Is it true or false that because the earth has mass it also has a gravitational field

Physics

<span>It is true that because the earth has mass it also has a gravitational field.

Every other mass in Creation experiences a gravitational force that
attracts it toward the center of the Earth, and the Earth experiences
a gravitational force that attracts it to every other mass in Creation.  </span>

For the electric power transmission system shown in the figure above, what is the ratio ns/np for the step-up transformer? assum
Ann [662]
I am attaching the missing figure

If we assume 100% efficiency, this means that the input power of the transformer must be equal to the output power

We divide output/input

240,000/12,000 = 20

This means that the transformer has a turns ratio of 1:20

<span>ns/np = 20/1 = 20

The voltage is amplified 20 times by the transformer, but this also means that the current decreases by a factor of 20, so the total power remains the same.</span>

Suppose you are looking into the end of a long cylindrical tube in which there is a uniform magnetic field pointing away from yo
Otrada [13]

Answer:

If the magnitude of the field is decreasing with time the direction of the induced magnetic field is CLOCKWISE

Explanation

This is because If the magnetic field decreases with time, the electric field will be produced in order to oppose the change in line with lenz law. Thus The right hand rule can be applied to find that the direction of electric field is in the clockwise direction.

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pail of water. Jack, who’s mass is 75 kg, 1.5 times heavier than Jill’s mass, fell
Travka [436]

Answer:

<em>a) Jack does more work uphill</em>

<em>b) Numerically, we can see that Jill applied the most power downhill</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Jack's mass = 75 kg

Jill's mass = 1.5x = 75

Jill's mass = x = \frac{75}{1.5} = 50 kg

distance up hill = 15 m

a) work done by Jack uphill = mgh

where g = acceleration due to gravity= 9.81 m/s^2

work = 75 x 9.81 x 15 = <em>11036.25 J</em>

similarly,

Jill's work uphill = 50 x 9.81 x 15 = <em>7357.5 J</em>

<em>this shows that Jack does more work climbing up the hill</em>

<em></em>

b) assuming Jack's time downhill to be t,

then Jill's time = \frac{t}{3}

we recall that power is the rate in which work id done, i.e

P = \frac{work}{time}

For Jack, power = \frac{11036.25}{t}

For Jill, power =  \frac{3*7357.5}{t} =  \frac{22072.5}{t}

<em>Numerically, we can see that Jill applied the most power downhill</em>

When a highly coherent beam of light is directed against a very fine wire, the shadow formed behind it is not just that of a sin
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Option "D" is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is only optical illusion that best describes the formation of other multiple images which are not based on other scientific mechanism. Thank you.

The electric field inside a battery generates an electric potential difference of 12 V. The plates are separated by a distance o
Sergio [31]
The electric field across the plates is defined by

E = V / d .............. where V is the potential difference and d the distance that separates the plates.

E = 12 Volts/ 0.25 meters = 48 V/m
