Two objects attract each other gravitationally with a force of 2.5 x 10^-10N when they are 0.25 m apart. Their total mass is 4.0
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

M = 3.9406 kg and m = 0.0594 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Mathematically it is expressed as follows:

Fg = (G×M×m)/r²    Formula (1)

Where:

Fg is the gravitational force (N)

G is the universal gravitation constant, G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ (N×m²)/kg²

M and m are the masses of the bodies that interact  (kg).

r is the distance that separates them (m).

Known Data

Fg = 2.5 × 10⁻¹⁰ N

r = 0.25 m

G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ (N×m²)/kg²

Problem development

We propose 2 equations

M + m = 4kg

M = 4 - m equation (1)

We replace in formula (1)

2.5 × 10⁻¹⁰ = (6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ × M × m)/(0.25)²

2.5 × 10⁻¹⁰ × (0.25)² = (6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ × M × m)

(2.5 × 10⁻¹⁰ × (0.25)²)/(6.67 × 10⁻¹¹) = M × m

M × m = 0.234 equation (2)

We replace M = 4 - m in equation (2)

(4 - m) × m = 0.234

4m - m² = 0.234

m² - 4m + 0.234 = 0 (quadratic equation)

We apply the formula for the quadratic equation and obtain 2 values for m that meet the conditions:

m = 3.9406 kg or m =  0.0594 kg

We replace m in equation (1)

M = 4 - 3.9406 = 0.0594 kg or M = 4 - 0.0594 = 3.9406

To meet the condition that M + m must give 4 kg, one mass must be equal 3.9406 and the other must equal 0.0594, then:

M = 3.9406 kg and m = 0.0594 kg

#26 question
4vir4ik [10]

So, the time that taken for the astronaut to fall to the surface of the moon is <u>2.5 s.</u>

<h3>Introduction</h3>

Hi ! In this question, I will help you. In this question, you will learn about the fall time of the free fall motion. Free fall is a downward vertical motion without being preceded by an initial velocity. When moving in free fall, the time required can be calculated by the following equation:

\sf{h = \frac{1}{2} \cdot g \cdot t^2}

\sf{\frac{2 \cdot h}{g} = t^2}

\boxed{\sf{\bold{t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot h}{g}}}}}

With the following condition :

  • t = interval of the time (s)
  • h = height or any other displacement at vertical line (m)
  • g = acceleration of the gravity (m/s²)

<h3>Problem Solving</h3>

We know that :

  • h = height = 5.00 m
  • g = acceleration of the gravity = 1.6 m/s²

What was asked :

  • t = interval of the time = ... s

Step by step :

\sf{t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot h}{g}}}

\sf{t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot 5}{1.6}}}

\sf{t = \sqrt{6.25}}

\boxed{\sf{t = 2.5 \: s}}

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

So, the time that taken for the astronaut to fall to the surface of the moon is 2.5 s.

An electron, tial well may be anywhere within the interval 2a. So the uncertainty in its position is Δx= 2a. There must be a co
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

      K =  \frac{h'}{8 m  \ \Delta x^2}K

Explanation:

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle is

          Δx Δp ≥ h' / 2

          h’ =\frac{h}{2\pi }

The kinetic energy of a particle is

          K = ½ m v²

           p = mv

           v = \frac{p}{m}

substitute

           K = \frac{1}{2}  \frac{p^2}{m}

from the uncertainty principle,

           Δp = \frac{h'}{2 \ \Delta x}

we substitute

          K = \frac{1}{2m} ( \frac{h'}{2 \ \Delta x})^2

          K =  \frac{h'}{8 m  \ \Delta x^2}

A paintball is shot horizontally in the positive x direction at time t after the ball is shot it is 4 cm to the right and 4 cm b
Artist 52 [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

At time 2t the paint ball is at 8 cm to the right and 16 cm to the bottom

<u>Explanation:</u>

 We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

Considering the horizontal motion of paint ball

    Distance traveled during time t = 4 cm

    Initial velocity = u m/s

   Acceleration = 0 m/s^2

So 4 = u*t+\frac{1}{2} *0*t^2\\ \\ u = \frac{4}{t}

Now at time 2t,

  S= u*2t+\frac{1}{2} *0*(2t)^2\\ \\=\frac{4}{t} *2t\\ \\ =8cm

  So horizontal distance traveled in time 2t = 8 cm to the right

Now considering the vertical motion of paint ball

  Distance traveled during time t = 4 cm

    Initial velocity = 0 m/s

   Acceleration = -g m/s^2

4=0*t-\frac{1}{2} *g*t^2\\ \\ t^2=\frac{-8}{g}

At time 2t,

     S=0*2t-\frac{1}{2} *g*(2t)^2\\ \\ =-\frac{1}{2} *g*4*\frac{-8}{g}\\ \\ =16 cm

 So vertical distance traveled in time 2t = 16 cm to the bottom
