A decrease in mass will decrease an objects weight because
weight = mass x gravitational constant
Answer:
Explanation:
Current, I = 6 A
diameter of wire, d = 2.05 mm
number of electrons per unit volume, n = 8.5 x 10^28
If the diameter is doubled,
The resistance of the wire is inversely proportional to the square of the diameter of the wire, so the resistance is one forth an the current is directly proportional to the diameter of the wire so the current is four times the initial value.
Answer:
A. It is always a positive force
Explanation:
Hooke's law describes the relation between an applied force and extension ability of an elastic material. The law states that provided the elastic limit, e, of a material is not exceeded, the force, F, applied is proportional to the extension, x, provided temperature is constant.
i.e F = - kx
where k is the constant of proportionality, and the minus sign implies that the force is a restoring force.
The applied force can either be compressing or stretching force.
Answer: Electromagnetic radiation
Explanation:
Electromagnetic radiation is a combination of oscillating electric and magnetic fields, which propagate through space carrying energy from one place to another.
To understand it better:
This radiation is spread thanks to the electromagnetic fields produced by moving electric charges and their sources can be natural or man-made.
It should be noted that the energy of electromagnetic radiation can vary and depending on its frequency it can be useful for various situations.
Gravity obeys the inverse square law. At 6400 km above the center of the Earth (Earth's surface) you weigh x. Twice that reduces your weight to 1/4th. Four times that height reduces your weight to 1/16th. 4 times 6400 km is 25,600 km. But that is above the center of the earth, and the question requests the height above the surface, so we deduct 6400 km to arrive at our final answer: 19,200 km.
Incidentally, it doesn't exactly work the opposite way. At the center of the Earth the mass would be equally distributed around you, and you would therefore be weightless.
