Answer:

gexp = 3.65 m/s²

Explanation:

The value of acceleration due to gravity changes with the altitude. The following formula gives the value of acceleration due to gravity at some altitude from the sea level:

gexp = g(1 - 2h/Re)

where,

gexp = expected value of g at altitude = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity at sea level = 9.8 m/s²

h = altitude = 2000 km = 2 x 10⁶ m

Re = Radius of Earth = 6.37 x 10⁶ m

Therefore,

gexp = (9.8 m/s²)(1 - 2*2 x 10⁶ m/6.37 x 10⁶ m)

<u>gexp = 3.65 m/s²</u>

An electromagnetic wave of intensity 150 W/m2 is incident normally on a rectangular black card with sides of 25 cm and 30 cm tha
LenKa [72]

Answer:

3.75 × 10⁻⁸ N

Explanation:

Given:

Intensity of the electromagnetic wave, I = 150 W/m²

Sides of the board = 25 cm (= 0.25 m) and 30 cm (= 0.30 m)

therefore,

the area of the rectangular box, A = 0.25 × 0.30 = 0.075 m²

Now,

force exerted on the card by the radiation, F = \frac{IA}{C}

here,

C is the speed of the light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

on substituting the respective values, we get

F = \frac{150\times0.075}{3\times10^8}

or

F = 3.75 × 10⁻⁸ N

What is the equivalent resistance between points A and C if R1=1430, R2=1350, R3=1100, R4=1350, and R5=1150.
Marianna [84]

R1 + R4 = 1430 + 1350 = 2780 = R14    series combination of R1 & R4

R2 + R5 = 1350 + 1150 = 2500 = R25

The circuit has been reduced to 3 resistors in parallel

R314 = 2780 * 1100 / (2780 + 1100) = 788  this is the resistance of the parallel combination of R14 and R3

R31425 = 2500 * 788 / (2500 + 788) = 599 which is the equivalent of the circuit  - you can also use the formula for 3 resistors in parallel but this seems simpler

A pendulum is swinging back and forth with a period of 2.0 seconds here on Earth. This pendulum is then brought to the Moon. Wha
LenKa [72]

Answer: The period of the pendulum will increase. Because of less gravity

Explanation:

Since the force of gravity is less on the Moon, the pendulum  would swing slower at the same length and angle and its frequency would be less. Hence more time period will be experienced by the pendulum. On the moon, the acceleration due to gravity g is less when compared to that of the earth.
