Answer: The correct answer is option (D).

Explanation:

Voltmeter is a device which measures the the voltage applied across the circuit. It is an electrical instrument used to measure the electric potential between the two points in an electric circuit.

Where as:

A switch is the device which used to connect or disconnect the circuit.

Resistor is a device which opposes the flow of current is an electric circuit.

An ammeter the is an electrical device which measures the amount of current in flowing in amperes in an electrical circuit

Hence,the correct answer is option (D).

The Moon requires about 1 month (0.08 year) to orbit Earth. Its distance from us is about 400,000 km (0.0027 AU). Use Kepler’s t

dem82 [27]

Answer:

$\frac{M_e}{M_s} = 3.07 \times 10^{-6}$

Explanation:

As per Kepler's III law we know that time period of revolution of satellite or planet is given by the formula

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM}}$

now for the time period of moon around the earth we can say

$T_1 = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{r_1^3}{GM_e}}$

here we know that

$T_1 = 0.08 year$

$r_1 = 0.0027 AU$

$M_e$ = mass of earth

Now if the same formula is used for revolution of Earth around the sun

$T_2 = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{r_2^3}{GM_s}}$

here we know that

$r_2 = 1 AU$

$T_2 = 1 year$

$M_s$ = mass of Sun

now we have

$\frac{T_2}{T_1} = \sqrt{\frac{r_2^3 M_e}{r_1^3 M_s}}$

$\frac{1}{0.08} = \sqrt{\frac{1 M_e}{(0.0027)^3M_s}}$

$12.5 = \sqrt{(5.08 \times 10^7)\frac{M_e}{M_s}}$

$\frac{M_e}{M_s} = 3.07 \times 10^{-6}$

Arturiano [62]

The kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame is 6.704*10^22 Joules.

To find the answer, we have to know about the Lorentz transformation.

<h3>What is its kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame?</h3>

It is given that, an alien spaceship traveling at 0.600 c toward the Earth, in the same direction the landing craft travels with a speed of 0.800 c relative to the mother ship. We have to find the kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame, if the landing craft has a mass of 4.00 × 10⁵ kg.

$V_x'=0.8c\\V=0.6c\\m=4*10^5kg$

Let us consider the earth as S frame and space craft as S' frame, then the expression for KE will be,

$KE=m_0c^2=\frac{mc^2}{1-(\frac{v_x^2}{c^2} )}$

So, to $V_x=(0.8+0.6)c-[\frac{0.6c*(0.8c)^2}{c^2}]=1.016$ find the KE, we have to find the value of speed of the approaching landing craft with respect to the earth frame.
We have an expression from Lorents transformation for relativistic law of addition of velocities as,
