Earth is subject not only to the gravitational force of the Moon but also to the gravitational pull of the Sun. However, Earth i

s much farther away from the Sun than it is from the Moon. In fact, the center of Earth is at an average distance of 1.5×1011m from the center of the Sun. Given that the mass of the Sun is 1.99×1030kg, which of the following statements is correct?
A. The force exerted on Earth by the Sun is weaker than the corresponding force exerted by the Moon.
B. The force exerted on Earth by the Sun is stronger than the corresponding force exerted by the Moon.
C. The force exerted on Earth by the Sun is of the same order of magnitude of the corresponding force exerted by the Moon.

Answer:

option (B)

Explanation:

The gravitational force on earth depends on the mass of sun and the distance of sun from earth.

As the mass of sun is much more than the mass of moon, so the gravitational force of sun on earth is much more than the force on earth due to the moon.

The distance does not matter because the mass of sun is much more.

Find the mass and center of mass of the solid E with the given density function ρ. E lies under the plane z = 3 + x + y and abov
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The mass of the solid is 16 units.

The center of mass of the solid lies at (0.6875, 0.3542, 2.021)

Work:

Density function: ρ(x, y, z) = 8

x-bounds: [0, 1], y-bounds: [0, x], z-bounds: [0, x+y+3]

The mass M of the solid is given by:

M = ∫∫∫ρ(dV) = ∫∫∫ρ(dx)(dy)(dz) = ∫∫∫8(dx)(dy)(dz)

First integrate with respect to z:

∫∫8z(dx)(dy), evaluate z from 0 to x+y+3

= ∫∫[8x+8y+24](dx)(dy)

Then integrate with respect to y:

∫[8xy+4y²+24y]dx, evaluate y from 0 to x

= ∫[8x²+4x²+24x]dx

Finally integrate with respect to x:

[8x³/3+4x³/3+12x²], evaluate x from 0 to 1

= 8/3+4/3+12

= 16

The mass of the solid is 16 units.

Now we have to find the center of mass of the solid which requires calculating the center of mass in the x, y, and z dimensions.

The z-coordinate of the center of mass Z is given by:

Z = (1/M)∫∫∫ρz(dV) = (1/16)∫∫∫8z(dx)(dy)(dz)

<em>Calculate the integral then divide the result by 16.</em>

First integrate with respect to z:

∫∫4z²(dx)(dy), evaluate z from 0 to x+y+3

= ∫∫[4(x+y+3)²](dx)(dy)

= ∫∫[4x²+24x+8xy+4y²+24y+36](dx)(dy)

Then integrate with respect to y:

∫[4x²y+24xy+4xy²+4y³/3+12y²+36y]dx, evaluate y from 0 to x

= ∫[28x³/3+36x²+36x]dx

Finally integrate with respect to x:

[7x⁴/3+12x³+18x²], evaluate x from 0 to 1

= 7/3+12+18

Z = (7/3+12+18)/16 = <u>2.021</u>

The y-coordinate of the center of mass Y is given by:

Y = (1/M)∫∫∫ρy(dV) = (1/16)∫∫∫8y(dx)(dy)(dz)

<em>Calculate the integral then divide the result by 16.</em>

First integrate with respect to z:

∫∫8yz(dx)(dy), evaluate z from 0 to x+y+3

= ∫∫[8xy+8y²+24y](dx)(dy)

Then integrate with respect to y:

∫[4xy²+8y³/3+12y²]dx, evaluate y from 0 to x

= ∫[20x³/3+12x²]dx

Finally integrate with respect to x:

[5x⁴/3+4x³], evaluate x from 0 to 1

= 5/3+4

Y = (5/3+4)/16 = <u>0.3542</u>

<u />

The x-coordinate of the center of mass X is given by:

X = (1/M)∫∫∫ρx(dV) = (1/16)∫∫∫8x(dx)(dy)(dz)

<em>Calculate the integral then divide the result by 16.</em>

First integrate with respect to z:

∫∫8xz(dx)(dy), evaluate z from 0 to x+y+3

= ∫∫[8x²+8xy+24x](dx)(dy)

Then integrate with respect to y:

∫[8x²y+4xy²+24xy]dx, evaluate y from 0 to x

= ∫[12x³+24x²]dx

Finally integrate with respect to x:

[3x⁴+8x³], evaluate x from 0 to 1

= 3+8 = 11

X = 11/16 = <u>0.6875</u>

<u />

The center of mass of the solid lies at (0.6875, 0.3542, 2.021)

Choose all of the true statements regarding the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current. Current is measured in am
AveGali [126]

-- <u><em>Current is measured in amps.</em></u>  (You can use any symbol you want to represent current, but the most common one is " I ", not "Δ".)

-- <u><em>The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is mathematically defined by Ohm's Law. </em></u>

-- <u><em>Current is the flow of electrons through a circuit.</em></u>

-- (Ohm's Law is NOT mathematically represented by the equation V=I/R.)  <u><em>It should be V = I · R</em></u> .  

(When solving for Resistance in a circuit and both voltage and current are known values, the equation I =V*R is not true, and not the way to solve it.)  <u><em>If the resistance is what you're looking for, then the equation to use is  </em></u><u><em>R = V / I</em></u><u><em> .  </em></u>

<em>-- </em><u><em>If the voltage in a circuit is increased, the current will also increase.</em></u>
