Answer:

F = 2.69 10⁻³ m   [ N]

Explanation:

This exercise asks to calculate the gravitational field of the Earth on the lunar surface, let's use the universal gravitation law

          F = G m M / r²

where m is the mass of the body, M the mass of the Earth and r the distance between the Earth and the Moon

         F = (G M / r²) m

         F = (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / (3.85 10⁸)² ) m

         F = 2.69 10⁻³ m   [ N]

This force is directed from the Moon towards the Earth, therefore it reduces the weight of the body

Which is the wavelength of a wave that travels at a speed of 3.0 × 10^8 m/s and has a frequency of 1.5 × 10^16 Hz?
k0ka [10]

Answer:

2 x 10^-8

Explanation:

the formula of wavelength is

the speed divided by frequency

so you have the speed given = 3.0x10^8m/s

and frequency = 1.5×10^16 Hz

so wavelength = 3.0x10^8m/s / 1.5x10^16 Hz

If two parallel conductors are both free to move and are carrying current in the same direction, what would happen if the curren
pishuonlain [190]

The wires would remain attracted to each other.

Option D.

Explanation:

It is known that magnetic flux will be generated in conductors with varying emf. So when current is flowing in two parallel conductors, the magnetic flux will be generated in those wires. If the current is flowing in same direction in both the wires, then the magnetic flux will be generated towards inside and outside the wires. Thus, the wire will get attracted to each other till the time the current is flowing in the same direction in both the wires. So if the current flow in each wire was reversed at the same time, then the wire would remain attracted to each other.

A mechanical wave starts when matter is disturbed by a source of ______.
Gwar [14]

Answer:

MATERIAL MEDIUM

Explanation:

Wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium and transfer energy from one point to another without causing any permanent displacement of the medium itself. The two forms of wave are the mechanical wave and the electromagnetic waves.

Mechanical wave is a wave with requires MATERIAL MEDIUM for its propagation. This means that before wave can be propagated at times, material medium is needed e.g a ripple tank. A ripple tank is a mechanical device that generates waves using an instrument called stroboscope attached to it. This kind of wave requires an external source before it can propagate compared to electromagnetic waves that does not require material medium for its propagation.
