Answer:
F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³
Explanation:
The force dF on the mass element dm of the ring due to the sphere of mass, m at a distance L from the mass element is
dF = GmdM/L²
Since the ring is symmetrical, the vertical components of this force cancel out leaving the horizontal components to add.
So, the horizontal components add from two symmetrically opposite mass elements dM,
Thus, the horizontal component of the force is
dF' = dFcosФ where Ф is the angle between L and the x axis
dF' = GmdMcosФ/L²
L² = a² + x² where a = radius of ring and x = distance of axis of ring from sphere.
L = √(a² + x²)
cosФ = x/L
dF' = GmdMcosФ/L²
dF' = GmdMx/L³
dF' = GmdMx/[√(a² + x²)]³
Integrating both sides we have
∫dF' = ∫GmdMx/[√(a² + x²)]³
∫dF' = Gm∫dMx/[√(a² + x²)]³ ∫dM = M
F = GmMx/[√(a² + x²)]³
F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³
So, the force due to the sphere of mass m is
F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³
Answer: 2 seconds
Explanation:
Given that,
Time (T) = ?
Charge (Q) = 4 coulombs
current (I) = 2 Amps
Since charge depends on the amount of current flowing through the wire in a given time, hence
Charge = Current x Time
Q = IT
4 coulombs = 2 Amps x Time
Time = 4 coulombs / 2 Amps
Time = 2 seconds
Thus, it takes 2 seconds for the current to flow through the wire

they will choose the path that has not resistance
Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.
Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.
K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of rock, m = 2.35-kg
It was released from rest at a height of 21.4 m.
(a) The kinetic energy is given by : 
As the rock was at rest initially, it means, its kinetic energy is equal to 0.
(b) The gravitational potential energy is given by : 
It can be calculated as :

(c) The mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic and potential energy such that,
M = 0 J + 492.84 J
M = 492.84 J
Hence, this is the required solution.
