Answer:

A. It makes astronauts weightless.

Explanation:

Gravity does not make astronauts feel weightless. Astronauts are weightless because they are orbiting at the same rate as their shuttle.

Although the force of gravity weakens as one moves away from the earth surface, it does not mean that this force is absent in orbit

Gravitational force has a constant acceleration value near the earth surface which is commonly known to be 9.8m/s².
It is a force of attraction tending to hold and bind bodies together so far they have mass.
This force keeps every thing from escaping space-ward from the earth surface.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

a) No, Two vectors with different magnitudes can never add up to zero.

b) Yes, Three or more vectors with different magnitudes can add up to zero.

Explanation:

a) No, Two vectors with different magnitudes can never add up to zero.

Given vector A and B

A = (x1,y1,z1) and B = (x2,y2,z2)

For A + B = 0

This conditions must be satisfied.

x1 + x2 = 0

y1 + y2 = 0

z1 + z2 = 0

Therefore, for those conditions to be meet the magnitude of A must be equal to that of B.

b) Yes, Three or more vectors with different magnitudes can add up to zero.

For example, three forces acting at equilibrium like supporting the weight of a person with two different ropes.

W = T1 + T2

Where;

W = Weight

T1 = tension of wire 1

T2 = tension of wire 2

A horizontal beam of electrons initially moving at 4.0×10^7 m/s is deflected vertically by the vertical electric field between o

givi [52]

Answer:

$1.77\times 10^{-7}\ C/m^2$

0.000439077936334 m

Explanation:

q = Charge of electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

E = Electric field = $2\times 10^{4}\ N/C$

$\epsilon_0$ = Permittivity of free space = $8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$

d = Distance between plates = 2 cm (assumed)

m = Mass of electron = $9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

The beam consists of electrons which means it has negative charge this means the upper plates will be positive and the lower plate will be negative.

The direction is upper to lower lower plate.

$\epsilon_0$ = Permittivity of free space = $8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m$

Electric flux is given by

$\phi=\epsilon_0E\\\Rightarrow \phi=8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 2\times 10^{4}\\\Rightarrow \phi=1.77\times 10^{-7}\ C/m^2$

The charge per unit area on the plates is $1.77\times 10^{-7}\ C/m^2$

Deflection is given by

$s=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{qE}{m}(\dfrac{d}{v})^2\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2\times 10^4}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}(\dfrac{0.02}{4\times 10^7})^2\\\Rightarrow s=0.000439077936334\ m$

The deflection is 0.000439077936334 m
