Answer:
<u>For M84:</u>
M = 590.7 * 10³⁶ kg
<u>For M87:</u>
M = 2307.46 * 10³⁶ kg
Explanation:
1 parsec, pc = 3.08 * 10¹⁶ m
The equation of the orbit speed can be used to calculate the doppler velocity:
making m the subject of the formula in the equation above to calculate the mass of the black hole:
.............(1)
<u>For M84:</u>
r = 8 pc = 8 * 3.08 * 10¹⁶
r = 24.64 * 10¹⁶ m
v = 400 km/s = 4 * 10⁵ m/s
G = 6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
Substituting these values into equation (1)
M = 590.7 * 10³⁶ kg
<u>For M87:</u>
r = 20 pc = 20 * 3.08 * 10¹⁶
r = 61.6* 10¹⁶ m
v = 500 km/s = 5 * 10⁵ m/s
G = 6.674 * 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
Substituting these values into equation (1)
M = 2307.46 * 10³⁶ kg
The mass of the black hole in the galaxies is measured using the doppler shift.
The assumption made is that the intrinsic velocity dispersion is needed to match the line widths that are observed.
Answer:
Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures.
Explanation:
Given details:
The mass of the rock on the left, ms = 2.25 kg
The total mass of the rocks, mp = 10.1 kg
The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks, rp = 0.360 m
(a) The torque produced by the pile of rock, T = F*rp = m*g*rp
Torque = 9.8*0.360*10.1 = 35.6328
Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures).
A boy shooting a rubber band across the classroom -->
Elastic potential energy transformed into kinetic energy
<span>The initial energy is the energy stored in the muscles of the boy's arm, which is elastic potential energy. This is converted into motion of the rubber, therefore kinetic energy
A child going down a slide on a playground --> </span>Gravitational potential energy transformed into kinetic energy
On top of the slide, all the energy of the child is gravitational potential energy due to its height with respect to the ground (E=mgh). when it moves down the slide, this is converted into kinetic energy, because the child acquires a speed v (E=1/2 mv^2)

Rubbing your hands together to warm them on a cold day --> </span>Kinetic energy being transformed into thermal energy <span>
When rubbing hands, we are moving them (kinetic energy), and this energy raises the temperature of the hand's surface (thermal energy)
Turning on a battery operated light --> </span>
Chemical potential energy transformed into radiant energy <span>
A battery works by mean of chemical reactions (chemical potential energy), producing light (so, emitting energy by radiation, i.e. radiant energy)
Using a dc electric motor --> </span> Electrical energy transformed into kinetic energy<span>
A dc electric motor works using currents (so, electrical energy), and the energy produced can be used for example to accelerate a car (kinetic energy)
Using a gas power heater to warm a room --> </span>Chemical potential energy transformed into thermal energy
<span>A gas power heater burns gases (so, chemical reaction, i.e. chemical potential energy) to raise the temperature of the room (thermal energy)
Using a hand crank generator to produce electric current --> Kinetic energy transformed into electrical energy
In a hand-crank generator, the handle is being rotated (kinetic energy) in order to produce an electric current (electrical energy)
Using the light in your room that is plugged into the wall --> </span>Electrical energy transformed into radiant energy
<span>The lamp works by using electrical current flowing into a resistor (electrical energy) and it produces light, so it emits energy by electromagnetic radiation (radiant energy)
