An exoplanet with one half of Earth's mass and 50% of Earth's radius is discovered.

Georgia [21]

Answer:

The space cadet that weighs 800 N on Earth will weigh 1,600 N on the exoplanet

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the exoplanet = 1/2×The mass of the Earth, M = 1/2 × M

The radius of the exoplanet = 50% of the radius of the Earth = 1/2 × The Earth's radius, R = 50/100 × R = 1/2 × R

The weight of the cadet on Earth = 800 N

$The \ weight, W =G\dfrac{M \times m}{R^{2}} = 800 \ N$

Therefore, for the weight of the cadet on the exoplanet, W₁, we have;

$W_1 =G\dfrac{\dfrac{M}{2} \times m}{ \left ( \dfrac{R}{2} \right ) ^{2}} = G\dfrac{\dfrac{M}{2} \times m \times 4}{ R ^{2}} = 2 \times G \times \dfrac{M \times m}{R^{2}} = 2 \times 800 \, N = 1,600 \, N$

The weight of a space cadet on the exoplanet, that weighs 800 N on Earth = 1,600 N.

Valerie is preparing a blood sample for analysis. She wants to separate the solid red blood cells and obtain only the liquid por

liraira [26]

First, she should put the sample in a test tube and place it in a centrifuge. This would cause the red blood cells to move to the bottom because of their higher density. Next, she would be able to decant the plasma and analyze it separately from the red blood cells.

wo parallel conducting plates are separated by 10.0 cm, and one of them is taken to be at zero volts. (a) What is the magnitude

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

-18896.49 V/m

Explanation:

Distance between the two plates = 10 cm = 10 x $10^{-2}$ m = 0.1 m

Also, one of the plates is taken as zero volt.

a. The potential strength between the zero volt plate, and 7.05 cm (0.0705 m) away is 393 V

b. The potential strength between the other plate, and 2.95 cm (0.0295 m) away is 393 V

Potential field strength = -dV/dx

where dV is voltage difference between these points,

dx is the difference in distance between these points

For the first case above,

potential field strength = -393/0.0705 = -5574.46 V/m

For the second case ,

potential field strength = -393/0.0295 = -13322.03 V/m

Magnitude of the field strength across the plates will be

-5574.46 + (-13322.03) = -5574.46 + 13322.03 = -18896.49 V/m
