Answer:

D. the masses of the objects and the distance between them

Explanation:

Gravitation is a force, a force doesn't care about the shape or density of objects, only about their masses... and distances.

And you can get it using the following equation:

$f = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{d^{2} }$

Where :

G is the universal gravitational constant : G = 6.6726 x 10-11N-m2/kg2

m represent the mass of each of the two objects

d is the distance between the centers of the objects.

A particle with charge − 2.74 × 10 − 6 C −2.74×10−6 C is released at rest in a region of constant, uniform electric field. Assum

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

241.7 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge of particle= $q=-2.74\times 10^{-6} C$

Kinetic energy of particle= $K_E=6.65\times 10^{-10} J$

Initial time= $t_1=6.36 s$

Final potential difference= $V_2=0.351 V$

We have to find the time t after that the particle is released and traveled through a potential difference 0.351 V.

We know that

$qV=K.E$

Using the formula

$2.74\times 10^{-6}V_1=6.65\times 10^{-10} J$

$V_1=\frac{6.65\times 10^{-10}}{2.74\times 10^{-6}}=2.43\times 10^{-4} V$

Initial voltage= $V_1=2.43\times 10^{-4} V$

$\frac{\initial\;voltage}{final\;voltage}=(\frac{initial\;time}{final\;time})^2$

Using the formula

$\frac{V_1}{V_2}=(\frac{6.36}{t})^2$

$\frac{2.43\times 10^{-4}}{0.351}=\frac{(6.36)^2}{t^2}$

$t^2=\frac{(6.36)^2\times 0.351}{2.43\times 10^{-4}}$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{(6.36)^2\times 0.351}{2.43\times 10^{-4}}}$

$t=241.7 s$

Hence, after 241.7 s the particle is released has it traveled through a potential difference of 0.351 V.

If an atomic nucleus were the size of a dime how far away might one of its electrons be?

mihalych1998 [28]

The radius of a nucleus of hydrogen is approximately $r_{n1}=1\cdot 10^{-15}m$ , while we can use the Borh radius as the distance of an electron from the nucleus in a hydrogen atom: $r_{e1}=5.3 \cdot 10^{-11}m$

The radius of a dime is approximately $r_{n2} = 9\cdot 10^{-3}m$ : if we assume that the radius of the nucleus is exactly this value, then we can find how far is the electron by using the proportion
$r_{n1}:r_{e1}=r_{n2}:r_{e2}$
from which we find
$r_{e2}= \frac{r_{e1} r_{n2}}{r_{n1}}= \frac{(5.3 \cdot 10^{-11}m)(9\cdot 10^{-3}m)}{1 \cdot 10^{-15}m}=477 m$

So, if the nucleus had the size of a dime, we would find the electron approximately 500 meters away.

A car’s engine provides a forward force of 500 N. It is opposed by a resistive force of 200 N. The car accelerates forwards for

wariber [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

W = Fd

Engine 500(20) = 10000 J

friction 200(-20) = -4000 J

Energy increase is 10000 - 4000 = 6000 J
