The word atom comes from a Greek word that means “able to duplicate”.

<span>The statement, The word atom comes from a Greek word that means “able to duplicate”, is false. The greek word for atom is atomos. The a- in atom means “not” and –tom means “cut”. So it is not ot cut or it cannot be cut. It is common definition is indivisibility. This definition is defined by the philosopher Democritus. He observed that as he cut the sugar cube into smaller fraction, it reduces to nothing that cannot be seen in the eye. And so he proposed that definition.</span>

The center of the Hubble space telescope is 6940 km from Earth’s center. If the gravitational force between Earth and the telesc

Law Incorporation [45]

The gravitational force between two objects is given by:
$F=G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is the separation between the two objects

The distance of the telescope from the Earth's center is $r=6940 km=6.94 \cdot 10^6 m$ , the gravitational force is $F=9.21 \cdot 10^4 N$ and the mass of the Earth is $m_1=5.98 \cdot 10^{24} kg$ , therefore we can rearrange the previous equation to find m2, the mass of the telescope:
$m_2 = \frac{Fr^2}{Gm_1}= \frac{(9.21 \cdot 10^4 N)(6.94\cdot 10^6)^2}{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24})} =11121 kg$

A stone is dropped from the

ICE Princess25 [194]

Height=h=500m
Acceleration=g=10m/s^2
Initial velocity=u=0
Speed of sound=c=340m/s
TIME TAKEN BY STONE TO HIT WATER=t
Time taken by sound to hear back=T

Now

$\\ \sf\longmapsto h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto h=0t+\dfrac{1}{2}10t^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 500=5t^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto t^2=100$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto t=10s$

Now

$\\ \sf\longmapsto h=cT$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{h}{c}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{500}{340}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto T=1.47\approx 1.5s$

Total time:-

$\\ \sf\longmapsto T_{net}=t+T=10+1.5=11.5s$

Shrinking Loop. A circular loop of flexible iron wire has an initial circumference of 168 cm , but its circumference is decreasi

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

103.1 V

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial circumference=C=168 cm

$\frac{dC}{dt}=-15cm/s$

Magnetic field,B=0.9 T

We have to find the magnitude of the emf induced in the loop after exactly time 8 s has passed since the circumference of the loop started to decrease.

Magnetic flux= $\phi=BA=B(\pi r^2)$

Circumference,C= $2\pi r$

$r=\frac{C}{2\pi}$

$r=\frac{168}{2\pi}$ cm

$\frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\pi}\frac{dC}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\pi}(-15)=-\frac{15}{2\pi} cm/s$

$\int dr=-\int \frac{15}{2\pi}dt$

$r=-\frac{15}{2\pi}t+C$

When t=0

$r=\frac{168}{2\pi}$

$\frac{168}{2\pi}=C$

$r=-\frac{15}{2\pi}t+\frac{168}{2\pi}$

E= $-\frac{d\phi}{dt}=-\frac{d(B\pi r^2)}{dt}=-2\pi rB\frac{dr}{dt}$

$E=-2\pi(-\frac{5}{2\pi}t+\frac{168}{2\pi})B\times -\frac{15}{2\pi}$

t=8 s

B=0.9

$E=2\pi\times \frac{15}{2\pi}\times 0.9(-\frac{15}{2\pi}(8)+\frac{168}{2\pi})$

$E=103.1 V$

A crate filled with delicious junk food rests on a horizontal floor. Only gravity and the support force of the floor act on it,

stealth61 [152]

The words "... as shown ..." tell us that there's a picture that goes along
with this question, and you decided not to share it. That's sad and
disappointing, but I think the question can be answered without seeing
the picture.

The net force on the crate is zero. Evidence for this is that fact that
the crate is just sitting there. If the net force on an object is not zero,
then the object is accelerating ... it's either speeding up, slowing down,
or its the direction of its motion is changing. If none of these things is
happening, then the net force on the object must be zero.
