Answer:

Explanation:

a gravitational field is the region of space surrounding a body in which another body experiences a force of gravitational attraction.

The formula is: weight/mass = gravitational field strength. On Earth the gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg.

an example of how you can use it if you need to find the gravitational force from earth.

The quartz crystal used in an electric watch vibrates with a frequency of 32,768 Hz. What is the period of the crystal's motion?
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Time period, T=3.05\times 10^{-5}\ s

Explanation:

Given that,

The quartz crystal used in an electric watch vibrates with a frequency of 32,768 Hz, f = 32768 Hz

We need to find the period of the crystal's motion. The relationship between the frequency and the time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

T is the time period of the crystal's motion.

Time period is given by :

T=\dfrac{1}{32768}

T=3.05\times 10^{-5}\ s

So, the time period of the crystal's motion is 3.05\times 10^{-5}\ s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball is thrown straight downward with a speed of 0.50 meter per second from a height of 4.0 meters. What is the speed of the b
Bond [772]
Assuming that reaching a height 0 doesn’t stop the ball, and that it accelerates at 9.8 m/s^2, the ball would be traveling at 0.5 + 0.7*9.8 = 7.36 m/s downwards.

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10, 000 N/m and norminal.Length of 0.50.What is the togal len
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Total length of spring 0.647 m

Explanation:

We have given mass of the person m = 150 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Spring constant k = 10000 N/m

Nominal length of spring = 0.50

According to hook's law

mg=kx

150\times 9.8=10000\times x

x = 0.147 m

So total length of spring = 0.50+0.147 = 0.647 m

A copper wire of resistivity 2.6 × 10-8 Ω m, has a cross sectional area of 35 × 10-4 cm2
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

the length of the wire is 134.62 m.

Explanation:

Given;

resistivity of the copper wire, ρ = 2.6 x 10⁻⁸ Ωm

cross-sectional area of the wire, A  = 35 x 10⁻⁴ cm² = ( 35 x 10⁻⁴) x 10⁻⁴ m²

resistance of the wire, R = 10Ω

The length of the wire is calculated as follows;

R = \frac{\rho L}{A} \\\\L = \frac{RA}{\rho} \\\\L= \frac{10 \times (35\times 10^{-4}) \times 10^{-4}}{2.6 \times 10^{-8}} \\\\L = 134.62 \ m

Therefore, the length of the wire is 134.62 m.
