Our solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust. The cloud collapsed, possibly due to the shockwave of a nearby exploding star, called a supernova. When this dust cloud collapsed, it formed a solar nebula—a spinning, swirling disk of material.

At the center, gravity pulled more and more material in. Eventually the pressure in the core was so great that hydrogen atoms began to combine and form helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy. With that, our Sun was born, and it eventually amassed more than 99 percent of the available matter.

Matter farther out in the disk was also clumping together. These clumps smashed into one another, forming larger and larger objects. Some of them grew big enough for their gravity to shape them into spheres, becoming planets, dwarf planets and large moons. In other cases, planets did not form: the asteroid belt is made of bits and pieces of the early solar system that could never quite come together into a planet. Other smaller leftover pieces became asteroids, comets, meteoroids, and small, irregular moons.

Two equally charged tiny spheres of mass 1.0 g are placed 2.0 cm apart. When released, they begin to accelerate away from each o

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is 0.135 μC

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 1.0

Distance = 2.0 cm

Acceleration = 414 m/s²

We need to calculate the magnitude of charge

Using newton's second law

$F= ma$

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

Put the value of F

$a=\dfrac{kq^2}{mr^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$414=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times q^2}{1.0\times10^{-3}\times(2.0\times10^{-2})^2}$

$q^2=\dfrac{414\times1.0\times10^{-3}\times(2.0\times10^{-2})^2}{9\times10^{9}}$

$q^2=1.84\times10^{-14}$

$q=0.135\times10^{-6}\ C$

$q=0.135\ \mu C$

Hence, The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is 0.135μC.

What must be the magnitude of a uniform electric field if it is to have the same energy density as that possessed by a 0.50 T ma

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

E = 1.50 × $10^{8}$ V/m

Explanation:

given data

B = 0.50 T

solution

we know that energy density by the magnetic field is express as

$\mu _b = \frac{B}{2\mu _o}$ ...............1

and

energy density due to electric filed is

$\mu _e = \frac{\epsilon _o E^2}{2}$ ...............2

and here $\mu _b = \mu _ e$

so that

E = $\frac{B}{\sqrt{\mu _o \times \epsilon _o}}$ ...................3

put here value and we get

$E = \frac{0.50}{\sqrt{4\pi \times 10^{-7} \times 8.852 \times 10^{-12}}}$

E = 3 × $10^{8}$ × 0.50

E = 1.50 × $10^{8}$ V/m

Write a short note on escape velocity.

andrezito [222]

Answer:

physics, escape velocity is the minimum speed needed for an object to escape from the gravitational influence of a massive body. The escape velocity from Earth is about 11.186 km/s (6.951 mi/s; 40,270 km/h; 25,020 mph)[1] at the surface. ... [2] Speeds higher than escape velocity have a positive speed at infinity.
