Answer:

Explanation:

According to Newton's laws of gravitation force of attraction is given by

F = GMm/R²

G = 6.67 X 10⁻¹¹

,M = 2.5 Kg ,

m = 2.5 Kg ,

R = .14 m

=

F = 6.67 X 10⁻¹¹ X 2.5 X 2.5 / 0.14²

= 2126.9 X 10 ⁻¹¹ N.

Answer:

2.13 x 10^-8 N

Explanation:

m1 = 2.5 kg

m2 = 2.5 kg

r = 0.14 m

According to the Newton's law of gravitation, the force of attraction between them is given by

F = G m1 x m2 / r^2

Where, G is the Universal Gravitational constant and the value of G

is 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

So, the force between the text books is

F = (6.67 x 10^-11 x 2.5 x 2.5) / (0.14 x 0.14)

F = 2.13 x 10^-8 N

Define temperature<br> define absolute zero
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Temperature is a measure of the average energy of molecular motion in a substance. In everyday usage, temperature indicates a measure of how hot or cold an object is. Temperature is an important parameter in chemistry. When a substance changes from solid to liquid, it is because there was in increase in the temperature of the material. Chemical reactions usually proceed faster if the temperature is increased.

Absolute zero is the lowest temperature in Kelvin which all motion stops. Absolute zero is called 0 Kelvin (0 K), and it is equivalent to –273.15°C or –459.67°F.

Please can someone solve this physics question with a good explenation.

Answer:

The coefficient of dynamic friction is 0.025.

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed after the push is 'v' as seen in the graph.

Final speed of the stone is 0 m/s as it comes to rest.

Total distance traveled is, D=29.8\ m

Total time taken is, t_{total}=17.5\ s

Time interval for deceleration is 3.5 to 17.5 s which is for 14 s.

Now, average speed of the stone is given as:

v_{avg}=\frac{D}{t_{total}}=\frac{29.8}{17.5}=1.703\ m/s

Now, we know that, average speed can also be expressed as:

v_{avg}=\frac{v_i+v_f}{2}\\1.703=\frac{v+0}{2}\\v=2\times 1.703=3.41\ m/s

Now, from the graph, the vertical height of the triangles is, v=3.41\ m/s

The deceleration is given as the slope of the line from time 3.5 s to 17.5 s.

Therefore, deceleration is:

a=\frac{\textrm{Vertical height}}{\textrm{Time interval}}\\a=\frac{v-0}{17.5-3.5}\\a=\frac{3.41}{14}=0.244\ m/s^2

Frictional force is the net force acting on the stone. Frictional force is given as:

f=\mu_dN\\Where, \mu_d\rightarrow \textrm{coefficient of dynamic friction}\\N\rightarrow \textrm{Normal force}\\N=mg\\\therefore f=\mu_dmg

Now, from Newton's second law, net force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

Therefore,

\mu_dmg=ma\\\mu_d=\frac{a}{g}

Plug in 0.244 for 'a' and 9.8 for 'g'. This gives,

\mu_d=\frac{a}{g}=\frac{0.244}{9.8}=0.025

Therefore, the coefficient of dynamic friction is 0.025.

Which of the following lies in the ecliptic plane?
babymother [125]
<h2>Answer: Earth's orbital path around the Sun</h2><h2></h2>

The <u>Ecliptic</u> refers to the orbit of the Earth around the Sun. Therefore, <u>for an observer on Earth it will be the apparent path of the Sun in the sky during the year, with respect to the "immobile background" of the other stars.</u>

<u />

It should be noted that the ecliptic plane (which is the same orbital plane of the Earth in its translation movement) is tilted with respect to the equator of the planet about 23\° approximately. This is due to the inclination of the Earth's axis.

Hence, the correct option is Earth's orbital path around the Sun.
