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}

A 5-kg ball collides inelastically head-on with a 10-kg ball, which is initially stationary. Which of the following statements i
NARA [144]

Answer:

The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball.

Explanation:

In inelastic collision, the total momentum is always conserved after collision but the kinetic energy is reduced.

Momentum is Mass X velocity.

5 kg ball is in motion, while 10 kg ball is stationary; that is zero velocity.

The momentum of 10 kg ball before collision is zero while the momentum of 5 kg ball before collision is more than zero. Therefore, the magnitude of change in momentum will not be equal.

Next possible options are in kinetic Energy

Initial Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2}mu^2

Final kinetic energy =\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Change in kinetic energy = Final Kinetic Energy - Initial Kinetic Energy

Change in kinetic energy of 5kg ball = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-u)^2

Since the 5-kg ball has initial velocity (u), the magnitude of the change in velocity will be reduced.

Change in kinetic energy of 10kg ball:

the ball is initially at rest, therefore the initial velocity (u) will be zero (0)

Δ K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-u)^2 = \frac{1}{2}m(v-0)^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

From the solution above, the magnitude of the change in velocity experienced by 10 kg ball is higher than 5 kg ball.

Hence, The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball
