Answer:

a. lowering the center of gravity.

Explanation:

A stable body is the one that experiences a net force in the direction opposite the direction of displacement. A body that is stable has a restoring force that restores it to the original equilibrium position. Many factors helps to increase stability, and one of them is lowering the center of gravity closer to the ground. This is why race cars are closer to the ground, to give them more stability especially at high speed.

A mass of 10 g of oxygen fill a weighted pistonâ€“cylinder device at 20 kPa and 110Â°C. The device is now cooled until the tempe

mezya [45]

Answer:

The change of the volume of the device during this cooling is $14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of oxygen = 10 g

Pressure = 20 kPa

Initial temperature = 110°C

Final temperature = 0°C

We need to calculate the change of the volume of the device during this cooling

Using formula of change volume

$\Delta V=V_{2}-V_{1}$

$\Delta V=\dfrac{mR}{P}(T_{2}-T_{1})$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta V=\dfrac{0.3125\times0.0821}{2.0265\times10^{9}}(383-273)$

$\Delta V=14.297\ L$

$\Delta V=14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

Hence, The change of the volume of the device during this cooling is $14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3$

Cart 1 has an initial velocity and hits cart 2 which is stationary. after a perfectly inelastic collision, the combined carts ar

Tomtit [17]

Option(a) the mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1 is the right answer.

The mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1 is correct about the mass of cart 2.

Let's demonstrate the issue using variables:

Let,

m1=mass of cart 1

m2=mass of cart 2

v1 = velocity of cart 1 before collision

v2 = velocity of cart 2 before collision

v' = velocity of the carts after collision

Using the conservation of momentum for perfectly inelastic collisions:

m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)v'

v2 = 0 because it is stationary

v' = 1/3*v1

m1v1 = (m1+m2)(1/3)(v1)

m1 = 1/3*m1 + 1/3*m2

1/3*m2 = m1 - 1/3*m1

1/3*m2 = 2/3*m1

m2 = 2m1

From this we can conclude that the mass of cart 2 is twice that of the mass of cart 1.

Atomic physicists usually ignore the effect of gravity within an atom. To see why, we may calculate and compare the magnitude of

STatiana [176]

Answer:

$2.27\cdot 10^{49}$

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the proton and the electron is given by

$F_G=G\frac{m_p m_e}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

$m_p$ is the proton mass

$m_e$ is the electron mass

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

$F_G=(6.67259\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg s^{-2})\frac{(1.67262\cdot 10^{-27}kg) (9.10939\cdot 10^{-31}kg)}{(3 m)^2}=1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N$

The electrical force between the proton and the electron is given by

$F_E=k\frac{q_p q_e}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb constant

$q_p = q_e = q$ is the elementary charge (charge of the proton and of the electron)

r = 3 m is the distance between the proton and the electron

Substituting numbers into the equation,

$F_E=(8.98755\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2})\frac{(1.602\cdot 10^{-19}C)^2}{(3 m)^2}=2.56\cdot 10^{-19}N$

So, the ratio of the electrical force to the gravitational force is

$\frac{F_E}{F_G}=\frac{2.56\cdot 10^{-19} N}{1.13\cdot 10^{-68}N}=2.27\cdot 10^{49}$

So, we see that the electrical force is much larger than the gravitational force.
