The weight of an object on a planet depends not only on its mass but also on its distance from the planets center this table lis

ts weight of 80 kg on each planet in the solar system Uranus has more than 14 times as much mass as earth yet the gravitational force is less explain how this could be

You just pointed out that the gravitational force also depends
on the distance from the planet's center. The radius of Uranus
is about 4 times the Earth's radius.  That fact alone means that
the gravitational force on the surface is 1/4² = 1/16 its value on
Earth's surface.  So increasing the planet's mass by a factor of
14 doesn't compensate for the 1/16 reduction, and the gravitational
force on Uranus is less than on Earth.

What is the longest wavelength that can be observed in the third order for a transmission grating having 5200 slits/cm?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

641 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

A transmission grating has 5200 slits/cm.

We need to find the longest wavelength that can be observed in the third order. Using grating equation as follows :

d\sin\theta=m\lambda ...(1)

d is slit spacing

No fo slit per unit length :

N={5200}\ slit/cm\\\\=520000\ slits/m

We know that, N = 1/d

For longest wavelength, θ = 90°

From equation (1)

\dfrac{\sin\theta}{m\lambda}=\dfrac{1}{d}\\\\520000=\dfrac{\sin(90)}{3\lambda}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{1}{520000\times 3}\\\\=6.41\times 10^{-7}\ m\\\\=641\ nm

Hence, the longest wavelength in third order for a transmission grating is 641 nm.

Newtons law of gravitation is called a universal law, why?​
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

......................

Explanation:

It is called so because it is applicable on all bodies having mass, and the bodies will be governed by the same law, that is newton's law of gravitation. Thus, as it is applicable universally, it is called as universal law.
