-- From the point of view of an observer on Earth, the moon's orbit is an ellipse
with the Earth's center at one focus.

-- From the point of view of an observer on the sun, or on any other planet,
the moon's orbit is an ellipse with the sun at one focus, and perturbed by being
near the Earth.

The Earth.

Orbits are elliptical in shape with the body being orbited at one focus. So the Sun is at one focus of the Earth's orbit around it.

A straight wire 20 cm long, carrying a current of 4 A, is in a uniform magnetic field of 0.6 T. What is the force on the wire wh
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Magnetic force, F = 0.24 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current flowing in the wire, I = 4 A

Length of the wire, L = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Magnetic field, B = 0.6 T

Angle between force and the magnetic field, θ = 30°. The magnetic force is given by :

F=ILB\ sin\theta

F=4\ A\times 0.2\ m\times 0.6\ T\ sin(30)

F = 0.24 N

So, the force on the wire at an angle of 30° with respect to the field is 0.24 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A certain rigid aluminum container contains a liquid at a gauge pressure of P0 = 2.02 × 105 Pa at sea level where the atmospheri
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

dz=19217687.07\ m

Explanation:

Given:

  • initial gauge pressure in the container, P_0=2.02\times 10^{5}\ Pa
  • atmospheric pressure at sea level, P_a=1.01\times 10^5\ Pa
  • initial volume, V_0=4.4\times 10^{-4}\ m^3
  • maximum pressure difference bearable by the container, dP_{max}=2.26\times 10^{5}\ Pa
  • density of the air, \rho_a=1.2\ kg.m^{-3}
  • density of sea water, \rho_s=1.2\ kg.m^{-3}

<u>The relation between the change in pressure with height is given as:</u>

\frac{dP_{max}}{dz} =\rho_a.g_n

where:

dz = height in the atmosphere

g_n= standard value of gravity

<em>Now putting the respective values:</em>

\frac{2.26\times 10^{5}}{dz} =1.2\times 9.8

dz=19217.687\ km

dz=19217687.07\ m

Is the maximum height above the ground that the container can be lifted before bursting. (<em>Since the density of air and the density of sea water are assumed to be constant.</em>)

Bianca is standing at x =600m. Firecracker 1, at the origin, and firecracker 2, at x =900m, explode simultaneously. The flash fr
agasfer [191]

Answer:3 \mu s

Explanation:

Given

Bianca is at x=600 m

i.e. distance between origin and Bianca is 600 m

time taken to reach Bianca eyes is

t=\frac{600}{speed\ of\ light}

t=\frac{600}{3\times 10^8}

t=2\times 10^{-6} s

t=2 \mu s

i.e. Cracker exploded at t=2\mu s because it is observed at t=4\mu s

Time taken by second cracker flash to reach Bianca eyes

t_2=\frac{300}{3\times 10^8}

t_2=10^{-6}

t_2=1 \mu s

Therefore it will be observed at t=3 \mu s

On a horizontal frictionless surface a mass M is attached to two light elastic strings both having length l and both made of the
EastWind [94]

Answer:

ω = √(2T / (mL))

Explanation:

(a) Draw a free body diagram of the mass.  There are two tension forces, one pulling down and left, the other pulling down and right.

The x-components of the tension forces cancel each other out, so the net force is in the y direction:

∑F = -2T sin θ, where θ is the angle from the horizontal.

For small angles, sin θ ≈ tan θ.

∑F = -2T tan θ

∑F = -2T (Δy / L)

(b) For a spring, the restoring force is F = -kx, and the frequency is ω = √(k/m).  (This is derived by solving a second order differential equation.)

In this case, k = 2T/L, so the frequency is:

ω = √((2T/L) / m)

ω = √(2T / (mL))
