Answer:

The gravitational force b) Increases with increase in mass.

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}F=Gr2m1m2

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

From the equation, we notice that:

- The force is proportional to the masses, m1 and m2: so, if the masses increase, the force will increase, and if the masses decrease, the force will decrease

- The force is inversely proportional to the distance between the masses, r: so, if the distance increases, the force will decreases, and if the distance decreases , the force will increases

Therefore, the correct options is only:

Increases with increase in mass

What is the strength of an electric field that will put a force of<br> 1.28 x 10-15 N on a proton?

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: E = 7,490.6 N/C

Explanation:

If we have a field E, and a particle with a charge q, the force that the particle experiences is:

F = E*q

In this case, we know that the force is:

F = 1.2*10^(-15) N

And we know that the particle is a proton, where the charge of a proton is:

q = 1.602*10^(-19) C

Then we can replace these two values in the equation to get:

1.2*10^(-15) N = E*1.602*10^(-19) C

We just need to isolate E.

(1.2*10^(-15) N)/(1.602*10^(-19) C) = E

7,490.6 N/C = E

That is the strength of the electric field.

What does Pascal's Law state? what are the implications of Pascal's law?

dybincka [34]

Answer:

Pascal's Law states that the pressure applied to a fluid in a closed container is transmitted equally to all points in the fluid and act in all directions of the container. ... Therefore, it can rightly be said that since the liquid does not flow, it definitely has equal pressure acting on it at all the points.

a sample contains 100 g of radioactive isotope. How much radioactive isotope will remain in the sample after 1 half-life?

kap26 [50]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{50g}$

Definition:

Half-life- The time taken for half of the radioactive isotopes to decay.

Explanation:

How does radioactive decay work? Radioactive decay is a process by which unstable nuclei become more stable through the emission of alpha or beta particles or gamma rays.

Since a half-life is the time taken for half of the isotopes to decay, we can simply divide the initial mass of 100 grams by 2; this gives us 50 grams.

1) Divide 100g by 2.

$\frac{100g}{2}=50g$

A flat coil of wire consisting of 15 turns, each with an area of 40 cm 2, is positioned perpendicularly to a uniform magnetic fi

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

0.54 A

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Number of turns, N = 15

Area of coil, A = 40 cm² = 0.004 m²

Change in magnetic field, ΔB = 5.1 - 1.5 = 3.6 T

Time interval, Δt = 2 secs

Resistance of the coil, R = 0.2 ohms

To get the magnitude of the current, we have to first find the magnitude of the EMF induced in the coil:

|V| = |(-N * ΔB * A) /Δt)

|V| = | (-15 * 3.6 * 0.004) / 2 |

|V| = 0.108 V

According to Ohm's law:

|V| = |I| * R

|I| = |V| / R

|I| = 0.108 / 0.2

|I| = 0.54 A

The magnitude of the current in the coil of wire is 0.54 A
