Answer:

F = G M m / R^2 gravitational force on planet of mass m.

None of these quantities change in the given hypothesis so

there will be no change in the orbit of mass m

Over [174]

Given that,

Mass of a tribble, m = 2.5 kg

Radius, r = 1.4 m

The force on the tribble from the bucket does not exceed 10 times its weight.

To find,

The maximum tangential speed.

Solution,

The force acting on the tribble is equal to the centripetal force.

F = 10mg

The formula for the centripetal force is given by :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v is maximum tangential speed

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{mgr}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{{10gr}} \\\\v=\sqrt{10\times 9.8\times 1.4} \\\\v=11.7\ m/s

So, the maximum tangential speed is 11.7 m/s.

As mass increases what happens to the kinetic energy
AnnyKZ [126]
As mass increases kinetic energy also increases; kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass so whatever is done to either affects the other one the same. i hope this helps :)

Which form of energy does a plant store when light is transformed during photosynthesis into sugars?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

C. Chemical energy

Explanation:

The different types of energy listed in this question are:

A) Electrical energy: it is the energy related to the flow of electrical charges (current)

B) Nuclear energy: it is the energy contained in the nuclei of the atoms, and released during nuclear reactions

C) Chemical energy: it is the energy contained in the bonds between molecules, and it is released during chemical reactions

D) Thermal energy: it is the energy associated with the motion of molecules

Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to transform the light energy (coming from the Sun) into chemical energy. In fact, in this process, plants absorb CO2 (from the atmosphere) and solar energy (from the light), and they convert them into sugars (glucose) and oxygen. Therefore, the initial energy coming as solar energy is converted into energy of the bonds of the molecules of glucose (so, chemical energy).

So, the correct option is C).

Assignment 10 Coulombic Equation Practice Directions: Complete the following problems to calculate the electrostatic force that
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Magnitude of the force between the charges is F = 1.92×10^20N

Explanation:

Given the magnitude of force according to coulombs law

F =K[(q1*q2)/r2]

Where q1 and q2 are the charges

r is the distance between the charges

K is the coulombs constant

Substituting the given values, we have;

F = 8.98×10^9 × 1.5×10^6 × 3.2×10^4/1.5²

F = 43.1×10^19/2.25

F = 19.16×10^19N

F = 1.92×10^20N
