OF COURSE !  

The gravitational force between two objects doesn't ONLY depend on the product of their masses.  It also depends on the distance between them.

I'm not even going to work out the numbers for my example.  I'm just going to state without proof that at the top of the 2nd frame, the gravitational force between you and your bowling ball is greater than the gravitational force between you and the whole darn Andromeda galaxy !  My reasoning is based on the fact that your bowling ball is maybe 1 foot from your center of mass, whereas the Andromeda galaxy is more like 2.5 million light years from it.  That right there is going to give your bowling ball a big advantage when it comes to gravity !

Discuss the phase change condition due to reflection of light from a surface. Summarize equations of interference for thin film.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

if this surface has a higher index than in the medium where the light travels, the reflected wave has a phase change of 180º

Explanation:

When a ray of light falls on a surface if this surface has a higher index than in the medium where the light travels, the reflected wave has a phase change of 180º this can be explained by Newton's third law, the light when arriving pushes the atoms of the medium that is more dense, and these atoms respond with a force of equal magnitude, but in the opposite direction.

When the fractional index is lower than that of the medium where the reflacted beam travels, notice a change in phase.

Also, when light penetrates the medium, it modifies its wavelength

              λ = λ₀ / n

We take these two aspects into account, the condition for contributory interference is

            d sin θ = (m + 1/2) λ

for destructive interference we have

            d sin θ = m λ

in general this phenomenon is observed at 90º

           2 d = (m +1/2) λ° / n

          2nd = (m + ½) λ₀

1. You wish to heat 20 kg of water from 40°C to 80°C. How many kcal of heat are necessary to do this? To how many kJ does this c
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

<h2>3,343.68kJ </h2>

Explanation:

Heat energy used up can be calculated using the formula:

H = mcΔt

m = mass oof the object (in kg) = 20kg

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4179.6J/kg°C

Δt change in temperature = 80-40 = 40°C

H= 20* 4179.6 * 40

H = 3,343,680Joules

H = 3,343.68kJ

Show how the alternative definition of power, found in your book, can be derived by substituting the definitions of work and spe
Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V

Which of the following are basic principles that apply to circuits? Choose the 2 correct answers from the choices below.
marta [7]

The basic principles that apply to circuits is that electrons must receive energy from a source, and electrons transfer energy to perform some useful function.

<h3 /><h3>What is circuit?</h3>

Individual electronic components, like resistors, transistors, are connected by metallic wires or traces by which the electric current can flow to form a circuit design.

The basic principles that apply to circuits will be;

1. Electrons must receive energy from a source.

2. Electrons transfer energy to perform some useful function.

Hence, option 1 and 2 are correct.
