Suppose you observe a star orbiting the galactic center at a speed of 1200 km/s in a circular orbit with a radius of 25 light-days. What would your estimate be for the mass of the object that the star is orbiting

Waves are used in many practical applications to support work, entertainment, and health. one example is the use of ultrasound imaging to safely track the development of a growing fetus. what is a specific example of a practical application of waves in medicine, entertainment, safety, or other fields? provide a brief explanation of how the properties of waves are useful to that application.

How much energy is supplied to each coulomb of charge that flows through a 12-v battery?

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.
