Answer:

I hope this answer is correct

Explanation:

Difference Between Gravitation and Gravity

Gravitation is referred to the force acting between two bodies which can be represented as the F=(GM1M2)/R2 which means gravitation force is proportional to the product of the masses of the object 1 and object 2 and is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The gravitational force between earth and any object is known as gravity.

Difference Between Gravitation and Gravity

Gravitation Gravity

It is a universal force It is not a universal force

It is a weak force It is a strong force

The force is F=(GM1M2)/R2 (G= gravitational constant) The force is F=mg (g=acceleration due to gravity)

The direction of gravitational force lies in the radial direction from the masses The direction of the force of gravity is along the line joining the earth’s center and the center of the body. Its direction is towards the center of the earth.

The force can be 0 when the separation between bodies is infinity The force of gravity can be 0 at the center of the earth

It requires two masses It requires only one mass

Suppose that the electric field in the Earth's atmosphere is E = 8.60 101 N/C, pointing downward. Determine the electric charge
asambeis [7]

Answer:

q = 3.87 x 10⁵ C

Explanation:

given,

Electric field, E = 8.60 x 10¹ = 86 N/C

radius of earth, R = 6371 Km = 6.371 x 10⁶ m

Coulomb constant, K = 9 x 10⁹ N · m²/C²

Charge on the earth = ?

the electric field at the point

E =\dfrac{kq}{r^2}

q =\dfrac{Er^2}{k}

inserting all the values

q =\dfrac{86\times (6.371\times 10^6)^2}{9\times 10^{9}}

      q = 3.87 x 10⁵ C

The electric charge on the earth is equal to 3.87 x 10⁵ C

How much heat is required to heat 2 kg of water from 25°C to 40°C?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

126000 J

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁).................. Equation 1

Where Q = Amount of heat, c = specifc heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, t₁ = Initial temperature, t₂ = Final temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 2 kg, t₁ = 25°C, t₂ = 40°C

Constant: c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute these value into equation 1

Q = 2×4200(40-25)

Q = 2×4200×15

Q = 126000 J

Electrons and protons travel from the Sun to the Earth at a typical velocity of 3.83 ✕ 105 m/s in the positive x-direction. Thou
Leona [35]

Answer:

F=2.84*10^{-26}N  & -y direction

F=2.84*10^{-26}N & +y direction

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of electron V_e=3.83 * 10^5 m/s +x direction

Earths magnetic field B_e=3.04 * 10^-^8 +z direction

a)

Generally the equation for magnetic force F_m is mathematically given by

F=q(V_e*B_e)

where

q=1.6*10^{-19}c\\\=i*\=z=-\=j

F=1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)

F=1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)

F=-2.84*10^{-26}N \=j

Magnitude & Direction

F=2.84*10^{-26}N  -y direction

b)

Generally the equation for magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on an electron. is mathematically given by

\=F'=-1.6*10^{-19}(3.83 * 10^5 m/s*3.04 * 10^-^8)

\=F'=-2.84*10^{-26}N \=j

Magnitude & Direction

F=2.84*10^{-26}N & +y direction
