Every few hundred years most of the planets line up on the same side of the Sun.(Figure 1)Calculate the total force on the Earth
mylen [45]

Answer: 3.7 \times 10^{-4} N

Explanation:

The gravitational pull between two object is given by:

F = G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

Where M and m are the masses of the object, r is the distance between the masses and G = 6.67× 10⁻¹¹ m³kg⁻¹ s⁻² is the gravitational constant.

We have to calculate the net force on Earth due to Venus, Jupiter and Saturn when they are in one line. It means when they are the closest distance.

F_{net] = G\frac{M_eM_v}{r_v^2}+G\frac{M_eM_j}{r_j^2}+G\frac{M_eM_s}{r_s^2}

Mass of Earth, Me = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

Mass of Venus, Mv = 0.815 Me

Mass of Jupiter, Mj = 318 Me

Mass of Saturn, Ms = 95.1 Me

closest distance between Earth and Venus, rv = 38 × 10⁶ km = 0.25 AU

closest distance between Jupiter and Earth, rj = 588 × 10⁶ km = 3.93 AU

closest distance between Earth and Saturn, rs = 1.2 × 10⁹ km = 8.0 AU

where 1 AU = 1.5 × 10¹¹ m

Inserting the values:

F_{net} = G\frac{M_e\times 0.815 M_e}{(0.25AU)^2}+G\frac{M_e\times 318 M_e}{(3.93AU)^2}+G\frac{M_e\times 95.1 M_e}{(8.0AU)^2}\\ \Rightarrow F_{net} = \frac{(GM_e^2)}{(1AU)^2}(\frac{0.815}{0.25^2}+\frac{318}{3.93^2}+\frac{95.1}{8.0^2})=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11} \times (5.98\times 10^{24})^2}{(1.5\times 10^{11})^2}(35.1) = 3.7 \times 10^{-4} N

A negative charge -Q is placed inside the cavity of a hollow metal solid. The outside of the solid is grounded by connecting a c
tester [92]

Answer:

a)  + Q charge is inducce that compensates for the internal charge

b) There is no excess charge on the external face q_net = 0

c) E=0

Explanation:

Let's analyze the situation when a negative charge is placed inside the cavity, it repels the other negative charges, leaving the necessary positive charges to compensate for the -Q charge. The electrons that migrated to the outer part of the sphere, as it is connected to the ground, can pass to the earth and remain on the planet; therefore on the outside of the sphere the net charge remains zero.

With this analysis we can answer the specific questions

a)  + Q charge is inducce that compensates for the internal charge

b) There is no excess charge on the external face q_net = 0

c) If we create a Gaussian surface on the outside of the sphere the net charge on the inside of this sphere is zero, therefore there is no electric field, on the outside

d) If it is very reasonable and this system configuration is called a Faraday Cage

e) We cannot apply this principle to gravity since there are no particles that repel, in all cases the attractive forces.

In a certain process, the energy of the system decreases by 250 kJ. The process involves 480 kJ of work done on the system. Find
gregori [183]

Answer:

Q = - 730 KJ

730 KJ is transferred out of the system

Explanation:

According to the first law of thermodynamics, energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be transformed from one form to another.

For a particular process/system, the first law is interpreted as

ΔU = Q + W (depending on convention, some textbooks give this relation as ΔU = Q - W)

ΔU is the change in internal energy of the system, in my convention, it is positive if the internal energy increases and negative otherwise.

Q = Heat transferred into or out of the system. Q is positive for heat transferred into the system and negative for heat transferred out of the system.

W = workdone by the system or work done on the system. W is positive for workdone on the system and W is negative for when work is done by the system.

ΔU decreases by 250 KJ, that is, ΔU = - 250 KJ

Q = ?

W = 480 KJ (Work is done on the system)

- 250 = Q + 480

Q = - 250 - 480 = - 730 KJ

The heat is transferred out of the system.
