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

Can you access an instance variable from a static method? explain why or why not.
marusya05 [52]
<span>The reason a static method can't access instance variable is because static references the class not a specific instance of the class so there is no instance variable to access.</span>

A 1 pound bucket rests on a table. What is the support force exerted on the bucket by the table? What is the support force when
katrin2010 [14]

This question involves the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's third law of motion.

The support force will be "1 pound" for the empty bucket and the support force will be "6 pounds" after pouring water into it.

  • According to the condition of equilibrium, the sum of forces acting on a stationary object must be zero. Hence, the support force of the table will be equal to the total mass of the bucket.
  • According to Newton's Third Law of Motion every action force has an equal but opposite reaction force. Hence, the support force will be a reaction force to the weight of the bucket.

Therefore, the support force in each case will be equal to the total mass of the bucket:

Case 1 (empty bucket):

<u>support force = 1 pound</u>

<u></u>

Case 1 (water poured):

support force = 1 pound + 5 pound

<u>support force = 6 pound</u>

<u></u>

A. Made of the marble.

the mass remains constant when you drop the marble but the rest of the variables change as the marble is dropped, therefore, the only constant variable is its mass.
