According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, which statement is true?

SIZIF [17.4K]

Option (a) is correct.

Falling objects accelerate as they approach the ground.This is because of the force of gravity acting on the falling objects. so the velocity of these objects increases continuously as they approach the ground. the acceleration acting on the falling objects is a constant ( close to the surface of earth) and is called as acceleration due to gravity denoted by g. value of g=9.8 m/s².

While playing her guitar , karen plucks one string with increasing levels of force. What effect does this have on the sound prod

Lena [83]

Answer:

The amplitude of vibration of string will increase due to which loudness of sound will increase

Explanation:

As we know that the guitar is based on the principle of Resonance. When string of the guitar vibrates at a given frequency then the sound produced in the hollow part of the guitar will also be at same frequency.

This is known as resonance condition, so guitar will produce same frequency sound as that of frequency of string.

Now if the string is plucked with increasing level of force then it will increase the amplitude of vibrations of the string due to which the sound produced in the guitar will also be of same level.

So here we can say that amplitude and intensity of sound related as

$I = kA^2$

so on increasing amplitude the intensity will increase and hence it will produce loud sound

A 0.12-kg metal rod carrying a current of current 4.1 A glides on two horizontal rails separation 6.3 m apart. If the coefficien

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The magnetic field is $B = 8.20 *10^{-3} \ T$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the metal rod is $m = 0.12 \ kg$

The current on the rod is $I = 4.1 \ A$

The distance of separation(equivalent to length of the rod ) is $L = 6.3 \ m$

The coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu_k = 0.18$

The kinetic frictional force is $F_k = 0.212 \ N$

The constant speed is $v = 5.1 \ m/s$

Generally the magnetic force on the rod is mathematically represented as

$F = B * I * L$

For the rod to move with a constant velocity the magnetic force must be equal to the kinetic frictional force so

$F_ k = B* I * L$

=> $B = \frac{F_k}{L * I }$

=> $B = \frac{0.212}{ 6.3 * 4.1 }$

=> $B = 8.20 *10^{-3} \ T$

What is the gravity force between two stars with mass of 5,000,000 kg and 1,000,000 kg if the distance between them is 100 m

Luda [366]

Answer:

0.0334N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

M1 = 5 x 10⁶kg

M2 = 1 x 10⁶kg

Distance = 100m

Unknown:

Gravitational force = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the Newton's law of universal gravitation.

Fg = $\frac{G m1 m2}{r^{2} }$

G is the universal gravitation constant

m is the mass

r is the distance

Fg = $\frac{6.67 x 10^{-11} x 5 x 10^{6} x 1 x 10^{6} }{100^{2} }$ = 0.0334N

A wire of resistivity ρ must be replaced in a circuit by a wire of the same material but four times as long. If, however, the to

Elanso [62]

Answer:

E. two times the original diameter

Explanation:

Resistance of a wire is:

R = ρ L/A

where ρ is the resistivity of the material, L is the length, and A is the cross-sectional area.

For a round wire with diameter d:

R = ρ L / (¼ π d²)

The two wires must have the same resistance, so:

ρ₁ L₁ / (¼ π d₁²) = ρ₂ L₂ / (¼ π d₂²)

The wires are made of the same material, so ρ₁ = ρ₂:

L₁ / (¼ π d₁²) = L₂ / (¼ π d₂²)

The new length is four times the old, so 4 L₁ = L₂:

L₁ / (¼ π d₁²) = 4 L₁ / (¼ π d₂²)

1 / (¼ π d₁²) = 4 / (¼ π d₂²)

Solving:

1 / (d₁²) = 4 / (d₂²)

(d₂²) / (d₁²) = 4

(d₂ / d₁)² = 4

d₂ / d₁ = 2

So the new wire must have a diameter twice as large as the old wire.
