Question is missing:
"What is the gravitational force between the Sun and Jupiter?"
Answer:
Explanation:
The gravitational force between two objects is given by
where
is the gravitational constant
m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is the separation between the objects
In this problem, we have
is the mass of the sun
is the mass of Jupiter
is their separation
Solving the equation, we find
Answer:
Explanation:
Electric flux is defined as the flow of electric field intensity through a given surface.
Mathematically:
where:
E = electric field
A = area
θ = angle between the area vector and the electric field
Electric flux through the surface of a sphere will be uniform throughout the surface area due to a charge at the center of the sphere. The distance of the surface from the center is always at a constant distance of radius of the sphere.
Electric flux through the surface of a cube will be varying as the surface area is at a varying distance from the center of the cube. The distance of the surface from the center is not at a uniform distance from the center of the cube and so the projection of solid angle changes.
Answer: The gravitational acceleration on planet X is 5 N/kg
On Earth (with the gravitational accelartion g_E) the mass of 2kg will correspond to
On planet X we are told the same measure is only 10N. Since there is a proportional relationship between g and F, we can calculate g_X:
