Answer:

Fe = 9 x 10⁻⁹ N

Fg = 3.97 x 10⁻⁴⁶ N

Fe = 2.26 x 10³⁷ Fg

Explanation:

First we find electric force by Coulomb's Law as follows:

Fe = kq₁q₂/r²

where,

Fe = electric force = ?

k = Coulomb's Constant = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q₁ = q₂ = charges on electron and proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

r = distance between electron and proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

Therefore,

Fe = (9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)/(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁰ m)²

<u>Fe = 9 x 10⁻⁹ N </u>

Now we find gravitational force by Newton's Law of Gravitation as follows:

Fg = Gm₁m₂/r²

where,

Fg = gravitational force = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

m₁ = mass of electron = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg

m₂ = mass of proton = 1.673 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

r = distance between electron and proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

Therefore,

Fg = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg)(1.673 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)/(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁰ m)²

<u>Fg = 3.97 x 10⁻⁴⁶ N</u>

Dividing both forces:

Fe/Fg = (9 x 10⁻⁹ N)/(3.97 x 10⁻⁴⁶ N)

<u>Fe = 2.26 x 10³⁷ Fg</u>

An experiment is set up to test the angular resolution of an optical device when red light (wavelength ????r ) shines on an aper
Neko [114]

Explanation:

As per Rayleigh criterion, the angular resolution is given as follows:

\theta=\frac{1.22 \lambda}{D}

From this expression larger the size of aperture, smaller will be the value of angular resolution and hence, better will be the device i.e. precision for distinguishing two points at very high angular difference is higher.

What are two examples of goods and two examples of services
julsineya [31]

The goods and the services make up the basis of every economy. The goods can simply be defined as merchandise or possessions. The services can be defined as the actions through which help is provided, or work is done for someone else. Example of goods are the food and furniture, with the food being crucial for the survival of the people, while the furniture is an essential part of every home and its practicality and decor. Examples of services are teaching and car repairing. The teaching is crucial for the development of the societies, as through it the people get education, while the repairing of cars is very important as lot of people have them, can not afford to buy new ones all the time, and they need for their daily movement over longer distances.

The total resistance of the circuit <br>​
ZanzabumX [31]

The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of individual resistances. Voltage applied to a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops. The voltage drop across a resistor in a series circuit is directly proportional to the size of the resistor.

If you know the total current and the voltage across the whole circuit, you can find the total resistance using Ohm's Law: R = V / I. For example, a parallel circuit has a voltage of 9 volts and total current of 3 amps. The total resistance RT = 9 volts / 3 amps = 3 Ω

Current: The total circuit current is equal to the sum of the individual branch currents. Resistance: Individual resistances diminish to equal a smaller total resistance rather than add to make the total.
