This is a great problem if you like getting tied up in knots
and making smoke come out of your brain.
I found that it makes the problem a lot easier if I give the objects some
numbers. I'm going to say that the mass of Object 5 is 20 clods.
Let the mass of Mass of Object 5 be 20 clods .
Then . . .
-- The mass of Object 2 is double the mass of Object 5 = 40 clods.
-- The mass of Object 4 is half of the mass of Object 5 = 10 clods.
and
-- the mass of Object 3 is half of the mass of Object 4 = 5 clods.
So now, here are the masses:
Object #1 . . . . . unknown
Object #2 . . . . . 40 clods
Object #3 . . . . . 5 clods
Object #4 . . . . . 10 clods
Object #5 . . . . . 20 clods .
Now let's check out the statements, and see how they stack up:
Choice-A:
Object 3 and Object 5 exert the same gravitational force on Object 1.
Can't be.
Objects #3 and #5 have different masses, so they can't both
exert the same force on the same mass.
Choice-B.
Object 2 and Object 4 exert the same gravitational force on Object 1.
Can't be.
Objects #2 and #4 have different masses, so they can't both
exert the same force on the same mass.
Choice-C.
The gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 2 is greater than
the gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 4.
Yes ! Yay !
Object-2 has more mass than Object-4 has, so it must exert more force on
ANYTHING than Object-4 does, (as long as the distances are the same).
Choice-D.
The gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 3 is greater than the gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 5.
Can't be.
Object-3 has less mass than Object-5 has, so it must exert less force on
ANYTHING than Object-4 does, (as long as the distances are the same).
Conclusion:
If the DISTANCE is the same for all the tests, then Choice-C is
the only one that can be true.
Answer:
(a)
(b) 15 hours
Explanation:
half life, T = 12 hours
No = 19 g
(a) Let N be the amount remaining after time t.
Let λ be the decay constant.
The equation of radioactivity used here is given by
(b) N = 8 gram
Substitute the values in above equation
λ = 0.0577 per hour
So,
Take natural log on both the sides
- 0.0577 t = - 0.865
t = 15 hours
Answer:
acceleration of the rocket is given as
Explanation:
As we know that rocket starts from rest and then reach to final speed of 447 m/s after t = 1 min
so we have
so we have
Answer:
The time taken is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length of steel the wire is
The length of the copper wire is
The diameter of the wire is
The tension is
The time taken by the transverse wave to travel the length of the two wire is mathematically represented as
Where is the time taken to transverse the steel wire which is mathematically represented as
here is the density of steel with a value
So
And
is the time taken to transverse the copper wire which is mathematically represented as
here is the density of steel with a value
So
So
