The mass of the planet Gallifrey is 8 times the mass of the Earth.

let the gravitational field of Earth = g
let the radius of the Earth = R
gravitational field of Gallifrey = 2g
radius of Gallifrey = 2R

<h3>What is gravitational potential energy?</h3>

This is the work done in moving an object to a certain distance against gravitational field.

The gravitational field strength of the Earth is given as follows;

$g = \frac{GM}{r^2} \\\\G = \frac{gr^2}{M}$

The gravitational field strength of the Planet Gallifrey is calculated as follows;

$g_2 = \frac{GM_2}{r_2^2}$

$G = \frac{g_2r_2^2}{M_2} \\\\\frac{g_2r_2^2}{M_2} = \frac{gr^2}{M}\\\\M_2gr^2 = Mg_2r_2^2\\\\M_2 = \frac{Mg_2r_2^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = \frac{M \times 2g \times (2r)^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = \frac{M \times 2g \times 4r^2}{gr^2} \\\\M_2 = 8M$

Thus, the mass of the planet Gallifrey is 8 times the mass of the Earth.

What is the bouncing of light when it changes media

matrenka [14]

When light passes from one medium to another, part of it continues on
into the new medium, while the rest of it bounces away from the boundary,
back into the first medium.

The part of the light that continues on into the new medium is transmitted
light. Its forward progress at any point in its journey is transmission.

Its direction usually changes as it crosses the boundary. The bending is 
refraction.

The part of the light that bounces away from the boundary and heads back
into the first medium is reflected light. The process of bouncing is reflection.

A) A mass spectrometer has a velocity selector that allows ions traveling at only one speed to pass with no deflection through s

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

(A). The speed of the ions is $1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(B). The radius of curvature of a singly charged lithium ion is $2.0\times10^{6}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 60000 N/C

Magnetic field = 0.0500 T

(A). We need to calculate the velocity

For no deflection

$F_{E}=F_{B}$

$Eq=Bqv$

$v = \dfrac{E}{B}$

$v=\dfrac{60000}{0.0500}$

$v=1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(B). We need to calculate the radius

Using magnetic force balance by centripetal force

$Bqv=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$r=\dfrac{mv^2}{Bqv}$

Put the value into the formula

$r=\dfrac{1.16\times10^{-26}\times(1.2\times10^{6})^2}{0.0500\times1.6\times10^{-19}}$

$r=2.0\times10^{6}\ m$

Hence, (A). The speed of the ions is $1.2\times10^{6}\ m/s$

(B). The radius of curvature of a singly charged lithium ion is $2.0\times10^{6}\ m$

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The charge density in the system is $4.25*10^4C/m$

Explanation:

To solve this problem it is necessary to keep in mind the concepts related to current and voltage through the density of electrons in a given area, considering their respective charge.

Our data given correspond to:

$r=1*10^{-3}m\\v = 5.2*10^{-4}m/s\\e= 1.6*10^{-19}C$
