The mass of the earth is 5.97x10 24 kilograms. the mass of the moon is 7.34 x 10 22 kilograms

1 answer:

3 0

7.34x10^22 kg can also be written as 0.0734 * 10^24 kg

Since both numbers are * 10^24, you can just add 5.97 + 0.0734 = 6.043. Then you have to add the * 10^24 giving you 6.043 * 10^24 kg

The ratio of Earth / moon is 5.97x10^24 / 7.34x10^22 = 81. The mass of the Earth is 81 times the mass of the moon.

The formula used to calculate the value of a savings accounty =(1+)120What does theafter t years is A(t)=0.04= 1500 1+120.04frac

yulyashka [42]

We have here the formula for Compound Interest:

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

Where:

• A is the accrued amount.

• P is the Principal (the original amount of money, the starting amount of money).

• r is the interest rate.

• n is the number of times per year compounded.

• t is the time in years.

When we have that n is equal to 12, we are talking here about that the amount of money is being compounded monthly (we have 12 months in a year, 12 periods, n = 12). Therefore, we are dividing the rate, r, by the number of compoundings per year, n, and this is the rate per each new compounding period of time, r/n, and, in this case, n = 12 (monthly interest rate).

Therefore, in few words, the fraction (0.04/12) is the monthly interest rate (option C).

[If we see the other options, we have:

• The daily interest rate would be given by 0.04/365.

• How long the money has been in the account is time, t.

• The starting balance in the account is the Principal, P. ]
