Derive kepler's third law

F = G(Mm/r^2)F = mv^2/rG(Mm/r^2) = mω^2rω = 2π/TG(Mm/r^2) = 4π^2mr/T^2GM/r^3 = 4π^2/T^2T^2 = r^3 (4π^2/GM)

how do you calculate the charge of a neuclues compared to an ion?

With an neucleus, the charge is calculated by using the formula: number of protons x the charge of a single electron with an ion, the charge is calculated using the formula:number of extra charge x charge of...

A Uranium-(238,92) nucleus decays into a Thorium-234 nucleus by the emission of an alpha-particle. Given Thorium has a chemical symbol Th build a nuclear equation.

A nuclear equation expresses all of the elements before (LHS of = sign) and after (RHS of = sign) the reaction in terms of nucleon (N) and proton number (A), both quantities are conserved during the reaction...
