<u>Question</u> :-

  • Two spheres of mass 2 kg and 3 kg respectively are situated so that the gravitational force between them is \bf 2.5 \times 10^{-8 }NCalculate the distance between them.

<u>We are given </u>:-

  • Mass of first sphere, m = 2 kg
  • Mass of second sphere, M= 3 kg
  • Gravitational force ,F = \bf 2.5 \times  10^{-8} N
  • G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

We are asked to find distance between them.

  • We know that according to gravitational law, we have force of attraction between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of masses of bodies and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.Which is given by –

\qquad \pink{\twoheadrightarrow\sf F = \dfrac{GmM}{r^2}}

<u>Substituting values, we get</u> –

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf  2.5\times 10^{-8} = \dfrac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times2\times3}{r^2}

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf  2.5\times 10^{-8} = \dfrac{4.002\times10^{-8}}{r^2}

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf  \dfrac {r^2}{4.002\times10^{-10}}=\dfrac{1}{2.5\times10^{-8}}

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf   r^2 = \dfrac{4.002\times10^{-10}}{2.5\times10^{-8}}

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf   r^2 = 1.6 \times 10^{-10}\times 10^{8}

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf   r^2 = 1.6 \times 10^{-10+8}

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf   r^2= 1.6\times10^{-2}

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf   r=\sqrt{1.6\times10^{-2}}

\qquad \twoheadrightarrow\sf   r=1.265\times10^{-1} \: m

\qquad \pink{\twoheadrightarrow\bf  r = 12.65 \:cm}

  • Henceforth,distance between them will be 12.65 cm.

A charge of 25 nC is uniformly distributed along a straight rod of length 3.0 m that is bent into a circular arc with a radius o
Greeley [361]

Answer:

E = 31.329 N/C.

Explanation:

The differential electric field dE at the center of curvature of the arc is

dE = k\dfrac{dQ}{r^2}cos(\theta ) <em>(we have a cosine because vertical components cancel, leaving only horizontal cosine components of E. )</em>

where r is the radius of curvature.

Now

dQ = \lambda rd\theta,

where \lambda is the charge per unit length, and it has the value

\lambda = \dfrac{25*10^{-9}C}{3.0m} = 8.3*10^{-9}C/m.

Thus, the electric field at the center of the curvature of the arc is:

E = \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} k\dfrac{\lambda rd\theta  }{r^2} cos(\theta)

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2}cos(\theta) d\theta.

Now, we find \theta_1 and \theta_2. To do this we ask ourselves what fraction is the arc length  3.0 of the circumference of the circle:

fraction = \dfrac{3.0m}{2\pi (2.3m)}  = 0.2076

and this is  

0.2076*2\pi =1.304 radians.

Therefore,

E = \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{\theta_1}^{\theta_2} cos(\theta)d\theta= \dfrac{\lambda k}{r} \int_{0}^{1.304}cos(\theta) d\theta.

evaluating the integral, and putting in the numerical values  we get:

E = \dfrac{8.3*10^{-9} *9*10^9}{2.3} *(sin(1.304)-sin(0))\\

\boxed{ E = 31.329N/C.}

When a gun is fired at the shooting range, the gun recoils (moves backward). Explain this using the law of conservation of momen
12345 [234]
The total momentum is unchanged according to the law of conservation of momentum. When the gun is fired, the bullet gains a high velocity forward (positive velocity), and that velocity multiplied by its mass is the momentum the bullet gains. Therefore, the gun must gain a momentum backwards to cancel out that momentum forward, so the gun recoils back with a negative velocity.

an object weighs 98 n on earth. How much does it weigh on planet x where the acceleration due to gravity in 6 m/s^2
Degger [83]
60 N because 98N=mg (here g= 9.8 on earth) thus mass can be calculated which is 98/9.8 = 10kg Now,new weight with g = 6m/s^2 =m×g' (here g' is new acceleration of the new planet) = 10×6=60N
