According to the Law of Universal Gravitation, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass, and inversely proportional to the distance. In this problem, let's assume the celestial bodies to be restricted to the planets and the Sun. Since the distance is specified, the other factor would be the mass. Among all the celestial bodies, the Sun is the most massive. So, the Sun would cause the strongest gravitational pull to the satellite.
If you measured all the energy related to motion and all the stored
energy in the particles of a substance, you would be measuring the thermal energy of the particles. If
there is movement of the particles, they are also releasing energy in the form
of heat.
Answer:
Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Rain = 1.7 in
Time = 30 min
Area = 29 km²
Find:
Volume in acre-feet
Computation:
1 km = 1,000 m
1 m = 3.28 feet
1 km² = 247.105 acre
d = 1.7 in = 1.7 / 12 = 0.14167 ft
Area = 29 × 247.105 = 7,166.045 acre
Volume = 7,166.045 acre × 0.14167 ft
Volume = 1,015 acre-feet (Approx)
