By what factor would a person’s weight be increased if Earth had 10 times its present mass, but the same volume?

Physics

Dafna1 [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

10 times

Explanation:

The weight of the person is defined as the product of mass of person and the acceleration due to gravity of that planet.

Let the gravity is g.

W = m x g     .... (1)

Now the value of g depends on the mass of earth when the radius of earth is constant.

g' = 10 g

So, W'  = m x g' = m x 10 g = 10 mg = 10 W     (from (1)

So, the weight of the person becomes 10 times.

Calculate the magnitude of the electric field 2.00 m from a point charge of 5.00 mC (such as found on the terminal of a Van de G
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field is 1.124 X 10⁷ N/C

Explanation:

Magnitude of electric field is given as;

E = \frac{kq}{r^2} , N/C

where;

E is the magnitude of the electric field, N/C

q is the point charge, C

k is coulomb's constant, Nm²/C²

r is the distance of the point charge, m

Given;

q = 5mC = 5×10⁻³ C

r = 2m

k = 8.99 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values and solve for magnitude of electric field E

E = \frac{kq}{r^2}  = \frac{(8.99 X10^9)(5X10^{-3})}{2^2}  = 1.124 X10^7 N/C

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field is 1.124 X 10⁷ N/C
