Alex17521 [72]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

The force acting between two masses is given by :

F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{d^2}........(1)

Where

G is the universal gravitational constant

m_1\ and\ m_2 are masses

d is the distance between two masses

It is clear from equation (1) that the gravitational attraction between the bodies always increases if the masses of bodies increases and when the separation between masses decreases.

So, the correct answer is "the masses increase, and the distance between the centers of mass decreases". This is because the force of gravitation is directly proportional to the masses and inversely proportional to the separation.

A certain ideal gas has molar heat capacity at constant volume CV. A sample of this gas initially occupies a volume V0 at pressu
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

The processes are described on the image attached below. The isobaric process consists of an horizontal line, the adiabatic expansion is described by a polytropic curve:

P_{2} \cdot V_{2}^{\gamma} = P_{3} \cdot V_{3}^{\gamma}

Where:

\gamma = \frac{c_{p}}{c_{v}}

\gamma = 1 + \frac{R}{c_{v}}

Final pressure is:

P_{3} = P_{2}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{2}}{V_{3}}  \right)^{\gamma}

P_{3} = P_{o}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\gamma}

P_{3} = \frac{P_{o}}{2^{\gamma}}

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the s
yawa3891 [41]

Hello!

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the spring ?

Data:

E_{pe}\:(elastic\:potential\:energy) = 5184\:J

K\:(constant) = 16200\:N/m

x\:(displacement) =\:?

For a spring (or an elastic), the elastic potential energy is calculated by the following expression:

E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}

Where k represents the elastic constant of the spring (or elastic) and x the deformation or displacement suffered by the spring.

Solving:  

E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}

5184 = \dfrac{16200*x^2}{2}

5184*2 = 16200*x^2

10368 = 16200\:x^2

16200\:x^2 = 10368

x^{2} = \dfrac{10368}{16200}

x^{2} = 0.64

x = \sqrt{0.64}

\boxed{\boxed{x = 0.8\:m}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Answer:  

The displacement of the spring = 0.8 m
