The gravitational force of the shell exerts is 4.25m x 10¯¹² N.

We need to know about gravitational force to solve this problem. The gravitational force is the force caused by two masses of objects. The magnitude of gravitational force can be determined as

F = G.m1.m2 / R²

where F is the gravitational force, G is the gravitational constant (6.674 × 10¯¹¹ Nm²/kg²), m1 and m2 are the mass of the object and R is the radius.

From the question above, we know that

m1 = 1.6 kg

m2 = m

R = 5.01 m

By substituting the following parameters, we get

F = G.m1.m2 / R²

F = 6.674 × 10¯¹¹  . 1.6 . m / 5.01²

F = 4.25m x 10¯¹² N

where m is the mass of the shell

Starting from Newton’s law of universal gravitation, show how to find the speed of the moon in its orbit from the earth-moon dis
WARRIOR [948]

Answer: 1010.92 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (1)

Where:

F is the gravitational force between Earth and Moon

G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}} is the Gravitational Constant  

M=5.972(10)^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

m=7.349(10)^{22} kg is the mass of the Moon

r=3.9(10)^{8} m is the distance between the Earth and Moon

Asuming the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is a circular orbit, the Earth exerts a centripetal force on the moon, which is equal to F:

F=m.a_{C} (2)

Where a_{C} is the centripetal acceleration given by:

a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r} (3)  

Being V the orbital velocity of the moon

Making (1)=(2):

m.a_{C}=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}} (4)

Simplifying:

a_{C}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (5)

Making (5)=(3):

\frac{V^{2}}{r}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}} (6)  

Finding V:

V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}} (7)

V=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24} kg)}{3.9(10)^{8} m}} (8)

Finally:

V=1010.92 m/s

Two disks of identical mass but different radii (r and 2r) are spinning on frictionless bearings at the same angular speed ?0, b
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of a disc = 1/2 M R²

Since mass is same for both and radius are r and 2r, their moment of inertia can be in the ratio of 1: 4 . Let them be I and 4I . Angular speed are ω₀ and   - ω₀ .

We shall apply law of conservation of angular momentum .

initial total angular momentum

I x ω₀ - 4I x ω₀ = - 3Iω₀

Let final common angular momentum be ω

total final angular momentum = ( I + 4I ) ω

Applying law of conservation of angular momentum

( I + 4I ) ω =  - 3Iω₀

ω = - 3 / 5 ω₀ .

b )

Initial total rotational K E

= 1/2 I ω₀² + 1/2 4I ω₀²

= 1/2 x5I ω₀²

Final total rotational K E

= 1/2 ( I + 4I ) ( - 3 / 5 ω₀ )²

= 1/2 x 9 / 5 I ω₀²

= 9 / 10I ω₀²

change in rotational kinetic energy = 9 / 10I ω₀² - 1/2 x5I ω₀²

(9/10 - 5/2) xI ω₀²

=( .9 - 2.5 )I ω₀²

= - 1.6 I ω₀² Ans

A 512Hz tuning fork is used with a resonating column to determine the velocity of sound in water. If the spacing between resonan
EastWind [94]

Answer:

v= 1495.04 m/s

Explanation:

The formula for velocity of sound is given by ;

v= fλ   --------where

v= velocity of sound

f= frequency of turning fork

λ = wavelength

However,

Δ L = 1/2 λ   ------where Δ L is spacing between resonances.

1.46 = 1/2 λ

1.46 * 2 = λ

2.92 m = λ

v= fλ

v= 512 * 2.92

v= 1495.04 m/s
