Two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of magnitude 1.00 3 1028 N when separated by 20.0 cm. If the total mass of the two objects is 5.00 kg, what is the mass of each

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass of each object is 2kg and 3 kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

Gravitational force,[tex]F=1\times 10^{-8}\ N[/tex]

The distance between masses, d = 20 cm = 0.2 m

The total mass of the two objects, M + m = 5 kg

M = 5-m

The formula for the gravitational force is :

[tex]F=G\dfrac{Mm}{d^2}\\\\1\times 10^{-8}=6.67\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{(5-m)m}{(0.2)^2}\\\\\frac{1\times10^{-8}}{6.67\times10^{-11}}=\frac{(5-x)x}{(0.2)^{2}}\\\\\frac{1\times10^{-8}}{6.67\times10^{-11}}\cdot(0.2)^{2}\\\\5.99=(5-x)x\\\\x=2\ kg\ and\ 3 \ kg[/tex]

So, the mass of each object is 2kg and 3 kg.

A coin and feather are dropped in a moon. what will fall earlier on ground.give reasons.if they are dropped in the earth,which one will fall faster

Answers

Answer:

on the moon, they will fall at the timeon earth, the coin will fall faster to the ground

Explanation:

A coin and feather dropped in a moon experience the same acceleration due to gravity as small as 1.625 m/s², and because of the absence of air resistance both will fall at the same rate to the ground.

If the same coin and feather are dropped in the earth, they will experience the same acceleration due to gravity of 9.81 m/s² and because of the presence of air resistance, the heavier object (coin) will be pulled faster to the ground by gravity than the lighter object (feather).

(b) If the ladder is just on the verge of slipping when the firefighter is 9.00 m from the bottom, what is the coefficient of static friction between ladder and ground

Answers

Answer:

a)  fr = 266.92 N,   fy = 1300 N,  b)    μ = 0.36

Explanation:

a) This is a balancing act.

Let's write the rotational equilibrium relations, where the turning point is the bottom of the ladder and the counterclockwise rotations are positive

             -w x - W x₂ + R y = 0         (1)

usemso trigonometry to find distances

            cos 60.08 = x / 7.5

            x = 7.5 cos 60.08

            x = 3.74 m

fireman

           cos 60.08 = x₂ / 4

           x2 = 4 cos 60

           x2 = 2 m

wall support

           sin 60.08 = y / 15

           y = 15 are 60.08

           y = 13 m

we substitute in equation 1

           R y = w x + W x2

            R = (w x + W x2) / y

            R = (500 3.74 +800 2) / 13

            R = 266.92 N

now let's write the expressions for the translational equilibrium

X axis

           R -fr = 0

           R = fr

           fr = 266.92 N

Y Axis  

           Fy - w-W = 0

           fy = 500 + 800

           fy = 1300 N

b) ask the friction coefficient

the firefighter's distance is

          cos 60.08 = x₃ / 9.00

          x₃ = 9 cos 60

          x₃ = 5.28 m

from equation 1

          R = (w x + W x₃) / y

          R = 500 3.74 + 800 5.28) / 13

          R = 468.769 N

we saw that

          fr = R = 468.769

The expression for the friction force is

          fr = μ N

in this case the normal is the ratio to pesos

        N = Fy

       N = 1300 N

        μ N = fr

        μ = fr / N

        μ = 468,769 / 1300

         μ = 0.36

Astronauts in space move a toolbox from its initial position ????????→=<15,14,−8>m to its final position ????????→=<17,14,−1>m. The two astronauts each push on the box with a constant force. Astronaut 1 exerts a force ????1→=<18,7,−12>???? and astronaut 2 exerts a force ????2→=<16,−10,16>????.

Required:
What is the total work performed on the toolbox?

Answers

If both forces are measured in Newtons, then the net force is

F = (18, 7, -12) N + (16, -10, 16) N = (34, -3, 4) N

The toolbox undergoes a displacement (i.e. change in position) in the direction of the vector

d = (17, 14, -1) m - (15, 14, -8) m = (2, 0, -9) m

The total work done by the astronauts on the toolbox is then

F • d = (34, -3, 4) N • (2, 0, -9) m = (68 + 0 - 36) N•m = 32 J

The work done by the two astronauts is equal to 96 J.

What is work done?

work done?Work done is defined as the product of force applied and the distance moved by the force.

Work done = Force × Distance

The forces applied = 18+16 N, 7+ -10 N, and -12 + 16N

Forces = 34 N, -3 N, and 4N

Distances = (17 - 15, 14 - 14, -1 - - 8) m

Distances = 2, 0, 7

Work done = 34 × 2 + -3 × 0 + 4 × 7

Work done = 96 J

Therefore, the work done by the two astronauts is equal to 96 J.

What would the radius (in mm) of the Earth have to be in order for the escape speed of the Earth to equal (1/21) times the speed of light (300000000 m/s)? You may ignore all other gravitational interactions for the rocket and assume that the Earth-rocket system is isolated. Hint: the mass of the Earth is 5.94 x 1024kg and G=6.67×10−11Jmkg2G=6.67\times10^{-11}\frac{Jm}{kg^2}G=6.67×10−11kg2Jm​

Answers

Answer:

The expected radius of the Earth is 3.883 meters.

Explanation:

The formula for the escape speed is derived from Principle of Energy Conservation and knowing that rocket is initially at rest on the surface of the Earth and final energy is entirely translational kinetic, that is:

[tex]U = K[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]U[/tex] - Gravitational potential energy, in joules.

[tex]K[/tex] - Translational kinetic energy, in joules.

Then, we expand the formula by definitions of potential and kinetic energy:

[tex]\frac{G\cdot M\cdot m}{r} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]G[/tex] - Gravitational constant, in cubic meters per kilogram-square second.

[tex]M[/tex] - Mass of the Earth. in kilograms.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the rocket, in kilograms.

[tex]r[/tex] - Radius of the Earth, in meters.

[tex]v[/tex] - Escape velocity, in meters per second.

Then, we derive an expression for the escape velocity by clearing it within (2):

[tex]\frac{GM}{r} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2}[/tex]

[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot G \cdot M}{r} }[/tex] (3)

If we know that [tex]v = \frac{1}{21}\cdot c[/tex], [tex]c = 3\times 10^{8}\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]M = 5.94\times 10^{24}\,kg[/tex], [tex]G = 6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}}[/tex] and [tex]M = 5.94\times 10^{24}\,kg[/tex], then the expected radius of the Earth is:

[tex]\frac{GM}{r} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{2\cdot G \cdot M}{v^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{2\cdot \left(6.67\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}} \right)\cdot (5.94\times 10^{24}\,kg)}{\left[\frac{1}{21}\cdot \left(3\times 10^{8}\,\frac{m}{s} \right) \right]^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]r = 3.883\,m[/tex]

The expected radius of the Earth is 3.883 meters.

the speed of the nerve impulse in miles per hour is 201.59 mi/hr

Explanation:

To convert this speed in meters per second to miles per hour, we use the following method;

1,609 meter = 1 mile

3,600 s = 1 hour

[tex]v(mi/h) = 90.1 \ \frac{m}{s} \times \frac{1 \ mile}{1,609 \ m} \times \frac{3,600 \ s}{1 \ hour} = (\frac{90.1 \times 3,600}{1,609} )\frac{mi}{hr} = 201.59 \ mi/hr[/tex]

Julie drives 100 mi to Grandmother's house. On the way to Grandmother's, Julie drives half the distance at 40.0 mph and half the distance at 60.0 mph . On her return trip, she drives half the time at 40.0 mph and half the time at 60.0 mph.

Required:
a. What is Julie's average speed on the way to grandmother's house?
b. What is her average speed in the return trip?

Answers

Answer:

a. The average speed on her way to Grandmother's house is 48.08 mph

b. The average speed in the return trip is 50 mph.

Explanation:

The average speed (S) can be calculated as follows:

[tex] S = \frac{D}{T} [/tex]

Where:

D: is the total distance

T: is the total time

a. To find the total distance in her way to Grandmother's house, we need to find the total time:

[tex]T_{i} = t_{1_{i}} + t_{2_{i}} = \frac{d_{1_{i}}}{v_{1_{i}}} + \frac{d_{2_{i}}}{v_{2_{i}}}[/tex]

Where v is for velocity

[tex] T = \frac{d_{1_{i}}}{v_{1_{i}}} + \frac{d_{2_{i}}}{v_{2_{i}}} = \frac{(100/2) mi}{40.0 mph} + \frac{(100/2) mi}{60.0 mph} = 1.25 h + 0.83 h = 2.08 [/tex]    

Hence, the average speed on her way to Grandmother's house is:

[tex]S_{i} = \frac{D}{T_{i}} = \frac{100 mi}{2.08 h} = 48.08 mph[/tex]

b. Now, to calculate the average speed of the return trip we need to calculate the total time:                        

[tex]D = v_{1_{f}}\frac{T_{f}}{2} + v_{2_{f}}\frac{T_{f}}{2} = \frac{T_{f}}{2}(v_{1_{f}} + v_{2_{f}})[/tex]

[tex]100 mi = \frac{T_{f}}{2}(40 mph + 60 mph)[/tex]

[tex] T_{f} = \frac{200 mi}{40 mph + 60 mph} = 2 h [/tex]

Therefore, the average speed of the return trip is:

[tex]S_{f} = \frac{D}{T_{f}} = \frac{100 mi}{2 h} = 50 mph[/tex]

He breaks the tackle and runs straight forward another 24.0 m in 5.20 s. Calculate his average velocity (in m/s) for the entire motion. (Assume the quarterback's initial direction is positive. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

Answers

Answer:

Average Velocity = 3.63 m/s

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the total displacement of the quarterback, taking forward direction as positive:

Total Displacement = 15 m - 3 m + 24 m = 36 m

Now, we will calculate the total time taken for this displacement:

Total Time = 3 s + 1.71 s + 5.2 s = 9.91 s

Therefore, the average velocity will be:

[tex]Average\ Velocity = \frac{Total\ Displacement}{Total\ Time}\\\\Average\ Velocity = \frac{36\ m}{9.91\ s}[/tex]
