The acceleration due to gravity at the north pole of Neptune is approximately 11.2 m/s2. Neptune has mass 1.02×1026 kg and radiu

s 2.46×104 km and rotates once around its axis in a time of about 16 h.
a)What is the gravitational force on a 4.60-kg object at the north pole of Neptune? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
b)What is the apparent weight of this same object at Neptune's equator? (Note that Neptune's "surface" is gaseous, not solid, so it is impossible to stand on it.) Express your answer with the appropriate units.

You stand on a bathroom scale in a moving elevator. what happens to the scale reading if the cable holding the elevator suddenly
Viefleur [7K]

A bathroom scales works due to gravity. Under normal conditions, a reading can be obtained when your body is pushing some force on the scale. However in this case, since you and the scale are both moving downwards, so your body is no longer pushing on the scale. Therefore the answer is:

<span>The reading will drop to 0 instantly</span>

A block of mass m is pushed up against a spring with spring constant k until the spring has been compressed a distance x from eq
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Spring is compressed to a distance of x from its equilibrium position

Work done by block on the spring is equal to change in elastic potential energy

i.e. Work done by block W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

therefore spring will also done an equal opposite amount of work on the block in the absence of external force

Thus work done by spring on the block W=-\frac{1}{2}kx^2

Thus option d is correct

The magnetic field around the head has been measured to be approximately 3.00×10−8 gauss . Although the currents that cause this
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

3.81972\times 10^{-7}\ A

Explanation:

B = Magnetic field = 3\times 10^{-8}\ G

d = Diameter of loop = 16 cm

r = Radius = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{16}{2}=8\ cm

i = Current

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}\ H/m

The magnetic field of a loop is given by

B=\frac{\mu_0i}{2r}\\\Rightarrow i=\frac{B2r}{\mu_0}\\\Rightarrow i=\frac{3\times 10^{-8}\times 10^{-4}\times 2\times 0.08}{4\pi\times 10^{-7}}\\\Rightarrow i=3.81972\times 10^{-7}\ A

The current needed to produce such a field at the center of the loop is 3.81972\times 10^{-7}\ A
