Answer:

The mass of Uranium present in a 1.2mg sample is 4.8 \cdot 10^{-6}\,mg

Explanation:

The ration between Uranium mass and total sample mass is: \frac{4g}{1000kg} =\frac{4g}{1000000g}=\frac{1}{250000}

For a sample of mass 1.2 mg, the amount of uranium is:

1.2\, mg \cdot \frac{1}{250000}=4.8 \cdot 10^{-6}\,mg

ExtremeBDS [4]

Hi there!

Recall the following:

V \text{ (Electric Potential Energy) } = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r}\\\\F_E = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

k = Coulomb's Constant (Jm/C²)

q = Charge (C)
r = distance between charges (m)

To calculate the electric force between the two charges, we can simply divide by another 'r' (distance):

F_E = \frac{70}{0.049} = \boxed{1428.57 \mu J}

A box with the mass of 15 kg is lifted to a shelf, how much force is needed?
viva [34]
The object has a mass of 15 kilograms. Therefore, it weighs 147 newtons on Earth, where gravitational acceleration is 9.8 meters per second per second. To counteract gravity, the acting force needs to be at least 147 newtons, It has to move 3 meters upward. When multiplying force by distance, the product comes to 441 joules, where joules are the standard unit of work.

Why does the gravitational field strength increase with latitude
otez555 [7]
The second major reason for the difference in gravity at differentlatitudes is that the Earth's equatorial bulge (itself also caused by centrifugalforce from rotation) causes objects at the Equator to be farther from the planet's centre than objects at the poles.

qaws [65]

Answer:

The height will be 4 times.

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed at the bottom of the hill doubled.

We need to calculate the height

Using conservation of energy

K.E_{t}+P.E_{t}=K.E_{b}+P.E_{b}

K.E_{b}=P.E_{t}

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

\dfrac{1}{2}m(4v^2)=mgh

Therefore,

P.E = mg(4h)

Here, m and g are constant

Hence, The height will be 4 times.
