A circular window of 30 cm diameter in a submarine can withstand a maximum force of 5.20 × 105 N. The maximum depth in a lake to

Svetach [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

F = $5.20 \times 10^{5}$ N

g = 9.8 m/s

radius = $\frac{diameter}{2}$

= $\frac{30 cm}{2}$ = 15 cm = 0.15 m (as 1 m = 100 cm)

Formula to calculate depth is as follows.

F = $\rho \times g \times h \times A$

or, h = $\frac{F}{\rho \times g \times A}$

h = $\frac{5.2 \times 10^{5}}{1000 \times 9.8 \times (3.1416 \times (0.15 m^{2})}$

= 751 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum depth in a lake to which the submarine can go without damaging the window is closest 750 m.

A satellite orbits Earth. The only force on the satellite is the gravitational force exerted by Earth. How does the satellite’s

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

here we can say that acceleration of the satellite is same as the gravitational field due to Earth at that location

Explanation:

As we know that gravitational field is defined as the force experienced by the satellite per unit of mass

so we will have

$E = \frac{F}{m}$

now in order to find the acceleration of the satellite we know by Newton's II law

$F = ma$

so we will have

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

so here we can say that acceleration of the satellite is same as the gravitational field due to Earth at that location

supose you have two wires of equal length made from same material. how is it possible for the wires to have different resistance

Ivenika [448]

I'm not sure but I had this question on a benchmark I think its the density of the wire you need to find the density or the mass I'm not sure but i do remember this question

Describe two reasons why an alpha particle is less penetrating than a beta or gamma particle.

uysha [10]

Alpha particles travel through the air they collide with oxygen and nitrogen molecules. While they collide with these molecules, they lose some energy until all energy are used up and they are absorbed. These particles can be absorbed by a sheet of paper or by the air. On the other hand, beta particles and gamma particles move faster than the alpha particles and are poor at ionizing atoms or molecules thus it takes more of the material to be able to absorb these particles.

Graphite crystals can be used as a lubricant.<br> TRUE<br> FALSE

timurjin [86]

I think its true because they are a soft solid that can be broken down into a liquid... Hope this helps in any way :3
