Mu = 8.66 × 10^25 kg

Explanation:

centripetal force = gravitational force

m \frac{ {v}^{2} }{r}  = (grav.const) \frac{m \times mu}{ {r}^{2} }

where

m = mass of moon Ariel

mu = mass of Uranus

r = radius of Ariel's orbit

v = Ariel's velocity around Uranus

To find the velocity, we need to find the circumference of the no orbit and then divide it by the period (2.52 days):

circumference = 2πr = 2π×(1.91 × 10^8 m)

= 1.2 × 10^9 m

period = 2.52 days × (24 h/1 day)×(3600 s/1 hr)

= 2.18 × 10^5 s

v = (1.2 × 10^9 m)/(2.18 × 10^5 s)

= 5.5 × 10^3 m/s

(5.5 × 10^3 m/s)^2/(1.91 × 10^8 m) = (6.67 × 10^-11 m^3/kg-s^2)Mu/(1.91 × 10^8 m)^2

Solving Mu,

Mu = 8.66 × 10^25 kg

givi [52]

Answer:

d = 13 miles

Explanation:

Lets say the position of court house is origin in this case

her office is located at 4 miles west and 4 miles south of court house

so here we have coordinate of the office with respect to court house is given as

r_1 = (-4\hat i - 4\hat j)

now the position of her home is located at 1 miles east and 8 miles north of the court house

so the coordinates of her home is given as

r_2 = (1\hat i + 8 \hat j)

now the change in the position is given as the distance between office and home

d = r_2 - r_1

d = 5 \hat i + 12 \hat j

d = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = 13 miles

The intensity I of light varies inversely as the square of the distance D from the source. If the intensity of illumination on a
emmasim [6.3K]

The intensity on a screen 20 ft from the light will be 0.125-foot candles.

<h3>What is the distance?</h3>

Distance is a numerical representation of the length between two objects or locations.

The intensity I of light varies inversely as the square of the distance D from the source;

I∝(1/D²)

The ratio of the intensity of the two cases;

\rm \frac{I_1}{I_2} =(\frac{D_2}{D_1} )^2\\\\ \rm \frac{2}{I_2} =(\frac{20}{5} )^2\\\\ \frac{2}{I_2} =4^2 \\\\ I_2= \frac{2}{16} \\\\  I_2= 0.125 \ foot-candles

Hence, the intensity on a screen 20 ft from the light will be 0.125 foot-candles

To learn more about the distance refer to the link;

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Hypermetropia (better known as Farsighted- this is why nearby objects seem blurry for him)

2) In such instances, image are typically formed farther from the near point

3) Such defects are quite common so there are common procedures such as using convex lens which can restore the sight to normal.

What is R2 in the circuit?<br> WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST !!!!
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

1. Rₑq = 4 Ω

2. R₂ = 6 Ω

3. Vₜ = 12 V, V₁ = 12 V, V₂ = 12 V

4. Iₜ = 3 A, I₁ = 1 A, I₂ = 2 A

Explanation:

1. Determination of the equivalent resistance

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Current (I) = 3 A

Resistance (Rₑq) =?

V= IRₑq

12 = 3 × Rₑq

Divide both side by 3

Rₑq = 12 / 3

Rₑq = 4 Ω

Thus, the equivalent resistance (Rₑq) = 4 Ω

2. Determination of R₂.

Equivalent resistance (Rₑq) = 4 Ω

Resistance 1 (R₁) = 12 Ω

Resistance 2 (R₂)

Since the resistor are in parallel arrangement, the value of R₂ can be obtained as follow:

Rₑq = R₁ × R₂ / R₁ + R₂

4 = 12 × R₂ / 12 + R₂

Cross multiply

4(12 + R₂) = 12R₂

48 + 4R₂ = 12R₂

Collect like terms

48 = 12R₂ – 4R₂

48 = 8R₂

Divide both side by 8

R₂ = 48 / 8

R₂ = 6 Ω

3. Determination of the total voltage (Vₜ), V₁ and V₂.

From the question given above, the total voltage is 12 V

Since the resistors are arranged in parallel connection, the same voltage will go through them.

Thus,

Vₜ = V₁ = V₂ = 12 V

4. Determination of the total current (Iₜ), I₁ and I₂

From the question given above, the total current (Iₜ) is 3 A

Next, we shall determine I₁. Since the resistors are arranged in parallel connection, different current will pass through each resistor respective.

Vₜ = V₁ = 12 V

R₁ = 12 Ω

I₁ =?

V₁ = I₁R₁

12 = I₁ ×12

Divide both side by 12

I₁ = 12 / 12

I₁ = 1 A

Next, we shall determine I₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Iₜ = 3 A

I₁ = 1 A

I₂ =?

Iₜ = I₁ + I₂

3 = 1 + I₂

Collect like terms

I₂ = 3 – 1

I₂ = 2 A
