anzhelika [568]3 years ago

Answer:

When Copernicus first systematically created his Sun-centered model of the universe, it did not lead to substantially better predictions of planetary positions than the Ptolemaic model because the Catholic Church, which was the power at the time, stated it was false, and anybody who believed Copernicus and spread the "myth" were excommunicated or even executed. This was because a sun centered universe would mean that everything the Catholic Church had been teaching about how the Earth was the center of the universe would be false. If people believed it, the church would no longer be seen as the infallible authority, so they needed to stop it from spreading.

The force of attraction that holds two atoms together within a molecule is
makvit [3.9K]

Answer: The force of attraction that holds two molecules is a chemical bond

Explanation:

What is Chemical bonds?

Chemical bonds are forces that hold atoms together to make compounds or molecules.

Types of chemical bonds

Chemical bonds include

1.covalent,

2. polar covalent, and

3. ionic bonds.

Atoms with relatively similar electronegativities share electrons between them and are connected by covalent bonds.

Two thin concentric spherical shells of radii r1 and r2 (r1 < r2) contain uniform surface charge densities V1 and V2, respect
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

We know that the Electric field inside the thin hollow shell is zero, if there is no charge inside it.

So,

a)  0 < r < r1 :

We know that the Electric field inside the thin hollow shell is zero, if there is no charge inside it.

Hence, E = 0 for r < r1

b)  r1 < r < r2:

Electric field =?

Let, us consider the Gaussian Surface,

E x 4 \pi r^{2}  = \frac{Q1}{E_{0} }

So,

Rearranging the above equation to get Electric field, we will get:

E = \frac{Q1}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   }

Multiply and divide by r1^{2}

E = \frac{Q1}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   } x \frac{r1^{2} }{r1^{2} }

Rearranging the above equation, we will get Electric Field for r1 < r < r2:

E= (σ1 x r1^{2}) /(E_{0} x r^{2})

c) r > r2 :

Electric Field = ?

E x 4 \pi r^{2}  = \frac{Q1 + Q2}{E_{0} }

Rearranging the above equation for E:

E = \frac{Q1+Q2}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   }

E = \frac{Q1}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   } + \frac{Q2}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   }

As we know from above, that:

\frac{Q1}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   } =  (σ1 x r1^{2}) /(E_{0} x r^{2})

Then, Similarly,

\frac{Q2}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   } = (σ2 x r2^{2}) /(E_{0} x r^{2})

So,

E = \frac{Q1}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   } + \frac{Q2}{E_{0} . 4 \pi. r^{2}   }

Replacing the above equations to get E:

E = (σ1 x r1^{2}) /(E_{0} x r^{2}) + (σ2 x r2^{2}) /(E_{0} x r^{2})

Now, for

d) Under what conditions,  E = 0, for r > r2?

For r > r2, E =0 if

σ1 x r1^{2} = - σ2 x r2^{2}

The force of attraction between a ball is F=.........×10^-¹¹
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

4.45×10¯¹¹ N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of ball (M₁) = 4 Kg

Mass of bowling pin (M₂) = 1.5 Kg

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

Distance apart (r) = 3 m

Force of attraction (F) =?

The force of attraction between the ball and the bowling pin can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

F = 6.67×10¯¹¹ × 4 × 1.5 / 3²

F = 4.002×10¯¹⁰ / 9

F = 4.45×10¯¹¹ N

Therefore, the force of attraction between the ball and the bowling pin is 4.45×10¯¹¹ N

A pressure that will support a column of Hg to a height of 256 mm would support a column of water to what height? The density of
Paul [167]

Answer:

<em>The height of water in the column = 348.14 cm</em>

Explanation:

<em>Pressure:</em><em>This is defined as the ratio of the force acting normally ( perpendicular) to the area of surface in contact. The S.I unit of  pressure is N/m²</em>

<em>p = Dgh............... Equation 1</em>

<em>Where p = pressure, D = density, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.</em>

<em>From the question, the same pressure will support the column of mercury and water.</em>

<em>p₁ = p₂</em>

<em>Where p₁ = pressure of mercury, p₂ = pressure of water</em>

D₁gh₁ = D₂gh₂.................. Equation 2

making h₂ the subject of equation 2

h₂ = D₁gh/D₂g............... Equation 3

Where D₁ and D₂ = Density of mercury and water respectively, h₁ and h₂ = height of mercury and water respectively

Given: D₁ = 13.6 g/cm³, D₂ = 1.00 g/cm³, h₁ = 256 mm = 25.6 cm.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substituting these values into Equation 3,

h₂ = (13.6×9.8×25.6)/1×9.8

<em>h₂ = 348.14 cm</em>

<em>The height of water in the column = 348.14 cm</em>
