In introductory physics laboratories, a typical Cavendish balance for measuring the gravitational constant G uses lead spheres w

ith masses of 1.40 kg and 14.0 g whose centers are separated by about 2.30 cm. Calculate the gravitational force between these spheres, treating each as a particle located at the center of the sphere.

Answer:

The gravitational force F =2.47*10⁻⁹N

Explanation:

Given Data;

First mass m1 = 1.40kg

Second mass m2 = 14.0g = 14/1000 = 0.014kg

distance (r) = 2.30cm = 0.023m

Gravitational constant = 6.67* 10⁻¹¹N/m²kg²

gravitational force (F)?

For calculating the gravitational force, we use the formula;

F = (Gm₁m₂)/r²

Substituting into the formula, we have

F = (6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ * 1.40 * 0.014)/0.023²

   = 1.30732*10⁻¹²/5.29*10⁻⁴

   = 2.47*10⁻⁹N

Answer:

F=2.47*10^{-10} N

Explanation:

The gravitational force is calculated by using

F=G\frac{M_1M_2}{r^2}

G: Cavendish constant = 6.67*10^{-12}Nm^2/kg^2

r=2.30cm=0.023m

M1=1.4kg

M2=14.0g=0.014kg

By replacing we have

F=2.47*10^{-10} N

hope this helps!!

reviews the approach taken in problems such as this one. A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 0.916 km due east, 0
Verizon [17]

Answer:

Displacement: 2.230 km    Average velocity: 1.274\frac{km}{h}

Explanation:

Let's represent displacement by the letter S and the displacement in direction 49.7° as A. Displaement is a vector, so we need to decompose all the bird's displacement into their X-Y compoments. Let's go one by one:

  • 0.916 km due east is an horizontal direction and cane be seen as  direction towards the negative side of X-axis.
  • 0.928 km due south is a vertical direction and can be seen as a direction towards the negative side of Y-axis.
  • 3.52 km in a direction of 49.7° has components on X and Y  axes. It is necessary to break it down using trigonometry,

First of all. We need to sum all the X components and all the Y componets.

∑Sx = Ax -0.916 ⇒  ∑Sx = [tex]3.52cos(49.7) - 0.916

∑Sx = 1.361 km

∑Sy = Ay - 0.918 ⇒ ∑Sy = 3.52sin(49.7) - 0.918

∑Sy = 1.767

The total displacement is calculated using Pythagoeran therorem:

S_{total} =\sqrt{Sx^{2}+ Sy^{2} } ⇒

S_{total} = 2.230 km

With displacement calculated, we can find the average speed as follows:

V = S/t  ⇒  V = \frac{2.230}{1.750}

V = 1.274\frac{km}{h}

Compare the force of air resistance and the force of gravity on an object falling at its terminal velocity.
Sholpan [36]
The viscous force on an object moving through air is proportional to its velocity.
The only forces acting on an object when falling are air resistance and its weight itself. The weight acts vertically downwards whereas air resistance acts vertically upward.
Let F be the viscous force due to air molecules, B be buoyant force due to air and W be the weight of falling object. Initially, the velocity of falling object and hence the viscous force F is zero and the object is accelerated due to force
(W-B). Because of the acceleration the velocity increases and accordingly the viscous force also increases. At a certain instant, the viscous force becomes equal to W-B. The net force then becomes zero and the object falls with constant velocity. This constant velocity is called terminal velocity.
Thus at terminal velocity, air resistance and force of gravity becomes equal.
