The gravity model predicts that the optimal location of a service is

Physics
1 answer:
charle [14.2K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The gravity model predicts that the optimal location of a service is directly related to the population of people in a given location and inversely related to the distance people must cover in search of it.

An optimal service is directly dependent on the size of people in that given area . The larger the people the larger the customers and vice versa.

If the place is far then less people will patronize because people won’t be willing to go through such stress to get such goods or services.

22. State any three features of the electroscope.​
MatroZZZ [7]
-1- was created in the 1600 by william gilbert
-2-When the charge is positive, electrons in the metal of the electroscope are attracted to the charge and move upward out of the leaves. This results in the leaves to have a temporary positive charge and because like charges repel, the leaves separate. When the charge is removed, the electrons return to their original positions and the leaves relax
3-

An electroscope is made up of a metal detector knob on top which is connected to a pair of metal leaves hanging from the bottom of the connecting rod. When no charge is present the metals leaves hang loosely downward. But, when an object with a charge is brought near an electroscope, one of the two things can happen.

A kettle is rated at 1 kW, 220 V. Calculate the working resistance of the kettle.
Anna [14]

Explanation:

Power of electric kettle, P = 1 kW

Voltage, V = 220 V

(a) Electric power is given by the formula as follows :

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

R is resistance

R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(220)^2}{10^3}\\\\R=48.4\ \Omega

(b) When connected to a 220 V supply, it takes 3 minutes for the water in the kettle to reach boiling point.

Energy supplied is given by :

E=P\times t

P is power, P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

E=\dfrac{V^2}{R}t\\\\E=\dfrac{(220)^2}{48.4}\times 180\\\\E=180000\ J\\\\E=180\ kJ

a sphere of diameter 6•0cm is moulded into a thin uniform wire of diameter 0•2mm.calculate the length of the wire in metres​
Scilla [17]

The length of the wire is 36 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given, Diameter of sphere = 6 cm

We know that, radius can be found by taking the half in the diameter value. So,

       \text { sphere radius, } R=\frac{D}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3 \mathrm{cm}=3 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{m}

Similarly,

      \text { wire radius, } r=\frac{0.2}{2}=0.1 \mathrm{mm}=1 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{m}

We know the below formulas,

          \text {volume of sphere}=\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}

          \text {volume of wire}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l

When equating both the equations, we can find length of wire as below, where \pi=\frac{22}{7}

          \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l

         \frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times\left(3 \times 10^{-2}\right)^{3}=\frac{22}{7} \times\left(1 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{2} \times l

The \pi value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

           \frac{4}{3} \times 27 \times 10^{-6}=10^{-6} \times l

The 10^{-6} value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

           l=4 \times 9=36 m
