Kepler's third law hypothesizes that for all the small bodies in orbit around the same central body, the ratio of (orbital period squared) / (orbital radius cubed) is the same number. 

Moon #1:  (1.262 days)² / (2.346 x 10^4 km)³

Moon #2:  (orbital period)² / (9.378 x 10^3 km)³

Equating the ratio:
(1.262 days)² / (2.346 x 10^4 km)³  = (orbital period)² / (9.378 x 10^3 km)³

Cross-multiply:
(orbital period)² x (2.346 x 10^4)³ = (1.262 days)² x (9.378 x 10^3)³

Divide each side by (2.346 x 10^4)³:

(Orbital period)² = [ (1.262 days)² x (9.378 x 10^3)³ ] / (2.346 x 10^4)³

               =  0.1017 day²

Orbital period = 0.319 Earth day = about 7.6 hours.

Mr.B's laser needs a voltage of 10 volts to push a current of 5 amps through it's laser diode. What is the resistance of the las
docker41 [41]

The resistance of the laser whose voltage difference pushes the current through its laser diode is 2 ohms.

<h3>What is resistance?</h3>

The resistance is the opposition offered to the current flow.

According to the ohm's law, potential difference is directly proportional to the current flowing in the conductor.

V =I x R

Where R is the constant of proportionality called resistance.

Given is the potential difference V =10 Volts and the current flow of 5A, then the resistance will be

R = 10/5 = 2 ohms.

Thus, the resistance of the laser is 2 ohms.

Why can’t the high-quality energy released from a lump of burning coal be recycled?
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

when energy changes from one form to another, it always goes from a more useful to a less useful form. This means that people can't recycle or reuse high quality energy to perform useful work.
