In some amazing situations, people have survived falling large distances when the surface they land on is soft enough. During a

traverse of Eiger's infamous Nordvand, mountaineer Carlos Ragone's rock anchor gave way and he plummeted 515 feet to land in snow. Amazingly, he suffered only a few bruises and a wrenched shoulder. Assuming that his impact left a hole in the snow 3.5 ft deep, estimate his average acceleration as he slowed to a stop (that is while he was impacting the snow). Pick a coordinate system where down is positive.

Two objects attract each other gravitationally. If the distance between their centers decreases by a factor of 2, how does the g
kramer

Answer:

The gravitational force between them increases by a factor of 4

Explanation:

Gravitational force is a force of attraction between two objects with masses M and m which are separated by a distance R. It is given mathematically as:

Fg = GMm/R²

Where G = Gravitational constant.

If the distance between their centers, R, decreases by a factor of 2, then it means the new distance between their centers is:

r = R/2

Hence,the gravitational force becomes:

Fg = GMm/r²

Fg = GMm/(R/2)²

Fg = GMm/(R²/4)

Fg = 4GMm/R²

Hence,the gravitational force increases by a factor of 4.

An object of length 3.00 cm is inside a plastic block with index of refraction 1.40. If the object is viewed from directly above
Lilit [14]
  • The length of its image = -3cm

Given,

length of object, h_o = 3 cm

We know, for flat refracting surface,  

Image distance = object distance

So,

magnification is = -1

length of the image,

h_i = magnification * h_o\\\\h_i = -1 * 3 \\\\h_i = -3cm

Here, negative sign means inverted image.

Chứng minh V=kq/r từ mối liên hệ giữ E và V
Marat540 [252]

Answer:V=Aq=KQr

Explanation:

Không biết V bạn kí hiệu ở đây là gì nhỉ? Có phải là điện thế?

Điện thế tại 1 điểm trong điện trường được định nghĩa là công làm vật dịch chuyển từ vị trí đó đến vô cùng. V = A/q

Chứng minh thì được, nhưng chỉ e bạn không có hiểu biết về nguyên hàm, tích phân nên không hiểu.

- Xét tại vị trí cách điện tích Q một đoạn x, khi đó điện tích q sẽ chịu 1 lực: dF=KQ.qx2

Điện tích q dịch chuyển 1 khoảng dx rất nhỏ. Khi đó công do lực điện trường gây ra là:

dA=dF.dx=KQ.qx2dx

Công để dịch chuyển điện tích q từ vị trí r đến vô cùng là:

A=∫∞rdA=∫∞rKQ.qx2dx=KQ.qr−KQ.q∞=KQ.qr

Theo đúng định nghĩa: V=Aq=KQr
