Answer:
7.48 x 10⁵ m
Explanation:
g = 7.86 N/kg
M = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg, R = 6.37 x 10⁶ m.
Find height h
g = GM/(R + h)²
(R + h)² = GM/g = 6.67 x 10⁺¹¹ x 5.97 x 10²⁴ /7.86 = 5.066 x 10¹³
R + h = 7.12 x 10⁶ m
so
h = 7.12 x 10⁶ - 6.37 x 10⁶ = 7.48 x 10⁵ m
Answer:
b) Betelgeuse would be
times brighter than Sirius
c) Since Betelgeuse brightness from Earth compared to the Sun is
the statement saying that it would be like a second Sun is incorrect
Explanation:
The start brightness is related to it luminosity thought the following equation:
(1)
where
is the brightness,
is the star luminosity and
, the distance from the star to the point where the brightness is calculated (measured). Thus:
b)
and
where
is the Sun luminosity (
) but we don't need to know this value for solving the problem.
is light years.
Finding the ratio between the two brightness we get:

c) we can do the same as in b) but we need to know the distance from the Sun to the Earth, which is
. Then

Notice that since the star luminosities are given with respect to the Sun luminosity we don't need to use any value a simple states the Sun luminosity as the unit, i.e 1. From this result, it is clear that when Betelgeuse explodes it won't be like having a second Sun, it brightness will be 5 orders of magnitude smaller that our Sun brightness.
Answer:
1185 N
Explanation:
From Newton’s second law of motion,
F=ma where m= mass of motorcycle, a is acceleration of the motorcycle and F=Force
Net force acting on motorcycle
is given by
Where F is force acting on motorcycle and f is frictional force
Substituting F-f for
hence ma= F- f Substituting a with 3, m with 245Kg and f with 450N as provided
245*3= F- 450
F=245*3 +450= 1185 N
Convex lenses are thicker at the centers than the edges, they are known as the converging lenses. Rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). When rays of light that are parallel pass through a convex lens they are refracted, the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.
Answer:
m = 5 [mg]
Explanation:
We must remember that the definition of linear momemtum is defined as the product of mass by distance.
P = m*v
P = momentum = 40 [mg*m/s]
m = mass [mg]
v = velocity = 8 [m/s]
Now clearing m:
m = P/v
m = 40/8
m = 5 [mg]
