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 .

A scale reads 184 N when a piece of copper is hanging from it. What does it read (in N) when it is lowered so that the copper is
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

  163 N

Explanation:

The density of copper is about 8.96. The ratio of the weight in water to the weight in air is about 1-1/ρ, so is about 0.8884.

  0.8884 × 184 N ≈ 163 N

The submerged weight is about 163 N.

For a particular experiment at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, electrons are each accelerated to an energy of exactly
larisa [96]

Answer:

a) 0.99999 e

b) 1*10^-5 s

c) 3*10^-2 m

Explanation:

Given data:

Electron energy : 50 GeV

assuming the rest mass of an electron = 0.5 MeV/c^2

A) Determine the velocity of each electron

velocity of each electron ( v ) ≈ 0.999 e

B) How much time does it take the electrons to travel the length of the accelerator given that the accelerator = 3km long

Lo = 3 * 10^3 m

T = (3 * 10^3 )/ (0.999 * 3 * 10^8)

   = 1 * 10 ^-5

C) How long does the accelerator look form the perspective of the electrons

L = Lo / r  = Lo \sqrt{1 - \frac{r^2}{v^2} }

hence L = 3 * 10^-2 m
