Sir Issac Newton developed the Universal law of Gravitation.

<u>Explanation :</u>

With the interesting quest for the answer why does the apply fall from a tree on the Earth, one of the wisest scientists Sir Issac Newton started investigating the action and thus developed the Universal law of Gravitation by estimating what caused the motionless apply to accelerate towards the Earth.

According to his second law of motions, an objects which are at rest (apply attached to the twig of the tree) could get in motion (fall towards the Earth) only through an external force exerted on him by the Earth. He called this force has “Gravity” or the “Gravitational Force”.

Compute the size of the charge necessary for two spheres separated by 1m to be attached with the force of 1N. How many electrons

yarga [219]

Answer:

$q\approx 6.6\cdot 10^{13}~electrons$

Explanation:

<u>Coulomb's Law</u>

The force between two charged particles of charges q1 and q2 separated by a distance d is given by the Coulomb's Law formula:

$\displaystyle F=k\frac{q_1q_2}{d^2}$

Where:

$k=9\cdot 10^9\ N.m^2/c^2$

q1, q2 = the objects' charge

d= The distance between the objects

We know both charges are identical, i.e. q1=q2=q. This reduces the formula to:

$\displaystyle F=k\frac{q^2}{d^2}$

Since we know the force F=1 N and the distance d=1 m, let's find the common charge of the spheres solving for q:

$\displaystyle q=\sqrt{\frac{F}{k}}\cdot d$

Substituting values:

$\displaystyle q=\sqrt{\frac{1}{9\cdot 10^9}}\cdot 1$

$q = 1.05\cdot 10^{-5}~c$

This charge corresponds to a number of electrons given by the elementary charge of the electron:

$q_e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}~c$

Thus, the charge of any of the spheres is:

$\displaystyle q = \frac{1.05\cdot 10^{-5}~c}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}~c}$

$\mathbf{q\approx 6.6\cdot 10^{13}~electrons}$

Twin brothers, Andy and Brian, can mow their grandparents lawn together in 1212 minutes. Brian would mow the lawn by himself

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

It will take Andy 1.198minutes to mow the lawn and it will take Brian 1,209.98minutes to mow the same lawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the simultaneous equation concept, let A denote Andy and B be Brian

Andy and Brian can mow the lawn for 1212minutes i.e A+B = 1212..eqn 1

If Brian would mow the lawn by himself in 1010 minutes more than it would take Andy, this means B=1010A...eqn 2.

Substituting eqn 2 into eqn 1

Equation 1 becomes

A+1010A=1212

1011A=1212

A=1212/1011

A=1.198

B = 1010×1.198

B=1,209.98

Therefore, It will take Andy 1.198minutes to mow the lawn and it will take Brian 1,209.98minutes to mow the same lawn.

When the displacement in SHM is equal to 1/3 of the amplitude xm, what fraction of the total energy is (a) kinetic energy and (b

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Displacement is $\frac{1}{3}$ of Amplitude

i.e. $x=\frac{A}{3}$ , where A is maximum amplitude

Potential Energy is given by

$U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$U=\frac{1}{2}k(\frac{A}{3})^2$

$U=\frac{1}{18}kA^2$

Total Energy of SHM is given by

$T.E.=\frac{1}{2}kA^2$

Total Energy=kinetic Energy+Potential Energy

$K.E.=\frac{1}{2}kA^2 -\frac{1}{18}kA^2$

$K.E.=\frac{8}{18}kA^2$

Potential Energy is $\frac{1}{8}$ th of Total Energy

Kinetic Energy is $\frac{8}{9}$ of Total Energy

(c)Kinetic Energy is $0.5\times \frac{1}{2}kA^2$

$P.E.=\frac{1}{4}kA^2$

$\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{4}kA^2$

$x=\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}$
