F = GMm/r²

The force follows inverse square law.

If the distance is reduced to (1/10) of the original value,

F = GMm/(1/10r)²

F =  GMm/(1/100)r<span>²

F = </span> 100* GMm/r<span>²

Hence the force is 100 times the original value.</span>

The force of attraction between two objects is proportional to the mass of the objects and inversely proportional to the square of teh distance between them. In this casem if the distance is decreased to 1/10 of the original, then teh force of attraction increases by 100 times (10^2).

A thin, taut string tied at both ends and oscillating in its third harmonic has its shape described by the equation y(x, t) = (5
barxatty [35]

Answer:

A thin, taut string tied at both ends and oscillating in its third harmonic has its shape described by the equation y(x,t)=(5.60cm)sin[(0.0340rad/cm)x]sin[(50.0rad/s)t]y(x,t)=(5.60cm)sin[(0.0340rad/cm)x]sin[(50.0rad/s)t], where the origin is at the left end of the string, the x-axis is along the string, and the y-axis is perpendicular to the string. (a) Draw a sketch that shows the standing-wave pattern. (b) Find the amplitude of the two traveling waves that make up this standing wave. (c) What is the length of the string? (d) Find the wavelength, frequency, period, and speed of the traveling waves. (e) Find the maximum transverse speed of a point on the string. (f) What would be the equation y(x, t) for this string if it were vibrating in its eighth harmonic?

The speed of light in a transparent medium is 0.6 times that of its speed in vacuum. Find the refractive index of the medium.
grin007 [14]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The refractive index is 1.66

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The speed of light in a transparent medium is 0.6 times that of its speed in vacuum .

Refractive index of medium = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium  

So

RI = 1/0.6 = 5/3 or 1.66

What are some examples of gravitational forces that keep an object in orbit? Pls give at least 2-3 example if you can.​
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Without any external forces a moving object will continue to move in a straight line. The gravitational force between the two objects will provide the centripetal force to keep the objects moving around one another.

1. satellite in orbit around the earth             (motion of earth is negligible)

2. moon in orbit around the earth     (center of motion several thousand miles        

                                                             from center of earth)

3. earth in orbit around sun    (center of rotation close to center of sun)

4. binary stars         (if masses of stars are equal center of rotation is in middle)

The animation shows a ball which has been kicked upward at an angle. Run the animation to watch the motion of the ball. Click in
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The acceleration of the ball is  a_y =  - 0.3672 \ m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The maximum height the ball reachs is H_{max} =  42.24 \ m

       The horizontal component of the initial velocity of the ball is v_{ix} = 5.57 \ m/s

       The vertical component of the initial velocity of the ball is v_{iy} = = 16.18 m/s

The vertically motion of the ball can be mathematically represented as

       v_{fy}^2  =  v_{iy} ^2 + 2 a_{y} H_{max}

Here the final velocity at the maximum height is zero so v_{fy} = 0 \ m/s

Making the acceleration a_y the subject we have

        a_y =  \frac{v_{iy} ^2}{2H_{max}}

substituting values

      a_y =  - \frac{5.57^2}{2* 42.24}

      a_y =  - 0.3672 \ m/s^2

The negative sign shows that the direction of the acceleration is in the negative y-axis
