A satellite in a circular orbit of radius R around planet X has an orbital period T. If Planet X had one-fourth as much mass, th

Iteru [2.4K]

<h2>Answer: 2T</h2>

According to the Third Kepler’s Law of Planetary motion <em>“The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis (size) of its orbit”.</em>

In other words, this law states a relation between the orbital period $T$ of a body (moon, planet, satellite) orbiting a greater body in space with the size $R$ of its orbit.

This Law is originally expressed as follows (in the case of planet X and assuming we have a circular orbit):

$T^{2}=\frac{4\pi^{2}}{GM}R^{3}$ (1)

Where:

$G$ is the Gravitational Constant

$M=1.9(10)^{27}kg$ is the mass of planet X

$R$ is the radius of the orbit of the satellite around planet X

If we want to find the period, we have to express equation (1) as written below and substitute all the values:

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{R^{3}}{GM}}$ (2)

Now, we are asked to find the period when tha mass of the planet is $\frac{1}{4}M$ . In order to do this, we have to rewrite equation (2) with this new value:

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{R^{3}}{G(\frac{1}{4}M)}}$ (3)

Solving:

$T=4\pi\sqrt{\frac{R^{3}}{G(\frac{1}{4}M)}}$ (4)

On the other hand, if we multiply both sides of equation (2) by 2, we have:

$2T=4\pi\sqrt{\frac{R^{3}}{GM}}$ (5)

As we can see, (5) is equal to (4). This means the orbital period is twice the orignal period.

Hence, the answer is:

If Planet X had <u>one-fourth </u>as much mass, the <u>orbital period</u> of this satellite in an orbit of the same radius would be <u>2T.</u>

How to change the amount of charge to increase the current

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Since formula for current is

I = Q/t

or

Current = Charge / Time

to increase current, the charge must be increased per unit time.

A piece of putty and a tennis ball with the same mass are thrown against a wall with the same velocity. Which object experiences

cluponka [151]

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to define momentum.

Momentum is define as the product of mass and velocity.

That is P = mass×velocity

Also considering the third law of motion which states that: For every action, there is equal and opposite reaction.

Moreso, considering the 2nd law of motion which states that the rate of change in the momentum of a body is equal to the applied force and takes place in the direction of the applied force.

Now, applying P = mass×velocity

They both have same mass and velocity definitely, they will both experience same momentum.

Also from the question, the both share same velocity hence, the will both hit the wall with same velocity meaning the will both feel the same impact from the wall as well. Hence the third law of motion proves this right.

If The density of this stainless steel is7.85 g/cm3,specific heatis 0.5 J/g.K, melting pointis 1673K, heat of fusion s0.260J/kg.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

$\Delta H=687.4 J$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for this melting process, we can identify two sub-processes in order to take the stainless steel from solid to liquid:

1. Heat up from 298.15 K to 1673 K.

2. Undergo the phase transition.

Both process have an associated enthalpy as shown below:

$\Delta H_1=1g*0.5\frac{J}{g*K} (1673K-298.15K)=687.4J$

$\Delta H_2=0.001kg*\frac{0.260J}{kg} =0.00026J$

Therefore, the required heat is:

$\Delta H=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2\\\\\Delta H=687.4J+0.00026J\\\\\Delta H=687.4J$

Notice the problem is not providing neither the mass or volume, that is why we assumed the mass is 1 g; however, it can be changed to the mass you are given.

Best regards!

________ occurs when the horizontal winds move air against mountain ranges, forcing air to rise as it passes over the mountains.

Semenov [28]

The answer would be:
Precipitation sometimes occurs when the horizontal winds move air against mountain ranges, forcing air to rise as it passes over the mountains.
This happens when the air is forced to move from low elevation to high elevation due to rising terrain. This causes the air to cool adiabatically. This increases the relative humidity and causes clouds to form, under certain conditions it can also create precipitation.
