Jupiter is made of gas(like Saturn, Uranus and Neptune). What would happen to the strength of gravity if you
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

a) The strength of gravity decreases if one moved away from Jupiter

b) The strength of gravity increases if one fell into Jupiter

Explanation:

The gravitational attraction is given by Newton law of gravitation as follows;

Force \ (strength) \ of \ gravity = \dfrac{G \times M \times m}{R^2}

Where;

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg·s²)

M = The mass of Jupiter

m = The mass of the nearby body

R = The distance between the centers of Jupiter and the body

From the equation, we have that the gravitational strength varies inversely with the square of the separation distance between two bodies

Therefore, as one moves away, R increases, and the strength of gravity reduces

Similarly as the body falls into Jupiter, R, reduces the gravitational strength increases.

Objects of equal mass are oscillating up and down in simple harmonic motion on two different vertical springs. The spring consta
Zanzabum

Answer:

k_2=920\ N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

The spring constant of spring 1, k_1=230\ N/m

The motion of the object on spring 1 has twice the amplitude as the motion of the object on spring 2, A_1=2A_2

As the magnitude of the maximum velocity is the same in each case, it means the maximum kinetic energy is same in each case. In other words, the total energy is same.

\dfrac{1}{2}k_1A_1^2=\dfrac{1}{2}k_2A_2^2

k_1A_1^2=k_2A_2^2

k_1(2A_2)^2=k_2A_2^2

k_2=920\ N/m

So, the spring constant of spring 2 is 920 N/m. Hence, this is the required solution.

A proton is moving toward a second, stationary proton. What happens as the protons get closer?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A. Kinetic energy is converted to electric potential energy, and the proton moves more slowly.

Explanation:

When a moving proton is brought close to a stationary one, the kinetic energy of the moving one is converted to electric potential  and the proton moves more slowly.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body. A moving proton will possess this form of energy.

Two protons according to coulombs law will repel each other with an electrostatic force because they both have similar charges. This will increase their electric potential energy of both of them.

Potential energy is the energy at rest of a body. As it increases, the motion of a body will be slower and it will tend towards being stationary.
