According to legend, Galileo dropped two balls from the Tower of Pisa to see which would fall

Answer: 4.9 N

Explanation:

Weight W is the force that gravity exerts on matter and changes depending on where the body is located. This means, the weight of an object on Earth will not be the same as the weight of the same object on the Moon or on Mars.

Well, in the case of Galileo, he performed his experiment on Earth. Hence, the acceleration due gravity is g=9.8 m/s^{2}.

In addition, weight is mathematically expressed as:

W=m.g

Where m=5 kg is the mass of the ball

Solving the equation:

W=(5 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})

W=4.9 N This is the weight of the ball

I need ideas of what kind of simple motor i can build and how i can build it. The simple motor MUST spin without using your own
Alborosie

See for yourself how the forces of electricity and magnetism can work together by building a simple DC electric motor using simple materials you can find in any hardware store!

Electricity and magnetism are both forces caused by the movement of tiny charged particles that make up atoms, the building blocks of all matter. When a wire is hooked up to a battery, current flows through the wire because negatively charged electrons flow from the negative terminal of the battery toward the positive terminal of the battery because opposite charges attract each other, while similar charges repel each other. This flow of electrons through the wire is an electric current, and it produces a magnetic field.

In a magnet, atoms are lined up so that the negatively charged electrons are all spinning in the same direction. Like an electric current, the movement of the electrons creates a magnetic force. The area around the magnet where the force is active is called a magnetic field. Metal objects and other magnets that enter this field will be pulled toward the magnet.

The way the atoms are lined up creates two different poles in the magnet, a north pole and a south pole. As with electrical charges, opposite poles attract each other, while like poles repel each other.

Learn about electromagnetism and its many uses here.

Now let's watch it work as we build a motor.

The lowest possible temperature in outer space is 3.13 K. What is the rms speed of hydrogen molecules at this temperature? (The
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

v_{rms} =196.59 m/s

Given:

Temperature, T = 3.13 K

molar mass of molecular hydrogen, m = 2.02 g/mol = 2.02\times 10^{-3}kg/mol

Solution:

To calculate the root mean squarer or rms speed of hydrogen molecule, we use the given formula:

v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3TR}{m}}

where

R = rydberg's constant = 8.314 J/mol-K

Putting the values in the above formula:

v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 3.13\times 8.314}{2.02\times 10^{-3}}}

v_{rms} =196.59 m/s

Two ships leave a harbor at the same time, traveling on courses that have an angle of 110∘ between them. If the first ship trave
Allushta [10]

Answer:

49.07 miles

Explanation:

Angle between two ships = 110° = θ

First ship speed = 22 mph

Second ship speed = 34 mph

Distance covered by first ship after 1.2 hours = 22×1.2 = 26.4 miles = b

Distance covered by second ship after 1.2 hours = 34×1.2 = 40.8 miles = c

Here the angle between the two sides of a triangle is 110° so from the law of cosines we get

a² = b²+c²-2bc cosθ

⇒a² = 26.4²+40.8²-2×26.4×40.8 cos110

⇒a² = 2408.4

⇒a = 49.07 miles
