To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Centrifugal Force and the Gravitational Force. Since there is balance on the body these two Forces will be equal, mathematically they can be expressed as

F_c = F_g

\frac{mv^2}{r} = \frac{GmM}{r^2}

Where,

m = Mass

G =Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of the Planet

r = Distance/Radius

Re-arrange to find the velocity we have,

v^2 = \frac{GM}{r}

At the same time we know that the period is equivalent in terms of the linear velocity to,

T = \frac{2\pi}{\frac{v}{r}}

v = \frac{2\pi r}{T}

If our values are that the radius of mars is 3400 km and the distance above the planet is 100km more, i.e, 3500km we have,

v^2 = \frac{GM}{r}

( \frac{2\pi r}{T})^2 =  \frac{GM}{r}

T = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2 r^3}{GM}}

Replacing we have,

T = \sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2 (3500*10^3)^3}{(6.67430*10^{-11})(6.42*10^23)}}

T = 6285.09s (\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{1hour}{60min})

T= 1.74hour

Therefore the correct answer is C.

We want to construct a solenoid with a resistance of 4.30 Ω and generate a magnetic field of 3.70 × 10−2 T at its center when ap
marshall27 [118]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Resistance of solenoid,R=4.3 ohm

Magnetic field,B=3.7\times 10^{-2} T

Current,I=4.6 A

Diameter of wire,d=0.5 mm=0.5\times 10^{-3} m

Radius of wire,r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.5\times 10^{-3}}{2}=0.25\times 10^{-3} m

1mm=10^{-3} m

Radius of solenoid,r'=1 cm=1\times 10^{-2} m

1 cm=10^{-2} m

Resistivity of copper,\rho=1.68\times 10^{-8}\Omega m

We know that

R=\frac{\rho l}{A}

Where A=\pi r^2

Using the formula

4.3=\frac{1.68\times 10^{-8}\times l}{\pi(0.25\times 10^{-3})^2}

l=\frac{4.3\times \pi(0.25\times 10^{-3})^2}{1.68\times 10^{-8}}=50.23 m

Number of turns of wire=\frac{l}{2\pi r'}

Number of turns of wire=\frac{50.26}{2\pi(1\times 10^{-2}}=800

Hence, the number of turns of the  solenoid,N=799

Magnetic field in solenoid,B=\mu_0 nI

3.7\times 10^{-2}=4\pi\times 10^{-7} n\times 4.6

n=\frac{3.7\times 10^{-2}}{4\times 3.14\times 10^{-7}\times 4.6}

n=6404 turns/m

n=\frac{N}{L}

L=\frac{N}{n}

L=\frac{799}{6404}

L=0.125 m=0.125\times 100=12.5 cm

Length of solenoid=12.5 cm

1m=100 cm

How much heat is required to convert 5.53 g of ice at -12.0 ∘C to water at 24.0 ∘C? (The heat capacity of ice is 2.09 J/(g⋅∘C),
fredd [130]

Answer:

2.55 × 10³ J =2.55 kJ

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of ice =  37.8 J / mol °C

Specific heat capacity of water = 76.0 J/ mol °C

Ice at -12 °C is converted to ice at 0 °C by absorbing heat Q₁

Ice at 0°C melts to water at 0 °C. Let Heat  absorbed during this phase change be Q₂ .

Let heat  absorbed to raise the temperature of water from 0 C to 24°C be Q₃ .

Total heat = Q = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃

Q₁ = (37.8 j/mol C )(5.53 g /18.01532 g/ mol )( 0-(-12)) = 139.23749 j

Q₂ =(5.53 g/18.01532 g H₂O / mol ) (6.02 x10³ j) = 1847.905 j

Q₃ = (76 j/mol C) ( (5.53 g/18.01532 g H₂O / mol )(24-0) = 559.8968 j

Total Heat required = Q = 139.23749 j + 1847.905 j + 559.8968 j

= 2547.039 j = 2.55 × 10³ J =2.55 kJ

Six artificial satellites circle a space station at constant speed. The mass m of each satellite, distance L from the space stat
nikklg [1K]

Answers:

a) T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}

b) a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}

Explanation:

a) Since we are told the satellites circle the space station at constant speed, we can assume they follow a uniform circular motion and their tangential speeds V are given by:

V=\omega L=\frac{2\pi}{T} L (1)

Where:

\omega is the angular frequency

L is the radius of the orbit of each satellite

T is the period of the orbit of each satellite

Isolating T:

T=\frac{2 \pi L}{V} (2)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

T_{1}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{1}}=261.79 s (3)

T_{2}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{2}}=1570.79 s (4)

T_{3}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{3}}=196.349 s (5)

T_{4}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{4}}=98.174 s (6)

T_{5}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{5}}=785.398 s (7)

T_{6}=\frac{2 \pi L}{V_{6}}=196.349 s (8)

Ordering this periods from largest to smallest:

T_{2}>T_{5}>T_{1}>T_{3}=T_{6}>T_{4}

b) Acceleration a is defined as the variation of velocity in time:

a=\frac{V}{T} (9)

Applying this equation to each satellite:

a_{1}=\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=0.458 m/s^{2} (10)

a_{2}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}=0.0254 m/s^{2} (11)

a_{3}=\frac{V_{3}}{T_{3}}=0.4074 m/s^{2} (12)

a_{4}=\frac{V_{4}}{T_{4}}=1.629 m/s^{2} (13)

a_{5}=\frac{V_{5}}{T_{5}}=0.101 m/s^{2} (14)

a_{6}=\frac{V_{6}}{T_{6}}=0.814 m/s^{2} (15)

Ordering this acceerations from largest to smallest:

a_{4}>a_{6}>a_{1}>a_{3}>a_{5}>a_{2}

How to charge a laptop battery without a charger?
Likurg_2 [28]
I dont know if it right but <span>Use a universal power adapter. This is perhaps the most obvious solution to your battery woes. Readily found at most retail outlets that carry electronics, a universal power adapter can range anywhere in price from $30 to $100 or more. The adapter comes with multiple tips, one of which will likely fit your laptop’s charging port. When plugged in, the adapter will not only power your laptop, but will charge its battery as well.</span>
