Xelga [282]3 years ago

<span>Newton's law of universal gravitation is an INVERSE SQUARE LAW, which rules out C and D.It is proportional to the masses involved, which rules out B.A could be seen as one form of the lawF=G m1 m1/r^2Though I recognise it more as F=G m1 m2/r^2.G is the universal gravity constant and is distinct from g which is the acceleration of gravity LOCAL to a planet or moon. So, g is LOCAL, G is universal.Newton was a smart bloke, as are all these scientists whose names frequently appear.

How many atoms are there in 3.4moles if helium ,show the calculation
prohojiy [21]
Answer: 20.4752789138x x  10^23 atoms
To count how many atoms in moles you need to know Avogadro's number. Avogadro's number dictate that for every mole there is 6.022140857 × 10^23 molecule/atoms.
Then 3.4 moles of helium will be 3.4x 6.022140857 x  10^23 atoms= 20.4752789138x x  10^23 atoms

A standard 1 kilogram weight is a cylinder 54.0 mm in height and 55.0 mm in diameter. what is the density of the material
denis-greek [22]

The radius of the cylinder is equal to half the diameter:

r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{55.0 mm}{2}=27.5 mm

The volume of the cylinder is given by:

V=\pi r^2 h=\pi (27.5 mm)^2 (54.0 mm)=1.28 \cdot 10^5 mm^3

where h is the heigth of the cylinder. Converting into meters,

V=1.28 \cdot 10^{-4} m^3

And the density of the material will be given by the ratio between the mass and the volume:

d=\frac{m}{V}=\frac{1 kg}{1.28 \cdot 10^{-4} m^3}=7812.5 kg/m^3

A 10 kg turkey, He kicks the 0.5 kg ball with a force of 50N for 0.2 seconds and the ball flies straight away horizontally from
Harman [31]

Answer:

a. 20m/s

b.50N

c. Turkey has a larger mass than the ball. Neglible final acceleration and therefore remains stationery.

Explanation:

a. Given the force as 50N, times as 0.2seconds and the weight of the ball as 0.5 kg, it's final velocity can be calculated as:

F\bigtriangleup t=m\bigtriangleup v\\\\50N\times 0.2s=0.5kg\times \bigtriangleup v\\\\\bigtriangleup v=2(50N\times0.2)\\\\=20m/s

Hence, the velocity of the ball after the kick is 20m/s

b.The force felt by the turkey:

#Applying Newton's 3rd Law of motion, opposite and equal reaction:

-The turkey felt a force of 50N but in the opposite direction to the same force felt by the ball.

c. Using the law of momentum conservation:

-Due to ther external forces exerted on the turkey, it remains stationery.

-The turkey has a larger mass than the ball. It will therefore have a negligible acceleration if any and thus remains stationery.

-Momentum is not conserved due to these external forces.

6. A satellite is orbiting Earth just above its surface. The centripetal force making the satellite follow a circular trajectory
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Engular velocity: w=1,24*10^{-3}/s

Linear velocity: V=7905 m/s

The time it takes:

t=5060s=84min

Explanation:

The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration can be related to the angular velocity and radius as:

(1)a=r*w^{2}

Solving for w:

(2)w=\sqrt{\frac{a}{r} }

Replacing a=9,8m/s2 and r=6,375,000m:

(3)w=\sqrt{\frac{9,8m/s^{2}}{6375000m} }=1,24*10^{-3}/s

And the angular velocity relates to the linear velocity:

V=w*r=1,24*10^{-3}/s*6375000m=7905 m/s

The perimeter of the orbit is:

P=\pi *2*r=\pi *2*6375000m=40.05*10^{6}m

The time it takes:

t=\frac{P}{V} =\frac{40.05*10^{6}m}{7905 m/s}=5060s=84min
