Heating the gas in an air balloon makes the balloon rise<span> because the </span>gas<span> in the</span>balloon<span> becomes lighter than natural </span>air<span>. The </span>heated gas<span> has less mass per unit of volume than that of the cool </span>air<span> surrounding the </span>balloon<span>. Hope this answers the question.</span>

A planet has two moons with identical mass. Moon 1 is in a circular orbit of radius r. Moon 2 is in a circular orbit of radius 2
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Half as large.

Explanation:

Using Newton's law of universal gravitation, if the mass of the planet is <em>M</em> and of the Moons 1 and 2 is <em>m</em>, them the force exerted by the planet on them will be:

F_1=\frac{GMm}{r}

F_2=\frac{GMm}{2r}

Which clearly shows that the force that the planet exerts on the Moon 2 is half  the force it exerts on the Moon 1.

8 points)Antireflection coating can be used on the eyeglasses to reduce the reflection of light: a) A 100nm thick coating is app
NemiM [27]

Answer:

- the coating’s index of refraction is 1.25

- the required thickness is 104.1667 nm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Thickness of coating t = 100 nm

wavelength λ = 500nm

we know that refractive index is;

t = λ/4n

make n, the subject of formula

t4n = λ

n = λ / 4t

we substitute

n = 500 / ( 4 × 100 )

n = 500 / 400

n = 1.25

Therefore, the coating’s index of refraction is 1.25

2)

given that;

Index of refraction of the coating; n = 1.20

λ = 500 nm

thickness of coating t = ?

t = λ / 4n

we substitute

t = 500 / ( 4 × 1.2 )

t = 500 / 4.8

t = 104.1667 nm

Therefore, the required thickness is 104.1667 nm

A parallel-plate capacitor is made from two aluminum-foil sheets, each 3.0 cm wide and 5.00 m long. Between the sheets is a mica
Evgen [1.6K]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A parallel-plate capacitor is made from two aluminum-foil sheets, each 3.0 cm wide and 5.00 m long. Between the sheets is a mica strip of the same width and length that is 0.0225 mm thick. What is the maximum charge?

(The dielectric constant of mica is 5.4, and its dielectric strength is 1.00×10⁸ V/m)

Answer: the maximum charge q is 716.85 μF

Explanation:

Given data;

with = 3.0 cm = 0.03

breathe = 5.0 m

Area = 0.03 × 5 = 0.15 m²

dielectric strength E = 1.00 × 10⁸

∈₀ = 8.85 × 10⁻¹²

constant K = 5.4

maximum charge = ?

the capacitor C = KA∈₀ / d

q = cv so c = q/v

now

q/v = KA∈₀ / d

q =  vKA∈₀/d = EKA∈₀

we substitute

q = (1.00 × 10⁸) × 5.4 × 0.15 ×  8.85 × 10⁻¹²    

q = 716.85 × 10⁻⁶ F

q = 716.85 μF

the maximum charge q is 716.85 μF
