Answer:

m v^2 / R = G M m / R^2       gravitational attraction = centripetal force

M = v^2 R / G       solving for M

period = 6 h 25 min = (6 * 3600 + 25 * 60) sec = 23,100 sec = T

v = 2 pi R / T

M = 4 pi^2 R^3 / (G T^2)

M = 39.5 * (8.6E7)^3 / (6.67E-11 * 2.31E4^2)

M = 39.5 * 636 / (6.67 * 5.34) * 10^24

M = 7.05 * 10^26 kg

jeyben [28]

Answer:

the car would arrive after 10 hr to Austin.

Explanation:

bus average from amarllo to austin = 60 miles per hour

time takne by bus to reach austin = 8 hr

automobile average from amarllo to austin = 60 miles per hour

from the information given in the question:

60 mph ---    8 h

48 mph ---  x h

By using The inverse variation:

60 : 48 = x : 8

60* 8 = 48* x

480 = 48*x

x = 480/48

x = 10 h

the car would arrive after 10 hr to Austin.
