Answer:

Radioactive processes within the Earth.

Explanation:

many of Earth’s heat is constantly generated by the decay of radioactive isotopes, such as potassium-40 and thorium-232.

A person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force. The force with which the earth is attract
suter [353]

Answer:

800 N

Explanation:

By Newton's third law which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So, as the earth attracts the person towards its center, the person attracts the earth towards itself with the same magnitude of force but in the opposite direction.

Since the person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force, the  the earth is attracted toward the person with an 800 N reaction force.

What is the molar mass of an ideal gas if a 0.800 g sample of this gas occupies a volume of 200. mL at 50.0 oC and 720. mm Hg?
Paladinen [302]
PV=nRT
(720/760)(0.200)=(0.800/x)(0.08206)(323.15)
(0.1894736842)=(0.800/x)(0.08206)(323.15)
.0071451809=(0.800/x)
x=MM=111.9635758 g/mol

a 3.18-kg rock is released from rest at a height of 26.6 m. ignore air resistance and determine (a) the kinetic energy at 26.6 m
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

(a) 0 J

(b) 828.96 J

(c) 828.96 J

(d) 828.96 J

(e) 0 J

(f) 828.96 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the rock is, m=3.18\ kg

Initial height of the rock is, h_{i}=26.6\ m

Final height of the rock is, h_f=0\ m

Initial velocity of the rock is, v_i=0\ m/s(Rest)

Acceleration due to gravity is, g=9.8\ m/s^2

(a)

Initial kinetic energy is given as:

K_i=\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

Plug in the given values and solve for 'K_i'. This gives,

K_i=\frac{1}{2}\times 3.18\times 0^2=0

Therefore, initial kinetic energy is 0 J.

(b)

Initial potential energy is given as:

U_i=mgh_i\\U_i=3.18\times 9.8\times 26.6=828.96\ J

Therefore, initial potential energy is 828.96 J.

(c)

Mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic and potential energy. It is always a constant value. Therefore,

ME=K_i+P_i\\ME=0+828.96=828.96\ J

Therefore, mechanical energy at 26.6 m is 828.96 J.

(d)

Now, at the final height of 0 m, the decrease in potential energy will be equal to the increase in the kinetic energy. In other words, the potential energy at the start will be converted to kinetic energy at the bottom.

Therefore, kinetic energy at the 0 m is given as:

K_f=U_i=828.96\ J

(e)

Potential energy at the final height is given as:

P_f=mgh_f=3.18\times 9.8\times 0=0\ J

Therefore, final potential energy is 0 J.

(f)

Total mechanical energy is a constant and doesn't depend on the height.

So, total mechanical energy at 0 m is same as that at 26.6 m.

Total mechanical energy is 828.96 J.

In 1996, NASA performed an experiment called the Tethered Satellite experiment. In this experiment a 3.42 x 104-m length of wire
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

15116.4 V

Explanation:

B = Earth's magnetic field at the location = 6.5\times 10^{-5}\ T

L = Length of the wire = 3.42\times 10^4\ m

v = Velocity of the shuttle = 6.8\times 10^8\ m/s

The emf generated is given by

E=BLv\\\Rightarrow E=6.5\times 10^{-5}\times 3.42\times 10^{4}\times 6.8\times 10^3\\\Rightarrow E=15116.4\ V

The motional emf generated between the ends of the wire is 15116.4 V
