If it's not moving at all at the beginning of the 10 seconds, then it falls 490 meters straight down in 10 seconds.

(Note: This is true of all objects on Earth . . . rubber balls, feathers, grains of sand, school buses, battle ships . . . everything. As long as air doesn't hold them back. Anything falling from rest falls 490 meters in the first 10 seconds.)

In a cyclotron, the orbital radius of protons with energy 300 keV is 16.0 cm . You are redesigning the cyclotron to be used inst

Archy [21]

Answer:

16 cm

Explanation:

For protons:

Energy, E = 300 keV

radius of orbit, r1 = 16 cm

the relation for the energy and velocity is given by

$E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

So, $v = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m}}$ .... (1)

Now,

$r = \frac{mv}{Bq}$

Substitute the value of v from equation (1), we get

$r = \frac{\sqrt{2mE}}{Bq}$

Let the radius of the alpha particle is r2.

For proton

So, $r_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{2m_{1}E}}{Bq_{1}}$ ... (2)

Where, m1 is the mass of proton, q1 is the charge of proton

For alpha particle

So, $r_{2} = \frac{\sqrt{2m_{2}E}}{Bq_{2}}$ ... (3)

Where, m2 is the mass of alpha particle, q2 is the charge of alpha particle

Divide equation (2) by equation (3), we get

$\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}=\frac{q_{2}}{q_{1}}\times \sqrt{\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}}}$

q1 = q

q2 = 2q

m1 = m

m2 = 4m

By substituting the values

$\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}=\frac{2q}}{q}}\times \sqrt{\frac{m}}{4m}}=1$

So, r2 = r1 = 16 cm

Thus, the radius of the alpha particle is 16 cm.

According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, which statements are true?

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Before we solve this, we should know this fact:

According to Newton's Law of Gravitation, the force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The force acts along the line joining the centres of the two objects. It can be shown by this:

$F ∝ \frac{Mm}{ {d}^{2} }$

Now, let us check all the options.

A. As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us decreases.

This statement is true.

The force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of distance from the centre of the earth. If, we go up the surface of the earth, the distance from the centre of the earth increases and hence the value of force of gravity decrease. So, force of gravity decreases with altitude.

B. As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is false.

We have already got the result in option A. that the force of gravity decreases with altitude. It never increases with altitude.

C. As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us decreases.

This statement is false.

The force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the masses. So, if increase our mass, then the force of gravity will also increase and if we decrease our mass, then the force of gravity decreases.

D. As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is true.

As mentioned earlier in option C., the force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the earth and another object. So, as we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

E. As we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is true.

Here, we have to consider a different formula. According to Newton's Second Law,

F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

In other words,

F ∝ a, i.e., force is directly proportional to acceleration.

We know, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an body within a time period.

So, if speed is increased, then acceleration will also be greater, which results in the increase of force. So, as we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

Answers:

A: As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us decreases.

D: As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

E: As we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

Hope you could understand.
