Advocard [28]4 years ago

Answer: gravitational force between them will be reduced by one - fourth ( 1/4) of its initial value.

Explanation: Gravitational force between two bodies obeys inverse square law. That is, gravitational force between two bodies is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two bodies.

When the mammoth is at a distance that is twice the original distance, the gravitational force between them will be reduced by one - fourth ( 1/4 ) of its initial value.

What is the process by which water dissolves certain minerals in the soil and carries them away?
Mademuasel [1]
The correct answer would be LEACHING. When at first thought, it would seem that it is erosion. Erosion not only eliminates the soil minerals, it also washes everything else and that includes the soil. <span>In a different manner, Leaching can happen when certain minute particles of the minerals are melted and mixes with water. All that is left in the soil will be the bigger particles that are not soluble by water. In this manner, only a soil that cannot properly nourish remains as it is stripped off of minerals.</span>

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface, pointing down, that averages 100 N/C. This field is maintained by variou
zlopas [31]

Answer:

q = 3.6 10⁵  C

Explanation:

To solve this exercise, let's use one of the consequences of Gauss's law, that all the charge on a body can be considered at its center, therefore we calculate the electric field on the surface of a sphere with the radius of the Earth

          r = 6 , 37 106 m

          E = k q / r²

          q = E r² / k

          q = \frac{100 \ (6.37 \ 10^6)^2}{9 \ 10^9}

          q = 4.5 10⁵ C

Now let's calculate the charge on the planet with E = 222 N / c and radius

           r = 0.6 r_ Earth

           r = 0.6 6.37 10⁶ = 3.822 10⁶ m

           E = k q / r²

            q = E r² / k

            q = \frac{222 (3.822 \ 10^6)^2}{ 9 \ 10^9}

            q = 3.6 10⁵  C

What is the speed of light in water?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Speed of the light in water= 225,000 km/s

Explanation:

At the speed with which light propagates through a homogeneous and transparent medium, it is a constant characteristic of that medium, and therefore, it changes from one medium to another.

Due to its enormous magnitude, the measurement of the speed of light has required the invention of ingenious procedures that will overcome the inconvenience of short land distances in relation to such extraordinary speed.

Astronomical methods and terrestrial methods have been giving ever closer results. At present, the value c = 299,792,458 km / s is accepted for the speed of light in a vacuum. In any transparent material medium the light propagates with a speed that is always lower than c. Thus, for example, in water it does so at around 75% of the speed of light in a vacuum: about 225,000 km / s.

Light traveling through plate glass (n = 1.52) approaches the surface, i.e. the air-glass interface. What minimum incident angle
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

41°

Explanation:

refractive index of glass, n = 1.52

For total internal reflection, the angle of refraction in rarer medium is 90°.

r = 90°

Let the angle of refraction in denser medium, that means in glass is i.

By use of Snell's law

refractive  index of rarer medium with respect to denser medium, that means refractive index of air with respect to glass = 1 / n

And

\frac{1}{n}=\frac{Sin i}{Sin r}

\frac{1}{1.52}=\frac{Sin i}{Sin 90}

0.658= Sin i

i = 41°

Thus, the angle of incidence should be 41°.
