The planet Mars has a mass of 6.1 × 1023 kg and radius of 3.4 × 106 m. What is the acceleration of an object in free fall near t

Oksanka [162]

The acceleration due to gravity of Mars is $3.5\ m / s^{2}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

As per universal law of gravity, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. But in the present case, the gravity need to be determined between Mars and the object on Mars. Since the mass of Mars is greater than the mass of any object. Thus,

$\text {Gravitational force of planet}=\frac{G M m}{R^{2}}$

Here, G is the gravitational constant, R is the radius of Mars and M, m is the mass of Mars and the object respectively..

Also, according to Newton’s second law of motion, the acceleration of any object will be equal to the ratio of force exerted on it to the mass of the object.

So in order to determine the acceleration due to gravity of Mars, divide the gravitational force of Mars by mass of object on the surface of Mars.

$Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity\ of\ mars =\frac{\text {Gravitational force of Mars}}{m \text { of object }}$

$Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity\ of\ mars =\frac{G M m}{R^{2} \times m}=\frac{G M}{R^{2}}$

$\text { Acceleration due to gravity of mars }=\frac{6.67259 \times 10^{-11} \times 6.1 \times 10^{23}}{3.4 \times 3.4 \times 10^{12}}=\frac{40.703 \times 10^{12}}{11.56 \times 10^{12}}$

$\text { Acceleration }=3.5\ \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

I need both parts please (a) Given a material with an attenuation coefficient (a) of 0.6/cm, what is the intensity of a beam (wi

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

After it has traveled through 1 cm : $I(1 \ cm) = 0.5488 I_0$

After it has traveled through 2 cm : $I(2 \ cm) = 0.3012 I_0$

After it has traveled through 1 cm : $od( 1\ cm) = 0.2606$

After it has traveled through 2 cm : $od( 2\ cm) = 0.5211$

Explanation:

For this problem, we can use the Beer-Lambert law. For constant attenuation coefficient $\mu$ the formula is:

$I(x) = I_0 e^{-\mu x}$

where I is the intensity of the beam, $I_0$ is the incident intensity and x is the length of the material traveled.

For our problem, after travelling 1 cm:

$I(1 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 0.6 \frac{1}{cm} \ 1 cm}$

$I(1 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 0.6}$

$I(1 \ cm) = 0.5488 \ I_0$

After travelling 2 cm:

$I(2 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 0.6 \frac{1}{cm} \ 2 cm}$

$I(2 \ cm) = I_0 e^{- 1.2}$

$I(2 \ cm) = 0.3012 \ I_0$

The optical density od is given by:

$od(x) = - log_{10} ( \frac{I(x)}{I_0} )$ .

So, after travelling 1 cm:

$od( 1\ cm) = - log_{10} ( \frac{0.5488 \ I_0}{I_0} )$

$od( 1\ cm) = - log_{10} ( 0.5488 )$

$od( 1\ cm) = - ( - 0.2606)$

$od( 1\ cm) = 0.2606$

After travelling 2 cm:

$od( 2\ cm) = - log_{10} ( \frac{0.3012 \ I_0}{I_0} )$

$od( 2\ cm) = - log_{10} ( 0.3012 )$

$od( 2\ cm) = - ( - 0.5211)$

$od( 2\ cm) = 0.5211$

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 22 and its mass number is 96?

Dovator [93]

1. The mass number is protons + neutrons = mass number. In this case, we have protons + neutron = 164.The atomic number is simply the number of protons so we have 43 + neutrons = 164. Subtracting 43 from both sides we get neutrons = 121.
2. = 4

3. The number of protons in the nucleus does not equal the number of neutrons.

A=mass number:
Z=atomic number (= number of protons)
N=number of neutrons:

A=Z+N

If the number of protons in the nucleus is equal the number of neutrons , we would have an even mass number; because Z=N=x; then A=x+x=2x (this is always an even number) but 23 is an odd number, therefore the number of protons in the nucleus does not equal the number of neutrons.
