The new gravitation force at the new location is 40 N

Explanation:

The weight of the astronaut is given by the equation

F=mg (1)

where

m is the mass of the astronaut

g is the acceleration of gravity

The acceleration of gravity at a certain distance r from the centre of the Earth is given by

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant and M is the Earth's mass. So we can rewrite eq.(1) as

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

When the astronaut is on the Earth's surface, r=R (where R is the Earth's radius), so his weight is

F=\frac{GMm}{R^2}=640 N

Later, he moves to another location where his distance from the Earth's surface is 3 times the previous distance, so the new distance from the Earth's centre is

r'=3R+R=4R

Therefore, the new weight is

F'=\frac{GMm}{(4R)^2}=\frac{1}{16}\frac{GMm}{R^2}=\frac{F}{16}

Which means that his weight has decreased by a factor 16: therefore, the new weight is

F'=\frac{640}{16}=40 N

According to Einsteins explanation, what causes gravitation?
olga2289 [7]
<span>Answer: Gravity is most accurately described by the general theory of relativity (proposed by Albert Einstein in 1915) which describes gravity not as a force, but as a consequence of the curvature of spacetime caused by the uneven distribution of mass.</span>

In order to transmit information via radio waves, the waves need to be changed somehow. For car radios this can happen in two wa
laila [671]

Answer: amplitude

Explanation: This describes the maximum amount of the displacement of a particle from it rest position. Usually, it is measured in metres

Since we are considering AM which is amplitude modulation, a technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for broadcasting information through a radio carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the carrier wave is diversified in proportion to that of the message signal being broadcasted.

Conductivities are often measured by comparing the resistance of a cell filled with the sample to its resistance when filled wit
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

1200 Sm^2mol^-1

Explanation:

Given data :

conductivity of water ( kwater ) = 76 mS m^-1 = 0.076 Sm^-1

conductivity of kcl (aq)( Kkcl ) = 1.1639 Sm^-1

Kkcl = 1.1639 - 0.076 = 1.0879  Sm^-1

Resistance = 33.21 Ω

where conductivity can be expressed as = \frac{Cell constant}{Resistance }

hence cell constant = conductivity * Resistance

                                 = 1.0879 * 33.21 = 36.13m^-1

conductivity of  CH3COOH ( kCH3COOH ) =  36.13 / 300

                                                                       = 0.120 Sm^-1

<u>Determine the molar conductivity of acetic acid</u>

= ( kCH3COOH * 1000 ) / C

C = 0.1 mol dm

=  (0.120 * 1000) / 0.1  =  1200 Sm^2mol^-1

If the magnitude of the magnetic field is 6.50 mT at a distance of 12.8 cm from a long straight current carrying wire, what is t
Lunna [17]

Answer: magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of 19.4 cm from the wire=4.29mT

Explanation:

According to  Biot-Savart law, A magnetic field generated by a current  carrying wire at a distance is represented as

B=μ₀I/ 2πr

B = magnetic field intensity 1000 mT =1T, 6.50mT = 6.50 X 10^-3T

 μ₀ =permeability of free space  4π × 10−7 H/m

I = current intensity

r = radius, 100cm = 1m, 12.8 cm= 12.8 x 10^-2m

6.50 X 10^-3 =  μ₀ x I/ 2 π X 12.8 X 10^-2

I =6.50  X 10 ^-3 X 2π  X  X 12.8 X 10^-2/  4π × 10−7 H/m

I= 4160 A

when the magnetic field is at 19.4 cm from the wire

B=μ₀I/ 2πr

= 4π × 10−7 H/m x4160/ 2π x 19.4 x 10^-2

=0.004288

= 4.29x 10 ^-3T

= 4.29mT
