n deep space, sphere A of mass 47 kg is located at the origin of an x axis and sphere B of mass 110 kg is located on the axis at
1 answer:
Answer:
a)-1.014x J
b)3.296 x J
Explanation:
For Sphere A:
mass 'Ma'= 47kg
xa= 0
For sphere B:
mass 'Mb'= 110kg
xb=3.4m
a)the gravitational potential energy is given by
= -GMaMb/ d
= - 6.67 x
x 47 x 110/ 3.4 => -1.014x
J
b) at d= 0.8m (3.4-2.6) and =-1.014x
J
The sum of potential and kinetic energies must be conserved as the energy is conserved.
+
=
+
As sphere starts from rest and sphere A is fixed at its place, therefore is zero
=
+
The final potential energy is
= - GMaMb/d
Solving for ' '
=
+ GMaMb/d => -1.014x
+ 6.67 x
x 47 x 110/ 0.8
= 3.296 x

The brightness of the lamp is proportional to the current flowing through the lamp: the larger the current, the brighter the lamp.
The current flowing through the lamp is given by Ohm's law:
where
V is the potential difference across the lamp, which is equal to the emf of the battery, and R is the resistance of the lamp.
The problem says that the battery is replaced with one with lower emf. Looking at the formula, this means that V decreases: if we want to keep the same brightness, we need to keep I constant, therefore we need to decrease R, the resistance of the lamp.
