Astronauts need sophisticated spacesuits to protect them from the harsh conditions of space. These spacesuits are very heavy for

astronauts to wear on Earth. For an astronaut on the Moon, however, the suit would seem lighter. Which of the following statements explains why the spacesuit would feel lighter on the Moon?
A. There is no gravity on the Moon.
B. Earth’s gravity can’t be felt from the Moon.
C. The force of the Moon’s gravity is less than Earth’s.
D. The force of the Sun’s gravitational attraction varies throughout the Solar System and is stronger closer to Earth.

An α-particle has a charge of +2e and a mass of 6.64 × 10-27 kg. It is accelerated from rest through a potential difference that

zzz [600]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Charge on alpha particle=q=2 e= $2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

1 e= $1.6\times 10^{-19} C$

Mass of alpha particle=m= $6.64\times 10^{-27} kg$

Potential difference,V= $1.97\times 10^6 V$

Magnetic field,B=3.49 T

a.Speed of alpha particle=v= $\sqrt{\frac{2 qV}{m}}$

By using the formula

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.97\times 10^6}{6.64\times 10^{-27}}$

$v=1.38\times 10^7 m/s$

b.Magnetic force,F $=qvB=2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.38\times 10^7\times 3.49=1.5\times 10^{-11} N$

F= $1.5\times 10^{-11} N$

c.Radius of circular path, r= $\frac{mv^2}{F}$

$r= \frac{6.64\times 10^{-27}\times (1.38\times 10^7)^2}{1.5\times 10^{-11}}$

r=0.084 m

The magnitude E of an electric field depends on the radial distance r according to E = A/r4, where A is a constant with unit vol

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

$\Delta V = 0.053 A$

Explanation:

Electric field in a given region is given by equation

$E = \frac{A}{r^4}$

as we know the relation between electric field and potential difference is given as

$\Delta V = -\int E. dr$

so here we have

$\Delta V = - \int (\frac{A}{r^4}) .dr$

$\Delta V = \frac{A}{3r_1^3} - \frac{A}{3r_2^3}$

here we know that

$r_1 = 1.71 m$ and $r_2 = 2.89 m$

so we will have

$\Delta V = \frac{A}{3}(\frac{1}{1.71^3} - \frac{1}{2.89^3})$

so we will have

$\Delta V = 0.053 A$

The distance to the other planets in the Solar System from the Earth depends on where they are in their orbit. The closest that

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

3.6 arcsec

Explanation:

angular diameter = diameter / distance

diameter is constant

so angular diameter ∝ 1 / distance

angular diameter = k / distance

For first case ,

18 = k / .5

for second case let angular diameter be D .

D = k / 2.5

dividing ,

D / 18 = .5 / 2.5 = 1 / 5

D = 18 / 5 = 3.6 arcsec

3.6 arcsec is the answer .

An elevator filled with passengers has a mass of 1603 kg. (a) The elevator accelerates upward from rest at a rate of 1.20 m/s2 f

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

T = 17649.03 N = 17.65 KN

Explanation:

The tension in the cable must be equal to the apparent weight of the passenger. For upward acceleration:

$T = W_A = m(g+a)\\$

where,

T = Tension in cable = ?

$W_A$ = Apparent weight

m = mass = 1603 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

a = acceleration of elevator = 1.2 m/s²

Therefore,

$T = (1603\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2+1.2\ m/s^2)\\\\$

<u>T = 17649.03 N = 17.65 KN</u>
