Explanation:

Mass is the quantity of matter contained in a body. The mass of an object is measured in kilogram (kg). The mass of an object is measured by a beam balance.

Part a can be solve using the equation of trajectory:

Y = x tana + (g*x^2)/ [2(V0^2)*(cos a)^2]

Where y is the height

X is the length

G is the acceleration due to gravity

Vo Is the initail velocity

a is the angle of trajectory

1.2 = 1.35  tan(0) + (9.81*1.35^2)/ [2(V0^2)*(cos 0)^2]

Solve for V0 = 2.729 m/s

b. can be solve using the formula

v = sqrt(2gy)

= sqrt ( 2*1.2*9.81)

= 4.852 m/s  going down ( 0 degree from the horizontal)

Astronomers have recently observed stars orbiting at very high speeds around an unknown object near the center of our galaxy. Fo
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

<em>The mass of the object is 745000 units of the sun</em>

Explanation:

We know that the centripetal force with which the stars orbit the object is represented as

F_{c} = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

and this centripetal force is also proportional to

F_{c} = \frac{kMm}{r^{2} }

where

m is the mass of the stars

M is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the stars = 10^6 m/s

r is the distance between the stars and the object = 10^14 m

k is the gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2

We can equate the two centripetal force equations to give

\frac{mv^{2} }{r} = \frac{kMm}{r^{2} }

which reduces to

v^{2} = \frac{kM}{r}

and then finally

M = \frac{rv^{2} }{k}

substituting values, we have

M = \frac{10^{14}*(10^{6})^{2}  }{6.67*10^{-11} } = 1.49 x 10^36 kg

If the mass of the sun is 2 x 10^30 kg

then, the mass of the the object in units of the mass of the sun is

==> (1.49 x 10^36)/(2 x 10^30) = <em>745000 units of sun</em>

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - the sound waves make vibration that travels through the string.

Explanation:

When an individual person talks into your paper cup telephone the person on the other end can feel the bottom of their cup vibrate. The sound waves create vibration go through the string that travels through the string to the end of the cup where vibrations can feel.

The sound waves are longitudinal waves that move or travel through different mediums like air, solid, or gas. The waves create vibration in the particles.

You could create a paper cup telephone but instead of using string, test out different materials and see if those materials will allow sound vibrations to travel through them

A camera lens focuses on an object 75.0 cm from the lensThe image forms 3.50 cm behind the lens. What is the magnification of th
N76 [4]

Answer:

7/150

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Object distance (u) = 75cm

Image distance (v) = 3.5cm

Magnification (M) =..?

Magnification is simply defined as:

Magnification (M) = Image distance (v)/ object distance (u)

M = v /u

With the above formula, we can obtain the magnification of the image as follow:

M = v/u

M = 3.5/75

M = 7/150

Therefore, the magnification of the image is 7/150.
