Physics
1 answer:
julsineya [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The Milky Way is about 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 km (about 100,000 light years or about 30 kpc) across. The Sun does not lie near the center of our Galaxy. It lies about 8 kpc from the center on what is known as the Orion Arm of the Milky Way

Scilla [17]

The new magnitude of the force of attraction will be 6 times the original force of attraction

<h3>How to determine the initial force </h3>
  • Mass 1 = m₁
  • Mass 2 = m₂
  • Gravitational constant = G
  • Distance apart = r
  • Initial force (F₁) = ?

F = Gm₁m₂ / r²

F₁ = Gm₁m₂ / r²

<h3>How to determine the new force </h3>
  • Mass 1 = 2m₁
  • Mass 2 = 3m₂
  • Gravitational constant = G
  • Distance apart (r) = r
  • New force (F₂) =?

F = Gm₁m₂ / r²

F₂ = G × 2m₁ × 3m₂ / r²

F₂ = 6Gm₁m₂ / r²

But

F₁ = Gm₁m₂ / r²

Therefore

F₂ = 6Gm₁m₂ / r²

F₂ = 6F₁

Thus, the new magnitude of the force of attraction will be 6 times the original force of attraction

Two rocks of different masses are rolling down a hill at the same speed. Which rock (small one or big one) would have more kinet
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Kinetic energy of bigger rock will be more than that of smaller one.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the rock is given by,

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

As velocity of both the rocks are same. Thus, kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the rock

Kinetic energy ∝ mass

So, For greater mass kinetic energy will be greater and for smaller mass kinetic energy will be smaller.

Hence, Kinetic energy of bigger rock will be more than that of smaller one.

In a certain oscillating LC circuit, the total energy is converted from electrical energy in the capacitor to magnetic energy in
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

A = 5.6μs

B = 178.57kHz

C = 2.8μs

Explanation:

A. It takes ¼ of the period of the circuit before the total energy is converted from electrical energy in the capacitor to magnetic energy in the inductor.

t = T/4

T = 4*t

T = 4 * 1.4 = 5.6μs

B. f = 1/T

Frequency is the inverse of period

f = 1 / 5.6*10⁻⁶

f = 178571.4286Hz

f = 178.57kHz

C. time taken for maximum energy to occur is T/2

t = 5.6 / 2 = 2.8μs

A man throw a ball vertically up word with an intial speed 20m/s. What is the maximum height rich by the ball and how long does
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

u=20 m/s, T=4s

Explanation:

Given final velocity v= 0 m/s and displacement h= 20 m; acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/ s 2

From equation of motion 

v2=u2+2gs−u2=−2(10).20u=20m/s

and time t can be determined by the formula

t=gv−u=−10−20=2s

total time = 2× time of ascend=2×2=4s

it is helpful for you
