Distinguish between the mass of an object and the object's weight

Physics

Rashid [163]3 years ago

The mass of an object is the amount of substance it is made up of or it contains but the weight of that object is the force exerted by that object as a result of gravity.The S.I. unit for mass is kilograms but weight is measured in Newtons. Mass is constant or does not change but weight depends on the gravity of the place.

A typical atomic polarizability is 1 × 10-40 (C·m)/(N/C). If the q in p = qs is equal to the proton charge e, what charge separa
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

s = 6.25 10⁻²² m

Explanation:

Polarizability is the separation of electric charges in a structure, in the case of the atom it is the result of the separation of positive charges in the nucleus and the electrons in their orbits, macroscopically it is approximated by

                p = q s

               s = p / q

let's calculate

              s = 1 10⁻⁴⁰ / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹

              s = 0.625 10⁻²¹ m

              s = 6.25 10⁻²² m

We see that the result is much smaller than the size of the atom, therefore this simplistic model cannot be taken to an atomic scale.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

9.60 m/s

Explanation:

The escape speed of an object from the surface of a planet/asteroid is given by:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet/asteroid

R is the radius of the planet/asteroid

In this problem we have

\rho = 2.02\cdot 10^6 g/m^3 is the density of the asteroid

V=3.09\cdot 10^{12}m^3 is the volume

So the mass of the asteroid is

M=\rho V=(2.02\cdot 10^6 g/m^3)(3.09\cdot 10^{12} m^3)=6.24\cdot 10^{18} g=6.24\cdot 10^{15} kg

The asteroid is approximately spherical, so its volume can be written as

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3

where R is the radius. Solving for R,

R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi}}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3(3.09\cdot 10^{12} m^3)}{4\pi}}=9036 m

Substituting M and R inside the formula of the escape speed, we find:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(6.24\cdot 10^{15})}{(9036)}}=9.60 m/s
