Kepler’s
third law formula: T^2=4pi^2*r^3/(GM)

We’re trying to find M, so:

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

M=4pi^2*(1.496
× 10^11 m)^3/((6.674× 10^-11N*m^2/kg^2)*(365.26days)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))

Let’s work
with the units:

(m^3)/((N*m^2/kg^2)*days^2))=

=(m^3*kg^2)/(N*m^2*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/(N*days^2)

=(m*kg^2)/((kg*m/s^2)*days^2)

=(kg)/(days^2/s^2)

=(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

So:

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/(days^2)

Now we need to convert days to seconds in order to cancel
them:

1 day=24 hours=24*60minutes=24*60*60s=86400s

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/((86400s)^2)

M=1.48× 10^40(kg*s^2)/(
86400^2*s^2)

M=1.48× 10^40kg/86400^2

M=1.98x10^30kg

The
closest answer is 1.99
× 10^30

(it may vary
a little with rounding – the difference is less than 1%)

If the given wave has a frequency of 100 Hz, what frequency will the sixth harmonic have?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

600Hz

Explanation:

In electrical systems of alternating current, the harmonics are, as in acoustics, frequencies multiples of the fundamental working frequency of the system and whose amplitude decreases as the multiple increases. For example, if we have systems fed by the 50 Hz network, harmonics of 100, 150, 200, etc. may appear.

In our case having a fundamental wave of 100Hz, I can have harmonics of 200,300,400, ..., 600Hz

When you changed from low to high power, how did the change affect the working distance of the lens?
Basile [38]

The working distance gets shorter as the magnification gets bigger. In order to focus, the high-power objective lens must be significantly nearer to the specimen than the low-power lens. Magnification is negatively correlated with working distance.

Magnification change The magnification of a specimen is increased by switching from low power to high power. The magnification of an image is determined by multiplying the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the ocular lens, or eyepiece.

The geometry of the optical system connects the magnifying power, or how much the thing being observed seems expanded, and the field of view, or the size of the object that can be seen.

Answer: liquid

explanation: 1 liter is a measurement of liquids, not solids, or gases.
Liquids also have a set volume, but can flow to take the shape of the bottom of their container.

Write one example of a physical change and one example chemical change
mojhsa [17]
Physical change = changes the physical properties (more commonly known as it's look)
Chemical change = changes the chemical properties into an entire new chemical form
Examples of physical change would be melting ice cubes or sugar cubes.
Examples of chemical change would be cooking eggs or burning paper because you're changing its chemical properties.
