Answer

Gravitational force is between two object caused by energy in mass. Here when you are in a mine the radius of the earth in case of calculating gravity is reduced to the length between you and the center.

This means the mass of earth is decreasing even though the distance is decreasing. Relative to the decrease in distance squared the decrease in the mass of the second object(earth) is more. As a result your weight decreases.

Answer:

Explanation: that means as you descend into the earth, all of the mass in all the shells above you gets canceled. If the centre of the earth were not molten iron, but instead hollowed out, you would be weightless inside.

The physics problem is actually a little more general. It applies to inverse square force laws such as the electrical force. So if you put an electron inside a positively or negatively charged sphere, it will also have a net force on it of zero.

a small asteroid of mass 125 kg is orbiting a planet that has a mass of 3.52x 10^13 what is the radial distance between the aste
asambeis [7]

Answer:

r = 2.031 x 10⁶ m = 2031 km

Explanation:

In order for the asteroid to orbit the planet, the centripetal force must be equal to the gravitational force between asteroid and planet:

Centripetal Force = Gravitational Force

mv²/r = GmM/r²

v² = GM/r

r = GM/v²

where,

r = radial distance = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

M = Mass of Planet = 3.52 x 10¹³ kg

v = tangential speed = 0.034 m/s

Therefore,

r = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(3.52 x 10¹³ kg)/(0.034 m/s)²

<u>r = 2.031 x 10⁶ m = 2031 km</u>

Two moles of helium are initially at a temperature of 21.0 ∘Cand occupy a volume of 3.30×10−2 m3 . The helium first expands at c
Anettt [7]

Answer:

(B) The total internal energy of the helium is 4888.6 Joules

(C) The total work done by the helium is 2959.25 Joules

(D) The final volume of the helium is 0.066 cubic meter

Explanation:

(B) ∆U = P(V2 - V1)

From ideal gas equation, PV = nRT

T1 = 21°C = 294K, V1 = 0.033m^3, n = 2moles, V2 = 2× 0.033=0.066m^3

P = nRT ÷ V = (2×8.314×294) ÷ 0.033 = 148140.4 Pascal

∆U = 148140.4(0.066 - 0.033) = 4888.6 Joules

(C) P2 = P1(V1÷V2)^1.4 =148140.4(0.033÷0.066)^1.4= 148140.4×0.379=56134.7 Pascal

Assuming a closed system

(C) Wc = (P1V1 - P2V2) ÷ 0.4 = (148140.4×0.033 - 56134.7×0.066) ÷ 0.4 = (4888.6 - 3704.9) ÷ 0.4 = 1183.7 ÷ 0.4 = 2959.25 Joules

(C) Final volume = 2×initial volume = 2×0.033= 0.066 cubic meter

A flare is launched from a life raft with an initial velocity of 192 ft/sec. How many seconds will it take for the flare to retu
DIA [1.3K]

We use the formula,

h= ut- 16 t^2

Here, h is the  variable  represents the height of the flare  in feet when it returns to the sea so, h = 0 and u is the initial velocity of the flare, in feet per second and its value of 192 ft/sec.

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

0 = 192 t - 16 t^2  \\\\ 16 t( 12 - t ) =0 \\\\ t = 12 s.

Here, t= 0 neglect because it is  the time when the flare is launched.

Thus, flare return to the sea in 12 s.

Minority group
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Minority group - People who are singled  out for unequal treatment  and who regard  themselves as objects of  collective discrimination.

Ethnicity - A shared identity based on  cultural elements such as  heritage, language, and  religion.

Majority group - A group's subset that  consists of more than half  of the entire group's  members.

Race - A socially constructed  group of people who share  physical characteristics  that are considered  significant by a society  and that are used to  distinguish them from  other groups.

Explanation:

To better understand the above-mentioned definitions we would use some examples:

Elder people can be considered as a minority group in the United States because of their reduced status as a consequence of popular discrimination and prejudice against them. In contrast to them, young men consisting of more than half the population in the age category is an example of the majority group.

Groups of people like Hispanic Americans, Jews, Italian America, Irish are some examples of people belonging to different ethnic backgrounds residing in the U.S.

African Americans who are distinguished based on their skin color is an example of race.
