Aplanet moves in an elliptical orbit around the sun. the mass of the sun is ms. the minimum and maximum distances of the planet from the sun are r1 and r2. using kepler's 3rd law and newton's law of universal gravitation, find the period of revolution p of the planet as it moves around the sun. assume that the mass of the planet is much smaller than the mass of the sun. use g as the gravitational constant

Ammonia enters the expansion valve of a refrigeration system at a pressure of 10 bar and a temperature of 18oc and exits at 6.0 bar. the refrigerant undergoes a throttling process. determine the temperature, in oc, and the quality of the refrigerant at the exit of the expansion valve.

An astronaut in space cannot use a scale or balance to weigh objects because there is no gravity. but she does have devices to measure distance and time accurately. she knows her own mass is 77.4 kg , but she is unsure of the mass of a large gas canister in the airless rocket. when this canister is approaching her at 3.50 m/s , she pushes against it, which slows it down to 1.30 m/s (but does not reverse it) and gives her a speed of 2.60 m/s . what is the mass of the canister?
