Answer:

0.21 lunar month

Explanation:

the radius of moon = r₁

time period of the moon = T₁ = 1 lunar month

The radius of the satellite = 0.35 r₁

Time period of satellite

The relation between time period and radius

              T\ \alpha\ \sqrt{r^3}

now,

              \dfrac{T_2}{T_1}=\dfrac{\sqrt{r_2^3}}{\sqrt{r_1^3}}

              \dfrac{T_2}{T_1}=\dfrac{\sqrt{0.35^3r_1^3}}{\sqrt{r_1^3}}

              \dfrac{T_2}{1}=\sqrt{0.35^3}

                              T₂ = 0.21 lunar month

hence, the time period of revolution of satellite is equal to 0.21 lunar month

A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 0. 158 kg. If 2,510. 0 J of heat is required to heat the substance from 32. 0°C
guapka [62]

The specific heat of the unknown substance with a mass of 0.158kg is 0.5478 J/g°C

HOW TO CALCULATE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY:

The specific heat capacity of a substance can be calculated using the following formula:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

  • Q = quantity of heat absorbed (J)
  • c = specific heat capacity (4.18 J/g°C)
  • m = mass of substance
  • ∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to this question, 2,510.0 J of heat is required to heat the 0.158kg substance from 32.0°C to 61.0°C. The specific heat capacity can be calculated:

2510 = 158 × c × (61°C - 32°C)

2510 = 4582c

c = 2510 ÷ 4582

c = 0.5478 J/g°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the unknown substance that has a mass of 0.158 kg is 0.5478 J/g°C.

32. Which type of electromagnetic wave is used for nuclear power and medical treatment?
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Answers at the bottom!!

Explanation:

For the first answer: Gamma ray

Gamma rays and x-rays consist of high-energy waves that can travel great distances at the speed of light and generally have a great ability to penetrate other materials. For that reason, gamma rays (such as from cobalt-60) are often used in medical applications to treat cancer and sterilize medical instruments.

For the second answer: They both have technological uses.

In my opinion I'm pretty sure it's A because we do use microwaves and x-rays as technological uses.

Hope this helps!!

An electron moves in a circular path perpendicular to a constant magnetic field with a magnitude of 2.50 mT. The angular momentu
liberstina [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The angular momentum of electron mvR = 6 x 10⁻²⁵  Js

Magnetic field B = 2.5 x 10⁻³ T

radius of circular path R = mv / Bq

where m is mass , v is velocity and q is charge on electron

R² = mvR / Bq

R² = 6 x 10⁻²⁵ / 2.5 x 10⁻³ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 1.5 x 10⁻³

R = 3.87 x 10⁻² m

mvR = 6 x 10⁻²⁵

v = 6 x 10⁻²⁵  / mR

= 6 x 10⁻²⁵  / 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x 3.87 x 10⁻²

= .17 x 10⁸

= 17 x 10⁶ m/s
