g In 1956, Frank Lloyd Wright proposed the construction of a mile-high building in Chicago. Suppose the building had been constr
Lorico [155]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to acceleration due to gravity, as well as Newton's second law that describes the weight based on its mass and the acceleration of the celestial body on which it depends.

In other words the acceleration can be described as

a = \frac{GM}{r^2}

Where

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius of Earth

This equation can be differentiated with respect to the radius of change, that is

\frac{da}{dr} = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}

da = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr

At the same time since Newton's second law we know that:

F_w = ma

Where,

m = mass

a =Acceleration

From the previous value given for acceleration we have to

F_W = m (\frac{GM}{r^2} ) = 600N

Finally to find the change in weight it is necessary to differentiate the Force with respect to the acceleration, then:

dF_W = mda

dF_W = m(-2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr)

dF_W = -2(m\frac{GM}{r^2})(\frac{dr}{r})

dF_W = -2F_W(\frac{dr}{r})

But we know that the total weight (F_W) is equivalent to 600N, and that the change during each mile in kilometers is 1.6km or 1600m therefore:

dF_W = -2(600)(\frac{1.6*10^3}{6.37*10^6})

dF_W = -0.3N

Therefore there is a weight loss of 0.3N every kilometer.

What is Light ?<br> What are 7 spectrums of Light ?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Light or visible light is electromagnetic radiation within the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is perceived by the human eye. Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres, between the infrared and the ultraviolet.

Here are the 7 from shortest to longest wavelength.

Violet - shortest wavelength, around 400-420 nanometers with highest frequency.  

Indigo - 420 - 440 nm.

Blue - 440 - 490 nm.

Green - 490 - 570 nm.

Yellow - 570 - 585 nm.

Orange - 585 - 620 nm.

Red - longest wavelength, at around 620 - 780 nanometers with lowest frequency.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Complete question is;. A 73mH solenoid inductor is wound on a form that is 0.80m long and 0.10m in diameter a coil having a resistance of 7.7 ohms is tightly wound around the solenoid at its center the mutual inductance of the coil and solenoid is 19μH at a given instant the current in the solenoid is 820mA and is decreasing at the rate of 2.5A/s at the given instant what is the induced current in the coil

Answer:

6.169 μA

Explanation:

Formula for induced EMF is given by the equation;

EMF = M(di/dt). We are given;

di/dt = 2.5 A/s

M = 19μH = 19 × 10^(-6) H

Thus;

EMF = 19 × 10^(-6) × 2.5.

EMF = 47.5 × 10^(-6) V

Formula for current is;

i = EMF/R. R is resistance given as 7.7 ohms.

Thus; i = 47.5 × 10^(-6)/7.7

i = 6.169 μA
