A Tire has a radius of 0.34 m. If it is driven of 2.7 km, What is the total angle that it has rotated ?
A typical tire for a compact car is 22 inches in diameter. If the car is traveling at 60miles per hour, find the number of revolutions the tire makes per minute.
Kepler's third law states that for any object in a gravitational orbit,
P2∝a3P2∝a3
where PP is the orbital period of the object and aa is the average distance between the object and what it is orbiting.
In our Solar System, the natural units are distances measured in astronomical units (A.U.) and orbital periods measured in years. This can be seen for the Earth-Sun system which has an orbital period P=1P=1 year and an average distance a=1a=1 AU. Using these natural units in the Solar System, the proportionality becomes an equality, so for our Solar System:
(Pyears)2=(aA.U.)3(Pyears)2=(aA.U.)3 .
Using your mathematical prowess, determine what the orbital period in years would be for an asteroid that was discovered orbiting the Sun with an average distance of 25 astronomical units.
