Answer:

d = 3.54 x 10⁴ Km

Explanation:

Given,

The distance between the two objects, r = 2.5 x 10⁴  Km

The gravitational force between them, F = 580 N

The gravitational force between the two objects is given by the formula

                                         F = GMm/r² newton

When the gravitational force becomes half, then the distance between them becomes

Let us multiply the above equation by 1/2 on both sides

                                        ( 1/2) F = (1/2) GMm/r²

                                                   =  GMm/2r²

                                                   =  GMm/(√2r)²

Therefore, the distance becomes √2d, when the gravitational force between them becomes half

                                           d = √2r = √2 x 2.5 x 10⁴  Km

                                               = 3.54 x 10⁴  Km

Hence, the two objects should be kept at a distance, d = 3.54 x 10⁴  Km so that the gravitational force becomes half.

Answer:

xcritical = d− m1 /m2 ( L /2−d)

Explanation: the precursor to this question will had been this

the precursor to the question can be found online.

ff the mass of the block is too large and the block is too close to the left end of the bar (near string B) then the horizontal bar may become unstable (i.e., the bar may no longer remain horizontal). What is the smallest possible value of x such that the bar remains stable (call it xcritical)

. from the principle of moments which states that sum of clockwise moments must be equal to the sum of anticlockwise moments. aslo sum of upward forces is equal to sum of downward forces

smallest possible value of x such that the bar remains stable (call it xcritical)

∑τA = 0 = m2g(d− xcritical)− m1g( −d)

xcritical = d− m1 /m2 ( L /2−d)

A flat metal washer is heated. As the washer's temperature increases, what happens to the hole in the center? A flat metal washe
jenyasd209 [6]

answer;

The hole in the center of the washer will expand

explanation;

<em>A flat metal washer is heated. As the washer's temperature increases, what happens to the hole in the center? A flat metal washer is heated. As the washer's temperature increases, what happens to the hole in the center? The hole in the center will remain the same size. Changes in the hole cannot be determined without know the composition of the metal. The hole in the center of the washer will expand. The hole in the center of the washer will contract.</em>

this is an example of area expansivity.

coefficient of area expansivity is change in area per area per degree rise in temperature

a=dA/(A*dt)

as the temperature rises , there will be volumetric and area expansivity on the body. volume also increases because of the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecule is now getting apart.

The gravitational force between two asteroids is 6.2 × 108 n. asteroid y has three times the mass of asteroid z. if the distance
SOVA2 [1]
Let m =  mass of asteroid y.
Because asteroid y has three times the mass of asteroid z, the mass of asteroid z is m/3.

Given:
F = 6.2x10⁸ N
d = 2100 km = 2.1x10⁶ m
Note that
G = 6.67408x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²)

The gravitational force between the asteroids is
F = (G*m*(m/3))/d² = (Gm²)/(3d²)
or
m² = (3Fd²)/G
     = [(3*(6.2x10⁸ N)*(2.1x10⁶ m)²]/(6.67408x10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²))
    = 1.229x10³² kg²
m = 1.1086x10¹⁶ kg = 1.1x10¹⁶ kg (approx)

Answer: 1.1x10¹⁶ kg

The wavelength of some red light is 700.5 nm. what is the frequency of this red light?
Alborosie
The frequency of the red light is 428 terahertz. To get the value of the red light's frequency, use the formula F = velocity/wavelength. The velocity of light is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. For easier computation, convert 700.5 nanometers to meter. 1 nanometer is equal to 1 x 10^-9 meters. 700.5 nanometers is equal to 7.005 x 10^-7 meters. Divide the velocity 3.00 x 10^8m/s by wavelength 7.005 x 10^-7 meters. The result will be 4.28 x 10^14 Hertz or 428 terahertz.
