I think that the correct reporting of the given values are 10⁴² kg for the Milky Way and 10⁵³ kg for the whole universe. That would be logical in that case. Since it is mentioned that each galaxy has the same mass as the Milky Way, then the number of galaxies in the universe are:

Number of galaxies = 10⁵³ kg/10²⁴ kg = 10¹¹ or 100 trillion galaxies

A coin and feather are dropped in a moon. what will fall earlier on ground.give reasons.if they are dropped in the earth,which o
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

  • on the moon, they will fall at the time
  • on earth, the coin will fall faster to the ground

Explanation:

A coin and feather dropped in a moon experience the same acceleration due to gravity as small as 1.625 m/s², and because of the absence of air resistance both will fall at the same rate to the ground.

If the same coin and feather are dropped in the earth, they will experience the same acceleration due to gravity of 9.81 m/s² and because of the presence of air resistance, the heavier object (coin) will be pulled faster to the ground by gravity than the lighter object (feather).

An asteroid orbiting the Sun has a mass of 4.00×1016 kg. At a particular instant, it experiences a gravitational force of 3.14×1
Ksivusya [100]
<h2>The asteroid is 4.11 x 10¹¹ m far from Sun</h2>

Explanation:

We have gravitational force

                 F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

           Where G =  6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²

                       M = Mass of body 1

                       M = Mass of body 2

                       r = Distance between them

Here we have

                 M = Mass of Sun = 1.99×10³⁰ kg

                 m = Mass of asteroid = 4.00×10¹⁶ kg

                 F = 3.14×10¹³ N

Substituting

                   F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}\\\\3.14\times 10^{13}=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.99\times 10^{30}\times 4\times 10^{16}}{r^2}\\\\r=4.11\times 10^{11}m

The asteroid is 4.11 x 10¹¹ m far from Sun

What's the Coulomb's law?
Ulleksa [173]

<span>
In layman's term: </span>like charges don't attract while opposite charges do<span>electrostatic forces between point A( which is charged) and point B (which is also charged) are proportional to the charge of point A and point B. </span><span>there is also something else about this  law that I don't quite remember.</span>

<span>___________________________________________________</span>

<span />Here is the formula:

<span>F = k x Q1 x Q2/d^<span>2</span></span>

<span>What the formula means:</span>

F=force between charges

Q1 and Q2= amount of charge

d=distance between these two charges

k= Coulombs constant (proportionally constant)

________________________________________________

I think that about covers it and hopefully this helped.

Three sticks are arranged to form a right triangle. If the lengths of the three sticks are 0.47 m, 0.62 m and 0.78 m, what are t
Svetradugi [14.3K]

The angles in the triangle are 91 degrees, 53 degrees and 36 degrees respectively.

<h3>What is the cosine rule?</h3>

From the cosine rule we know that;

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2abcosC

Since;

a = 0.47 m

b =  0.62 m

c =  0.78 m

Then;

(0.78)^2 = (0.47)^2 + (0.62)^2 - 2(0.47 * 0.62)cosC

0.61 = 0.22 + 0.38 - 0.58 cosC

0.61 - ( 0.22 + 0.38) = - 0.58 cosC

0.01 = - 0.58 cosC

C = cos-1(0.01/-0.58)

C = 91 degrees

Using the sine rule;

b/Sin B = c/Sin C

0.62/sinB = 0.78/sin 91

0.62/Sin B = 0.78

B = sin-1 (0.62//0.78)

B = 53 degrees

Angle A is obtained from the sum of angles in a triangle;

180 - (91 + 53)

A = 36 degrees
