Answer: 3. F1 = F2
Explanation:
According to <u>Newton's law of Gravitation</u>, the force
exerted <u>between two bodies</u> or objects of masses
and
and separated by a distance
is equal to the product of their masses divided by the square of the distance:
(1)
Where
is the gravitational constant
Now, in the especific case of the Earth and the satellite, where the Earth has a mass
and satellite a mass
, being both separated a distance
, the force exerted by the Earth on the satellite is:
(2)
And the force exerted by the satellite on the Earth is:
(3)
As we can see equations (2) and (3) are equal, hence the magnitude of the gravitational force is the same for both:

Answer:
0.00091
Explanation:
(9x10^9) (2.6x10^-6) (1.4x10^-6) / 36
(9,000,000,000) (0.0000026) (0.0000014) /36
|
23,400(0.0000014) /36
|
0.03276 /36
|
0.00091
Answer:
(a) The current should be in opposite direction
(b) The current needed is 39.8 A
Explanation:
Part (a)
Based, on right hand rule, the current should be in opposite direction
Part (b)
given;
strength of magnetic field, B = 370 µT
distance between the two parallel wires, d = 8.6 cm

At the center, the magnetic field strength is twice

R = d/2 = 8.6/2 = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m

Therefore, current needed is 39.8 A
