Answer:
weight at height = 100 N .
Explanation:
The problem relates to variation of weight due to change in height .
Let g₀ and g₁ be acceleration due to gravity , m is mass of the object .
At the surface :
Applying Newton's law of gravitation
mg₀ = G Mm / R²
At height h from centre
mg₁ = G Mm /h²
Given mg₀ = 400 N
400 = G Mm / R²
400 = G Mm / (6400 x 10³ )²
G Mm = 400 x (6400 x 10³ )²
At height h from centre
mg₁ = 400 x (6400 x 10³ )²/ ( 2 x 6400 x 10³)²
= 400 / 4
= 100 N .
weight at height = 100 N
Answer:
The structure of Germanium crystals will be destroyed at higher temperature. However, Silicon crystals are not easily damaged by excess heat. Peak Inverse Voltage ratings of Silicon diodes are greater than Germanium diodes. Si is less expensive due to the greater abundance of element.
