Starting from Newton’s law of universal gravitation, show how to find the speed of the moon in its orbit from the earth-moon dis

WARRIOR [948]

Answer: 1010.92 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

$F=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$F$ is the gravitational force between Earth and Moon

$G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$ is the Gravitational Constant

$M=5.972(10)^{24} kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$m=7.349(10)^{22} kg$ is the mass of the Moon

$r=3.9(10)^{8} m$ is the distance between the Earth and Moon

Asuming the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is a circular orbit, the Earth exerts a centripetal force on the moon, which is equal to $F$ :

$F=m.a_{C}$ (2)

Where $a_{C}$ is the centripetal acceleration given by:

$a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r}$ (3)

Being $V$ the orbital velocity of the moon

Making (1)=(2):

$m.a_{C}=G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}$ (4)

Simplifying:

$a_{C}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}}$ (5)

Making (5)=(3):

$\frac{V^{2}}{r}=G\frac{M}{r^{2}}$ (6)

Finding $V$ :

$V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}$ (7)

$V=\sqrt{\frac{(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.972(10)^{24} kg)}{3.9(10)^{8} m}}$ (8)

Finally:

$V=1010.92 m/s$

What happens when a resultant electric field exist in conductor

klio [65]

Answer:

When an electric field exists in a conductor a current will flow.

This implies a voltage difference between two points on the conductor.

Electrostatics pertains to static charge distributions.

That means that an object such as a charged spherical conductor will be at the same potential (voltage) on both its outer and inner surfaces.

<span>The meaning of the Big Bang has been very often misunderstood. It is thought that something exploded somewhere and then the exploded part expanded to where we are currently. I hope this did help If not I`m so sorry.</span>

Two cylindrical resistors are made from the same material. The shorter one has length L, diameter D, and resistance R1. The long

nordsb [41]

Answer:

the resistance of the longer one is twice as big as the resistance of the shorter one.

Explanation:

Given that :

For the shorter cylindrical resistor

Length = L

Diameter = D

Resistance = R1

For the longer cylindrical resistor

Length = 8L

Diameter = 4D

Resistance = R2

So;

We all know that the resistance of a given material can be determined by using the formula :

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{A}$

where;

A = πr²

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{\pi r ^2}$

For the shorter cylindrical resistor ; we have:

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{\pi r ^2}$

since 2 r = D

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{\pi (\frac{2}{2 \ r}) ^2}$

$R = \dfrac{ 4 \rho L }{\pi \ D ^2}$

For the longer cylindrical resistor ; we have:

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{\pi r ^2}$

since 2 r = D

$R = \dfrac{ \rho (8 ) L }{\pi (\frac{2}{2 \ r}) ^2}$

$R = \dfrac{32\rho L }{\pi \ (4 D) ^2}$

$R = \dfrac{2\rho L }{\pi \ (D) ^2}$

Sp;we can equate the shorter cylindrical resistor to the longer cylindrical resistor as shown below :

$\dfrac{R_s}{R_L} = \dfrac{ \dfrac{ 4 \rho L }{\pi \ D ^2}}{ \dfrac{2\rho L }{\pi \ (D) ^2}}$

$\dfrac{R_s}{R_L} ={ \dfrac{ 4 \rho L }{\pi \ D ^2}}* { \dfrac {\pi \ (D) ^2} {2\rho L}}$

$\dfrac{R_s}{R_L} =2$

${R_s}=2{R_L}$

Thus; the resistance of the longer one is twice as big as the resistance of the shorter one.

A physics student stands on a cliff overlooking a lake and decides to throw a softball to her friends in the water below. She th

The horizontal distance covered by the ball before hitting the water is 70.4 m

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is the motion of a projectile, so it consists of two independent motions:

A uniform motion along the horizontal (x) direction
A uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical (y) direction

We start by calculating the time of flight of the ball. This can be done by analyzing the vertical motion. We can use the following suvat equation:

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

where:

s = -16.5 m is the vertical displacement of the ball (it is negative because we take upward as positive direction)

$u_y$ is the initial vertical velocity of the ball, which is given by

$u_y = u sin \theta$

where

u = 23.5 m/s is the initial velocity

$\theta=33.5^{\circ}$ is the angle of projection

Substituting,

$u_y=(23.5)(sin 33.5^{\circ})=13.0 m/s$

$a=g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity, downward

Substituting everything into the equation we get:

$-16.5=13.0t-4.9t^2\\4.9t^2-13.0t-16.5=0$

Solving the equation for t, we find the time of flight of the ball:

t = -0.94 s

t = 3.59 s

We ignore the 1st solution since it is negative, so the ball reaches the water after 3.59 seconds.

Now we analyze the horizontal motion of the ball. The horizontal velocity is constant and it is:

$v_x=u cos \theta=(23.5)(cos 33.5^{\circ})=19.6 m/s$

Therefore, the horizontal distance covered in a time t is

$d=v_x t$

And substituting t = 3.59 s, we find

$d=(19.6)(3.59)=70.4 m$

So, the horizontal distance covered by the ball before hitting the water is 70.4 m.
