Explanation:

Newton’s law of gravitation, statement that any particle of matter in the universe attracts any other with a force varying directly as the product of the masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them.

Hope this helps!

man stands on a platform that is rotating (without friction) with an angular speed of 1.2 rev/s; his arms are outstretched and h

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

w₂ = 22.6 rad/s

Explanation:

This exercise the system is formed by platform, man and bricks; For this system, when the bricks are released, the forces are internal, so the kinetic moment is conserved.

Let's write the moment two moments

initial instant. Before releasing bricks

L₀ = I₁ w₁

final moment. After releasing the bricks

$L_{f}$ = I₂W₂

L₀ = L_{f}

I₁ w₁ = I₂ w₂

w₂ = I₁ / I₂ w₁

let's reduce the data to the SI system

w₁ = 1.2 rev / s (2π rad / 1rev) = 7.54 rad / s

let's calculate

w₂ = 6.0/2.0 7.54

w₂ = 22.6 rad/s

The object is called a meteor because it is producing Streak of light and has not yet struck earth.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

A meteoroid is a celestial object which is very smaller than an asteroid. These objects are produced as a collision impact from mars or moon and float freely in space without any specific orbit. When they come inside the Earth's gravitational field, they are attracted by the Earth's gravity to Earth's crust. These objects in Earth's atmosphere are called meteors. As they travel through Earth's atmosphere, they do face a huge friction from Earth's atmosphere which let them burn and that is visible as the tail of the meteor.

Most of them are so small that they are burnt away in the atmosphere. But some are bigger and they reach the Earth's surface and are called as meteorites.

A system releases 255 cal of heat to the surroundings while delivering 428 cal of work. what is the change in internal energy of

vichka [17]

Answer:-683 cal

Explanation:

Given

Heat released by system Q=-255 cal

as heat released is taken as negative and vice-versa

Work done by system W=428 cal

From First law of thermodynamics

$Q=\Delta +W , where \Delta U$ =change in internal Energy

$\Delta U=-255-428=-683$

Two uncharged metal spheres, spaced 25.0 cm apart, have a capacitance of 26.0 pF. How much work would it take to move 12.0 nC of

viktelen [127]

Answer:

$W=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J$

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between two spheres, r = 25 cm = 0.25 m

The capacitance, C = 26 pF = 26×10⁻¹² F

Charge, Q = 12 nC = 12 × 10⁻⁹ C

We need to find the work done in moving the charge. We know that, work done is given by :

$U=\dfrac{Q^2}{2C}$

Put all the values,

$U=\dfrac{(12\times 10^{-9})^2}{2\times 26\times 10^{-12}}\\\\U=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J$

So, the work done is $2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J$ .

A railroad car moves under a grain elevator at a constant speed of 3.20 m/s. Grain drops into the car at the rate of 240 kg/min.

dedylja [7]

Answer:

F = 768 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the elevator, v = 3.2 m/s

Grain drops into the car at the rate of 240 kg/min, $\dfrac{dm}{dt}=240\ kg/min = 4\ kg/s$

We need to find the magnitude of force needed to keep the car moving constant speed. The relation between the momentum and the force is given by :

$F=\dfrac{dp}{dt}$
