Answer:

3.6*10^18s

Explanation:

To find the period of the satellite

We need to apply kephler's third law

Which is

MP² = (4π²/G) d³

d=semi-major axis which is the distance from center of moon = 98km+1740km = 1838km

where M= mass of the moon = 7.3x10^22kg

P=period

G=newtonian gravatational constant= 6.67x10^-11

To find the Period solve for P

P = √[(4π²/G M)xd³]

P=√(4 π²/6.67x10^-22*7.3x10^22kg) x (1.838x10^6m)³]

= 3.6*10^18s

A 6.0-kg box slides down an inclined plane that makes an angle of 39° with the horizontal. If the coefficient of kinetic frictio
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a. 3.1 m/s^2

Explanation:

The equation of the forces along the directions parallel and perpendicular to the slope are:

- Along the parallel direction:

mg sin \theta - \mu_k R = ma

where :

m = 6.0 kg is the mass  of the box

g = 9.8 m/s^2 the acceleration of gravity

\theta=39^{\circ}  is the angle of the slope

\mu_k = 0.40 is the coefficient of friction

R is the normal reaction  

a is the acceleration

- Along the perpendicular direction:

R-mg cos \theta =0

From the 2nd equation, we get an expression for the reaction force:

R=mg cos \theta

And substituting into the 1st equation, we can find the acceleration:

mg sin \theta - \mu_k mg cos \theta = ma

Solving for a,

a=g sin \theta - \mu_k g cos \theta =(9.8)(sin 39^{\circ})-(0.40)(9.8)(cos 39^{\circ})=3.1 m/s^2

For the following types of electromagnetic radiation, how do the wavelength, frequency, and photon energy change as one goes fro
KIM [24]

Answer:

Wavelength, frequency and the photon energy changes as the one goes across the ranges of the electro-magnetic radiations.

Explanation:

Electro-magnetic radiations may be defined as the form of energy that is radiated or given by the electro-magnetic radiations. The visible light that we can see is the one of the electro-magnetic radiations. Other forms are the radio waves, gamma waves, UV rays, infrared radiations, etc.

The wavelength of the radiations decreases as we go from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

The frequency of the radiations increases when we move from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

The photon energy of the radiations increases when we move from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.
