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 .

An object has 90,000 J of kinetic energy and is moving at 12 m/s. What is the objects mass?
trapecia [35]

Answer:

plug it into your calculator

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = KE = Joules = J

KE= 1/2mv^2

90,000 = 1/2 m (12^2)

180,000 = m (144)

m = 180,000 / 144

What are some ways to separate a mixture?
stiks02 [169]

la separación mecánica de un sólido de grano grueso, insoluble, en un líquido; consiste en verter cuidadosamente el líquido, después de que se ha sedimentado el sólido.  Por este proceso se separan dos líquidos miscibles, de diferente densidad, por ejemplola separación de un sólido disuelto en un líquido, por calentamiento, hasta que hierve y se transforma en vapor. Como no todas las sustancias se evaporan con la misma rapidez, el sólido disuelto se obtiene en forma pura, agua y aceite.

Do you think that the universe has a starting point and ending point? explain.
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

I don't think the universe has a starting and ending point because the universe is vast and has not been fully discovered. I think that the universe is endless because all of the stars, planets, and galaxy's have yet to be found and the end or start of the universe is also yet to be discovered so I think that the universe could go on forever.

How does convection play a role in hurricanes
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Convection is what keeps the hurricane going in till the storm hits land.

Explanation:

Convection is the warm, moist current that rises above sea level and as it cools into water vapor it releases energy which a hurricane runs on. Once the hurricane hits land it continues to lose energy to keep it going because there's no convection from the sea currents rising above sea level to release energy.

Hope this helps.
