Answer:

Pressure will triple (Boyle's Law)

Explanation:

Assuming a constant temperature: (compressing gases usually raises the temp significantly):

P1V1 = P2V2

P1V1 / V2 = P2

Now change V2 to 1/3 V2:

P1V1 / (1/3 V2 ) = P2 / (1/3 )

P1V1/ (1/3 v2 ) = 3 P2 <======= THE PRESSURE WILL TRIPLE

This is Boyle's Law

1. During the Middle Ages, armies often attacked castles using large siege engines such as the counterweight trebuchet at left.

Answer: Some challenges that I could see would be the walls, possibly a moat, tar, and the towers.

Explanation: The wall is obliviously a main problem, trying to get over it or through it is a difficult challenge. The moat (if it has one) means that there is more than likely only one way to get in or out. If it does have tar it means that the attackers are going to be put in a "sticky situation" And finally the towers, they have people at the top shooting arrows down at you, or throwing things at you.

What is the magnetic force on a proton that is moving at 5.2 x 107 m/s to the

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

1.1648×10⁻¹¹ N

Explanation:

Using

F = qvBsinФ..................... Equation 1

Where F = Force on the proton, q = charge, v = velocity, B = magnetic Field, Ф = angle between the magnetic Field and the velocity.

Note: The angle between v and B = 90°

Given: v = 5.2×10⁷ m/s, B = 1.4 T, q = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ C, Ф = 90°

Substitute into equation 1

F = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹(5.2×10⁷)(1.4)sin90°

F = 11.648×10⁻¹²

F = 1.1648×10⁻¹¹ N.

Sally and Sam are in a spaceship that comes to within 14,000 km of the asteroid Ceres. Determine the force Sally experiences, in

tatiyna

Sam and Sally are traveling aboard a spacecraft that approaches the asteroid Ceres within 14,000 kilometers. Sally will experience 1.989 × 10⁻¹¹ N of force.

<h3>What is the gravitational force?</h3>

Newton's law of gravity states that each particle having mass in the universe attracts each other particle with a force known as the gravitational force.

The gravitational force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of their distance.

Given data

Mass of asteroid ,m₁ = 8.7 1020 kg

Mass of sally,m₂ = 67 kg

Gravitational constant,G = 6.6 × 10⁻¹¹ kg⁻² m²

Distance of seperation,R = 14,000 km

$\rm F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{R^ 2} \\\\ F = 6.6 \times 10^{-11 }\times \frac{8.71020 \times 67 }{(14,000)^2} \\\\F = 1.989 \times 10^{-11 } \ N$

Hence, the force Sally experiences will be 1.989 × 10⁻¹¹ N.
