Answer:

A. 2.58m

Explanation:

Using the formula;

F = GMm/r²

M and m are the masses

G is the gravitational constant

r is the distance between the masses

Substitute

0.00006 = 6.67*10^-11(2000)(3000)/r²

0.00006r² = 6.67*10^-11*6000000

0.00006r² = 40.02*10^-5

0.00006r² = 0.0004

r² = 0.0004/0.00006

r² = 6.66

r = 2.58m

Hence the distance between them is 2.58m

Between 1911 and 1990, the top of the leaning bell tower at Pisa, Italy, moved toward the south at an average rate of 1.2 mm/y.T

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Angular speed, $\omega=6.90\times 10^{-13}\ rad/s$

Explanation:

It is given that,

The top of the leaning bell tower at Pisa, Italy, moved toward the south at an average rate of, v = 1.2 mm/yr

$1\ mm/yr=3.171\times 10^{-11}\ m/s$

Velocity, $v=3.80\times 10^{-11}\ m/s$

Height of the tower, h = 55 m

The height of the tower is equivalent to the radius. Let $\omega$ is the angular speed of the tower’s top about its base. The relation between the angular speed and the angular speed is given by :

$v=r\omega$

$\omega=\dfrac{v}{r}$

$\omega=\dfrac{3.80\times 10^{-11}\ m/s}{55\ m}$

$\omega=6.90\times 10^{-13}\ rad/s$

So, the average angular speed of the tower’s top about its base is $6.90\times 10^{-13}\ rad/s$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A shaving or makeup mirror is designed to magnify your face by a factor of 1.40 when your face is placed 20.0cm in front of it

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

(a) convex mirror

(b) virtual and magnified

Explanation:

The having mirror is convex mirror.

distance of object, u = - 20 cm

magnification, m = 1.4

(a) As the image is magnified and virtual , so the mirror is convex in nature.

(b) The image is virtual and magnified.

Use the formula of magnification.

$m =-\frac{v}{u}\\1.4=-\frac{v}{-20}\\v =28 cm$

Use the mirror equation, let the focal length is f.

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{28}+\frac{1}{20}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{28+20}{560}\\f=11.67cm$

Radius of curvature, R = 2 f = 2 x 11.67 = 23.3 cm

What is the monthly cost of using a 750 W refrigerator that runs for 8 hours every day, if the cost per kWh is $0.23?

disa [49]

Answer:

Assuming there are 28 days in each month,

750W = 0.75kW

Cost of electric bill = 0.75 × 8 × 28 × $0.23

= $38.64
