An object of mass 0.50 kg is transported to the surface of Planet X where the object's weight is measured to be 20 N. The radius

of the planet is 4.0 ´ 106 m. What free fall accerleration will the 0.5 kg object experience when at the surface of Planet X. What is the mass of Planet X? (G = 6.67 ´ 10-11 N × m2/kg2)

Explanation:

The free fall acceleration is:

F = ma

20 N = (0.50 kg) a

a = 40 m/s²

The mass of Planet X is:

F = GMm / r²

20 N = (6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²) M (0.50 kg) / (4.0×10⁶ m)²

M = 9.6×10²⁴ kg

Uest<br>1. State Newton's law of cooling.​
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Newton's law of cooling states that the rate of heat loss of a body is directly proportional to the difference in the temperatures between the body and its surroundings. The law is frequently qualified to include the condition that the temperature difference is small and the nature of heat transfer mechanism remains the same. As such, it is equivalent to a statement that the heat transfer coefficient, which mediates between heat losses and temperature differences, is a constant. This condition is generally met in heat conduction (where it is guaranteed by Fourier's law) as the thermal conductivity of most materials is only weakly dependent on temperature. In convective heat transfer, Newton's Law is followed for forced air or pumped fluid cooling, where the properties of the fluid do not vary strongly with temperature, but it is only approximately true for buoyancy-driven convection, where the velocity of the flow increases with temperature difference. Finally, in the case of heat transfer by thermal radiation, Newton's law of cooling holds only for very small temperature differences.

When stated in terms of temperature differences, Newton's law (with several further simplifying assumptions, such as a low Biot number and a temperature-independent heat capacity) results in a simple differential equation expressing temperature-difference as a function of time. The solution to that equation describes an exponential decrease of temperature-difference over time. This characteristic decay of the temperature-difference is also associated with Newton's law of cooling

If a 6V battery is connected to a light bulb whose resistance is 55,000Ω How much current will flow in the circuit?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Current, I = 0.000109 Amps

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 6V

Resistance = 55,000 Ohms

To find the current flowing through the circuit;

Ohm's law states that at constant temperature, the current flowing in an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance in the electrical circuit.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is given by the formula;

V = IR

Where;

V represents voltage measured in voltage.

I represents current measured in amperes.

R represents resistance measured in ohms.

Making current the subject of formula, we have;

I = \frac {V}{R}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

I = \frac {6}{55000}

Current, I = 0.000109 Amps
