Answer:

g'=\frac{g__R}{4}

Explanation:

Given:

  • gravitational field strength of moon at a distance R from its center, g__R
  • Distance of the satellite from the center of the moon, h=2R

<u>Now as we know that the value of gravity of any heavenly body is at height h is given as:</u>

g'=g__{R}} \times \frac{R^2}{(2R)^2}

g'=\frac{g__R}{4}

∴The gravitational field strength will become one-fourth of what it is at the surface of the moon.

The length of a wire 2.00 m is measured as 2.02m. What is the percentage error in the measurement?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

1%

Explanation:

Percent error can be found by dividing the absolute error (difference between measure and actual value) by the actual value, then multiplying by 100.

Percent Error=\frac{V_{measured}- V_{true} } {V_{true}} *100

The measured value is 2.02 meters and the actual value is 2.00 meters.

V_{measured}=2.02\\\\V_{true}=2.00

Percent Error=\frac{2.02-2.00}{2.00} *100

First, evaluate the fraction. Subtract 2.00 from 2.02

Percent Error=\frac{0.02}{2.00}*100

Next, divide 0.02 by 2.00

PercentError=0.01 *100

Finally, multiply 0.01 and 100.

Percent  Error=1\\Percent  Error= 1 \%

The percent error is 1%.

Some plants disperse their seeds when the fruit splits and contracts, propelling the seeds through the air. The trajectory of th
Anton [14]

Answer:

Option B, 93 cm

Explanation:

An diagram of the seed's motion is attached to this solution.

This is very close to a projectile motion question. And the quantity to be calculated, how far along the grant a seed released would travel is called the Range.

And this would be obtained from the equations of motion,

First of, the height of the plant is related to some quantities of the motion with this relation.

H = u(y) t + 0.5g(t^2)

U(y) = initial vertical component of velocity = 0 m/s, H = height at which motion began, = 20cm = 0.2 m

That means t = √(2H/g)

The horizontal distance covered, R,

R = u(x) t + 0.5g(t^2) = u(x) t (the second part of the equation goes to zero as the vertical component of the acceleration of this motion is 0)

(substituting the t = √(2H/g) derived from above

R = u(x) √(2H/g)

Where u(x) = the initial horizontal component of the bomb's velocity = maximum initial speed, that is, 4.6 m/s, H = vertical height at which the seed was released = 20 cm = 0.2 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s2

R = 4.6 √(2×0.2/9.8) = 0.929 m = 0.93 m = 93 cm. Option B.

a 250 mH coil of negligible resistance is connected to an AC circuit in which as effective current of 5 mA is flowing. if the fr
mash [69]

Answer:

the inductive reactance of the coil is 1335.35 Ω

Explanation:

Given;

inductance of the coil, L = 250 mH = 0.25 H

effective current through the coil, I = 5 mA

frequency of the coil, f = 850 Hz

The inductive reactance of the coil is calculated as;

X_l = \omega L = 2\pi f L\\\\X_l = 2\pi \times 850 \times 0.25\\\\X_l = 1335.35 \ ohms

Therefore, the inductive reactance of the coil is 1335.35 Ω

A 16-Ω loudspeaker, an 8.0-Ω loudspeaker, and a 4.0-Ω loudspeaker are connected in parallel across the terminals of an amplifier
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

2.286 ohm

Explanation:

R1 = 16 ohm

R2 = 8 ohm

R3 = 4 ohm

They all are connected in parallel combination

Let the equivalent resistance is R.

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

1/R = 1/16 + 1/8 + 1/4

1/R = (1 + 2 + 4) / 16

1/R = 7 / 16

R = 16/7 = 2.286 ohm

The coefficient of friction between the 2-lb block and the surface is μ=0.2. The block has an initial speed of Vβ =6 ft/s and is
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

x = 0.0685 m

Explanation:

In this exercise we can use the relationship between work and energy conservation

            W = ΔEm

Where the work is

             W = F x

The energy can be found in two points

Initial. Just when the block with its spring spring touches the other spring

           Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final. When the system is at rest

            Em_{f} = K_{e1}b +K_{e2} = ½ k₁ x² + ½ k₂ x²

We can find strength with Newton's second law

            ∑ F = F - fr

Axis y

           N- W = 0

           N = W

The friction force has the equation

          fr = μ N

          fr = μ W

  The job

         W = (F – μ W) x

We substitute in the equation

            (F - μ W) x = ½ m v² - (½ k₁ x² + ½ k₂ x²)

           ½ x² (k₁ + k₂) + (F - μ W) x - ½ m v² = 0

We substitute values ​​and solve

           ½ x² (20 + 40) + (15 -0.2 2) x - ½ (2/32) 6² = 0

         x² 30 + 14.4 x - 1,125 = 0

        x² + 0.48 x - 0.0375 = 0

           

We solve the second degree equation

        x = [-0.48 ±√(0.48 2 + 4 0.0375)] / 2

        x = [-0.48 ± 0.617] / 2

        x₁ = 0.0685 m

        x₂ = -0.549 m

The first result results from compression of the spring and the second torque elongation.

The result of the problem is x = 0.0685 m
