What would happen if both the radius and mass of a planet were cut in half

Physics
1 answer:
Shtirlitz [24]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

According to formula

g = GM/R^2

when mass is halved the value of g becomes half but when radius is halved the value of g increases 4 times.

As a result of both value of g becomes twice.

List the submultiples and multiple units of length, mass, and time with respect to real-life situations. How are these units are
dangina [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

In physics, there are two types of physical quantities namely the fundamental and the derived quantities. Fundamental quantities are independent quantities on which derived quantities depends on. Length, mass and time are examples of fundamental quantities.

The SI unit of length is meters. A meter is a multiple unit. Its submultiple units are centimetres (10⁻²metres), kilometres (10³metres), decimetres (10⁻¹metres) etc

The SI unit of mass is kilogram (kg). The only sub multiple unit used in real-life situation is grams.

1 kg = 100 grams

The SI unit of time is seconds. The multiple units are the minutes, hours, weeks, days and years.

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 day = 24 * 3600 = 86,400 secs

A ball attached to a string is whirled around in a horizontal circle having a radius r. If the radius of the circle is changed t
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Option D: Four times the original speed.

Explanation:

A centripetal force accelerates a body by changing the direction of the body's  velocity without changing the body's speed.

The speed(v) is therefore constant, thereby making the magnitudes of the of the acceleration and the force constant.

The formula used to calculate the Centripetal force is given below:

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

where F represents the Centripetal force, m represents the mass of the moving body, v represents the speed or velocity at which the body is moving and r represents the radius.

Making the speed the subject of the formula: v^{2} = \frac{rF}{m} \\

Therefore, when the radius (r) is changed to 4r, i.e r = 4r

speed(v) becomes v^2 = \frac{4rF}{m}

After comparing, the difference between the speeds is Four times the original speed.

Calculate the Latent Heat of Vaporization. (Please see picture attached)
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

20 J/g

Explanation:

In this question, we are required to determine the latent heat of vaporization

  • To answer the question, we need to ask ourselves the questions:

What is latent heat of vaporization?

  • It is the amount of heat required to change a substance from its liquid state to gaseous state without change in temperature.
  • It is the amount of heat absorbed by a substance as it boils.

How do we calculate the latent heat of vaporization?

  • Latent heat is calculated by dividing the amount of heat absorbed by the mass of the substance.

In this case;

  • Mass of the substance = 20 g
  • Heat absorbed as the substance boils is 400 J (1000 J - 600 J)

Thus,

Latent heat of vaporization = Quantity of Heat ÷ Mass

                                             = 400 Joules ÷ 20 g

                                             = 20 J/g

Thus, the latent heat of vaporization is 20 J/g
