The moon Umbriel orbits Uranus (mass = 8.68 x 10^25 kg) at a distance of 2.66 x 10^8 m. What is Umbriel's orbital period (in hou
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

T = 99.51 hour

Explanation:

Mass of Uranus, M=8.68\times 10^{25}\ kg

The moon Umbriel orbits Uranus at a distance of 2.66\times 10^8\ m

We need to find Umbriel's orbital period. Let it is T. Using Kepler's third law of motion to find it.

T^2\propto r^3\\\\T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2r^3}{GM}\\\\T^2=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times (2.66\times 10^8)^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 8.68\times 10^{25}}\\\\T=358244.51\ s

As 1 hour = 3600 s

358244.51 s = 99.51 hour

Hence, Umbriel's orbital period is 99.51 hour.

James Bond is trying to escape his enemy on a speedboat but
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

100 m/s

Explanation:

Mass the mass of Bond's boat is m₁. His enemy's boat is twice the mass of Bond's i.e. m₂ = 2 m₁

Initial speed of Bond's boat is 0 as it won't start and remains stationary in the water. The initial speed of enemy's boat is 50 m/s. After the collision, enemy boat is  completely stationary. Let v₁ is speed of bond's boat.

It is the concept of the conservation of momentum. It remains conserved. So,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Putting all the values, we get :

0+(2m_1)50=m_1v_1+(2m_2)(0)\\\\100m_1=m_1v_1\\\\v_1=100\ m/s

So, Bond's boat is moving with a speed of 100 m/s after the collision.

Why is the motion of an athlete moving along the circular path with Constant speed considered to be an accelerated motion?
Strike441 [17]

The speed is changing its direction all the time. There is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no acceleration.

This is the general formula for acceleration

a = dv/dt

When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity (the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).

There is a formula (which can be deducted from the previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:

a = v^2/r

Let’s talk about the units:

v is in m/s

r is in m

so v^2/r

is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2

which is the same unit as dv/dt:

dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2
