Answer:

537 N

Explanation:

The force due to gravity of a planet is:

F = GMm / r²

where G is the universal gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

m is the mass of the object

and r is the distance between the object and the center of the planet

On Earth, you weigh 716 N, so:

716 N = GMm / r²

On planet X:

F = G (3M) m / (2r)²

F = 3/4 GMm / r²

F = 3/4 (716 N)

F = 537 N

A series circuit that is connected to a 50 V, 60 Hz source is made up of 25 ohm resistor, capacite wieh X= 18 ohms, and inductor

Allisa [31]

Answer:

the impedance of the circuit is 25.7 ohms.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage, V = 50 volts

Frequency, f = 60 Hz

Resistance, R = 25 ohms

Capacitive resistance, $X_C=18\ ohms$

Inductive resistance, $X_L=24\ ohms$

We need to find the impedance of the circuit. It is given by :

$Z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_C)^2}$

$Z=\sqrt{25^2+(24-18)^2}$

Z = 25.7 ohms

So, the impedance of the circuit is 25.7 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

You charge an initially uncharged 65.7-mf capacitor through a 39.1-Ï resistor by means of a 9.00-v battery having negligible int

uysha [10]

In a RC-circuit, with the capacitor initially uncharged, when we connect the battery to the circuit the charge on the capacitor starts to increase following the law:
$Q(t) = Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau})$
where t is the time, $Q_0 = CV$ is the maximum charge on the capacitor at voltage V, and $\tau = RC$ is the time constant of the circuit.
Using this law, we can answer all the three questions of the problem.

1) Using $R=39.1 \Omega$ and $C= 65.7 mF=65.7\cdot 10^{-3}F$ , the time constant of the circuit is:
$\tau = RC=(39.1 \Omega)(65.7 \cdot 10^{-3}F)=2.57 s$

2) To find the charge on the capacitor at time $t=1.95 \tau$ , we must find before the maximum charge on the capacitor, which is
$Q_0 = CV=(65.7 \cdot 10^{-3}F)(9 V)=0.59 C$
And then, the charge at time $t=1.95 \tau$ is equal to
$Q(1.95 \tau) = Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau})=(0.59 C)(1-e^{-1.95})=0.51 C$

3) After a long time (let's say much larger than the time constant of the circuit), the capacitor will be fully charged, this means its charge will be $Q_0 = 0.59 C$ . We can see this also from the previous formule, by using $t=\infty$ :
$Q(t) = Q_0 (1-e^{-\infty})=Q_0(1-0) = 0.59 C$

vekshin1

Answer:

Explanation:

Part A) Using

light intensity I= P/A

A= Area= π (Radius)^2= π((0.67*10^-6m)/(2))^2= 1.12*10^-13 m^2

Radius= Diameter/2

P= power= 10*10^-3=0.01 W

light intensity I= 0.01/(1.12*10^-13)= 9*10^10 W/m^2

Part B) Using

I=c*ε*E^2/2

rearrange to solve for E= $\sqrt{$ ((I*2)/(c*ε))

c is the speed of light which is 3*10^8 m/s^2

ε=permittivity of free space or dielectric constant= 8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1

I= the already solved light intensity= 8.85*10^10 W/m^2

amplitude of the electric field E= $\sqrt{$ (9*10^10 W/m^2)*(2) / (3*10^8 m/s^2)*(8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1)

---> E= $\sqrt{$ (1.8*10^11) / (2.66*10^-3) = $\sqrt{$ (6.8*10^13) = 8.25*10^6 V/m

a car travels from station A to B at 30kmph during its return trip A it travels 30 km pH for the first half distance and it 70 k

8_murik_8 [283]

Explanation:

If you cannot visualize it, just assume that the distance from station A to B is 420km. Each half is 210km.

When the car travels from A to B, it takes 420/30 = 14 hours.

When the car travels from B to the halfway point, it takes 210/30 = 7 hours.

When the car travels from the halfway point to A, it takes 210/70 = 3 hours.

Total time taken = 14 + 7 + 3 = 24 hours.

Total distance = 420km * 2 = 840km.

Hence, the average speed of the car is 840/24 = 35km/h.
