A solar system has the five planets shown below. The mass of each planet is proportion

Physics
1 answer:
slava [35]4 years ago

Answer:

Planet C

Explanation:

The figure of the problem is missing: find it in attachment.

The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by the equation:

F=\frac{Gm_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

In this problem, we have four planets around planet X, and the mass of each planet is proportional to its size in the figure.

As we can see from the previous equation, the magnitude of the gravitational force is proportional to the mass of the planets: therefore, the planet with largest mass will exert the largest gravitational force on planet X.

From the figure, we see that planet C has the largest size, so the largest mass: therefore, planet C exerts the greatest gravitational force on planet X.

A 9.0-kg bowling ball on a horizontal, frictionless surface experiences a net force of 6.0 n. what will be its acceleration?
Vladimir [108]

This question involves the concepts of Newton's Second Law of Motion.

The acceleration of the bowling ball will be "0.67 m/s²".

<h3>Newton's Second Law of Motion</h3>

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, when an unbalanced force is applied on an object, it produces an acceleration in it, in the direction of the applied force. This acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Mathematically,

F=ma\\\\a=\frac{F}{m}

where,

  • a = acceleration = ?
  • F = Magnitude of the applied force = 6 N
  • m = Mass of the ball = 9 kg

Therefore,

a=\frac{6\ N}{9\ kg}

a = 0.67 m/s²

You are trying to overhear a juicy conversation, but from your distance of 24.0m , it sounds like only an average whisper of 40.
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The distance is r_2  =  0.24 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  distance from the conversation is r_1    =  24.0 \ m

       The  intensity of  the sound at your position is  \beta _1 =  40 dB

        The  intensity at the sound at the new position is  \beta_2 =  80.0dB

Generally the intensity in  decibel is  is mathematically represented as

      \beta  =  10dB log_{10}[\frac{d}{d_o} ]

The intensity is  also mathematically represented as

      d =  \frac{P}{A}

So

    \beta  =  10dB *  log_{10}[\frac{P}{A* d_o} ]

=>   \frac{\beta}{10}  =  log_{10} [\frac{P}{A (l_o)} ]

From the logarithm definition

=>    \frac{P}{A  *  d_o}  =  10^{\frac{\beta}{10} }

=>      P =  A (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta }{ 10} } ]

Here P is the power of the sound wave

 and  A is the cross-sectional area of the sound wave  which is generally in spherical form

Now the power of the sound wave at the first position is mathematically represented as

               P_1 =  A_1 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ]

Now the power of the sound wave at the second  position is mathematically represented as

               P_2 =  A_2 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]

Generally  power of the wave is constant at both positions  so  

    A_1 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ]  = A_2 (d_o ) [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]

      4 \pi r_1 ^2   [10^{\frac{\beta_1 }{ 10} } ]  = 4 \pi r_2 ^2   [10^{\frac{\beta_2 }{ 10} } ]

        r_2 =  \sqrt{r_1 ^2 [\frac{10^{\frac{\beta_1}{10} }}{ 10^{\frac{\beta_2}{10} }} ]}

       substituting value

        r_2 =   \sqrt{ 24^2 [\frac{10^{\frac{ 40}{10} }}{10^{\frac{80}{10} }} ]}

        r_2  =  0.24 \  m
