Answer:

The change in gravitational potential energy is 45 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 3 kg

Distance = 1.5 m

Gravitational field strength = 10 N/kg

We need to calculate the change in gravitational potential energy

Using formula of  gravitational potential energy

Change\ in\ gravitational\ potential\ energy =gravitational\ field\ strength\times mass\times distance

Put the value into the formula

Change\ in\ gravitational\ potential\ energy =10\times3\times1.5

Change\ in\ gravitational\ potential\ energy =45\ J

Hence, The change in gravitational potential energy is 45 J.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

0.0002°, 0.1691°, 0.338°

Explanation:

Difference between the two line = 5.97 * 10-⁸m

d = 1 / N

N = 5.0 * 10³

d = 2.0 * 10⁴m

nL = Nsin¤

For first order

588.995 * 10-⁹ = 2.0 * 10-⁴ sin ¤

Sin¤ = 2.944*10-³

¤ = sin-¹ 0.002944

¤ = 0.1687°

First order ¤ =

Sin-¹(589.592*-⁹ / 2.0 * 10-⁴)

Sin-¹ (0.002947) = 0.1689°

Angular separation = 0.1689 - 0.1687 = 0.0002°

Second order ¤ = sin-¹ [2 (589.59*10-⁹ / 2.0*10-⁴)] = sin-¹ (0.005895)

Second order ¤ = 0.3378°

Angular difference = 0.3378° - 0.1687° = 0.1691°

Third order ¤ = sin-¹ [3(589.59*10-⁹ /2.0*10-⁴] = 0.5067°

Angular difference = 0.5067° - 0.1687° = 0.338°
