Answer: Watershed

A watershed or drainage basin is a down the slope land where the water is drained off from sources of water flowing comparatively at some elevation. It includes water from rivers, river streams that progressively drain into larger areas. The initial source of watershed is called as headwater. The endpoint of watershed is open up into another water body is called as mouth.

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:35.2 ft

Explanation:

Given

height of stick =4 ft

shadow length =2.8 ft

Angle of elevation of sun is

$tan\theta =\frac{4}{2.8}$

let the height of tree be h

as $\theta$ will remain same thus

$tan\theta =\frac{h}{24.64}$

$\frac{4}{2.8}=\frac{h}{24.64}$

h=35.2 ft

A satellite of Mars, called Phobos, has an orbital radius of 9.4 ✕ 106 m and a period of 2.8 ✕ 104 s. Assuming the orbit is circ

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

$6.27*10^{23}kg$

Explanation:

assume

M= mass of Mars

m=mass of phobos

r=orbital radius

T=period

we can apply F=ma to this orbital motion (considering the cricular motion laws)

where,

$F=\frac{GMm}{r^{2} }$ and a=rω^2

where ω= $\frac{2\pi }{T}$ and G is the universal gravitational constant.

G = 6.67 x 10-11 N m2 / kg2

$F=ma\\\frac{GMm}{r^{2} }=mr(\frac{2\pi }{T} )^{2}\\ M=\frac{r^{3}}{G} (\frac{2\pi }{T} )^{2}\\M=\frac{(9.4*10x^{6} )^{3}*(2\pi )^{2} }{(2.8*10^{4}) ^{2} *6.67*10^{-11} } \\M=6.27*10^{23}kg$
