Answer:

3.60432\times 10^{26}\ kg

Explanation:

a = Orbital radius = 1.62\times 10^8\ m

T = Orbital period = 23.21 hours

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

From Kepler's third law we get

M=\frac{4\pi^2a^3}{GT^2}\\\Rightarrow M=\frac{4\pi^2\times (1.62\times 10^8)^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times (23.21\times 3600)^2}\\\Rightarrow M=3.60432\times 10^{26}\ kg

From the given data the mass of Saturn is 3.60432\times 10^{26}\ kg

That 1.5 kg brick falls to the ground. What is the kinetic energy when the brick is moving at 26 m/s? Formula: Variables: Work w
Tresset [83]

Answer:

<h2>507 J</h2>

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object can be found by using the formula

k =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  \\

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question we have

k =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 1.5 \times  {26}^{2}  \\  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 1.5 \times 676 \\  = 1.5 \times 338  \\ = 507

We have the final answer as

<h3>507 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

A well-thrown ball is caught in a well-padded mitt. If the deceleration of the ball is 2.10×104 m/s2 , and 1.85 ms (1 ms = 10−3
ankoles [38]

Answer:

u = - 38.85 m/s^-1

Explanation:

given data:

acceleration = 2.10*10^4 m/s^2

time = 1.85*10^{-3} s

final velocity = 0 m/s

from equation of motion we have following relation

v = u +at

0 =  u + 2.10*10^4 *1.85*10^{-3}

0 = u + (21 *1.85)

0 = u + 38.85

u = - 38.85 m/s^-1

negative sign indicate that the ball bounce in opposite directon

What is the anomalous expansivity of water
salantis [7]

Answer:

The anomalous expansion of water is an abnormal property of water whereby it expands instead of contracting when the temperature goes from 4°C to 0°C, and it becomes less dense. The density becomes less and less as it freezes because molecules of water normally form open crystal structures when in solid form.

A gardener mows a lawn with an old-fashioned push mower. The handle of the mower makes an angle of 320 with the surface of the l
Virty [35]

Answer:

N = 337.96 N

Explanation:

∅ = 32º

F = 249 N

m = 21 Kg

N = ?

We can apply:

∑ F = 0  (↑)

- Fy - W + N = 0   ⇒    N = Fy + W

⇒  F*Sin ∅ + m*g = N

⇒  N = (249 N*Sin32º) + (21 Kg*9.81 m/s²)

⇒  N = 337.96 N  (↑)
