Applying Newtons version of Kepler's third law or the orbital velocity law to the star orbiting 40000 light years from the center of the Milky Way Galaxy allows us to determine the mass of the Milky Way Galaxy that lies within 40000 light years in the galactic center.

<h3></h3><h3>What is orbital velocity law?</h3>

The orbital velocity law states that, the orbital velocity is directly proportional to the mass of the body for which it is being calculated and inversely proportional to the radius of the body. Earths orbital velocity near its surface is around 8km/sec if the air resistance is disregarded.

In space exploration, orbital velocity is a crucial topic. Space authorities heavily rely on it to comprehend how to launch satellites. It aids scientists in figuring out the velocities at which satellites must orbit a planet or other celestial body to prevent collapsing into it. The speed at which one body orbits the other body is known as the orbital velocity. The term "orbit" refers to an object's consistent circular motion around the Earth. The distance between the object and the earth's centre determines the orbit's velocity.

A seesaw made of a plank of mass 10.0 kg and length 3.00 m is balanced on a fulcrum 1.00 m from one end of the plank. A 20.0-kg
lidiya [134]

Answer:

7.5 kg

Explanation:

We are given that

m_1=10 kg

Length of plank, l=3 m

Distance of fulcrum from one end of the plank=1 m

m_2=20 kg

We have to find the mass must be on the other end if the plank remains balanced.

Let m be the mass must be on the other end if the plank remains balanced.

In balance condition

20\times 1=10\times (1.5-1)+m\times (1.5+0.5)

20=10(0.5)+2m

20=5+2m

2m=20-5=15

\implies m=\frac{15}{2}

m=7.5 kg

Hence, mass 7.5 kg   must be on the other end if the plank remains balanced.

Hello! Please I need help on 1. (C) I dont know the formula to get the Total height using Mechanical Energy
inna [77]

Answer:

4.00m

Explanation:

at that instant where it is dropped all the mechanical energy is gpe which is 71.9

and the formula for gpe = mass (1.80) * height * gravitational field strength (i'm using 10 m/s2)

height of football stadium

= 71.9/[(1.80)(10)]

= 71.9/18.0

= 3.99444..

= 4.00 (3 sf)

A pilot heads his jet due east. The jet has a speed of 475 mi/h relative to the air. The wind is blowing due north with a speed
oksian1 [2.3K]

Explanation:

a. The velocity of the wind as a vector in component form will be represented as v vector:

    v=30j

b.The velocity of the jet relative to the air as a vector in component form will be represented as u vector

    u=475i

c. The true velocity of the jet as a vector will be represented as w:

  w=u+v

  w=475i+30j

d.  The true speed of the jet will be calculated as:

    IwI=\sqrt{(475)^2+(30)^2}

    IwI=\sqrt{225625+900}

    IwI=\sqrt{226525}

    IwI=476 mi/h

e. The direction of the jet will be:

tita=tan^{-1}\frac{30}{475}

tita=tan^{-1}(0.0632)

tita=3.62degrees,or,N86.38degreesS

A phosphorus atom needs to gain ---electrons to achieve a full octet
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Three (3).

Explanation:

The octet rule is a rule in chemistry that states that, chemical elements would either gain or loss electrons in their outermost shell in order to attain a stable electronic configuration i.e having eight (8) valence electrons in their outermost shell such as chemical elements found in group 8 (2-8-8) known as noble gas.

A phosphorus atom needs to gain three (3) electrons to achieve a full octet because the atomic number of phosphorus is 15 and as such it has the electronic configuration of 2-8-5 and needs three electron in order to become a stable element.

Are fat fish more likely to have broad stripes than thin fish?
maw [93]

yes, just like human skin. The bigger you grown the more your skin stretches, I a fish is bigger their skin will stretch leading to broad stripes.
