<u>Answer: The model is described by :</u>

The strength of the field increases as you get closer to Earth, as shown by the smaller spaces between the circles.

Explanation :

According to universal gravitational law, the force acting in the universe between two objects is given by :

$F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

It is clear that the gravitational force depends directly on the product of masses and inversely on the square of the distance between them.

The given image shows a model of the gravitational field around Earth. The arrows in the image show the direction of the force. Gravitational field depends on the position of objects.

As we move closer to the earth, the force increases and hence the field increase.

So, the correct option is (D) " The strength of the field increases as you get closer to Earth, as shown by the smaller spaces between the circles ".

Answer:

a). $\frac{\dot{W}}{m}= 311$ kJ/kg

b). $\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=0.9113$ kJ/kg-K

Explanation:

a). The energy rate balance equation in the control volume is given by

$\dot{Q} - \dot{W}+m(h_{1}-h_{2})=0$

$\frac{\dot{Q}}{m} = \frac{\dot{W}}{m}+m(h_{1}-h_{2})$

$\frac{\dot{W}}{m}= \frac{\dot{Q}}{m}+c_{p}(T_{1}-T_{2})$

$\frac{\dot{W}}{m}= -30+1.1(980-670)$

$\frac{\dot{W}}{m}= 311$ kJ/kg

b). Entropy produced from the entropy balance equation in a control volume is given by

$\frac{\dot{Q}}{T_{boundary}}+\dot{m}(s_{1}-s_{2})+\dot{\sigma _{gen}}=0$

$\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=\frac{-\frac{\dot{Q}}{m}}{T_{boundary}}+(s_{2}-s_{1})$

$\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=\frac{-\frac{\dot{Q}}{m}}{T_{boundary}}+c_{p}ln\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}-R.ln\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}}$

$\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=\frac{-30}{315}+1.1ln\frac{670}{980}-0.287.ln\frac{100}{400}$

$\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=0.0952+0.4183+0.3978$

$\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=0.9113$ kJ/kg-K

a force vector f has a magnitude of 12.0 n. it is oriented 60° to the left of the y ax what are its x and y components?

Arte-miy333 [17]

The force vector that has a magnitude of 12.0 N. and is oriented 60° to the left of the (y) has the followings components:

v(x) =6 N
v(y) = 10.39 N

To solve this exercise the formulas and procedures we will use are:

v(x) = v * cosine (angle)
v(y) = v * sine (angle).

Where:

v= magnitude of the vector
v(x) = component of the vector on the (x) axis
v(y) = component of the vector on the (y) axis
angle = angle

Information about the problem:

angle = 60º
v = 12.0 N
v(x)= ?
v(y)= ?

Applying the formula of the component of the vector in the (x) axis we have:

v(x) = v * cosine (angle).

v(x) = 12.0 N * cosine (60º)

v(x) =6 N

Applying the formula of the component of the vector in the (y) axis we have:

v(y) = v * sine (angle)

v(y) = 12.0 N * sine (60º)

v(y) = 10.39 N

<h3>What is a vector?</h3>

It can be said to be a straight line described by a point (a) and (b) that has direction and sense.

We want to find how much charge is on the electrons in a nickel coin. Follow this method. A nickel coin has a mass of about 4.2

monitta

Answer:

The number of atoms is $N = 4.37*10^{22} \ atoms$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of coin is $m_n = 4.2g$

Number of atom in one mole = $n =6.02*10^{23} \ atoms$

Molar mass of nickel $M = 57.8g$

Now the relation to obtain the number of atom in the nickel coin is

$N = \frac{Mass \ of Nickel\ coin}{Molar \ mass\ of nickel } * No\ of\atoms \ in \ \ one\ mole\ of\ nickel$

$= \frac{4.2}{57.8}* 6.02*10^{23}$

$=4.37 *10^{22} atoms$
