Answer:
2200000 = 2.2E6 min for light from Proxima to reach earth
8.3 min from light sun to reach earth
2.2E6/8.3 = 2.56E5 times for light from Proxima
Proxima is about 256,000 times farther away than the sun
Since the sun is about 93,000,000 = 9.3E7 miles from earth
Proxima is then 9.3E7 * 2.56E5 = 2.4E13 miles away
Note - the speed of light is
3.00E8 m/s * 60 s/min / 1000 m/km = 1.8E7 km/min as given
Answer:
6666.67 Newtons
Explanation:
The formula F=ma (force is equal to mass multiplied by acceleration) can be used to calculate the answer to this question.
In this case:
- mass= 0.1mg= 1*10^-7 kg
- velocity= 4.00*10^3 m/s
- time= 6.00*10^-8 s
Using velocity and time, acceleration can be calculated as:
Substituting these values into the formula F=ma, the answer is:
- F= (1*10^-7)kg * (6.667*10^10) m/s²
- F= 6666.67 Newtons of force
Answer:
Explanation:
Let m be mass of each sphere and θ be angle, string makes with vertex in equilibrium.
Let T be tension in the hanging string
T cosθ = mg ( for balancing in vertical direction )
for balancing in horizontal direction
Tsinθ = F ( F is force of repulsion between two charges sphere)
Dividing the two equations
Tanθ = F / mg
tan17 = F / (7.1 x 10⁻³ x 9.8)
F = 21.27 x 10⁻³ N
if q be charge on each sphere , force of repulsion between the two
F = k q x q / r² ( r is distance between two sphere , r = 2 x .7 x sin17 = .41 m )
21.27 x 10⁻³ = (9 X 10⁹ x q²) / .41²
q² = .3973 x 10⁻¹²
q = .63 x 10⁻⁶ C
no of electrons required = q / charge on a single electron
= .63 x 10⁻⁶ / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹
= .39375 x 10¹³
3.9375 x 10¹² .
Condensation happens when molecules in a gas cool down. As the molecules lose heat, they lose energy and slow down. They move closer to other gas molecules. Finally these molecules collect together to form a liquid. Hope it helps
