Two Factors That Affect How Much Gravity Is on an Object. Gravity is the force that gives weight to objects and causes them to fall to the ground when dropped. Two major factors, mass and distance, affect the strength of gravitational force on an object.
I feel like the answer would be B. The chair pushes down on the floor becuase the question says when you sit in a chair, your body exerts a downward force on the chair so it would be pushing downward meaning that the chair would also go down making it push onto the floor.
I think the question meant to say net force on the box. Since force is a vector, the direction matters. 20N left is negated completely by the 50N right, which means the net force is 50N-20N to the right, 30N.
Great Question! I happened to be a physics nerd!
Answer:
C. Two hydrogen nuclei, each with only one proton, fuse to form deuterium, a form of hydrogen with one proton.
MAKE SURE TO SEE EXPLANATION!
Explanation:
In the core of the Sun, or any other main sequence star, there is no single fusion process. Instead, complex sequences of processes occur to make helium nuclei from hydrogen nuclei (i.e. protons). The proton-proton chain provides for the majority of energy generation in stars with masses less than that of the Sun. One difficulty in creating a helium nucleus (two protons and two neutrons) is that there are only protons to begin with. Some protons must be turned into neutrons in some way. The first step is to combine two protons to form a deuterium nucleus (also known as a deuteron). That's a hefty hydrogen nucleus with one proton and one neutron. Such a proton-proton contact is highly unlikely, and it has never been detected in a laboratory. Fortunately, the Sun's core is incredibly hot and dense, with an incredible number of protons packed inside. Even a low likelihood event will occur every now and again. Along with each deuteron, a positron (an "anti-electron") and a neutrino are created. Because the Sun's core is plasma, there are a lot of free electrons, thus the positron doesn't live long until it and an electron collide and annihilate, resulting in gamma radiation. The deuteron then interacts with a proton to form a helium 3 nucleus. That is a high-probability interaction, and it occurs swiftly. Two helium 3 nuclei join in the third phase to generate a helium 4 ("regular" helium) nucleus and a proton. Branch I of the proton-proton (p-p) chain is responsible for this. Another stage is required because reactions between helium 3 and helium 4 nuclei are possible. There are two conceivable reactions (named Branch II and Branch III), and I'll save you the gory details. It gets much more complicated since theoretical calculations indicate that a reaction between a helium 3 nucleus and a proton is feasible — Branch IV. This reaction has an incredibly low likelihood of occurring, far lower than the Branch I reaction, thus it must be exceedingly rare. The Carbon-Nitrogen-Oxygen (CNO) Cycle is another method for reducing hydrogen to helium. It does not generate much energy in the Sun, but it is the principal energy generation mechanism in larger stars.
Answer:
A. Zero
Explanation:
Given data,
The charge of the test charge, q = 1 C
The distance the charge moved against the filed of intensity, x = 30 cm
= 0.3 m
The electric field intensity, E = 50 N/C
The energy stored in the charge at 0.3 m is given by the formula,
V = k q/r
Where,
= 9 x 10⁹ Nm²C⁻²
The charge is moved from the potential V₁ to V₂ at 30 cm
Substituting the given values in the above equation
V₁ = 9 x 10⁹ x 30 / 0.3
= 1.5 x 10¹² J
And,
V₂ = 1.5 x 10¹² J
The energy stored in it is,
W = V₂ - V₁
= 0
Hence, the energy stored in the charge is, W = 0
