What Kepler's constant ? ? ! ?

The only constant in Kepler's laws is in the third one, where it says something to the
effect that (square of a body's period) / (cube of its distance from the central body)
is a constant.

That means it's a constant for multiple little ones orbiting the same central body.
But it's not the same constant for other central bodies.

It's one constant for the planets, asteroids, and comets orbiting the sun.

It's a different constant for the moon, TV satellites, weather satellites,
and military satellites orbiting the Earth.

According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, which statements are true?

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Before we solve this, we should know this fact:

According to Newton's Law of Gravitation, the force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The force acts along the line joining the centres of the two objects. It can be shown by this:

$F ∝ \frac{Mm}{ {d}^{2} }$

Now, let us check all the options.

A. As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us decreases.

This statement is true.

The force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of distance from the centre of the earth. If, we go up the surface of the earth, the distance from the centre of the earth increases and hence the value of force of gravity decrease. So, force of gravity decreases with altitude.

B. As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is false.

We have already got the result in option A. that the force of gravity decreases with altitude. It never increases with altitude.

C. As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us decreases.

This statement is false.

The force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the masses. So, if increase our mass, then the force of gravity will also increase and if we decrease our mass, then the force of gravity decreases.

D. As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is true.

As mentioned earlier in option C., the force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the earth and another object. So, as we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

E. As we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is true.

Here, we have to consider a different formula. According to Newton's Second Law,

F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

In other words,

F ∝ a, i.e., force is directly proportional to acceleration.

We know, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an body within a time period.

So, if speed is increased, then acceleration will also be greater, which results in the increase of force. So, as we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

Answers:

A: As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us decreases.

D: As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

E: As we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

Hope you could understand.

If you have any query, feel free to ask.

a. 46 m/s east

The jet here is moving with a uniform accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation to find its velocity:

$v=u+at$

where

v is the velocity calculated at time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

The jet in the problem has, taking east as positive direction:

u = +16 m/s is the initial velocity

$a=+3 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

Substituting t = 10 s, we find the final velocity of the jet:

$v=16 + (3)(10)=46 m/s$

And since the result is positive, the direction is east.

b. 310 m

The displacement of the jet can be found using another suvat equation

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s is the displacement

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the jet in this problem,

u = +16 m/s is the initial velocity

$a=+3 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

t = 10 s is the time

Substituting into the equation,

$s=(16)(10)+\frac{1}{2}(3)(10)^2=310 m$

Near the surface of Earth an electric field points radially downward and has a magnitude of approximately 100 N/C. What charge (

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$q=2.997\times 10^{-4}$ C

Sign-Negative

Explanation:

We are given that

Electric field = $E=100NC^{-1}$ (Radially downward)

Acceleration= $0.19 ms^{-2}$ (Upward)

Mass of charge=3 g= $3\times 10^{-3}$ kg

1kg=1000g

We have to find the magnitude and sign of charge would have to be placed on a penny .

By newton's second law

$\sum F_y=ma$

$\sum F_y=qE-mg$

Substitute the values then we get

$qE-mg=ma$

Substitute the values then we get

$q(100)-3\times 10^{-3}(9.8)=3\times 10^{-3}(0.19)$

$100q-29.4\times 10^{-3}=0.57\times 10^{-3}$

$100q=0.57\times 10^{-3}+29.4\times 10^{-3}=29.97\times 10^{-3}$

$q=\frac{29.97\times 10^{-3}}{100}$

$q=2.997\times 10^{-4}$ C

Sign of charge =Negative

Because electric force acting in opposite direction of electric field therefore,charge on penny will be negative.
