C. easier to build than a refracting telescope

Big mirrors used in reflecting telescopes are easier and cheaper to make than big lenses which would cost more because of the quality of glass required to make refracting telescopes

Consider two identical objects of mass m = 0.250 kg and charge q = 4.00 μC. The first charge is held in place at the origin of a
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a = 640 m/s²

Explanation:

From work-kinetic energy principles,

The net force acting on the second object is the gravitational force and the electric force due to the first object.

So, the gravitational force on the mass is F₁ = Gm₁m₂/r² since m₁ = m₂ = m, U = -Gm²/r²

Also, the electric force on the charge is F₂ = kq₁q₂/r² since q₁ = q₂ = q, U = kq²/r²

The net Force F = ma

So, -F₁ + F₂ = F     (F₁ is negative since it is an attractive force in the negative x -direction and F₂ is positive since it is a repulsive force in the positive x- direction)

-Gm²/r² + kq²/r² = ma

ma = -Gm²/r² + kq²/r²

a = (-Gm²/r² + kq²/r²)/m

a = (-G + kq²/m²)m/r²

Since m = 0.250 kg, q = 4.00 μC = 4.00 × 10⁻⁶ C, r = 3.00 cm = 3.00 × 10⁻² m, G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg², k = 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C² and a = acceleration of second mass.

Substituting the variables into the equation, we have

a = (m/r²)(-G + k(q/m)²)]

a = (0.250 kg/{3.00 × 10⁻² m}²)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(4.00 × 10⁻⁶ C/0.250 kg)²)

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(16 × 10⁻⁶ C/kg)²)]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²(256 × 10⁻¹² C²/kg²)]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(-6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg² + 2304 × 10⁻³ Nm²/kg²  ]

a = (0.250 kg/9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m)(2.304 Nm²/kg²)

a = 0.576 Nm²/kg /9.00 × 10⁻⁴ m²

a = 0.064 × 10⁴N/kg

a = 64 × 10 N/kg)

a = 640 m/s²

En un m.A.S. La amplitud tiene un valor de 10 centimetros y el periodo es de 2 segundos calcular el valor de la velocidad de 0.8
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

v1=18.46m/s

v2=29.8cm/s

Explanation:

We know that

A=10cm\\T=2s

the equation of the motion is

x=Acos(\omega t)\\

we can calculate w by using

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{2}=\pi

Hence, we have that

x=10cm*cos(\pi t)\\

the speed will be

v=-\omega*Asin(\omega t)\\|v(0.8)|=|\pi*10cm*sin(\pi *0.8)|=18.46\frac{cm}{s}\\|v(1.4)|=|\pi*10cm*sin(\pi *1.4)|=29.8\frac{cm}{s}

hope this helps!

FromTheMoon [43]
<span>The law of conservation of matter and energy relates to the cycles in nature, and by that it is also applied to rocks and other materials.  All of the rock in the Earth is recycled and accounted for during the rock cycle. Rocks experience physical change, the composition of the material stays the same, it may just change how it looks and chemical changes occur (the suubstance undergoes a chemical reaction that changes the actual makeup of the substance).</span>
