What gravitational force does the moon produce

Physics
1 answer:
dangina [55]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

F = 1.94 \times 10^{20} N

Explanation:

Mass of earth ; M = 5.973 \times 10^{24} kg

Mass of moon ; m = 7.34 \times 10^{22}kg

distance between them is ;d = 3.88 \times 10^{8}m

Gravitational constant is given by

G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11} m^{3}kg^{-1}s^{-2}

So , the gravitational force between them is

F = \frac{GMm}{d^{2}}

Insert the values

F = \frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times 5.973 \times 10^{24} \times 7.34 \times 10^{22}}{(3.88 \times 10^{8})^{2}} N

So,

F = 1.94 \times 10^{20} N

Thus , the force between earth and moon is F = 1.94 \times 10^{20} N

Three electromagnetic waves travel through a certain point P along an x axis. They are polarized parallel to a y axis, with the
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

4.846*10^{-5} sin(5*10^{14}t )

Explanation:

Frequency of each electromagnetic wave is same thus we can interfere them along X axis in Phase diagram.

In phase diagram indicate each wave as vector with amplitude as length and phase difference as angle. (shown in attachment)

Now take component of E2 and E3 amplitude along X direction.

Net amplitude of all E in X direction = 4*10^{-5} + cos(45)[ 6*10^{-6} +  6*10^{-6} ]

⇒  4.846*10^{-5}

Final resultant have no change in frequency

So , resultant is 4.846*10^{-5} sin(5*10^{14}t )

Explain how "elastic potential energy" dramatically changed the sport of pole vaulting when flexible fiberglass poles replaced s
natulia [17]

Answer:

when the old wooden stiff poles were being used, none of the kinetic energy during the run-up was stored in the pole.  With the new fiber glass flexible pole, some of that energy is stored in the flexing of the pole and then released as the pole straightens out at the top of its arc.  Where 13 ft was considered an excellent competition vault with the stiff pole, the additional boost from the stored energy in the flex pole has made 17 ft vaults the winning heights.

The flexible fiberglass poles can bend more than wooden ones, before breaking. This meant that fiberglass poles are able to store more energy than wooden ones, and provide an additional increase in height to the vaulter, when the pole straightens out near the top of the vault.

Explain the process of adaptive radiation. Give an example.
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Adaptive radiation usually refers to the diversification of living species that are evolved from a common ancestor. There occur changes and modifications in the ecological system, due to which the species can adapt to the changing environment with the available resources. It also modifies the ways in which the existing species interacts with the surrounding environment.  Here, the species select the ecological niches naturally.

A plant named 'silver sword' that is commonly found in Hawaii, and the appearance and diversification of mammals after the extinction of dinosaurs by the end of Cretaceous, are two examples of adaptive radiation.

Consider two identical electric bulbs of power P and resistance R. You connect them to a battery of voltage V. The first time yo
natulia [17]

Answer:

The answer is 2X as much illumination as connection in series

Explanation:

We are given from the question that the two bulbs are identical in power and resistance.

Firstly we know that In a series connection the Voltage across the circuit elements are different whereas In a parallel connection, the same value of voltage passes through all the circuit elements.

Power is expressed as ;

P = V^2/ R

An increase in voltage leads to an increase in power likewise if the voltage is reduced the power also reduces.

The two bulbs are said to be having the same resistances , so the voltage across them in a series connection will be halved

V =1/2V1 + 1/2 V2; making the illumination across them to be low.

Therefore in parallel the illumination will be twice as much the illumination when connected in series.
