(4A) The mass of Earth is 5.972 * 10^24 kg, and the radius of Earth is 6,371 km.
The mass of the moon is 7.348 * 10^22 kg, and the radius of the moon is 1,737
km. The centers of the Earth and the moon are separated by 384,400 km. If an
object is traveling from Earth to the moon along the line connecting the center
of Earth and the center of the moon, at what distance from the center of Earth
will the net force on the object due to the gravitational attractions of Earth and
the moon be zero?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x₁ = 345100 km

Explanation:

The direction of the attraction forces between the earth and the object, and between the moon and the object, are in opposite direction and  (along the straight line between the centers of earth and moon) and as gravity is always attractive, the net force will become zero when both forces are equal. According to this:

Let  call "x₁"  distance between center of the earth and the object, and

"x₂" the distance between center of the moon and the object, Mt mass of the earth, Ml mass of the moon, m₀ mass of the object

we can express:

F₁  ( force between earth and the object )

F₁ = K *  Mt * m₀/ ( x₁)²        K is a gravitational constant

F₂  (force between mn and the object)

F₂ = K * Ml * m₀ / (x₂)²

Then:

F₁ = F₂               K*Mt*m₀ / x₁²   =  K*Ml*m₀ /x₂²

Or  simplifying the expression

Mt/ x₁²  =  Ml/ x₂²

We know that   x₁   +  x₂  = 384000 Km then

x₁ =  384000 - x₂

Mt/( 384000 - x₂)²  =  Ml / x₂²

Mt *  x₂²  =  Ml *( 384000 - x₂)²

We need to solve for x₂

Mt *  x₂²  =  Ml *[ ( 384000)² + x₂² - 768000*x₂]

By substitution:

5.972*10∧24*x₂² = 7.348*10∧22 * [ 1.47*10∧11 ] + 7.348*10∧22*x₂² -

                                7.348*10∧22*768000*x₂

Simplifying by 10∧22

5.972*10²*x₂²  = 7.348* [ 1.47*10∧11 ] + 7.348*x₂²- 7.348*768000*x₂

Sorting out

5.972*10²*x₂²- 7.348*x₂² = 10.80*10∧11 - 56,43* 10∧5*x₂

(597,2 - 7,348 )* x₂²  = 10.80*10∧11 - 56.43*10∧5*x₂

590x₂²  + 56.43*10∧5*x₂ - 10.80*10∧11 = 0

Is a second degree equation

x₂  =  -56.43*10∧5 ± √3184*10∧10 + 25488*10∧11  / 1160

x₂ ₁  = -56.43*10∧5 + √3184*10∧10 + 25488*10∧11  / 1160

x₂ ₁  =  -56.43*10∧5 + √3184*10∧10 + 254880*10∧10  / 1160

x₂ ₁  = -56.43*10∧5 + 10∧5 [ √3184 + 254880 ] /1160

x₂ ₁  =  -56.43*10∧5 + 508* 10∧5  / 1160

x₂ ₁  =  451.27*10∧5/1160

x₂ ₁  =  4512.7*10∧4 /1160

x₂ ₁  = 3.89*10∧4  km (distance between the moon  and the object)

x₂ ₁  = 38900 km

x₂ = 38900 km

We dismiss the other solution because is negative and there is not a negative distance

Then the distance between the earth and the object is:

x₁  = 384000 - x₂

x₁ = 384000 - 38900

x₁ = 345100 km

Mass of marble Kinetic energy of marble Potential energy of marble Height of marble from ground

Answers

Answer: D

Height of marble from ground

Explanation:

From the formula of kinetic energy and potential energy,

K.E = 1/2mv^2

While

P.E = mgh

From all the parameters given from the question. You can see that mass is constant, acceleration due to gravity is also constant.

Independent variable must be a value that can varies.

Since Jack rolled a marble down a ramp and recorded the potential energy and kinetic energy of the marble at different positions on the ramp to see the effects on both energies.

This different position must be the height which will produce an effect on the potential and kinetic energy of the marble.

Independent variable always provides an effect for dependent variable. Which are kinetic energy and potential energy in this case.

Height of marble from ground is the right answer.

What is the amount of effort required to lift up 600N load by using a lever of one meter length whose fulcrum is 20cm far from load? Efficiency=75%​

Answers

Answer: 112.5N

Explanation: Given that the

Load L = 600N

Distance moved by load = 20cm

Since the lever is one metre, the distance moved by the effort will be

100 cm - 20cm = 80 cm

Efficiency = 75%

Efficiency of a machine is the ratio of the effort multiply by distance covered by the effort to the load multiply by the distance covered by the load as percentage.

75/100 = (effort × 0.8)/ ( 600 × 0.2)

Cross multiply

80 effort = 9000

Effort = 9000/80

Effort = 112.5 N

Therefore,  the amount of effort required to lift up the load is 112.5N

what is the numerical value in meters per second squared of the acceleration of an object experiencing true free fall

Answers

Answer:

9.8m/s²

Explanation:

An object experiening a free fall is simply under the influence of gravity.

When an object is influenced by gravity, the object falls with an acceleration known as acceleration due to gravity.

This acceleration known as acceleration due to gravity has a constant value of 9.8m/s².

Which statement best compares the accelerations of two objects in free fall?
O The heavier object has a greater acceleration.
O The object that has the greater surface area has the lower acceleration,
The object that has the smaller mass has the greater acceleration.
O The objects have the same acceleration

Answers

Answer:

C. The object that has the smaller mass has the greater acceleration.

Explanation:

Two objects in free fall are accelerated due to gravity.

According to Newton's second law, if two objects with different masses have same force, then object with light or smaller weight will fall with greater acceleration while the object with greater mass will fall with less acceleration.

Hence, the correct option is C.

if san andreas fault slips 2.5 cm each year how far would it separate in 100 years

Answers

Answer:

250cm or 2.5m

Explanation:

using direct variation

the length is = l

the time (year) = t

let k be the constant

so he have:

l=kt

2.5=k× 1

k= 2.5

Now in the next statement the 100 is given but not the length so

l=kt

~ l=k× 100 years

But k = 2.5

so :

l= 2.5×100

l= 250 cm

Hence it will be 250cm or 2.5m at which they will get separated

A person is pulled to the right on a sled (total mass of 52.9 kg) across the surface of a frozen pond with a force of 67.7 Newtons so that they move with a constant velocity. What is the force of friction acting on the sled?

A ball held 2.0 meters above the floor has 59 joules of potential energy the bald mass is about

Answers

Answer:

Mass of ball = 3.0102 Kg.

Explanation:

Potential energy at height h is given by

PE = mgh

where m is the mass of the body

g is the the acceleration due to gravity whose value is 9.8 m/s^2

h is the height from surface level

PE is potential energy

In the problem given h = 2 meters

PE = 59 joules

59 = m*9.8*2

=> m = 59/9.8*2 = 3.0102 Kg

Thus, mass of ball is 3.0102 Kg.

Which term is the product of force and distance? A) power B) work C) net force D) acceleration

Answers

Answer:

B. Work

Explanation:

I took the test! (e2020)

Have an awesome day!

The term is the product of force and distance is work. Therefore, option B is correct.

What is work ?

Work is defined as the energy that is applied to or removed from an object by applying force along a displacement. For a constant force acting in the same direction as the motion, the work is simply equal to the product of the force's magnitude and the distance traveled.

Work and energy differ greatly from one another. Work is the transmission of energy over a specific distance in one direction with the aid of a force.

Three categories can be used to classify the type of labor performed. Positive work, negative work, and zero work are the three types. The angle between force and displacement determines the kind of work that is done.

Thus, option B is correct.

Answers

Answer:

B. 1500 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Momentum p = m* v

In any type of collision, the total momentum is preserved!

The total momentum before and the total momentum after the collision is the same. We know the mass and speed after the collision so we can calculate the total momentum.

p1 + p2 =

m1*v1 + m2*v2

m1 = me = 300 kg

v1 = 3 m/s

v2 = 2 m/s

Substitute the given numbers:

300*3 + 300+2

900 + 600

1500 kg*m/s, which is answer B.

According to the information, Tina is doing work when she holds the rope steady as the puppy pulls it. Thus, the correct option for this question is C.

What is work done in terms of physics?

In terms of physics, work done may be characterized as the product of the component of the force in the direction of the displacement and the magnitude of this displacement. The formula for calculating work done is as follows:

Work done = Force (F) × Displacement (D).

According to the context of this question, when Tina and her puppy are tugging on a rope, each pulling on opposite ends. The work done by both is estimated when they hold and pull the rope toward their side. The more they stretch the more work is performed by them.

Therefore, Tina is doing work when she holds the rope steady as the puppy pulls it. Thus, the correct option for this question is C.
