Answer: If the magnification is positive, the image is upright compared to the object; if m is negative, the image is inverted compared to the object.
(I think, I was also stuck on this question for a bit)
The mass number of an element tells us the number of protons AND neutrons in an atom (the two particles that have a measurable mass). Sodium has a mass number of 23amu. Since sodium has 11 protons, the number of neutrons must be 23 – 11 = 12 neutrons.
Answer:
3.64×10⁸ m
3.34×10⁻³ m/s²
Explanation:
Let's define some variables:
M₁ = mass of the Earth
r₁ = r = distance from the Earth's center
M₂ = mass of the moon
r₂ = d − r = distance from the moon's center
d = distance between the Earth and the moon
When the gravitational fields become equal:
GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²
M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²
M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d − r)²
M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d² − 2dr + r²)
M₁ (d² − 2dr + r²) = M₂ r²
M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + M₁ r² = M₂ r²
M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + (M₁ − M₂) r² = 0
d² − 2d r + (1 − M₂/M₁) r² = 0
Solving with quadratic formula:
r = [ 2d ± √(4d² − 4 (1 − M₂/M₁) d²) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)
r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − (1 − M₂/M₁)) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)
r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − 1 + M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)
r = [ 2d ± 2d√(M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)
When we plug in the values, we get:
r = 3.64×10⁸ m
If the moon wasn't there, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity would be:
g = GM / r²
g = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) / (3.64×10⁸ m)²
g = 3.34×10⁻³ m/s²
Answer:
The combination, L = I / (m * R) , that appears in the equation for the period of a physical pendulum, is called radius of oscillations
Hope this helps :]
