Two planets have the same surface gravity, but planet b has twice the radius of planet

Physics

The formula for the acceleration due to gravity is:

a = Gm/r²
where
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.6726 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²
m is the mass of planet
r is the radius of planet

So, if they have the same a:

m₁/r₁² = m₂/r₂²
So, if m₁ = m and r₂ = 2r₁,
m/r₁² = m₂/(2r₁)²
m₂ = 4m

<em>Thus, the answer is D.</em>

Is a quantum of light or a single packet/particle of light at a given wavelength.
Yanka [14]

Photon is a quantum of light or a single packet/particle of light at a given wavelength.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that light has dual nature of wave as well as particles. Light waves can behave in wave nature as well as in particle nature depending upon the situation. So the light waves are assumed in different views to easily understand the nature of light waves.

There are several models proposed to simplify the nature of light. Among the several assumptions, one of the most prominent observations are that light waves or quantum of light are termed as photons which are made up of single packet/particles of light in a given wavelength.

Answer:

The magnitude of the angular acceleration ∝ = \frac{rxF}{2.8[tex]r^{2}}[/tex]

Explanation:

The angular acceleration ∝ is equal to the torque (radius multiplied by force) divided by the mass times the square of the radius. The magnitude of angular acceleration ∝ will have the equation above but we have to replace the mass in the equation by 2.8kg as stated.

The change in the angle of circular motion is analogous to ____ in linear motion
snow_lady [41]

The change in the angle of circular motion is analogous to <u>linear velocity</u> in linear motion

<u>Explanation:</u>

We define angular velocity ω as the rate of change of an angle. The greater the rotation angle in a given amount of time, the greater the angular velocity. angular velocity refers to how fast an object rotates or revolves relative to another point, i.e. how fast the angular position or orientation of an object changes with time.

The units for angular velocity are radians per second (rad/s). Angular velocity ω is analogous to linear velocity v. Linear velocity is the measure of “the rate of change of displacement with respect to time when the object moves along a straight path.” It is a vector quantity.
