Answer:

It is true that Smaller the surface area greater the gravitational force and vice versa

Explanation:

The gravitational force depends on the distance between the two objects

F=GMm/r2

where G = gravitational constant

M = mass of one object

m = mass of second object

r is the distance between the two objects

Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between two objects. Hence, it can be said the Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the area and hence as the area increases gravitational force will decrease or vice versa

A Red-Tailed Hawk leaves its nest and flies 100.0 meters across the sky in 20 seconds, when it spots a garter snake on the groun

igomit [66]

Speed = distance / time.

Speed of him leaving the nest:
S = 100 / 20sec

5 m/s.

Catching the snake:
S2 = 50 / 5sec

10 m/s.

Average of 5& 10 = 7.5

7.5 m/s has to be the answer.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 22 and its mass number is 96?

Dovator [93]

1. The mass number is protons + neutrons = mass number. In this case, we have protons + neutron = 164.The atomic number is simply the number of protons so we have 43 + neutrons = 164. Subtracting 43 from both sides we get neutrons = 121.
2. = 4

3. The number of protons in the nucleus does not equal the number of neutrons.

A=mass number:
Z=atomic number (= number of protons)
N=number of neutrons:

A=Z+N

If the number of protons in the nucleus is equal the number of neutrons , we would have an even mass number; because Z=N=x; then A=x+x=2x (this is always an even number) but 23 is an odd number, therefore the number of protons in the nucleus does not equal the number of neutrons.

A 22.0 ohm and 75.0 ohm resistor are in parallel, connected to a 5.00 v battery. how much current flows out of the battery

Julli [10]

Answer:

294 mAmps

Explanation:

The two resistors are equal to 22 * 75 / ( 22+ 75) = 17.01 ohm

V = IR

V/R = I

5 / 17.01 = .294 A

A 14.0 gauge copper wire of diameter 1.628 mmcarries a current of 14.0 mA. Part A: What is the potential difference across a 2.1

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

for copper potential difference is 2.4871 × $10^{-4}$ V

for silver potential difference is 2.1256 × $10^{-4}$ V

Explanation:

given data

diameter D = 1.628 mm = 0.001628 m

current = 14.0 mA = 0.0140 A

length L = 2.15 m

to find out

potential difference

solution

we consider here

resistivity of silver = 1.47 × $10^{-8}$ ohm-m

resistivity of copper = 1.72 × $10^{-8}$ ohm-m

so we apply here resistance formula that is

Resistance = ρ × L / A ...............1

so here area A = πr² = π(0.001628 /2)² = 2.0816 × $10^{-6}$ m²

for copper Resistance = ρ × L / A

Resistance = 1.72 × $10^{-8}$ × 2.15 / 2.0816 × $10^{-6}$

Resistance = 1.7765 × $10^{-2}$ ohm

for silver Resistance = ρ × L / A

Resistance = 1.47 × $10^{-8}$ × 2.15 / 2.0816 × $10^{-6}$

Resistance = 1.5183 × $10^{-2}$ ohm

potential difference is calculated as

for copper potential difference = current × resistance

potential difference = 0.0140 ×1.7765 × $10^{-2}$

potential difference = 2.4871 × $10^{-4}$ V

for silver potential difference = current × resistance

potential difference = 0.0140 × 1.5183 × $10^{-2}$

potential difference = 2.1256 × $10^{-4}$ V
