Which of the following changes to the earth-sun system would reduce the magnitude of the force between them to one-fourth the va
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

-Reduce the mass of the earth to one-fourth its normal value.

-Reduce the mass of the sun to one-fourth its normal value.

-Reduce the mass of the earth to one-half its normal value and the mass of the sun to one-half its normal value.

Explanation:

The force (F) between two massive bodies (earth-sun system) is given by the following equation:

F=\frac{g*M_{e}*M_{s}}{r^{2}}

Where "g" is the gravitational constant "Me" is Earth's mass, "Ms" is the Sun's mass and "r" is the separation between the Earth and the Sun.

1-) If we reduce the mass of the earth to one-fourth its normal value:

F^{*} =\frac{g*\frac{M_{e}}{4} *M_{s}}{r^{2}}\\F^{*} =\frac{g*{M_{e}} *M_{s}}{4r^{2}}\\F^{*} =\frac{F}{4}

2-) Reduce the mass of the sun to one-fourth its normal value.

F^{*} =\frac{g*\frac{M_{s}}{4} *M_{e}}{r^{2}}\\F^{*} =\frac{g*{M_{s}} *M_{e}}{4r^{2}}\\F^{*} =\frac{F}{4}

3-) Reduce the mass of the earth to one-half its normal value and the mass of the sun to one-half its normal value.

F^{*} =\frac{g*\frac{M_{s}}{2}*\frac{M_{e} }{2}}{r^{2}}\\F^{*} =\frac{g*{M_{s}} *M_{e}}{(2*2)r^{2}}\\F^{*} =\frac{F}{4}

4-) Increase the separation between the earth and the sun to four times its normal value.

F^{*}=\frac{g*M_{e}*M_{s}}{(4r)^{2}}\\F^{*}=\frac{g*M_{e}*M_{s}}{16r^{2}}\\F^{*}=\frac{F }{16}\\.

Therefore, changes 1, 2 and 3 would reduce the magnitude of the force between them to one-fourth of the original value.

A camera gives a proper exposure when set to a shutter speed of 1/250 s at f-number F8.0. The photographer wants to change the s
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

F4.0

Explanation:

To obtain a shutter speed of 1/1000 s to avoid any blur motion the f-number should be changed to F4.0 because the light intensity goes up by a factor of 2 when the f-number is decreased by the square root of 2.

(a) calculate the speed of a proton after it accelerates from rest through a potential difference of 215 v. m/s (b) calculate th
bija089 [108]
<span>The proton differs from the electron in sign although they have the same value. Like the electron, a proton will gain 215 electron-volts of eV in Kinetic energy. So 1.602Ă—10^-19 J * 215 = 344.43 * 10^(-19) J. But K. E. = mv^2 / 2, so v^2 = 2 * K.E/m. The mass of a proton is 1.673 * 10^-27 kg. So v = âš(2 * 344.43 * 10^(-19))/1.673Ă—10^-27 = 688.86 * 10^(-19)/1.673Ă—10^(-27) = 411.75 * 10^(-19-(-27)) = âš411.75 * 10^(8) = 202196.56 Also for the electron we have v^2 = 2 * K.E/m but here mass, m, = 9.109 * 10^-31 kg. So we have v = âš(2 * 344.43 * 10^(-19)) / 9.109 * 10^-31 = 688.86 * 10^(-19)/ 9.109 * 10^-31 = 75.624 * 10^(-19 - (-31)) = 75.624 * 10^(21) and v = 2.749 * 10^11</span>

Which of the following is the best definition of an element?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

A. chemical substance whose atoms all have the same number of protons

Explanation:

An element is a substance which contains identical atoms that have the same number of protons in the nucleus.

Elements are arranged in the periodic table according to their atomic number (= number of protons): so atoms of different elements have a different number of protons in their nuclei.

For a neutral atom, the number of electrons around the nucleus is also equal to the number of protons.

Moreover, atoms of the same element can have a different number of neutrons, despite having the same number of protons - these atoms are called isotopes.
