The Mercury's mass for the given acceleration due to gravity is 0.3152 x 10²⁴ kg.

The ratio of the calculated and accepted value of the Mercury's mass is 0.95.

Mass is the amount of matter present in the object.

The mass of the object is always constant, anywhere it is on the Earth or Moon or any other planet.

Given is the acceleration due to gravity of Mercury planet at North pole is g = 3.698 m/s² and the radius of Mercury planet is 2440 km.

The acceleration due to gravity is related with mass as

g = GM/R²

Substitute the values, we have

3.698 = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x M/(2440 x1000)³

M = 2.2016 x 10¹³ / 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹

M = 0.3152 x 10²⁴ kg

Thus, the mercury's mass is 0.3152 x 10²⁴ kg.

(b) Accepted value of Mercury's mass is 3.301 x 10²³ kg

Ratio of the value of mass calculated and accepted is

Mcalc/M accep = 0.3152 x 10²⁴ kg / 3.301 x 10²³ kg

= 0.95

Thus, the ratio is 0.95

A parallel-plate air capacitor is made from two plates 0.190 m square, spaced 0.770 cm apart. It is connected to a 120 V battery

Naddik [55]

Answer:

aaksj

Explanation:

a) the capacitance is given of a plate capacitor is given by:

C = \epsilon_0*(A/d)

Where \epsilon_0 is a constant that represents the insulator between the plates (in this case air, \epsilon_0 = 8.84*10^(-12) F/m), A is the plate's area and d is the distance between the plates. So we have:

The plates are squares so their area is given by:

A = L^2 = 0.19^2 = 0.0361 m^2

C = 8.84*10^(-12)*(0.0361/0.0077) = 8.84*10^(-12) * 4.6883 = 41.444*10^(-12) F

b) The charge on the plates is given by the product of the capacitance by the voltage applied to it:

Q = C*V = 41.444*10^(-12)*120 = 4973.361 * 10^(-12) C = 4.973 * 10^(-9) C

c) The electric field on a capacitor is given by:

E = Q/(A*\epsilon_0) = [4.973*10^(-9)]/[0.0361*8.84*10^(-12)]

E = [4.973*10^(-9)]/[0.3191*10^(-12)] = 15.58*10^(3) V/m

d) The energy stored on the capacitor is given by:

W = 0.5*(C*V^2) = 0.5*[41.444*10^(-12) * (120)^2] = 298396.8*10^(-12) = 0.298 * 10 ^6 J

Why does th ground and atmosphere get warm during the day

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The Greenhouse Effect Revisited. When solar energy strikes the planet during the day, the ground, highways and other objects get hot and absorb that energy. As the sun goes down, the Earth cools by giving off infrared radiation. Because greenhouse gases absorb part of this radiation, the atmosphere warms and keeps the Earth from getting too cold.

An object is moving to the west at a constant speed. three forces are exerted on the object. one force is 10 n directed due nort

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

If we want the object to continue to move at constant speed, it means that the resultant of the forces acting on the object must be zero. So far, we have:
- force F1 with direction north, of 10 N
- force F2 with direction west, of 10 N
The third force must balance them, in order to have a net force of zero on the object.

The resultant of the two forces F1 and F2 is
$F_{12} = \sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2}= \sqrt{(10 N)^2+(10 N)^2}= \sqrt{200}=14.1 N$
with direction at $45^{\circ}$ north-west. This means that F3 must be equal and opposite to this force: so, F3 must have magnitude 14.1 N and its direction should be $45^{\circ}$ south-east.

Explanation:QA: “What is ordinary glass made of ?”

Glass is mostly silica, or silicon dioxide, present as quartz in many types of sand. Pure silica forms a highly transparent glass, but has a very high melting or softening temperature, around 1700°C. Even at such high temperatures it is highly viscous and difficult to work. Its use is largely confined to applications requiring high transparency to ultra-violet and infra-red radiation, stability at elevated temperatures or low thermal expansion coefficient.

“Ordinary glass” windows and drinking vessels are typically made from soda-lime glass, containing silica with around 25% sodium, calcium and other oxides, which together reduce the softening temperature to roughly 500–600°C
