What is the difference between the law of gravity and the theory of gravity?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In the language of science, a theory is an explanation of why and how things happen. For gravity, we use Einstein's Theory of General Relativity to explain why things fall. ...While laws rarely change, theories change frequently as new evidence is discoevered.

How much work (MJ) must a car produce to drive 125 miles if an average force of 306 N must be maintained to overcome friction?

Answers

Answer:

The right solution is "61.557 MJ". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Force,

F = 306 N

Drive,

D = 125 miles,

i.e.,

  = 201168

meters

As we know,

The work done will be:

On substituting the given values, we get

= [tex]306\times 201168[/tex]

= [tex]61557408 \ J[/tex]

On converting it in "MJ", we get

= [tex]61.557\times 10^6 \ J[/tex]

= [tex]61.557 \ MJ[/tex]

A trampoline spring has a force constant k = 800 N/m and is stretched exactly 17.5cm. What is the energy required to do this?

Answers

Answer:

the energy required for the extension is 12.25 J

Explanation:

Given;

force constant of trampoline spring, k = 800 N/m

extension of trampoline spring, x = 17.5 cm = 0.175 m

The energy required for the extension is calculated as;

E = ¹/₂kx²

E = 0.5 x 800 x 0.175²

E = 12.25 J

Therefore, the energy required for the extension is 12.25 J

For two vectors A and B.A+B =A-B, if and only if??​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\vec{A} + \vec{B} = \vec{A} - \vec{B}[/tex] if and only if [tex]\vec{B}[/tex] is a zero vector.

Explanation:

An equation is true if and only if adding the same value to both sides of the equation (the value needs to be compatible) gives an equation that is also true.

Start with the [tex]\vec{A} + \vec{B} = \vec{A} - \vec{B}[/tex].

This equation is true if and only if [tex]\left(\vec{A} + \vec{B}\right) + \vec{B} = \left(\vec{A} - \vec{B}\right) + \vec{B}[/tex] ([tex]\vec{B}[/tex] is added to both sides of the original equation.)

Vector addition and subtraction are associative. Therefore, [tex]\left(\vec{A} + \vec{B}\right) + \vec{B} = \left(\vec{A} - \vec{B}\right) + \vec{B}[/tex] if and only if [tex]\vec{A} + \left(\vec{B} + \vec{B}\right) = \vec{A} + \left(- \vec{B} + \vec{B}\right)[/tex], which is equivalent to [tex]\vec{A} + 2\, \vec{B} = \vec{A}[/tex].

[tex]\vec{A} + 2\, \vec{B} = \vec{A}[/tex] if and only if [tex]\left(-\vec{A}\right) + \vec{A} + 2\, \vec{B} = \left(-\vec{A}\right) + \vec{A}[/tex] ([tex]\left(-\vec{A}\right)[/tex]is added to both sides of this equation,) which is equivalent to [tex]2\, \vec{B} = \vec{0}[/tex].

[tex]2\, \vec{B} = \vec{0}[/tex] if and only [tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{2} \cdot \left(2\, \vec{B}\right) = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \vec{0}[/tex], which is equivalent to [tex]\vec{B} = \vec{0}[/tex]. That is: [tex]\vec{B}[/tex] is the zero vector.

In other words:

[tex]\begin{aligned}& \vec{A} + \vec{B} = \vec{A} - \vec{B}\\ &\iff \left( \vec{A} + \vec{B}\right) + \vec{B} = \left(\vec{A} - \vec{B}\right) + \vec{B} \\ &\iff \vec{A} + \left(\vec{B} + \vec{B}\right) = \vec{A} + \left(- \vec{B} + \vec{B}\right) \\ & \iff \vec{A} + 2\, \vec{B} = \vec{A} \\ & \iff \left(-\vec{A}\right) + \vec{A} + 2\, \vec{B} = \left(-\vec{A}\right) + \vec{A} \\ &\iff 2\, \vec{B} = \vec{0} \\ &\iff \frac{1}{2} \cdot 2\,\vec{B} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \vec{0} \\ &\iff \vec{B} = \vec{0}\end{aligned}[/tex].

Hence, [tex]\vec{A} + \vec{B} = \vec{A} - \vec{B}[/tex] if and only if [tex]\vec{B}[/tex] is the zero vector.

An object has a kinetic energy of 50 J and a velocity of 5 m/s, what is the mass of the object?

Answers

Answer:

Mass, M = 4 kilograms.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Kinetic energy = 50 J

Velocity = 5 m/s

To find the mass of the object;

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}[/tex]

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Making mass the subject formula;

[tex] M = \frac{2K.E}{V^{2}}[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] M = \frac{2*50}{5^{2}}[/tex]

[tex] M = \frac{100}{25}[/tex]

Mass, M = 4 kg

the speed of an electric locomotive is 90kmh .express this speed in m/s with method​

Answers

Answer:

24.3 m/s

Explanation:

1 kmh = 0.27 m/s, that makes a conversion ratio of 0.27/1kmh

[tex]\frac{90 kmh}{1}[/tex] x [tex]\frac{0.27 m/s}{1 kmh}[/tex]

The "kmh" n the top and bottom cancel out. And  then you just multiply the top 90 x 0.27 and the bottom 1 x 1 to get

[tex]\frac{24.3 m/s}{1}[/tex]

and since its over 1 its just 24.3 m/s

What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?

Answers

Answer:

Option D. 5.45 Ω

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Resistance 1 (R₁) = 10 Ω

Resistance 2 (R₂) = 20 Ω

Resistance 3 (R₃) = 30 Ω

Voltage (V) = 120 V

Equivalent resistance (R) =?

The equivalent resistance can be obtained as follow:

1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃

1/R = 1/10 + 1/20 + 1/30

Find the least common multiple (lcm) of 10, 20 and 30. The result is 60

Divide 60 by each of the denominators and multiply by their numerators respectively. We have:

1/R = (6 + 3 + 2)/60

1/R = 11/60

Invert

R = 60/11

R = 5.45 Ω

Thus, the equivalent resistance in the circuit is 5.45 Ω

which type of thermometer is used to measure the temperature of a very hot object and why?​

Answers

Answer:

Pyrometer, device for measuring relatively high temperatures, such as are encountered in furnaces. Most pyrometers work by measuring radiation from the body whose temperature is to be measured. Radiation devices have the advantage of not having to touch the material being measured.

Explanation:

What happens to the temperature of an air mass as it rises, and why? What happens to the temperature of an air mass as it rises, and why? Temperature increases because fewer air molecules allow the air mass to expand. Temperature decreases because increasing numbers of air molecules allow the mass to expand. Temperature increases because more air molecules force the air mass to contract. Temperature decreases because fewer air molecules allow the air mass to expand. Temperature remains the same because fewer air molecules allow the air mass to expand.

Answers

Answer:

Temperature decreases because fewer air molecules allow the air mass to expand.

Explanation:

Temperature of air mass decreases as it rises . It is so because at upper strata

of atmosphere , air is sparse and therefore air molecules there is relatively less . It results in lower pressure around air mass going up . This results in expansion of gas . Molecules have to do work against mutual attractive force for expansion so their energy becomes less . This cools down the air.

What are 4 physical properties for the bear

Answers

Answer:

A bear normally has a short, thick neck, a rounded head, a pointed muzzle, short ears, and small eyes. Some species have round faces. Bears have poor eyesight, and most have only fair hearing.

Explanation:

Modern Bears are characterized with large body and stocky legs, a long snout, shaggy hair, plantigrade paws with five non-retractile claws and a short tail.

Grizzly bears (Ursus arctos horribilis) have concave faces, a distinctive hump on their shoulders, and long claws about two to four inches long. Both the hump and the claws are traits associated with a grizzly bear's exceptional digging ability. Grizzlies are often dark brown, but can vary from blonde to nearly black.

The brown bear has a slight hump above its shoulder, round ears, a long snout and big paws with long, curved claws that it uses for digging. Unlike the black bear, it can't climb trees. It can weigh between 350-1,500 pounds. When standing on its hind legs it can be up to 5 feet tall.

What are Planets?

A planet is an astronomical object that orbits a star or stellar remnant that is large enough to be rounded by gravity, but not so large as to trigger thermonuclear fusion, and that is free of planetesimals in its locality

Planets are generally divided into two main types: large, low-density gas giants and smaller, rocky terrestrials.

In order of increasing distance from the Sun, they are the four terrestrials, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, then the four gas giants, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune

Given data ,

Let the first planet be represented as A

Let the second planet be represented as B

Now , the planets A and B have similar average temperature

where , the planets can have negative as well has very high temperatures

Now , when A = Mercury and B = Venus

Venus has 864 degrees Fahrenheit (462 degrees Celsius)

And , Mercury has 800 degrees Fahrenheit (430 degrees Celsius)

So , both Venus and Mercury has similar temperatures

Now , when A = Neptune and B = Uranus

Neptune has minus 353 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 214 degrees Celsius)

Uranus has minus 374 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 224 degrees Celsius)

So , both Neptune and Uranus has similar temperatures

Hence , the planets are Venus and Mercury

h=v/f.......(1)

longer wavelength

h=330/20,h=16.5m

shorter wavelength

h=330/20000,h=1.65x10-²m

The lesser frequency was used for finding the longer wavelength since wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency,

thus an increase in frequency brings a decrease in wavelength.

and shorter wavelengths are more high and intense
