Advocard [28]3 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.

A bucket of mass m is hanging from the free end of a rope whose other end is wrapped around a drum (radius R, mass M) that can r
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let T be the tension .

Applying newton's second law on the downward movement of the bucket

mg - T = ma

On the drum , a torque of TR will be acting which will create an angular acceleration of α in it . If I be the moment of inertia of the drum

TR = Iα

TR = Ia/ R

T =  Ia/ R²

Replacing this value of T in the other equation

mg - T = ma

mg - Ia/ R²  = ma

mg =  Ia/ R² +ma

a ( I/ R² +m)= mg

a = mg / ( I/ R² +m)

mg - T = ma

mg - ma  = T

mg - m x mg / ( I/ R² +m) = T

mg - m²g / ( I/ R² +m ) = T

mg - mg / ( 1 + I / m R² ) = T

b ) T =  Ia/ R²

I = TR² / a

c ) Moment of inertia of hollow cylinder

I = 1/2  M ( R² - R² / 4 )

= 3/4 x 1/2 MR²

= 3/8 MR²

I / R² = 3/8 M

a = mg / ( I/ R² +m)

a = mg / ( 3/8 M + m )

T =  Ia/ R²

= 3/8 MR² x mg / ( 3/8 M + m ) x 1 /R²

= \frac{3mMg}{(3M +8m)}

Which of the following statements about the nuclear strong force is true?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer: 2, the nuclear strong force drops to practically nothing at large distances.

Explanation: The protons and neutrons in the nucleus share subatomic particles called pions. This exchange is what keeps the protons and neutrons stuck together in the nucleus. Despite the strong force being the strongest force, it has a very small range. This is because pions have very short lifespans. So, the strong force would have literally no effect at large distances.

Hope that helped! :)

An open organ pipe 30 cm long and a closed organ pipe 23 cm long, both of same diameter , are each sounding its first overtone ,
cupoosta [38]

First overtone of open organ pipe is given as

f_{1o} = \frac{v}{L_1 + 2e}

first overtone of closed organ pipe is given as

f_{1c} = \frac{3v}{4(L_2 + e)}

now they are in unison so we will have

\frac{v}{L_1 + 2e} = \frac{3v}{4(L_2 + e)}

\frac{1}{30 + 2e} = \frac{3}{4(23 + e)}

90 + 6e = 92 + 4e

e = 1 cm

so end correction of both pipes is e = 1 cm

f an arrow is shot upward on the moon with velocity of 35 m/s, its height (in meters) after t seconds is given by h(t)=35t−0.83t
inysia [295]

Answer:

The velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds is 30.02 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

An arrow is shot upward on the moon with velocity of 35 m/s, its height after t seconds is given by the equation:

h(t)=35t-0.83t^2

We know that the rate of change of displacement is equal to the velocity of an object.

v(t)=\dfrac{dh(t)}{dt}\\\\v(t)=\dfrac{d(35t-0.83t^2)}{dt}\\\\v(t)=35-1.66t

Velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds will be :

v(t)=35-1.66t\\\\v(t)=35-1.66(3)\\\\v(t)=30.02\ m/s

So, the velocity of the arrow after 3 seconds is 30.02 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

PLEASE HELP ASAP! THANKS!<br><br> Why is it a rare occasion to see a solar eclipse from your home?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

It is very rare to see a solar eclipse from your home, because the Earth, Sun, and the moon need to align just right.  Not everyone in the world can view a solar eclipse, only some area can.  A solar eclipse is where the moon blocks out the sun.  If you think about it:  Let's say you live in Florida, U.S.A.  You may see the moon coming in front of the sun, but if you lived in California or sumthin', the moon and the sun wouldn't be aligned to form a solar eclipse.  It all depends on location... so it is rare to see one.
