A binary star system consists of two equal mass stars that revolve in circular orbits about their center of mass. The period of

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

$m = 2.23 \times 10^{-32} kg$

Explanation:

Given data:

PERIOD OF MOTION IS T = 25.5 days

orbital speeds = 220 km/s

we know that

acceleration due to centripetal force is $a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{V^2}{r}$

Gravitational force $F= \frac{Gm m}{d^2}$

we know that

$v = \frac{2\pi R}{T}$

solving for

$R = \frac{vT}{2\pi}$

$F = \frac{Gm^2}{4(\frac{vT}{2\pi})^2}$

$F = G\times \frac{\pi m}{(vT)^2}$

$a = \frac{v^2}{\frac{vT}{2\pi}}$

$a = \frac{2\pi v}{T}$

we know that

f =ma

$G\times \frac{\pi m}{(vT)^2} = a = \frac{2\pi m v}{T}$

solving for m

$m = \frac{2Tv^3}{\pi G}$

$m = \frac{2\times 25.5 \times 86400 \times 220000^3\ m/s}{\pi \times 6.67\times 10^{-11}}$

$m = 2.23 \times 10^{-32} kg$

What are the two principle advantages of telescopes over eyes?

Stells [14]

Answer:

i) Telescopes can be used to view far distant objects but the human eye can't view far distant objects.

ii) Telescopes uses two convex lenses producing a magnified image while the human eye only possesses one convex lens (image seen are smaller than that viewed under telescopes)

Explanation:

The telescopes can be used to view far distant objects due to their presence of two convex lenses. The two convex lenses are the objective lens (lens closer to object) and the eye piece lens (lens closer to eye). The object to be viewed forms an intermediate image first before the final image is seen using the eye piece lens.

The human eye only possess one convex lens and as such cannot view far ranged objects.

What is the half-reaction that occurs at the cathode during the electrolysis of molten potassium bromide?

polet [3.4K]

The complete ionization of KBr into its constituents is:
KBr (s) ---> K+ (aq) + Br- (aq)

During electrolysis, oxidation takes place at the anode electrode. This means that an ion is stripped off its electron hence becoming more positive:
2 Br- (aq) ---> Br2 (g) + 2e-

We can see that Bromine gas Br2 is evolved at the anode.

Meanwhile at the cathode, the reduction reaction occurs. Which means that the electron from the anode electrode is used to make an ion more negative:
2K+ (aq) + 2e- ---> 2K (s) 
Hence, through reduction, solid potassium is deposited on the plate.

Half reactions:

Anode: 2 Br- (aq) ---> Br2 (g) + 2e-

Cathode: 2K+ (aq) + 2e- ---> 2K (s)
