Answer:

8.0 x 10^-5 km

Explanation:

T1 = 20 days, r1 = 2.0 x 10^-5 km

T2 = 160 days, find r2.

By Kepler's 3-rd law, T^2 is proportional to r^3, so

T1^2/r1^3 = T2^2/r2^3

so r2 = r1*(T2/T1)^(2/3) = 2.0 x 10^-5 * (160/20)^(2/3) = 8.0 x 10^-5 km

31) The head of each arrow represents the direction of each force

32) The length of each arrow represents the magnitude of each force

33) The net  force on the 1-kg object is to the left

34) To balance the forces on the object, we must add a force acting to the right

35) The acceleration of the 1-kg object is twice the acceleration of the 2-kg object

36) The magnitude of the acceleration increases, and the direction changes

Explanation:

31-32)

A free-body diagram is a diagram representing the forces acting on a body.

In a free-body diagram, each force is represented with an arrow, where:

  • The length of the arrow is proportional to the magnitude of the force
  • The direction of the arrow represents the direction of the force

Therefore:

- The head of each arrow represents the direction of each force

- The length of each arrow represents the magnitude of each force

33)

In the free-body diagram of the 1-kg object, we observe that the arrow on the right is longer than the arrow on the left. This means that the force acting from the right (and therefore, acting TO the left) is stronger than the force acting from the left (which is therefore acting TO the right).

Therefore, the net force acting on the 1-kg object is to the left, since the force acting to the left is stronger.

34)

In order to balance the forces acting on the 1-kg, we should apply an additional force such that the net force acting on the object is zero.

In part 33), we said that the net force acting on the 1-kg object is to the left. Therefore, in order to produce a net force of zero, we must add another force acting to the right, in order to balance the current net force pointing to the left.

35)

First of all, by looking at the two free-body diagrams, we notice that the magnitudes of the forces acting on the 1-kg and 2-kg objects are the same. This means that the net force acting on the two objects is the same.

Now we can apply Newton's second law of motion to the two cases; the law states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:

\sum F = ma

where \sum F is the net force, m is the mass, a is the acceleration

For the object of 1-kg, we have:

\sum F = m_1 a_1

where m_1 = 1 kg

For the object of 2-kg, we have:

\sum F = m_2 a_2

where m_2 = 2 kg

We said that the net force on the two objects is the same, so we can combine the two equations:

m_1 a_1 = m_2 a_2\\(1 kg)a_1 = (2 kg)a_2\\\rightarrow a_1 = 2a_2

Therefore, the acceleration of the 1-kg object is twice the acceleration of the 2-kg object.

36)

If an upward force is applied to the 1-kg object, the acceleration will increase in magnitude and it will change in direction.

In fact, let's call F_x the total net force acting in the horizontal direction on the 1-kg object. Let's call F_y the upward additional force applied. This means that now the object will have two components of the acceleration:

a_x, horizontally (to the left)

a_y, vertically (upward)

So, the magnitude of the net acceleration will be

a=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2}

which is larger than the original acceleration (a_x). Also, since there is a component of the acceleration in the vertical direction, the final direction of the acceleration a will be between left and upward.

Electrons.
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1)  Potassium's number of protons is 19

    Symbol is K

    Mass number is 39.1 u

2) Number 79 on periodic table is Gold

   Symbol is Au,

   Mass number is 196.97

3) Metals and non-metals

4)  Gases

    Iodine

    Bromine    

    Fluorine, chlorine

Explanation:

The modern periodic table is the arrangement of atoms in an increasing atomic number.

The Russian chemist, Dmitri Mendeleev arraigned the elements as they appear in the modern periodic table.

It has 18 groups and 7 periods.

These groups belong to the specific classification of the elements.

The periods referred to as the horizontal rows on the periodic table have given much importance than the vertical columns for the actinides and lanthanides.

It is easy to identify the characteristics of the elements present in the modern periodic table.

A charge of 3 nC is uniformly distributed around a ring of radius 10 cm that has its center at the origin and its axis along the
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

W=2.592*10^{-7} J

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

Charge 3 nC

Radius of ring is 10 cm

A point charge 1 nC

Distance of point charge is 2.5 m

We know that voltage is calculated as

V(0) =\frac{KQ}{r}

      =\frac{(9*10^{-9})(3*10^{-9})}{0.1}

V = 270 V

At x = 2.5m

r = \sqrt{(0.1^2+2.5^2)}

r = 1.581 m

V(2) = \frac{(9*10^9)(3*10^{-9})}{1.581}

V(2) = 10.801 V

Work done is calculated as

W= q(dV)

W = (1*10^{-9})(270 - 10.80)

W=2.592*10^{-7} J
