Answer:

6.003×10¯⁶ N

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 1 cm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

1 cm = 1 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

1 cm = 0.01 m

Finally, we shall determine the gravitational attraction. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass 1 (M₁) = 3 Kg

Mass 2 (M₂) = 3 Kg

Distance apart (r) = 0.01 m

Gravitational constant (G) = 6.67×10¯¹¹ Nm²/Kg²

Force of attraction (F) =?

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 3 × / 0.01²

F = 6.003×10¯¹⁰ / 1×10¯⁴

F = 6.003×10¯⁶ N

Thus the gravitational attraction is 6.003×10¯⁶ N

Many industries are powered via distant power stations. Calculate the current flowing through a 7,300m long 10. copper power lin

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Current, I = 1000 A

Explanation:

It is given that,

Length of the copper wire, l = 7300 m

Resistance of copper line, R = 10 ohms

Magnetic field, B = 0.1 T

$\mu_o=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ T-m/A$

Resistivity, $\rho=1.72\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

We need to find the current flowing the copper wire. Firstly, we need to find the radius of he power line using physical dimensions as :

$R=\rho \dfrac{l}{A}$

$R=\rho \dfrac{l}{\pi r^2}$

$r=\sqrt{\dfrac{\rho l}{R\pi}}$

$r=\sqrt{\dfrac{1.72\times 10^{-8}\times 7300}{10\pi}}$

r = 0.00199 m

$r=1.99\times 10^{-3}\ m=2\times 10^{-3}\ m$

The magnetic field on a current carrying wire is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}$

$I=\dfrac{2\pi rB}{\mu_o}$

$I=\dfrac{2\pi \times 0.1\times 2\times 10^{-3}}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}}$

I = 1000 A

So, the current of 1000 A is flowing through the copper wire. Hence, this is the required solution.

If you wanted to know how big a tiger is, which measurements would you use?

valina [46]

Answer:

meter, kilogram

Explanation:

Here we want to know how big the tiger is. This means that we want to measure its size and possibly its mass.

The size is actually a measure of the length of the tiger, and length is measured in meters.

The mass of an object, instead, is a measure of the "amount of matter" in the substance, and it is measured in kilograms.

The other options are wrong because:

- The second is the unit of time

- The candela is the unit of the luminous intensity

- The mole is the unit of the amount of substance, and it is used for gases

- The ampere is the unit of the current

A 4 kg car with frictionless wheels is on a ramp that makes a 25° angle with the horizontal. The car is connected to a 1 kg mass

stellarik [79]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

W₁ = (4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N
W₂ = (1 kg)*(9.8 m/s²) = 9.8 N

The normal reaction on the 4-kg mass is
N = (39.2 N)*cos(25°) = 35.5273 N
The force acting down the inclined plane due to the weight is
F = (39.2 N)*sin(25°) = 16.5666 N

The net force that accelerates the 4-kg mass at a m/²s down the plane is
F - W₂ = (4 kg)*(a m/s²)
4a = 16.5666 - 9.8
a = 1.6917 m/s²

Answer: 1.69 m/s² (nearest hundredth)

The motion of a car on a position time graph is represented with a horizontal tine What does this indicate about the car's motio

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Position-Time graphs display the motion of a object by showing the changes of velocity with respect to time.

The motion of a car on a position-time graph that is represented with a horizontal line indicates that the car has stopped moving.

A straight line with a positive slope indicates that the car is moving at a constant velocity, and thus the slope is constant. On the other hand, a curve with a changing slope, shows that the velocity is changing.
