Summarize Newton’s First Law

1 answer:

8 0

Newton's first law is "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force."

Basically it means an object won't move unless something moves it, and an object won't stop moving unless something stops it.

Choose all facts that increase the orbital velocity of a vessel around planet B. Bigger mass of planet B smaller mass of planet

telo118 [61]

Answer:

- Bigger mass of planet B

- orbiting closer to planet B

Explanation:

The orbital velocity of the vessel around the planet can be found by equalizing the force of gravity between the vessel and the planet and the centripetal force:

$G\frac{mM}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

m is the mass of the vessel

M is the mass of the planet

r is the distance between the vessel and the centre of the planet

v is the orbital velocity of the vessel

Re-arranging the formula, we find an expression for v:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$

We see that:

- the bigger the mass of the planet, M, the bigger the velocity

- the bigger the distance between the vessel and the planet, r, the smaller the velocity

So, the correct choices that increase the orbital velocity are:

- Bigger mass of planet B

- orbiting closer to planet B

Each plate of a parallel‑plate capacitor is a square of side 4.19 cm, 4.19 cm, and the plates are separated by 0.407 mm. 0.407 m

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The electric field strength inside the capacitor is 49880.77 N/C.

Explanation:

Given:

Side length of the capacitor plate (a) = 4.19 cm = 0.0419 m

Separation between the plates (d) = 0.407 mm = $0.407\times 10^{-3}\ m$

Energy stored in the capacitor (U) = $7.87\ nJ=7.87\times 10^{-9}\ J$

Assuming the medium to be air.

So, permittivity of space (ε) = $8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$

Area of the square plates is given as:

$A=a^2=(0.0419\ m)^2=1.75561\times 10^{-3}\ m^2$

Capacitance of the capacitor is given as:

$C=\dfrac{\epsilon A}{d}\\\\C=\frac{8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m\times 1.75561\times 10^{-3}\ m^2 }{0.407\times 10^{-3}\ m}\\\\C=3.819\times 10^{-11}\ F$
