Chapter 14, Problem 51EAP

Section-1

To determine

Gravitational energy due to the merger of two black holes using Einstein’s formula from the given data.

Given:

The merger of two black holes of masses 29Msun and 36Msun resulted in a single black hole with a mass of 62Msun .

Energy released by the Sun during its entire main sequence =1.21×1043J

Section-2

To determine

Comparison of gravitational energy due to the merger of two black holes with energy released by a supernova explosion.

Given:

Energy released by a supernova explosion =2.64×1046J

Section-3

To determine

Comparison of gravitational energy due to the merger of two black holes with energy released by the Sun during its entire main sequence.

Given:

Energy released by the Sun during its entire main sequence. 1.21×1043J

Three charged particles are located at the corners of an equilateral triangle as shown in the figure below (let q = 2.20 µC, and L = 0.810 m). Calculate the total electric force on the 7.00-µC charge.   What is the magnitude , what is the direction?
(a) Calculate the number of electrons in a small, electrically neutral silver pin that has a mass of 9.0 g. Silver has 47 electrons per atom, and its molar mass is 107.87 g/mol.   (b) Imagine adding electrons to the pin until the negative charge has the very large value 2.00 mC.
