5 0

Answer:

Mass of the planet = 6.0 × 10^{24}

Explanation:

Time period = 2π (R + h) / v

Orbital speed (v) = √GM / (R + h)

T² = 4π² (R + h)² / (GM/ (R + h))

    = 4π² (R + h)³ / GM

  making m the subject of the formula

m = 4π² (R + h)³ / GT²

   = 4π² ( 6.38 × 10^{6} + 230 × 10³ )³ / ( 6.67 × 10^{-11}) × (89 × 60)²

    = 4π² ( 6610000)³ / ( 6.67 × 10^{-11}) × (89 × 60)²

    = 5.99 × 10^{24}

     = 6.0 × 10^{24}

2. A 50 kg diver is standing on the edge of a 15 m high cliff. What is his potential energy?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

3675 J

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy = \frac{1}{2} × mass × g × height

( g is the gravitation field strength )

Mass = 50 kg

G = 9.8 N/kg ( this is always the same )

Height = 15 m

Gravitational Potential Energy = \frac{1}{2} × 50 ×9.8 × 15

= 3675 J

One speaker generates sound waves with amplitude A.
raketka [301]

Answer:

iv) It is 9x bigger than before

Explanation:

As the amplitudes of the new speakers add directly with the original one, taking into account the phase that they have, the composed amplitude of the sound wave is as follows:

At = A + 4A -2A = 3 A

The intensity of the wave, assuming it propagates evenly in all directions, is constant at a given distance from the source, and can be expressed as follows:

I = P/A

where P= Power of the wave source, A= Area (for a point source, is equal to the surface area of a sphere of radius r, where is r is the distance to the source along a straight line)

For a sinusoidal wave, the power is proportional to the square of the amplitude, so the intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude also.

If the amplitude changes increasing three times, the change in intensity will be proportional to the square of the change in amplitude, i.e., it will be 9 times bigger.

So, the statement iv) is the right one.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

A. carbon and boron

Explanation:

Carbon and boron is not an alloy.

An allow forms between metals and metals using their huge electron could.

Carbon is a non-metal, boron is a also a non-metal

Two non-metals combining together does not make an alloy.

Iron, nickel, aluminum  are all metals.
