Using Ampere's Law, the magnetic field produced inside this solenoid is given by
B = uo N I / h
where uo is the vacuum permeability, N is the number of turns in the solenoid and h is the length of the solenoid. Earth's magnetic field is around 50 microteslas in North America thus the current needed in the solenoid is
I = B h / (uo N) = (50 E-6 ) (4) / ((4 pi E-7)(6000) ) = 0.026 A
I = 26 mA
So you need a current of around 26 mA.
Answer:
r1 = 5*10^10 m , r2 = 6*10^12 m
v1 = 9*10^4 m/s
From conservation of energy
K1 +U1 = K2 +U2
0.5mv1^2 - GMm/r1 = 0.5mv2^2 - GMm/r2
0.5v1^2 - GM/r1 = 0.5v2^2 - GM/r2
M is mass of sun = 1.98*10^30 kg
G = 6.67*10^-11 N.m^2/kg^2
0.5*(9*10^4)^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(5*10^10)) = 0.5v2^2 - (6.67*10^-11*1.98*10^30/(6*10^12))
v2 = 5.35*10^4 m/s
Answer:
Two times as much
Explanation:
The equation for gravitational force is: Fg = GMm/r^2 with G being the universal gravitational constant.
So to make things easier we'll set r equal to 1 since it's a constant as well as G.
Then we're left with Fg=Mm with M being the mass of the sun and m being the mass of the earth.
So if m is constant and supposedly equals 1 then Fg=M so Fg is proportional to M therefore if M doubles then Fg doubles.
