Answer: Jupiter gravitational attraction is stronger than the Earth's gravitation attraction. Correct answer is option(3).

Explanation:

Force of gravitational attraction of the Earth on object with mass m at distance r from its center.

F_e=G\frac{M_em}{r^2}

Force of gravitational attraction of the Jupiter on object with mass m at distance r from its center.

F_j=G\frac{M_jm}{r^2}

M_j=317\times M_e (given)

F_j=G\frac{317\times M_em}{r^2}=317\times F_e

The gravitation force exerted by Jupiter will be 317 times of the gravitation force exerted by planet earth.

Hence, Jupiter gravitational attraction is stronger than the Earth's gravitation attraction.

A person takes a trip, driving with a constant speed of 94.5 km/h except for a 22.0 min rest stop. If the person's average speed
qwelly [4]
From the average speed you can fix an equation:

Average speed = distance / time

You know the average speed = 65.1 kg / h, then

65.1 = distance / total time,

where total time is the time traveling plus 22.0 minutes

Call t the time treavelling and pass 22 minutes to hours:

65.1 = distance / [t + 22/60] ==> distance = [t + 22/60]*65.1

 
From the constant speed, you can fix a second equation

Constant speed = distance / time traveling

94.5 = distance / t ==> distance = 94.5 * t

The distance is the same in both equations, then you have:

[t +22/60] * 65.1 = 94.5 t

Now you can solve for t.

65.1t + 22*65.1/60 = 94.5t

94.5t - 65.1t = 22*65.1/60

29.4t = 23.87

t = 23.87 / 29.4

t  = 0.812 hours

distance = 94.5 km/h * 0.812 h = 76.7 km

Answers: 1) 0.81 hours, 2) 76.7 km

An electrician finds that a 1 m length of a certain type of wire has a resistance of 0.24 Ω . What is the total resistance of th
zlopas [31]

The resistance of a given conductor depends on its electrical resistivity (\rho), its length(L) and its cross-sectional area (A), as follows:

R=\frac{\rho L}{A}

In this case, we have L'=138L, \rho'=\rho and A'=A. So, the total resistance of the wire with length of 138m is:

R'=\frac{\rho' L'}{A'}\\R'=\frac{\rho 138L}{A}\\R'=138\frac{\rho L}{A}\\R'=138R\\R'=138(0.24\Omega)\\R'=33.12\Omega

To avoid breakdown of the capacitors, the maximum potential difference to which any of them can be individually charged is 125 V
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The maximum energy stored in the combination is 0.0466Joules

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Three capacitors C1-11.7 μF, C2 21.0 μF, and C3 = 28.8 μF are connected in series. To avoid breakdown of the capacitors, the maximum potential difference to which any of them can be individually charged is 125 V. Determine the maximum energy stored in the series combination.

Energy stored in a capacitor is expressed as E = 1/2CtV² where

Ct is the total effective capacitance

V is the supply voltage

Since the capacitors are connected in series.

1/Ct = 1/C1+1/C2+1/C3

Given C1 = 11.7 μF, C2 = 21.0 μF, and C3 = 28.8 μF

1/Ct = 1/11.7 + 1/21.0 + 1/28.8

1/Ct = 0.0855+0.0476+0.0347

1/Ct = 0.1678

Ct = 1/0.1678

Ct = 5.96μF

Ct = 5.96×10^-6F

Since V = 125V

E = 1/2(5.96×10^-6)(125)²

E = 0.0466Joules

A radio signal has a frequency of 1.023 x 108 HZ. If the speed of the signal in air is 2.997 x 108m/s, what is the wavelength of
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

2.93 m  (which agrees with answer "C" on the list)

Explanation:

Recall that the speed of the wave equals the product of the wave's length times its frequency. Therefore, the wavelength is going to be the quotient of the speed of the signal divided its frequency:

Wavelength = 2.997  10^8 / 1.023  10^8 =  2.93 m
