Halley's comet has an elliptical orbit with an eccentricity of e≈0.967.e≈0.967. the length of the major axis of the orbit is approximately 35.88 astronomical units. find a polar equation for the orbit and use that to determine how close halley's comet comes to the sun (rounded to the nearest billion

In a simplified model of the human eye, the aqueous and vitreous humors and the lens all have a refractive index of 1.40, and all the refraction occurs at the cornea, whose vertex is 2.60 cm from the retina. what should be the radius of curvature of the cornea such that the image of an object 40.0 cm from the cornea’s vertex is focused on the retina?

A2.0 μf capacitor and a 4.0 μf capacitor are connected in series across a 0.827-kv potential. the charged capacitors are then disconnected from the source and connected to each other with terminals of like sign together. find the voltage across each capacitor.

Awater balloon launcher uses an elastic band with a spring constant of 115 n/m to use thee launcher you stretch thee band back with a balloon n it the water balloons have a mass of 1.3 kg a) if you stretch the band by 0.8 m, what elastic force will the band exert? b) with the band stretched 0.8 m, how much elastic potential energy is stored in the spring? c) if you release the band, it pushes forward. what is the kinetic energy of the balloon when it reaches the natural length of the band? d) what is the speed of the balloon when it reaches the natural length of the band?
