Complete question :

NASA is concerned about the ability of a future lunar outpost to store the supplies necessary to support the astronauts the supply storage area of the lunar outpost where gravity is 1.63m/s/s can only support 1 x 10 over 5 N. What is the maximum WEIGHT of supplies, as measured on EARTH, NASA should plan on sending to the lunar outpost?

Answer:

601000 N

Explanation:

Given that :

Acceleration due to gravity at lunar outpost = 1.6m/s²

Supported Weight of supplies = 1 * 10^5 N

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface = 9.8m/s²

Maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH :

Ratio of earth gravity to lunar post gravity:

(Earth gravity / Lunar post gravity) ;

(9.8 / 1.63) = 6.01

Hence, maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH should be :

6.01 * (1 × 10^5)

6.01 × 10^5

= 601000 N

A 0.10 g honeybee acquires a charge of +23 pC while flying.
kari74 [83]

Answer:

a) \frac{F}{w} =2.347\times 10^{-6}\ N

b) E=4.2609\times 10^7\ N.C^{-1} parallel to the earth surface.

  • In this case according to the Fleming's left hand rule the direction of movement of bee must be in a direction parallel to the earth surface and perpendicular to the electric field at the same time.

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the bee, m=10^{-4}\ kg

charge acquired by the bee, q_2=23\times 10^{-12}\ C

a.

Electrical field near the earth surface, E=100\ N.C^{-1}

Now the electric force on the bee:

we know:

F=\frac{1}{4\pi.\epsilon_0} \times \frac{q_1.q_2}{r^2}

F=E.q_2

F=100\times 23\times 10^{-12}

F=23\times 10^{-10}\ N

The weight of the bee:

w=m.g

w=10^{-4}\times 9.8

w=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N

Therefore the ratio :

\frac{F}{w} =\frac{23\times 10^{-10}}{9.8\times10^{-4}}

\frac{F}{w} =2.347\times 10^{-6}\ N

b.

The condition for the bee to hang is its weight must get balanced by the electric force acing equally in the opposite direction.

So,

F=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N

E.q_2=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N

E\times 23\times 10^{-12}=9.8\times10^{-4}\ N

E=4.2609\times 10^7\ N.C^{-1} parallel to the earth surface.

  • In this case according to the Fleming's left hand rule the direction of movement of bee must be in a direction parallel to the earth surface and perpendicular to the electric field at the same time.
