The formula we will be using is;F = G m1 m2 / r^2
F earth = 308N
F moon = G me m2 / (81.3 * 0.27^2 RE^2) = 1/5.927 G me m2 / RE^2 = F earth / 5.927 = 52 N is the force of the earth
So the answer in this question is 52 N.

Why did thomson’s results from experimenting with cathode rays cause a big change in scientific thought about atoms?

natima [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Before Thomson's discovery, atoms were believed according to the "Dalton's atomic theory" to be the smallest indivisible particle of any matter. This makes atoms the smallest unit of a matter.

Thomson in 1897, used the discharge tube to discover cathode rays which are today called electrons.

The discovery of electrons provided more light into the structure and nature of atoms. Atoms were now being seen in a different light as particles that are made up of other smaller sized particles.

Thomson through his experiment was able determine perfectly well the nature of the rays he saw emanating from the cathode. One of his findings shows that the rays are negatively charged and are repelled by negative charges.

The discovery of electrons further led to more works on the atom and other particles were discovered. Atoms were no longer seen as indivisible or the smallest particles of matter.

Two copper rods are separated by a small gap at B. Rod AB has a diameter of 200mm and rod BC has a diameter of 150mm. Find the f

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

A)3.8196 * $10^{9}$ Newtons B) 2.153 * $10^{9}$ Newtons

Explanation:

Force = Pressure * Area.

Pressure is given as 120GPa

Area = Cross Sectional Area of Rod = Area Of A circle = π $R^{2}$ .

Area Expansivity β = $\frac{Change in Area}{Original Area * Temperature Rise}$

Area Expansivity β = 2α

α = 16.9x10-6/ ° C.

Radius of Rod AB = Half 0f Diameter, 200mm = $\frac{0.2m}{2}$ = 0.1 m

Radius of Rod BC = Half Of Diameter, 150mm = $\frac{0.15}{2}$ = 0.075 m.

Note: To convert from millimeter to meter you divide by 1000.

Area of Rod AB = π * $0.1^{2}$ = 0.0314 $m^{2}$

Area of Rod BC = π * $0.075^{2}$ = 0.0177 $m^{2}$ .

Change in Area = 2α * Original Area * Temperature Rise. Therefore for

Rod AB = 2 * 16.9* $10^{-6}$ * 0.0314 * 30 = 3.183 * $10^{-5}$ $m^{2}$ .

For Rod BC we have = 2 * 16.9* $10^{-6}$ * 0.0177 * 30 = 1.794∈-5 $m^{2}$ .

The forces on each rods will be given by.

Force AB = Pressure * Area of Rod AB

= 120GPa * 3.183 * $10^{-5}$ gives 3.8196 * $10^{9}$ Newtons.

Force BC = Pressure * Area of Rod BC

= 120GPa * 1.794 * $10^{-5}$ gives 2.153 * $10^{9}$ Newtons
