Gravity decreases with the square of the distance, so the new force is (20)/(2*2) = 5N.

The average specific heat of the human body is 3.6 kJ/kg·°C. If the body temperature of a(n) 96-kg man rises from 37°C to 39°C d
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

691200 J

Explanation:

From specific heat capacity,

ΔQ = cmΔt.................. Equation 1

Where ΔQ = increase in thermal energy, c = specific heat capacity of the body, m = mass of the man, Δt = rise in temperature.

Given: c = 3.6 kJ/kg.°C = 3600 J/kg.°C, m = 96 kg, Δt = 39-37 = 2 °C.

Substitute into equation 1

ΔQ = 3600×96×2

ΔQ = 691200 J.

Hence the change in the thermal energy of the body = 691200 J

You throw a ball straight up from the edge of a cliff. It leaves your hand moving at 12.0 m/s. Air resistance can be neglected.
Levart [38]

Answer:

y = 3.159 m

Explanation:

Using the second equation of motion.

s = ut + 0.5at^2 .......1

Since the ball is thrown upward the acceleration due to gravity act against it.

Given:

distance s = y

Initial speed u = 12.0 m/s

Time t = 0.30 s

Acceleration a = -g = -9.8m/s^2

Equation 1 becomes;

y = ut - 0.5at^2

Substituting the given values. We have;

y = 12.0(0.30) - 0.5(9.8 × 0.3^2)

y = 3.6 - 0.441

y = 3.159 m

The magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is A) inversely proportional to the current in the wire and
faust18 [17]

Answer:

The magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is directly proportional to the current in the wire and inversely proportional to the distance from the wire.

Explanation:

The magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_0I}{2\pi d}............(1)

Where

\mu_o = permeability of free space, \mu_o=4\pi\times 10^{-7}\ T-m/A

I = current flowing in the wire

d = distance from wire

From equation (1), it is clear that the magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is directly proportional to the current flowing and inversely proportional to the distance from the wire. So, the correct option is (d).
