Answer:

F = 29.64 × 10-¹¹N

Explanation:

From newton's law of gravitation which states that every object in the universe will attract each other with a force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

That is,   F = (Gm1m2)/ r²

From the question m1=4kg, m2 = 2.5kg, r= 1.5m,G = 6.67×10-¹¹

F=( 6.67×10-¹¹ × 4 × 2.5) / 1.5²

F = (66.7×10-¹¹) / 2.25

F = 66.7/2.25 × 10-¹¹ N

F = 29.64 × 10-¹¹N

F = 29.64 × 10-¹¹N

A cubical wooden box floating on water rises 1cm when 400 gm of stone is
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Explanation:

I'm not  sure you can do this without just a bit more information. I can tell you what the mass of the water is when the rocks are removed. When we know that, we know the volume of the water that was displaced. whether or not this is enough information to determine the volume of the box, I'm not sure.

400 grams raises the box 1 cm.

The density of water = 1 gm / cm^3

400 grams of water = 400 mL or 400 cm^3

The volume of the displaced water = 400 cm^3

The volume a slice from the square prism is B*h

B = 400 cm^2

h = 1 cm

If the base is 400 cm^2 then each side is

s^2 = 400

sqrt(s^2)= sqrt(400)

s = 20

The volume of the box is 20^3 = 8000 cm^3

The acceleration of a train moving from rest and its speed reaches 36m/sec in 9 sec​
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

4 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration is defined as: Δv/Δt (the difference of the velocity over a time period in which happens that difference).

Remember that a difference is calculated by subtracting the initial value of a physical quantity from its final value.

In our case:

Δv = Vfinal - Vinitial = 36m/s - 0 m/s = 36m/s

Δt = 9s

a = Δv/Δt = 36m/s / 9s = 4m/s^2

A ball rolls across a floor with an acceleration of 0.100 m/s2 in a direction opposite to its velocity. The ball has a velocity
Westkost [7]

Answer:

4.15 m/s

Explanation:

Its given that acceleration is 0.1 m/s² with a direction opposite to the velocity. Since, the direction of acceleration is opposite to the velocity, this gives us a hint that the velocity is decreasing and so acceleration would be negative.

i.e.

acceleration = a = - 0.1 m/s²

Distance covered = S = 6m

Velocity after covering 6 meters = Final velocity = v_{f} = 4 m/s

We need to find the initial speed, which will be the same as the magnitude of initial velocity.

Initial velocity = v_{i} =  ?

3rd equation of motion relates the acceleration, distance, final velocity and initial velocity as:

2aS = (v_{f})^{2}-(v_{i})^{2}

Using the known values in the formula, we get:

2(-0.1)(6)=(4)^{2}- (v_{i})^{2}\\\\ (v_{i})^{2}=16+1.2\\\\ (v_{i})^{2}=17.2\\\\ v_{i}=4.15

Thus, the initial speed of the ball was 4.15 m/s

Why would you expect the speed of light to be slightly less in the atmosphere then in a vacuum?
azamat

The speed of light to be slightly less in atmosphere then in vacuum because of absorption and re-emission of light by the atmospheric molecules occurred when light travels through a material

<u>Explanation:</u>

When light passes through atmosphere, it interacts or transmits through the transparent molecules in atmosphere. In this process of transmission through atmosphere, the light will be getting absorbed by them and some will get re-emitted or refracted depending upon wavelength.

But in vacuum the absence of any kind of particles will lead to no interaction and no energy loss, thus the speed of the light will be same in vacuum while due to interactions with molecules of atmosphere, there speed will be slightly less compared to in vacuum.
