A 2.0 kg mass weighs 10 Newtons on planet X. what is the acceleration due to gravity on planet X? Show the work.

KengaRu [80]

Answer: The gravitational acceleration on planet X is 5 N/kg

On Earth (with the gravitational accelartion g_E) the mass of 2kg will correspond to

$F_E = m\cdot g_E = 2.0 \mbox{kg}\cdot 9.8 \frac{N}{kg} = 19.6 N$

On planet X we are told the same measure is only 10N. Since there is a proportional relationship between g and F, we can calculate g_X:

$\frac{F_E}{g_E}=\frac{F_X}{g_X} \implies\\g_x = \frac{g_E\cdot F_X}{F_E}=\frac{9.8 N/kg \cdot 10 N }{19.6N}=5 \frac{N}{kg}$

What are the formulas to calculate acceleration

IRINA_888 [86]

In middle school, the formula you'll use most often when you're
working with acceleration is . . .

Acceleration = (change in speed during some time) / (time for the change)

In this circuit the resistance R1 is 7 Ω and R2 is 3 Ω. If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resisto

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Series combination:

Equivalent resistance =10Ω

Parallel combination:

Equivalent resistance $=\frac{21}{10} \Omega$

Explanation:

Resistance: Resistance is the ratio of voltage to the current.

$R=\frac{V}{I}$

R = resistance

I = current

V= potential difference(voltage)

There are two types of resistance combinations.

series combination
parallel combination.

Series combination: If the ending point of one resistance is connected to the starting point of other resistance that combination is known as series combination.

If R₁,R₂ and R₃ are connected in series combination.

Then equivalent resistance = R₁+R₂+R₃

Parallel combination: If the ending point and the starting point of the all resistance are the same points that combination is known as parallel combination.

If R₁,R₂ and R₃ are connected in parallel combination.

Then equivalent resistance $\frac{1}{R}= \frac{1}{R_1}+ \frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}$

Here R₁=7Ω and R₂=3Ω

If R₁ and R₂ connected in series combination

Then equivalent resistance = (7+3) Ω

=10Ω

If R₁ and R₂ connected in parallel combination

Then equivalent resistance $=\frac{1}{(\frac{1}{7} +\frac{1}{3})} \Omega$

$=\frac{21}{10} \Omega$

A 0.85 N force exists between a 7.1 * 10 ^ - 6 * C charge 5.4 m away. What is the magnitude of the second charge ? Please show w

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force between charge is given by the following expression

F = k Q₁ Q₂ / R² , k = 9 x 10⁹ , Q₁ and Q₂ are charges , R is distance between charges .

Putting the given values ,

.85 = 9 x 10⁹ x 7.1 x 10⁻⁶ x Q₂ / 5.4²

Q₂ = .85 x 5.4² / (9 x 10⁹ x 7.1 x 10⁻⁶ )

= .38788 x 10⁻³ C .

= 387.88 x 10⁻⁶ C .
