Compare and contrast the geocentric view of the solar system with the heliocentric view of the solar system

Physics
1 answer:
Mandarinka [93]3 years ago
7 0
This is fairly easy. The earlier view of the solar system (geocentric) was all based on how other planets and the sun were constantly revolving the earth and we were completely stationary. The Heliocentric view has been proved to be accurate, and it is that the sun is stationary and the planets are revolving it. The similarities are that in that time, it was a continued belief that the planets were the Roman Gods, i.e. Jupiter, Neptune. Another thing is that they were correct in the Geocentric theory with the thought that the planets revolved around something.

A 2. 0 μf and a 4. 0 μf capacitor are connected in series across an 8. 0-v dc source. what is the charge on the 2. 0 μf capacito
Nezavi [6.7K]

voltage across 2.0μf capacitor is 5.32v

Given:

C1=2.0μf

C2=4.0μf

since two capacitors are in series there equivalent capacitance will be

[tex] \frac{1}{c} = \frac{1}{c1} + \frac{1}{c2} [/tex]

c =  \frac{c1 \times c2}{c1 + c2}

=  \frac{2 \times 4}{2 + 4}

=1.33μf

As the capacitance of a capacitor is equal to the ratio of the stored charge to the potential difference across its plates, giving: C = Q/V, thus V = Q/C as Q is constant across all series connected capacitors, therefore the individual voltage drops across each capacitor is determined by its its capacitance value.

Q=CV

given,V=8v

= 1.33 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}  \times 8

= 10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}

charge on 2.0μf capacitor is

\frac{Qeq}{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=  \frac{10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=5.32v

Two protons are maintained at a separation of nm. Calculate the electric potential due to the two particles at the midpoint betw
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The electric potential is approximately 5.8 V

The resulting direction of the electric field will lie on the line that joins the charges but since it is calculated in the midpoint and the charges are the same we can directly say that its magnitude is zero

Explanation:

The two protons can be considered as point charges. Therefore, the electric potential is given by the point charge potential:

\displaystyle{U=\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0r}} (1)

where q is the charge of the particle, \epsilon_0 the electric permittivity of the vacuum (I assuming the two protons are in a vacuum) and r is the distance from the point charge to the point where the potential is being measured. Because the electric potential is an scalar, we can simply add the contribution of the two potentials in the midpoint between the protons. Thus:

\displaystyle{U_{midpoint}=\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0r}}+\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0r}}=\frac{q}{2\pi \epsilon_0r}}}

Substituting the values q=1.602 \cdot10^{-19}\ C, \displaystyle{\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=8.99\cdot 10^9 N\cdot m^2\cdot C^{-2}} and r=0.5 \cdot 10^{-9} m we obtain:

\displaystyle{U_{midpoint}=\frac{q}{2\pi \epsilon_0r}}=5.759 \approx 5.8 V}

The resulting direction of the electric field will lie on the line that joins the charges but since it is calculated in the midpoint and the charges are the same we can directly say that its magnitude is zero.

For a particular type of motion, the velocity is zero but the speed is a nonzero quantity. Which statement can you make about th
masha68 [24]

Answer:

because speed is the modulus of velocity which is a vector

the velocity to be zero it must be a round trip

Explanation:

This is because speed is the modulus of velocity which is a vector.

For the velocity to be zero it must be a round trip, therefore the resulting vector zero

On the other hand, the speed of the module is the same in both directions
