Suppose you are talking by interplanetary telephone to your friend, who lives on the Moon. He tells you that he has just won a n

ewton of gold in a contest. Excitedly, you tell him that you entered the Earth version of the same contest and also won a newton of gold! Who is richer?

Answer:

The friend on moon will be richer.

Explanation:

We must calculate the mass of gold won by each person, to tell who is richer. For that purpose we will use the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass of gold

W = weight of gold

g = acceleration due to gravity on that planet

<u>FOR FRIEND ON MOON</u>:

W = 1 N

g = 1.625 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (1 N)/(1.625 m/s²)

m(moon) = 0.6 kg

<u>FOR ME ON EARTH</u>:

W = 1 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (1 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

m(earth) = 0.1 kg

Since, the mass of gold on moon is greater than the mass of moon on earth.

<u>Therefore, the friend on moon will be richer.</u>

What is the momentum of a 533 kg blimp moving east at +75 m/s
mylen [45]

Answer:

39975kgm/s due east

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the blimp  = 533kg

Velocity  = +75m/s due east

Unknown:

Momentum of the body  = ?

Solution:

The momentum of a body is the amount of motion it posses.

 Momentum is the product of mass and velocity;

 

  Momentum = mass x velocity

  Insert the parameters and solve;

    Momentum  = 533 x 75  = 39975kgm/s

The momentum of the body is 39975kgm/s due east

How many turns should a 10-cm long ideal solenoid have if it is to generate a 1.5-mT magnetic field when 1.0 A of current runs t
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

N=119.34 turns

Explanation:

The magnetic field of a solenoid is calculated using the formula:

B= µo*\frac{I*N}{L} Equation 1

Where:

B: magnetic field in Teslas (T)

µo: free space permeability in T*m/A

I= Intensity of the current flowing through the conductor in ampere (A)

N= number of turns

L= solenoid length in meters (m)

Data of the problem:

L=10cm=10*10^{-2}, B= 1.5mT=1.5*10^{-3} T  ,I=1A  

µo=4\pi *10^{-7} \frac{T*m}{A}

We cleared N of the equation (1):

N=B*L/ µo*I

N= (1.5*10^{-3} *10*10^{-2} )/(4\pi *10^{-7} *1

N=0.1193*10^{3}

Answer

N=119.34 turns

A sphere of radius 5.00 cm carries charge 3.00 nC. Calculate the electric-field magnitude at a distance 4.00 cm from the center
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a)   E = 8.63 10³ N /C,  E = 7.49 10³ N/C

b)   E= 0 N/C,  E = 7.49 10³ N/C  

Explanation:

a)  For this exercise we can use Gauss's law

         Ф = ∫ E. dA = q_{int} /ε₀

We must take a Gaussian surface in a spherical shape. In this way the line of the electric field and the radi of the sphere are parallel by which the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

The area of ​​a sphere is

        A = 4π r²

 

if we use the concept of density

        ρ = q_{int} / V

        q_{int} = ρ V

the volume of the sphere is

      V = 4/3 π r³

         

we substitute

         E 4π r² = ρ (4/3 π r³) /ε₀

         E = ρ r / 3ε₀

the density is

         ρ = Q / V

         V = 4/3 π a³

         E = Q 3 / (4π a³) r / 3ε₀

         k = 1 / 4π ε₀

         E = k Q r / a³

 

let's calculate

for r = 4.00cm = 0.04m

        E = 8.99 10⁹ 3.00 10⁻⁹ 0.04 / 0.05³

        E = 8.63 10³ N / c

for r = 6.00 cm

in this case the gaussine surface is outside the sphere, so all the charge is inside

         E (4π r²) = Q /ε₀

         E = k q / r²

let's calculate

         E = 8.99 10⁹ 3 10⁻⁹ / 0.06²

          E = 7.49 10³ N/C

b) We repeat in calculation for a conducting sphere.

For r = 4 cm

In this case, all the charge eta on the surface of the sphere, due to the mutual repulsion between the mobile charges, so since there is no charge inside the Gaussian surface, therefore the field is zero.

         E = 0

In the case of r = 0.06 m, in this case, all the load is inside the Gaussian surface, therefore the field is

        E = k q / r²

      E = 7.49 10³ N / C
