Answer:

Distance between Venus and Sun is 1.0864x10^11 m

Explanation:

Data

T1 (Total time taken by earth to rotate around sun)=365 days

T2 (Total time taken by venus to rotate around sun)=225 days

R1 (Radius b/w Sun and earth)=1.5x10^11m

R2(Distance between Venus and Sun)=?

Solution

Apply Kepler Law

(R2)^3/(R1)^3=(T1)^2/(T2)^2

(R2)^3/(1.5x10^11)^3=(225^2)/(365^2)

R2=1.0864x10^11m

What best describes myotibrils

krok68 [10]

Myofibrils are composed of long proteins such as actin, myosin, and titin, and other proteins that hold them together. These proteins are organized into thin filaments and thick filaments, which repeat along the length of the myofibril in sections called sarcomeres. Muscles contract by sliding the thin (actin) and thick (myosin) filaments along each other.

Two sinusoidal waves are identical except for their phase. When these two waves travel along the same string, for which phase di

Kamila [148]

Answer:

zero or 2π is maximum

Explanation:

Sine waves can be written

x₁ = A sin (kx -wt + φ₁)

x₂ = A sin (kx- wt + φ₂)

When the wave travels in the same direction

Xt = x₁ + x₂

Xt = A [sin (kx-wt + φ₁) + sin (kx-wt + φ₂)]

We are going to develop trigonometric functions, let's call

a = kx + wt

Xt = A [sin (a + φ₁) + sin (a + φ₂)

We develop breasts of double angles

sin (a + φ₁) = sin a cos φ₁ + sin φ₁ cos a

sin (a + φ₂) = sin a cos φ₂ + sin φ₂ cos a

Let's make the sum

sin (a + φ₁) + sin (a + φ₂) = sin a (cos φ₁ + cos φ₂) + cos a (sin φ₁ + sinφ₂)

to have a maximum of the sine function, the cosine of fi must be maximum

cos φ₁ + cos φ₂ = 1 +1 = 2

the possible values of each phase are

φ1 = 0, π, 2π

φ2 = 0, π, 2π,

so that the phase difference of being zero or 2π is maximum

The density of nuclear matter is about 1018 kg/m3. Given that 1 mL is equal in volume to 1 cm3, what is the density of nuclear m

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

density is $10^{6}$ Mg/µL

Explanation:

given data

density of nuclear = $10^{18}$ kg/m³

1 ml = 1 cm³

to find out

density of nuclear matter in Mg/µL

solution

we know here

1 Mg = 1000 kg

1 m³ is equal to $10^{6}$ cm³

and here 1 cm³ is equal to 1 mL

so we can say 1 mL is equal to 10³ µL

so by these we can convert density

density = $10^{18}$ kg/m³

density = $10^{18}$ kg/m³ × $\frac{10^{-3} }{10^{6} }$ Mg/µL

density = $10^{6}$ Mg/µL

A) The current theory of the structure of the Earth, called plate tectonics, tells us that the continents are in constant motion

suter [353]

A) The mass of the continent is $2.5\cdot 10^{21} kg$

B) The kinetic energy is 2016 J

C) The speed of the jogger should be 7.1 m/s

Explanation:

The mass of the continent can be calculated as

$m = \rho V$

where

$\rho = 2800 kg/m^3$ is its density

V is its volume

We have to calculate its volume. We know that the continent is represented as a slab of side 5900 km (so its surface is 5900 x 5900, assuming it is a square) and depth of 26 km, so its volume is:

$V=(5900 km)^2 (26 km)=9.05\cdot 10^8 km^3 =9.05 \cdot 10^8 \cdot (10^9 m^3/k^3)=9.05\cdot 10^7 m^3$
