The Earth spins on its axis and also orbits around the Sun.
For this problem use the following constants.
Mass of the Earth: 5.97 × 10^24 kg (assume a uniform mass distribution)
Radius of the Earth: 6371 km
Distance of Earth from Sun: 149,600,000 km

What is the rotational kinetic energy of the Earth due to its orbit around the Sun, in joules?

Na food processing facility, a spherical container of inner radius r1 5 40 cm, outer radius r2 5 41 cm, and ther- mal conductivity k 5 1.5 w/m · k is used to store hot water and to keep it at 100°c at all times. to accomplish this, the outer surface of the container is wrapped with a 800-w electric strip heater and then insulated. the temperature of the inner surface of the container is observed to be nearly 120°c at all times. as- suming 10 percent of the heat generated in the heater is lost through the insulation, (a) express the differential equation and the boundary conditions for steady one-dimensional heat conduction through the container, (b) obtain a relation for the variation of temperature in the container material by solving the differential equation, and (c) evaluate the outer surface tempera- ture of the container. also determine how much water at 100°c this tank can supply steadily if the cold water enters at 20°c.

While standing outdoors one evening, you are exposed to the following four types of electromagnetic radiation: yellow light from a sodium street lamp, radio waves from an am radio station, radio waves from an fm radio station, and microwaves from an antenna of a communications system. rank these type of waves in terms of increasing photon energy.

Two pans of a balance are 24.1 cm apart. the fulcrum of the balance has been shifted 1.33 cm away from the center by a dishonest shopkeeper. by what percentage is the true weight of the goods being marked up by the shopkeeper? assume the balance has negligible mass. answer in units of %.
