Answer:

1.704 × 10¹⁹ electrons

Explanation:

The gravitational force due to the identical masses with mass, m = 3.17 kg at a distance r = 2.96 m from each other is F = Gm²/r².

Since equal number of electrons have to leave both masses, we have a charge q on each mass acting to oppose each other at distance r.

So, the electrical force of repulsion is thus

F'= kq²/r²

For the net force to be zero, the gravitational force of attraction must balance the electrical force of repulsion.

So, F = F'

So,  Gm²/r² = kq²/r²

Gm² = kq²

q² = Gm²/k

taking square root of both sides, we have

q = m√(G/k)

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

q = m√(G/k)

= 3.17 kg√(6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²/9 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²)

= 3.17 kg√(0.741  × 10⁻²⁰ C²/kg²)

= 3.17 kg × 0.861 C/kg

= 2.73 C

Now, q = ne where n = number of electrons and e = electron charge = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

n = q/e

= 2.73 C ÷ 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

= 1.704 × 10¹⁹ electrons

An experiment is conducted such that an applied force is exerted on a 5kg object as it travels across a horizontal surface in wh
Katen [24]

If an experiment is conducted such that an applied force is exerted on an object, a student could use the graph to determine the net work done on the object.

The  graph of the net force exerted on the object as a function of the object’s distance traveled is attached below.

  • A student could use the graph to determine the net work done on the object by Calculating the area bound by the line of best fit and the horizontal axis from 0m to 5m

One end of a 7-cm-long spring is attached to the ceiling. When a 5.4 kg mass is hung from the other end, the spring is stretched
mash [69]

Answer:

2.63 cm

Explanation:

Hooke's law gives that the force F is equal to cy where c is spring constant and x is extension

Making c the subject of the formula then

c=\frac {F}{y}

Since F is gm but taking the given mass to be F

c=\frac {5.4 kg}{4.3 cm}=1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930

By substitution now considering F to be 3.3 kg

y=\frac {3.3 kg}{1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930}=2.6277777777777 cm\approx 2.63 cm

A star is moving away from an observer. Toward which end of the spectrum does its visible light shift?.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Redshift, or lower power

Explanation:

doppler effect

waves get stretched when you are moving away from something, and squished when you are moving towards it. Imagine you have a long, bent wire. if you stretch out the wire, the wavelength becomes longer. This also applies to sound.
