We are going to focus on the gravitational force between Earth and our Moon. The Earth has a mass of about 6 x 10/24 kg and the

Moon has a
mass of about 7.3 x 10/22 kg. They are also currently about 4 x 10/8 meters apart.

The gravitational constant, G, is 6.67 x 10-/11 as always.

Question 1
If you were to weight yourself in the moon and the Earth, which would have the higher weight?

Answer

Gravity is what holds us down on the earth's (or moon's) surface. If you were to weigh yourself on a scale on Earth and then on the moon, the weight read on the moon would be 1/6 your earth weight

A grindstone of radius 4.0 m is initially spinning with an angular speed of 8.0 rad/s. The angular speed is then increased to 12
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: 6.36

Explanation:

Given

Radius of grindstone, r = 4 m

Initial angular speed of grindstone, w(i) = 8 rad/s

Final angular speed of the grindstone, w(f) = 12 rad/s

Time used, t = 4 s

Angular acceleration of the grinder,

α = Δw / t

α = w(f) - w(i) / t

α = (12 - 8) / 4

α = 4/4 = 1 rad/s²

Number of complete revolution in 4s =

Δθ = w(i).t + 1/2.α.t²

Δθ = 8 * 4 + 1/2 * 1 * 4²

Δθ = 32 + 1/2 * 16

Δθ = 32 + 8

Δθ = 40 rad/s

40 rad/s = 40/2π rpm = 6.36 rpm

Therefore, the grindstone does 6.36 revolutions during the 4 s interval

Assume the radius of an atom, which can be represented as a hard sphere, is r = 1.95 Å. The atom is placed in a (a) simple cubic
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

(a) A = 3.90 \AA

(b) A = 4.50 \AA

(c) A = 5.51 \AA

(d) A = 9.02 \AA

Solution:

As per the question:

Radius of atom, r = 1.95 \AA = 1.95\times 10^{- 10} m

Now,

(a) For a simple cubic lattice, lattice constant A:

A = 2r

A = 2\times 1.95 = 3.90 \AA

(b) For body centered cubic lattice:

A = \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}r

A = \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}\times 1.95 = 4.50 \AA

(c) For face centered cubic lattice:

A = 2{\sqrt{2}}r

A = 2{\sqrt{2}}\times 1.95 = 5.51 \AA

(d) For diamond lattice:

A = 2\times \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}r

A = 2\times \frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}\times 1.95 = 9.02 \AA

Can a average velocity be zero.Why? ​
marishachu [46]

<u>Answer:</u>

Yes

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average velocity is the ratio of total displacement and time taken for that displacement:

average \space\ velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}

This means if displacement is zero, then average velocity will also be zero.

Displacement is zero when an object moves some distance in one direction, and then moves the same distance but in the opposite direction.

∴ As it is possible for displacement to be zero, it is also possible for average velocity to be zero.

What line in the sky is created by our revolution around the Sun?
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Ecliptic

Explanation:

You asked for the term that is used to describe Earth going around the sun

The ecliptic is the path the sun, moon, and planets take across the sky as seen from Earth. It best defines the plane of the Earth's orbit around the sun. The imaginary line can best be visualized in the days just before full moon.
