Physics

Answer:

it depends on a person's own weight

ExtremeBDS [4]2 years ago

Answer:

The gravity is roughly the same. The inverse square law applies to gravity and that means that being 60 miles above Earth is about the same as being on Earth. The thing is, they are going really fast in an orbit and thus falling around the Earth. The weightlessness comes from a sort of cancellation of gravity pulling them down and their going perpendicular to that force. The forces are cancelling and making them relatively “weightless”. It’s not really weightlessness but just an equilibrium reached between the two accelerations of gravity and their motion against the pull of the Earth.

Does Ap Physics have anything to do with probablity?
padilas [110]
So I'm a junior. I am currently taking AP Calc BC and AP Physics B.

As of now, I'm not sure if I should take AP Probability and Statistics or Differential Equations/Calc III next year. Also, I'm debating between taking AP Physics C or AP Chemistry.

Which ones do you think would look better on a transcript? I heard that Diffeq/CalcIII is harder than AP ProbStat, but ProbStat is an AP course which will be weighted heavier. Also, should I take Physics C since i've taken Physics B this year already?

Assume a solar cell would produce a current of 500mA and 3 V. What is the power of this solar cell?
defon

Answer:

the power of the solar cell is 1.5 watts

Explanation:

Recall that power is defined as the product of the voltage (V) times the running current (I): Power = V * I.

The only thing we have to take care of before actually performing the operation, is to convert milliamps into Amps, so our answer comes directly in the appropriate units (Watts). 500 mAmps can be written as 0.5 Amps, then, the product becomes:

Power = V * I = 3 V * 0.5 Amps = 1.5 watts

When the distance between two stars decreases by one-third, the force between them
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

the force will increase by a factor 2.25

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the two stars is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two stars

r is the distance between the stars

If the distance is decreased by one-third, it means that the new distance is 2/3 of the previous distance

r'=\frac{2}{3}r

So the new force will be

F'=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{(\frac{2}{3}r)^2}=\frac{9}{4} G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}=2.25 F

So, the force will be 2.25 times the previous value.

2. Categorize each statement as true or false. A cylindrical capacitor is essentially a parallel-plate capacitor rolled into a t
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

False --> A cylindrical capacitor is essentially a parallel plate capacitor rolled into a tube. This is because a cylindrical capacitor comprises two cylinders.

False --> The dielectric constant indicates the distance by which the two plates of a capacitor are separated.

True --> The charge on a capacitor increases quickly at first, then much more slowly as the capacitor charges. This is because the charge on the capacitor increases exponentially.

False --> The voltage across a capacitor in an RC circuit increases linearly during charging. This is because the voltage increases exponentially.

True --> One of the principal purposes of a capacitor is to store electric potential energy.

True --> A capacitor charges rapidly when connected to an RC circuit with a battery. This is because a cylindrical capacitor is basically a parallel plate capacitor rolled into a tube.
