Smaller the surface area greater the gravitational force and vice–versa yes or no? justify the statement.

1 answer:

Sholpan [36]2 years ago

6 0

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 weather balloon is partially inflated with helium gas to a volume of 2.0 m³. The pressure was measured at 101 kPa and the temp

Yanka [14]

Answer:

4.7 m³

Explanation:

We'll use the gas law P1 • V1 / T1 = P2 • V2 / T2

* Givens :

P1 = 101 kPa , V1 = 2 m³ , T1 = 300.15 K , P2 = 40 kPa , T2 = 283.15 K

( We must always convert the temperature unit to Kelvin "K")

* What we want to find :

V2 = ?

* Solution :

101 × 2 / 300.15 = 40 × V2 / 283.15

V2 × 40 / 283.15 ≈ 0.67

V2 = 0.67 × 283.15 / 40

V2 ≈ 4.7 m³

A helicopter starting on the ground is rising directly into the air at a rate of 25 ft/s. You are running on the ground starting

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The rate of change of the distance between the helicopter and yourself (in ft/s) after 5 s is $\sqrt{725}$ ft/ sec

Explanation:

Given:

h(t) = 25 ft/sec

x(t) = 10 ft/ sec

h(5) = 25 ft/sec . 5 = 125 ft

x(5) = 10 ft/sec . 5 = 50 ft

Now we can calculate the distance between the person and the helicopter by using the Pythagorean theorem

$D(t) = \sqrt{h^2 + x^2}$

Lets find the derivative of distance with respect to time

$\frac{dD}{dt} (t) = \frac{2h \cdot \frac{dh}{dt} +2x \cdot\frac{dx}{dt}} {2\sqrt{h^2 + x^2}}$

Substituting the values of h(t) and x(t) and simplifying we get,

$\frac{dD}{dt}(t) = \frac{50t \cdot \frac{dh}{dt} + 20 \cdot \frac{dx}dt}{2\sqrt{625\cdot t^2 + 100 \cdot t^2}}$

$\frac{dh}{dt} = 25ft/sec$

$\frac{dx}{dt} = 10 ft/sec$

$\frac{Dd}{dt} (t) = \frac{1250t +200t}{2\sqrt{725}t}$ = $\frac{725}{\sqrt{725}}$ = $\sqrt{725}$ ft / sec

A paleontologist estimates that when a particular rock formed, it contained 12 mg of the radioactive isotope potassium-40, which

leva [86]

Answer:

$t = 2.52 billion \:years$

Explanation:

As we know by radioactivity law

$N = N_o e^{-\lambda t}$

so here we will have

$N = 3 mg$

$N_o = 12 mg$

now we will have

$3 = 12 e^{-\lambda t}$

$\lambda t = ln 4$

now we also know that

$\lambda = \frac{ln2}{1.26 \times 10^6 yrs}$

$t = 1.26\times 10^6\times \frac{ln4}{ln2}$

$t = 2.52 billion \:years$

If the mass of an object stays the same and you apply more force what will happen to the objects motion

vovikov84 [41]

it will move the object if you apply force, because of that it will stay the same with newton's law.
