The electrical force between two protons is given by:
F_e = k  \frac{e^2}{r^2}
where
k=8.99 \cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant
e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C is the proton charge
r is the separation between the two protons

The gravitational force between the two protons is given by:
F_g=G \frac{m^2}{r^2}
where
G=6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2} is the gravitational constant
m=1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg is the proton mass
r is the separation between the two protons

If we divide the electric force by the gravitational force, we get
\frac{F_e}{F_g}= \frac{k}{G} \frac{e^2}{m^2}=1.2 \cdot 10^{36}

which means that the electric force between the two protons is 1.2 \cdot 10^{36} times greater than the gravitational force.

Moreover, the two protons have same electric charge, and the electrostatic force between two same-sign charges is repulsive, while the gravitational force is always attractive: therefore, the correct answer is
<span>The electrical force is 1.2 × 1036 times greater than the gravitational force, but only the gravitational force is attractive.</span>

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 1.25-kg mass is hung from the spring. After all vibrations have died away, the spring
ch4aika [34]

The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through its equilibrium position is about 1.20 J

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Let's recall Elastic Potential Energy formula as follows:

\boxed{E_p = \frac{1}{2}k x^2}

where:

<em>Ep = elastic potential energy ( J )</em>

<em>k = spring constant ( N/m )</em>

<em>x = spring extension ( compression ) ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

mass of object = m = 1.25 kg

initial extension = x = 0.0275 m

final extension = x' = 0.0735 - 0.0275 = 0.0460 m

<u>Asked:</u>

kinetic energy = Ek = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>Firstly , we will calculate the spring constant by using </em><em>Hooke's Law</em><em> as follows:</em>

F = k x

mg = k x

k = mg \div x

k = 1.25(9.8) \div 0.0275

k = 445 \frac{5}{11} \texttt{ N/m}

\texttt{ }

<em>Next , we will use </em><em>Conservation of Energy</em><em> formula to solve this problem:</em>

Ep_1 + Ek_1 = Ep_2 + Ek_2

\frac{1}{2}k (x')^2 + mgh + 0 = \frac{1}{2}k x^2 + Ek

Ek = \frac{1}{2}k (x')^2 + mgh - \frac{1}{2}k x^2

Ek = \frac{1}{2}k ( (x')^2 - x^2 ) + mgh

Ek = \frac{1}{2}(445 \frac{5}{11}) ( 0.0460^2 - 0.0275^2 ) + 1.25(9.8)(0.0735)

\boxed {Ek \approx 1.20 \texttt{ J}}

Suppose Earth's gravitational force were decreased by half. How would this change affect a game of basketball? Write a paragraph
timama [110]
If the gravitational force were<span> decreased by half, there would be lack of gravity on earth. Hence, it would basically affect the velocity, speed, and the distance travelled in any direction by basketball players and the ball. The basketball would bounce higher and come down in a slower speed. Whereas for the players, they would be able to leap higher from the floor.</span><span> </span>

A gyroscope slows from an initial rate of 32.0 rad/s at a rate of 0.700 rad/s2. How long does it take to come to rest? How many
Darya [45]

Answer:

t=45.7s

\alpha =116revolutions

Explanation:

Since we have given values of ω₀=32.o rad/s ,ω=0 and α=-0.700 rad/s² to find t we use below equation

w=w_{o}+at\\  0=(32.0rad/s)+(-0.700rad/s^{2} )t\\t=\frac{-32.0}{-0.700} \\t=45.7s

To find revolutions we use below equation

w^{2}=w_{o}^{2}+2a\alpha

Substitute the given values to find revolutions α

So

0=(32.0rad/s)^{2}+2(-0.700rad/s^{2} )\alpha  \\\alpha =\frac{(-32.0rad/s)^{2}}{2(-0.700rad/s^{2} )} \\\alpha =731rad

To convert rad to rev:

\alpha =(731rad)*(\frac{1rev}{2\pi rad} )\\\alpha =116revolutions
