Hypothetically speaking, if an object were located at the center of the Earth, the gravitational force on that object due to the

surrounding Earth, assuming matter is uniformly distributed, would have which of the following values?
a) The force would be approximately the same value as if the object were on the surface of the Earth.
b) The force would be much greater than the value if the object were on the surface of the Earth.
c) The force would be somewhat less than the value if the object was on the surface of the Earth, but it would be greater than zero newtons.
d) The force would be zero newtons.

Answer:

D. ) The force would be zero newtons

Explanation:

Because

If you are at the center of the earth, gravity is zero because all the mass around you is pulling "up" (every direction there is up!)

So F=mg so if g is zero F is also zero

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

assuming that there is an equal amount of each base, you can make 65,536 bases

Explanation:

Adenine(A) Guanine(G) Thymine(T) and Cytosine(C) are the 4 nitrogen bases.

The girl makes a microscope with a 3.0 cm focal length objective and a 5.0 cm eyepiece. The microscope tube length is 10 cm. Use
saul85 [17]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Magnification. Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size, not physical size, of something. This enlargement is quantified by a calculated number also called "magnification".

The overall magnification of microscope is

M = \frac{Nl}{f_ef_0}

Where

N = Near point

l = distance between the object lens and eye lens

f_0= Focal length

f_e= Focal of eyepiece

Given that the minimum distance at which the eye is able to focus is about 25cm we have that N = 25cm

Replacing,

M = \frac{25*10}{3*5}

M = 16.67\approx 17\\

Therefore the correct answer is C.

Recall that the differential equation for the instantaneous charge q(t) on the capacitor in an lrc-series circuit is l d 2q dt 2
Aloiza [94]
DE which is the differential equation represents the LRC series circuit where
L d²q/dt² + Rdq/dt +I/Cq = E(t) = 150V.
Initial condition is q(t) = 0 and i(0) =0.
To find the charge q(t)  by using Laplace transformation by
Substituting known values for DE
L×d²q/dt² +20 ×dq/dt + 1/0.005× q = 150
d²q/dt² +20dq/dt + 200q =150

A mechanic uses a jack to lift up a car. He exerts a force of 11,000 N at a distance of 3m from the axis of rotation. How much t
pshichka [43]

Answer:

<h2>The amount of torque put on the car is 33,000Nm</h2>

Explanation:

Formula for calculating torque is expressed as T = rFsin\theta\\ where;

r is the radius of the  of the arm of the jack = 3m

F is the force exerted = 11000

\theta\\ is the angle of rotation = 90°

On substituting;

T = 3*11000sin90^{o} \\T = 3*11000 (sin90^{o} =1)\\T = 33000Nm
