The gravitational effect on other bodies determines the weight (or the mass) of a planet. We must somehow measure the strength of its "tug" on another object in order to use gravity to find the mass of a planet. We can harness Newton's equations to deduce what the mass of the planet must be through observing the time it takes for the satellite to orbit its primary planet.

 

Given:

 

Mass of Venus = 4.87 x 1024 kg

= 4986.88

Mass of Jupiter = 1.898 x 1024 kg

= 1943.552

Mass of Jupiter compared to mass of Venus

 

1943.552 / 4986.88

= 0.3897330595482546

= 0.3897330595482546 x 100%

= 38.97%

 

So, in this problem, <span>the mass of Jupiter is about 0.39 times the mass of Venus.</span>

"What is the magnifying power of an astronomical telescope using a reflecting mirror whose radius of curvature is 5.9 m and an e
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The Magnifying power of a telescope is M = 109.26

Explanation:

Radius of curvature R = 5.9 m = 590 cm

focal length of objective f_{objective} = \frac{R}{2}

⇒ f_{objective} = \frac{590}{2}

⇒ f_{objective} = 295 cm

Focal length of eyepiece f_{eyepiece} = 2.7 cm

Magnifying power of a telescope is given by,

M = \frac{f_{objective} }{f_{eyepiece} }

M = \frac{295}{2.7}

M = 109.26

therefore the Magnifying power of a telescope is M = 109.26

A disc is thrown through the air for 1.5 min with a power output of 12.5 W. How much work is done when throwing the disc?
klasskru [66]

Answer:

work = 1125 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember the definition of power, which is defined as the relationship between work and time. The power can be calculated using the following equation:

Power = work/time

Power = 12.5 [w]

work = joules [J]

time = 1.5 [min] = 90 [s]

work = 12.5*90

work = 1125 [J]

A 5kg ball is on top of the school building at a height of 40m above the ground.
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

A-Caclcuate the potential energy of the ball at that height

Explanation:

(a). Mass of the Body = 10 kg.

Height = 10 m.

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Using the Formula,Potential Energy = mgh

= 10 × 9.8 × 10 = 980 J.

(b). Now, By the law of the conservation of the Energy, Total amount of the energy of the system remains constant.

∴ Kinetic Energy before the body reaches the ground is equal to the Potential Energy at the height of 10 m.

∴ Kinetic Energy = 980 J.

(c). Kinetic Energy = 980 J.

Mass of the ball = 10 kg.

∵ K.E. = 1/2 × mv²

∴ 980 = 1/2 × 10 × v²

∴ v² = 980/5

⇒ v² = 196

∴ v = 14 m/s.
