The gravitational force between the Earth and the satellite (its "weight") is inversely proportional to the distance between the centers of both objects.
On the surface, their centers are separated by 1 Earth radius.
12,000 miles above the surface, they're separated by 4 Earth radiii.
(4/1) = 4
So after the move, the satellite's weight is (1/4²) = 1/16 of its surface weight.
(321 lb) / (16) = (20 and a hair) lb
The correct choice from the given list is " <em>>20 lb "</em> .
Density
is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume, such as m3.
Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that
substance per unit volume. It is a property that can be used to describe a
substance.<span> </span><span>It has standard units of
kg/m^3 or g/mL.
So, the best answer is option C.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
1) True. The stored energy (U) is proportional to the electric field strength (E). The electric field strength decreases when a dielectric is introduced hence inserting a dielectric decreases U.
2) False. From the formula 
, capacitance is inversely proportional to distance hence if the distance is doubled, capacitance decreases.
3) False. As the distance between the electric field and the object increases, its electric field decreases.
4) False. If a dielectric is inserted, the plates are further separated. Q stays the same.
5) True. The electric field strength decreases when a dielectric is introduced and capacitance is inversely proportional to electric field hence Inserting a dielectric increases C
6) True. If a dielectric is inserted, the plates are further separated. Q stays the same.
7) True. When the distance is doubled, U increases
Answer:
All of these answers are dependent upon the specific scenario, but here are some general answers.
1. An object with a greater height will have more potential energy.
2. Potential energy can be changed into kinetic energy as an object falls. It loses height (potential energy) and gains speed (kinetic energy).
3. Depends on what scenario your class had.
Answer:
Intermolecular forces
Explanation:
The force of attractions that act between molecules are called intermolecular forces.
Their nature is electromagnetic, this means that they are just an expression of the electromagnetic force.
One example of intermolecular force is the ionic bond: this type of bond occurs when there are two ions, one positively charged and the other one negatively charged, and they are attracted by each other due to the electrostatic force, which therefore creates a bond between them.
Other types of intermolecular forces include:
Hydrogen bond
Ion-dipole forces
Van der Waals forces
The strength of these intermolecular forces determine the state of the substance. In fact, in solids, these forces are very strong, so that the molecules are strongly bond to each other and they cannot move freely, but only vibrate about their fixed position. On the other hand, in gases, these forces are very weak, therefore the molecules are able to move freely away from each other.
