The observation point on Earth and the two stars form a triangle. The two sides of the triangle are 23.3 ly and 34.76 ly and their included angle is 76.04°. We can use the cos rule to find the third side, which is the distance between the two stars.
c² = a² + b² - 2abCos(C)
c² = (23.3)² + (34.76)² - 2(23.3)(34.76)Cos(76.04)
c = 36.88 light years.

A racecar is equipped with a computer that records the reading on its speedometer every second during a race. If you graph this
Tanya [424]
Because it records speed of the car at a certain time, the independent variable should be time and dependent would be speed or velocity. Since it's taken every second, it would be considered instantaneous velocity, which is D.

If the pendulum is brought on the moon where the gravitational acceleration is about g/6, approximately what will its period now
Andru [333]

Answer:

The new period will be √6 *T

Explanation:

period ,T=2π√(L/g)       ................equation 1

where T is the period on earth

gravitational acceleration on the moon is g/6

T1 = 2π√[L/(g/6)]

T1=2π√(6L/g)               ...............equation 2

divide equation 2 by 1

T1/T =2π√(6L/g)÷2π√(L/g)

T1/T =√(6L/L)

T1/T =√6

T1 = √6 *T

) By observing that the centripetal acceleration of the Moon around the Earth is ac = 2.7 × 10-3 m/s2, what is the gravitatonal
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

G = 6,786 10⁻¹¹ m³ / s² kg

Explanation:

The law of universal gravitation is

         F = G m M/ r²

Where G is the gravitational constant, m and M are the masses of the bodies and r is the distance from their centers

Let's use Newton's second law

         F = m a

The acceleration is centripetal

          a = a_{c}  

We replace

         G m M / r² = m  a_{c}  

         G =  a_{c}   r² / M

Let's replace and calculate

         G = 2.7 10⁻³ (3.88 10⁸)² / 5.99 10²⁴

         G = 6,786 10⁻¹¹ m³ / s² kg

Let's perform a dimensional analysis

[N m²/kg²] = [kg m/s²   m² / kg²] = [m³ / s² kg]
