The acceleration due to gravity at the north pole of Neptune is approximately 11.2 m/s2. Neptune has mass 1.02×1026 kg and radiu

s 2.46×104 km and rotates once around its axis in a time of about 16 h.
a)What is the gravitational force on a 4.60-kg object at the north pole of Neptune? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
b)What is the apparent weight of this same object at Neptune's equator? (Note that Neptune's "surface" is gaseous, not solid, so it is impossible to stand on it.) Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Who needs to know physics when they are making a satellite
vladimir2022 [97]
First satellite was Sputnik and it was a race then to send satellites!! Everyone starts experimenting how to launch.

first try was on a dog , Laika !! It was send to space as it is long after sputnik is placed in orbit !!

Now you know everyone knows rocket science and the most active are ISRO (India) and NASA (USA) !!

Because you know that gravity is in m/s^2 so, period will be measured in seconds. You know the cable is 12m long and gravity is 9.81 solve for T (period) 2π12sqrt(9.81)=6.94922

Answer:

660 J/kg/°C

Explanation:

Heat lost by metal = heat gained by water

-m₁C₁ΔT₁ = m₂C₂ΔT₂

-(0.45 kg) C₁ (21°C − 80°C) = (0.70 kg) (4200 J/kg/°C) (21°C − 15°C)

C₁ = 660 J/kg/°C

Two charges, qA and qB, are separated by a distance, d, and exert a force, F, on each other. Analyze Coulomb's law and answer th
maria [59]

Answer: a. F doubled

b. F reduced by one-quarter i.e

1/4*(F)

c. 1/9*(F)

d. F increased by a factor of 4 i.e 4*F

e. F reduces 3/4*(F)

Explanation: Coulombs law states the force F of attraction/repulsion experience by two charges qA and qB is directly proportional to thier product and inversely proportional to the square of distance d between them. That is

F = k*(qA*qB)/d²

a. If qA is doubled therefore the force is doubled since they are directly proportional.

b. If qA and qB are half, that means thier new product would be qA/2)*qB/2 =qA*qB/4

Which means the product of charge is divided by 4 so the force would be divided by 4 too since they are directly proportional.

c. If d is tripped that is multiplied by 3. From the formula new d would be (3*d)²=9d² but force is inversely proportional to d² so instead of multiplying by 9 the force will be divided by 9

d. If d is cut into half that is divided by 2. The new d would be (d/2)²=d²/4. So d² is divided by 4 so the force would be multiplied by 4

e. If qA is tripled that is multiplied by 3. F would be multiplied by 3 also, if at the same time d is doubled (2*d)²= 4*d² . Force would be divided by 4 at same time. So we have,

3/4*F
