Answer:

Explanation:

The relation between time period of moon in the orbit around a planet can be given by the following relation .

T² = 4 π² R³ / GM

G is gravitational constant , M is mass of the planet , R is radius of the orbit and T is time period of the moon .

Substituting the values in the equation

(.3189 x 24 x 60 x 60 s)²  = 4 x 3.14² x ( 9380 x 10³)³ / (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x M)

759.167 x 10⁶ = 8.25 x 10²⁰ x 39.43 / (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x M )

M = .06424  x 10²⁵

= 6.4 x 10²³ kg .

Answer:

The length of line is 78 cm or 0.78 m.

Explanation:

initial reading 2 mark

final reading 80 cm

The length of the line

= final reading - initial reading

= 80 - 2

= 78 cm

1 cm = 0.01  m

So, 78 cm = 0.78 m

Answer:

Explanation:
Kinematics equation for first Object:

but:
The initial velocity is zero

it reach the water at in instant, t1, y(t)=0:


Kinematics equation for the second Object:
The initial velocity is zero

but:

it reach the water at in instant, t2, y(t)=0. If the second object is thrown 1s later, t2=t1-1=1.02s


The velocity is negative, because the object is thrown downwards
