Both gravity helps you stay onto the earth and not float away. Friction also helps you not slip and slide and when two or more forces act upon each other.

What mass of a material with density rho is required to make a hollow spherical shell having inner radius r1 and outer radius r2
Margarita [4]

Answer:

m=\rho\times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times(r_2^3-r_1^3  )

Explanation:

  • We have to make a hollow sphere of inner  radius r_1 and outer radius r_2.

Then the mass of the material required to make such a sphere would be calculated as:

Total volume of the spherical shell:

V_t=\frac{4}{3} \pi.r_2^3

And the volume of the hollow space in the sphere:

V_h=\frac{4}{3} \pi.r_1^3

Therefore the net volume of material required to make the sphere:

V=V_t-V_h

V=\frac{4}{3} \pi(r_2^3-r_1^3)

  • Now let the density of the of the material be \rho.

<u>Then the mass of the material used is:</u>

m=\rho.V

m=\rho\times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times(r_2^3-r_1^3  )

A parallel-plate capacitor in air has a plate separation of 1.25 cm and a plate area of 25.0 cm2. The plates are charged to a po
Archy [21]

Answer:

(a) Since net charge remains same,after immersion Q is same

(b) I. 14.56pF ii. 3.05V

(c) ΔU = 5.204nJ

Explanation:

a)

C = kεA/d

k=1 for air

ε is 8.85x10-12F/m

A = .0025m2

d = .125m

C = 8.85x10-12x.0025/.125 = 1.77x10-13F = 0.177pF

Q = CV = .177pF * 244V = 43.188pC

Since net charge remains same,after immersion Q is same

b)

C = kεA/d, for distilled water k is approx. 80

Cwater = Cair x k

=0.177pF x 80 = 14.16pF

Q is same and C is changed V=Q/c holds. where Q is still 43.188pC and C is now 14.16pF, so V = 43.188pC/14.16pF = 3.05V

c) Change in energy: ΔU = Uwater - Uair

Uwater = Q2/2C = (43.188)2/2x.177pF = 5.27nJ

Uair = Q2/2C = (43.188)2/2x14.16pF = 0.066nJ

ΔU = 5.204nJ

What is the highest degrees above the horizon the moon ever gets during the year in the Yakima Valley ?
Ivahew [28]

The trickiest part of this problem was making sure where the Yakima Valley is.
OK so it's generally around the city of the same name in Washington State.

Just for a place to work with, I picked the Yakima Valley Junior College, at the
corner of W Nob Hill Blvd and S16th Ave in Yakima.  The latitude in the middle
of that intersection is 46.585° North.  <u>That's</u> the number we need.

Here's how I would do it:

-- The altitude of the due-south point on the celestial equator is always
(90° - latitude), no matter what the date or time of day.

-- The highest above the celestial equator that the ecliptic ever gets
is about 23.5°. 

-- The mean inclination of the moon's orbit to the ecliptic is 5.14°, so
that's the highest above the ecliptic that the moon can ever appear
in the sky.

This sets the limit of the highest in the sky that the moon can ever appear.

90° - 46.585° + 23.5° + 5.14° = 72.1° above the horizon .

That doesn't happen regularly.  It would depend on everything coming
together at the same time ... the moon happens to be at the point in its
orbit that's 5.14° above ==> (the point on the ecliptic that's 23.5° above
the celestial equator).

Depending on the time of year, that can be any time of the day or night.

The most striking combination is at midnight, within a day or two of the
Winter solstice, when the moon happens to be full.

In general, the Full Moon closest to the Winter solstice is going to be
the moon highest in the sky.  Then it's going to be somewhere near
67° above the horizon at midnight.
