Plaskett's binary system consists of two stars that revolve In a circular orbit about a center of mass midway between them. This statement implies that the masses of the two stars are equal . Assume the orbital speed of each star is |v | = 240 km/s and the orbital period of each is 12.5 days. Find the mass M of each star. (For comparison, the mass of our Sun is 1.99 times 1030 kg Your answer cannot be understood or graded.

Acommon technique in analysis of scientific data is normalization. the purpose of normalizing data is to eliminate irrelevant constants that can obscure the salient features of the data. the goal of this experiment is to test the hypothesis that the flux of light decreases as the square of the distance from the source. in this case, the absolute value of the voltage measured by the photometer is irrelevant; only the relative value conveys useful information. suppose that in part 2.2.2 of the experiment, students obtain a signal value of 162 mv at a distance of 4 cm and a value of 86 mv at a distance of 5.7 cm. normalize the students' data to the value obtained at 4 cm. (divide the signal value by 162.) then calculate the theoretically expected (normalized) value at 5.7 cm.
