Question

Martin was standing on a very high cliff on the moon (where there is no atmosphere).
He had a rock and a feather in his hand. He let them go at the same time. Select all
the statements that are true.
The rock hit the ground first.
The feather hit the ground first.
The rock and the feather hit the ground at the same time.
Both the rock and the feather were traveling faster when they landed than when
Martin let them go.
It took the rock more time to hit the ground than if it had been let go from a cliff of the
same height on Mars.

Black holes are difficult to observewith telescopes because they, bydefinition, don’t emit or reflect any light. They can be found by look-ing for other nearby objects orbit-ing them, however. Here is a dia-gram of a star in a circular orbit around a black hole. a. The period of the star’s orbit is 90 days, and its orbital radius around the black hole isobserved to be 3.6 : ×10^11 m. Find the orbital velocity of the star in units of m/s. (You need to convert 90 days to seconds, first). The circumference of a circle is 2πr. b. The mass of the star is known to be 4 × 10^30 kg. Find the centripetal acceleration of thestar and the strength of the gravitational force on the star. c. Find the mass of the black hole.
