What is gravity at north pole, South pole and at different point on the equatorial regions. Give reasoning for your answers why

do you think it is different or same. Can you imagine same concept for the electric charge, yes or No

Answer:

The gravity at Equator is 9.780 m/s2 and the gravity at poles is 9.832 m/s2. The gravity at poles are bigger than at equator, principally because the Earth is not totally round. The gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the radius, that is the reason for the difference of gravity (The radius at Poles are smaller than at Equator).

If Earths would have a net charge Q. The Electric field of Earth would be inversely proportional to the square of the radius of Earth (Electric field definition for a charge), the same case as for gravity. So there would be a difference between the electric field at poles and equator, too.

A small object of mass 3.82 g and charge -16.5 µC is suspended motionless above the ground when immersed in a uniform electric f
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

2271.16N/C  upward

Explanation:

The diagram well illustrate all the forces acting on the mass. The weight is acting downward and the force is acting upward in other to balance the weight.since the question says it is motionless, then indeed the forces are balanced.

First we determine the downward weight using

W=mg\\g=9.81m/s^{2}

Hence for a mass of 3.82g 0r 0.00382kg we have the weight to be

W=0.00382kg*9.81m/s^{2}

W=0.0375N

To calculate the electric field,

E=f/q\\E=0.0375/16.5*10^{-6} \\E=2271.16N/C

Since the charge on the mass is negative, in order to generate upward force, there must be a like charge below it that is  repelling it, Hebce we can conclude that the electric field lines are upward.

Hence the magnitude of the electric force is 2271.16N/C and the direction is upward

2. A brick is sitting on a building 22 m high. It has a mass of 7.9 kg. What amount of potential
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

1703.24J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of brick  = 7.9kg

Height of building  = 22m

Unknown:

Potential energy of the brick  = ?

Solution:

The potential energy of a body is the energy at rest of the body. Mathematically;

 

         P.E = mgh

m is the mass of the brick

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the building

  Insert the given parameters and solve;

        P.E  = 7.9 x 9.8 x 22  = 1703.24J
