A distant planet with a mass of (7.2000x10^26) has a moon with a mass of (5.0000x10^23). The distance between the planet and the

moon is (6.10x10^11). What is the gravitational force between the two objects?

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a simple gravitational force problem using the equation:

F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} where F is the gravitational force, G is the universal gravitational constant, the m's are the masses of the2 objects, and r is the distance between the centers of the masses. I am going to state G to 3 sig fig's so that is the number of sig fig's we will have in our answer. If we are solving for the gravitational force, we can fill in everything else where it goes. Keep in mind that I am NOT rounding until the very end, even when I show some simplification before the final answer.

Filling in:

F_g=\frac{(6.67*19^{-11})(7.2000*10^{26})(5.0000*10^{23})}{(6.10*10^{11})^2} I'm going to do the math on the top and then on the bottom and divide at the end.

F_g=\frac{2.4012*10^{40}}{3.721*10^{23}} and now when I divide I will express my answer to the correct number of sig dig's:

Fg= 6.45 × 10¹⁶ N

As your hand moves back and forth to generate longitudinal pulses in a spiral spring, your hand completes 3.19 back-and-forth cy
lesantik [10]

Explanation:

Since, it is given that one hand completes 3.19 vibrations in 8.46 sec. Therefore, in one second the number of vibrations will be as follows.

              \frac{3.19}{8.46}

                = 0.377 vibrations

Hence,  frequency (f) = 0.38 Hz

Now, formula to calculate the speed is as follows.

               v = f \times \lambda

or,        \lambda = \frac{v}{f}                  

                = \frac{0.6 cm/s}{0.38}

                = 1.57 cm

Thus, we can conclude that the wavelength is 1.57 cm.

The Hubble Space Telescope is stabilized to within an angle of about 2-millionths of a degree by means of a series of gyroscopes
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The answer to the question is;

The required torque that it would take to cause the gyroscopes to precess through an angle of 1.0×10−6 degree during a 5.0-hour exposure of a galaxy is 2.44 ×10⁻¹² N·m  

Explanation:

To solve the question we first resolve the units of the given quantities as follows

The gyroscopes spin at 19,200 rpm that is 19,200 revolutions per minute

1 revolution = 2π rad and

1 minute = 60 seconds

Therefore 19,200 revolutions per minute = 2π×19,200÷60 rad/s

= 2010.619 rad/s

The angle of precess is given as 1.0×10⁻⁶ °. We convert the angle to radians as follows

360 ° = 2π radians

1 ° = \frac{\pi }{180} radians and

1.0×10⁻⁶ ° =  \frac{\pi }{180} radians × 1.0×10⁻⁶ ° = 1.745×10⁻⁸ rad

To find the torque we note that the torque is given by

Precession angular speed × The moment of inertia × angular velocity

The precession angular speed is given by \frac{Precession. Angle}{time}

The precession angle was determined in rad as 1.745×10⁻⁸ rad

The precession time is 5 hours which is equal to 5×60×60 = 18000 s

Therefore the precession velocity = \frac{1.745*10^{-8} rad}{18000 s} =  9.696×10⁻¹³ rad/s

The moment of inertia is given by

Formula for the moment of inertia of a thin walled cylinder I = m·r²

Where:

r = Radius of the gyroscope = Diameter/2 = 5.0 cm/2 = 2.5 cm = ‪0.025‬ m

m = Mass of each gyroscopes = 2.0 kg

Therefore I = m·r² = 2.0 kg × (0.025‬ m)² = 0.00125 kg·m²

Torque, τ = Ω·I·ω

Where:

Ω = Precession velocity = 9.696×10⁻¹³ rad/s

I = Moment of inertia = 0.00125 kg·m²

ω = Angular speed = 2010.619 rad/s

τ = 9.696×10⁻¹³ rad/s × 0.00125 kg·m² × 2010.619 rad/s =

2.44 ×10⁻¹² kg·m²/ s² =   2.44 ×10⁻¹² N·m  

The required torque is 2.44 ×10⁻¹² N·m.

if quasars often resemble little blue stars, what was it about them that so surprised astronomers when they were dis­covered?
Anna11 [10]

Quasar is famous for being an intergalactic object which is billions of years away from the earth yet can still be seen, unlike the other star body, unlike giant galaxies.

Hence, the fact that quasars can be detected from distances where even the biggest and most luminous galaxies cannot be seen means that "they must be intrinsically far more luminous than the brightest galaxies."

This condition, including other related evidence gotten in recent years concerning our galaxy, has shown that quasars are probably the central nuclei of very distant, very active galaxies.

The surprising thing was that quasars and active galaxies have a lot of mass in the center of the very small volume of the space.

Therefore, the surprising thing about quasars was that due to this mass and energy they are 100 times more luminous than Milky Way which means they have high recession velocity and a very large amount of red-shifting.

A car drives 215 km east and then 45 km north. What is the magnitude of the car’s displacement? Round your answer to the nearest
34kurt

Displacement = (straight-line distance between the start point and end point) .

Since the road east is perpendicular to the road north,
the car drove two legs of a right triangle, and the magnitude
of its final displacement is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

    Length of the hypotenuse = √ (215² + 45²)

                                              =  √ (46,225 + 2,025)

                                              =   √ 48,250

                                              =       219.7 miles .
