According to the universal law of gravitation, the force due to gravity is a. inversely proportional to the square of the distance between objects.

<h3>What is the universal law of gravitation?</h3>

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that objects are attracted to each other in the universe with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

The equation that represents this law is;

F = G × M1M2 ÷ r∧2

Where,

F is the gravitational force acting between two objects

M1 and M2 are the masses of the objects

r is the distance between the centers of their masses

G is the gravitational constant.

Thus. according to the universal law of gravitation, the force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between objects.

An uncharged capacitor is connected to a 21-V battery until it is fully charged, after which it is disconnected from the battery
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

The voltage bewtween the plates will be 9.5V

Explanation:

Facts:

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor having plate area A and plate separation d is C=ϵ0A/d.  

Where ϵ0 is the permittivity of free space.  

A capacitor filled with dielectric slab of dielectric constant K, will have a new capacitance C1=ϵ0kA/d

        C1=K(ϵ0A/d)

        C1=KC   ----------- 1

Where C is the capacitance with no dielectric and C1 is the capacitance with dielectric.

The new capacitance is k times the capacitance of the capacitor without dielectric slab.  

This implies that the charge storing capacity of a capacitor increases k times that of the capacitor without dielectric slab.

Given points

• The terminal voltage of the battery to which the capacitor is connected to charge V=25V

• A dielectric slab of paraffin of dielectric constant K=2  is inserted in the space between the capacitor plates after the fully charged capacitor is disconnected

The charge stored in the original capacitor Q=CV

The charge stored in the original capacitor after inserting dielectric Q1=C1V1

The law of conservation of energy states that the energy stored is constant:

i.e Charge stored in the original capacitor is same as charge stored after the dielectric is inserted.

Q   =  Q1

CV = C1V1

  CV = C1V1  -------2

We derived C1=KC from equation 1. Inserting this into equation 2

   CV = KCV1

 V1 = (CV)/KC

         V/K

       = 21/2.2

      = 9.5

What is the difference between direct current and alternating current?
IRINA_888 [86]
In a direct current, the electric charge, or current, only flows in one direction. In an alternating current, the electric charge changes periodically.

How much heat is needed to change the temperature of 3 grams of gold (c = 0.129 ) from 21°C to 363°C? The answer is expressed to
Temka [501]

Q= mcΔT

Where Q is heat or energy

M is mass, c is heat capacitance and t is temperature

You have to convert Celsius into kelvin in order to use this formula I believe

Celsius + 273 = Kelvin

21 + 273 = 294K

363 + 273 = 636K

Now...

Q= (0.003)(0.129)(636-294)

Q= 0.132 J if you are using kilograms, in terms of grams which seems more appropriate the answer would be 132J of energy.

Which of the following is a definition of glass transition temperature?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

c. The temperature at which a glass transforms from a solid to liquid.

Explanation:

The glass transition temperature is said to be a temperature range when a polymer structure transition from a glass or hardy(solid) material to a rubber like or viscous liquid material.

The glass transition temperature is an important property that is critical in product design.
