 1 for searching and 1 for displaying.

3\times 0.0000015=0.0000045\ s

Time taken is 0.0000045 s

A certain fuse "blows" if the current in it exceeds 1.0 A, at which instant the fuse melts with a current density of What is the
Alborosie

Answer:

<em>0.45 mm</em>

Explanation:

The complete question is

a certain fuse "blows" if the current in it exceeds 1.0 A, at which instant the fuse melts with a current density of 620 A/ cm^2. What is the diameter of the wire in the fuse?

A) 0.45 mm

B) 0.63 mm

C.) 0.68 mm

D) 0.91 mm

Current in the fuse is 1.0 A

Current density of the fuse when it melts is 620 A/cm^2

Area of the wire in the fuse = I/ρ

Where I is the current through the fuse

ρ is the current density of the fuse

Area = 1/620 = 1.613 x 10^-3 cm^2

We know that 10000 cm^2 = 1 m^2, therefore,

1.613 x 10^-3 cm^2 = 1.613 x 10^-7 m^2

Recall that this area of this wire is gotten as

A = \frac{\pi d^{2} }{4}

where d is the diameter of the wire

1.613 x 10^-7 = \frac{3.142* d^{2} }{4}

6.448 x 10^-7 = 3.142 x d^{2}

d^{2} =\sqrt{ 2.05*10^-7}

d = 4.5 x 10^-4 m = <em>0.45 mm</em>

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

order   d> a = e> c> b = f

Explanation:

Pascal's law states that a change in pressure is transmitted by a liquid, all points are transmitted regardless of the form

      P₁ = P₂

Using the definition of pressure

      F₁ / A₁ = F₂ / A₂

      F₂ = A₂ /A₁   F₁

Now we can examine the results

a) F1 = 4.0 N A1 = 0.9 m2 A2 = 1.8 m2

     F₂ = 1.8 / 0.9 4

     F₂a = 8 N

b) F1 = 2.0 N A1 = 0.9 m2 A2 = 0.45 m2

    F₂b = 0.45 / 0.9 2

    F₂b = 1 N

c) F1 2.0 N A1 = 1.8 m2 A2 = 3.6 m2

    F₂c = 3.6 / 1.8 2

    F₂c = 4 N

d) F1 = 4.0N A1 = 0.45 m2 A2 = 1.8 m2

    F₂d = 1.8 / 0.45 4.0

    F₂d = 16 m2

e) F1 = 4.0 N A1 = 0.45 m2 A2 = 0.9 m2

   F₂e = 0.9 / 0.45 4

   F₂e = 8 N

f) F1 = 2.0N A1 = 1.8 m2 A2 = 0.9 m2

   F₂f = 0.9 / 1.8 2.0

   F₂f = 1 N

Let's classify the structure from highest to lowest

F₂d> F₂a = F₂e> F₂c> F₂b = F₂f

I mean the combinations are

 d> a = e> c> b = f
