F1 = G * m*m / [2r]  ^2 = G * m^2 / 4r^2

Given the the mass is proportional to the volume and the volume is proportional to r^3, the mass of each big sphere is  3^3 = 27 times the mass of the small spheres. And the distance between the centers is 3r + 3r = 6r

F2 = G * [27m * 27m]/* [6r]^2 = G* 27^2 m^2 / 36r^2 = 81 G*m^2 / 4r^2 = 81*F1

Therefore, F2 = 81F1

Answer: option D) 81F1.

An object of mass 3.00 kg, moving with an initial velocity of 5.05 m/s, collides with and sticks to an object of mass 2.76 kg wi
Lynna [10]

Answer:

0.752 m/s

Explanation:

m1 = 3.00kg

u1 = 5.05m/s

m2 = 2.76kg

u2 = -3.66m/s

According to the law of conservation of momentum,

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

3(5.05) + 2.76(-3.66) = (5.05+2.76)v

15.15 - 9.2736 = 7.81v

5.8764 = 7.81v

v = 5.8764/7.81

v = 0.752m/s

A thin film of oil of thickness t is floating on water. The oil has index of refraction no = 1.4. There is air above the oil. Wh
kkurt [141]

Answer:

t = 120.5 nm

Explanation:

given,    

refractive index of the oil = 1.4

wavelength of the red light = 675 nm

minimum thickness of film = ?

formula used for the constructive interference

2 n t = (m+\dfrac{1}{2})\lambda

where n is the refractive index of oil

t is thickness of film

for minimum thickness

m = 0

2 \times 1.4 \times t = (0+\dfrac{1}{2})\times 675

t = \dfrac{0.5\times 675}{2\times 1.4}

        t = 120.5 nm

hence, the thickness of the oil is t = 120.5 nm

How much time is needed to produce 720 Joules of work if 90 watts of power is used?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

8 seconds

Explanation:

power (P) is defined as the rate at which work is done.

power is measured in Watts (W) , when the work done is measured in Joules (J) and time in seconds

by the definition of power,

Power=\frac{work.done}{time.taken} \\ \\ time.taken=\frac{work.done}{power}\\=\frac{720J }{90W} \\ \\ =8 s
