Answer pls!!
Greeley [361]

Explanation:

q= n e

6 × 10^-11 = n (1.6 × 10^-19)

n = 6×10^-11 / 1.6 × 10^-19

n= 3.75 × 10⁸ electrons

1. When you have different masses for each sphere, how does the force that the larger mass sphere exerts on the smaller mass sph
aleksandrvk [35]

1) The forces are equal (Newton's third law of motion)

2) The force between the spheres will quadruple

3) The force of gravity exerted by the notebook on you is negligible

Explanation:

1)

In this part of the problem, we want to compare the gravitational force exerted by the larger mass sphere on the smaller mass sphere to the force exerted by the smaller mass sphere to the larger mass sphere.

We can do this by using Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force (called </em><em>action</em><em>) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called </em><em>reaction</em><em>) on object A"</em>

In this problem, we can identify the larger mass sphere as object A and the smaller mass sphere as object B. This law tells us that the two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction: therefore, the gravitational force exerted by the larger mass sphere on the smaller mass sphere is equal to the force exerted by the smaller mass sphere to the larger mass sphere.

2)

The magnitude of the gravitational force between the two spheres is given by

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m_1, m_2 are the masses of the two spheres

r is the separation between the two spheres

In this problem, we are asked to find what happens when the distance between the spheres is halved, therefore when the new distance is

r'=\frac{r}{2}

Substituting into the equation, we find

F'=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r'^2}=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{(r/2)^2}=4(\frac{Gm_1 m_2}{r^2})=4F

So, the force between the two spheres will quadruple.

3)

We can give an estimate for the gravitational force exerted by your notebook on you.

As we said, the magnitude of the gravitational force is

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

Where:

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

Let's estimate the following:

m_1 = 60 kg is your mass

m_2 = 2 kg is the mass of the notebook

r=1 m, assuming the notebook is at 1 metre from you

Substituting,

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(60)(2)}{1^2}=8.0\cdot 10^{-9} N

We see that this force has an extremely small value: therefore, it is almost negligible in daily life, where other much stronger forces act on you.

The generation of a magnetic field by an electric current is___ .
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Electromagnetic induction

Explanation:

The process of generating electric current with a magnetic field. It occurs whenever a magnetic field and an electric conductor move relative to one another so the conductor crosses lines of force in the magnetic field.
