How many times did thomas edison fail before inventing the lightbulb

Physics
1 answer:
Rom4ik [11]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

he failed thousands of times

Explanation:

There is no known number for his failings. Edison may have failed in many of his experiments and in his schooling, but he had something better working in his favor. He had great determination and persistence.

He failed thousands of times in an attempt to develop an electric light, the great Edison simply viewed each unsuccessful experiment as the elimination of a solution that wouldn’t work, thereby moving him that much closer to a successful solution.

Answer:

3.64×10⁸ m

3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

Explanation:

Let's define some variables:

M₁ = mass of the Earth

r₁ = r = distance from the Earth's center

M₂ = mass of the moon

r₂ = d − r = distance from the moon's center

d = distance between the Earth and the moon

When the gravitational fields become equal:

GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²

M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d − r)²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d² − 2dr + r²)

M₁ (d² − 2dr + r²) = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + M₁ r² = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + (M₁ − M₂) r² = 0

d² − 2d r + (1 − M₂/M₁) r² = 0

Solving with quadratic formula:

r = [ 2d ± √(4d² − 4 (1 − M₂/M₁) d²) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − (1 − M₂/M₁)) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − 1 + M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

When we plug in the values, we get:

r = 3.64×10⁸ m

If the moon wasn't there, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity would be:

g = GM / r²

g = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) / (3.64×10⁸ m)²

g = 3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

People living at Earth’s equator are traveling at a constant speed of about 1,670 km/h as Earth spins on its axis. What are thes
Vlada [557]
The people living around the equator experience acceleration. Acceleration is the change in speed or/and direction. When on a rotating body, the speed does not change it is only the direction that changes as it rotates.When on a rotating body you do not have to change speed but only direction. In a normal situation when you are traveling on a circle you will never have a straight line.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:4-strikes the plane at same time as the other body

Explanation:

Given

If both bodies is falling on a horizontal plane and second body is given an acceleration in horizontal direction then it does not change the time to reach the Horizontal Plate as there is no change in vertical direction.

Horizontal acceleration will give only horizontal range and horizontal velocity.
