Planet A has twice the mass of Planet B. From this information, what can we conclude about the acceleration due to gravity at th

e surface of Planet A compared to that at the surface of Planet B?

Drupady [299]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

We cannot conclude anything about the acceleration due to gravity on Planet A without knowing the radii of the two planets.

Explanation:

This is so because

acceleration due to gravity (g) = Gm/r²

Where G= Newton's gravitational constant

              = 6.67 x 10-11 N * m2 / kg2.

             m = mass of the planet (in kg)  

              r = radius of the planet ( in m)

A particle moves along a straight path through a displacement d = 2.5i + cj while a force F = 8.5i + -8.5j acts on it. The displ
Zanzabum

Answer:

Explanation:

Work is defined as the scalar product of force and distance

W=F•d

Given that

F = 8.5i + -8.5j. +×-=-

F=8.5i-8.5j

d = 2.5i + cj

If the work in the practice is zero, then W=0

therefore,

W=F•ds

0=F•ds

0=(8.5i -8.5j)•(2.5i + cj)

Note that

i.i=j.j=k.k=1

i.j=j.i=k.i=i.k=j.k=k.j=0

So applying this

0=(8.5i -8.5j)•(2.5i + cj)

0= (8.5×2.5i.i + 8.5×ci.j -8.5×2.5j.i-8.5×cj.j)

0=21.25-8.5c

Therefore,

8.5c=21.25

c=21.25/8.5

c=2.5

Why do you think it would be more practical to use an electromagnet to move scrap metal than to use a permanent magnet?
Natalija [7]

Answer:

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

-An electromagnet's field can be rapidly changed by just controlling the amount of current. The magnetic strength can be varied over time.

-This way, only a sufficient amount of current will be supplied to meet the needs.

-Unlike the electromagnet, the permanent magnet has a fixed magnetic strength and can only lift a specified weight.
