The moon Umbriel orbits Uranus (mass = 8.68 x 10^25 kg) at a distance of 2.66 x 10^8 m. What is Umbriel's orbital period (in hou
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

T = 99.51 hour

Explanation:

Mass of Uranus, M=8.68\times 10^{25}\ kg

The moon Umbriel orbits Uranus at a distance of 2.66\times 10^8\ m

We need to find Umbriel's orbital period. Let it is T. Using Kepler's third law of motion to find it.

T^2\propto r^3\\\\T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2r^3}{GM}\\\\T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times (2.66\times 10^8)^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 8.68\times 10^{25}}\\\\T=358244.51\ s

As 1 hour = 3600 s

358244.51 s = 99.51 hour

Hence, Umbriel's orbital period is 99.51 hour.

Which of the following is not true? A) The energy of the sun comes from nuclear fusion. B) The fuel for nuclear fusion comes fr
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Option B) The fuel for nuclear fusion comes from sea water

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion can not be carried out by using any type of water as water is composed of stable water molecules (H_{2}O which is quite difficult to be decayed by any simple method.

Moreover, fusion reactions demands the combination of nuclei of lighter elements for which it makes use of the heavy isotopes of Hydrogen that are Deuterium and Tritium as fuel to carry out the nuclear fusion.

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Curves around objects

Explanation:

Diffraction is a property of light described by bending of light around an object. This ability of light to bend around edges has facilitated optical effects of light where there is interference of light waves. Other properties of light are: reflection, refraction, polarization, scattering of light, and interference of light.

A factory worker pushes a 32.0 kg crate a distance of 7.0 m along a level floor at constant velocity by pushing horizontally on
g100num [7]

Answer:

(a) 81.54 N

(b) 570.75 J

(c) - 570.75 J

(d) 0 J, 0 J

(e) 0 J  

Explanation:

mass of crate, m = 32 kg

distance, s = 7 m

coefficient of friction = 0.26

(a) As it is moving with constant velocity so the force applied is equal to the friction force.

F = 0.26 x m x g = 0.26 x 32 x 9.8 = 81.54 N

(b) The work done on the crate

W = F x s = 81.54 x 7 = 570.75 J

(c) Work done by the friction

W' = - W = - 570.75 J

(d) Work done by the normal force

W'' = m g cos 90 = 0 J

Work done by the gravity

Wg = m g cos 90 = 0 J

(e) The total work done is

Wnet = W + W' + W'' + Wg = 570.75 - 570.75 + 0 = 0 J
