Answer:

6.27*10^{23}kg

Explanation:

assume

M= mass of Mars

m=mass of phobos

r=orbital radius

T=period

we can apply F=ma to this orbital motion (considering the cricular motion laws)

where,

F=\frac{GMm}{r^{2} }  and a=rω^2

where ω=\frac{2\pi }{T} and G is the universal gravitational constant.

G = 6.67 x 10-11 N m2 / kg2

F=ma\\\frac{GMm}{r^{2} }=mr(\frac{2\pi }{T} )^{2}\\  M=\frac{r^{3}}{G}  (\frac{2\pi }{T} )^{2}\\M=\frac{(9.4*10x^{6} )^{3}*(2\pi )^{2} }{(2.8*10^{4}) ^{2} *6.67*10^{-11} } \\M=6.27*10^{23}kg

List 5 reason why water is not thermometric liquid​
kolezko [41]

Answer:

(1) it is transparent so it makes the reading difficult. (2) it is volatile. (3) it is a poor conductor of heat. (4) it has a higher specific heat capacity, so it absorbs more heat from the body with which it is kept in contact. (5) Water cannot be used in thermometer because of its higher freezing point and lower boiling point than other liquids . If water is used in a thermometer , it will start phase change at 0oC and 100oC and will not measure temperature , out of this range .

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST :)
