Answer:

Decreases the time period of revolution

Explanation:

The time period of Cygnus X-1 orbiting a massive star is 5.6 days.

The orbital velocity of a planet is given by the formula,

                                        v = √[GM/(R + h)]

In the case of rotational motion, v = (R +h)ω

                                         ω = √[GM/(R + h)] /(R +h)

Where 'ω' is the angular velocity of the planet

The time period of rotational motion is,

                                     T = 2π/ω

By substitution,

                                      <em>T = 2π(R +h)√[(R + h)/GM] </em>

Hence, from the above equation, if the mass of the star is greater, the gravitational force between them is greater. This would reduce the time period of revolution of the planet.

What is drag? In what situations might it act on the force of gravity?
stepan [7]
Drag is passive, therefore it does not act on gravity. Drag is a mechanical resistance to motion. If the motion in question was induced by gravity drag it can impede that motion, but has no effect on the gravity. 

hope this helps!

Elena L [17]

Answer:

the Earth-Sun distance.

Explanation:

To measure parallax the base line distance that we need to know is the Earth-Sun distance. This distance is called 1 astronomical unit. This distance is 1.496×10^8 Km. So, this base line distance is necessary for the second link parallax.

Neutrons

Explanation:

Atoms of the same elements are called isotopes. They differ from other atoms in the number of neutrons they posses. They share the same chemical properties but only differ with regards to their mass number.

  • Isotopy is a phenomenon whereby an atom of an element exist in more than one form but they have the same atomic number.
  • Atoms of such element only differ in the number of neutrons they contain.
  • Since the mass number of an atom is the sum of protons and neutrons, they differ in this number too
  • Isotopes have the same chemical properties.

A train takes ms eaddy 200 miles north and 150 miles south. The total trip took 3.5 hours what was the average velocity of the t
Verizon [17]
The whole point of this problem is to check how well you understand
the definitions of a few important quantities, like velocity, speed, distance,
displacement etc.

Before we begin, I just want to mention that 'MPG' is not a unit of either
velocity or speed, but I think I know what you mean.

-- For some reason, Ms. Eaddy rode 100 miles north on the train, then
stayed aboard while the train turned around and took her 150 miles south.
The total distance she rode was (100 + 150) = 250 miles.  But she ended up
50 miles south of where she began.

-- Displacement for the whole trip = distance and direction from the start point
to the finish point.

Displacement = 50 miles south

-- Average velocity = (displacement) / (time)

50 miles south / 3.5 hours = <u>14.29 miles per hour south</u>
