Answer:

The distance is shortenend by factor .1715

Explanation:

5 n  = 1/r^2

sqrt (1/5) = r

170 n  = 1 / ( x sqrt(1/5))^2

(xsqrt 1/5)^2 = 1/170

x sqrt 1/5  = .076696

x = .1715

icang [17]

Answer:

x = 220.85 ft

Explanation:

Let at any moment of time the friend's car is at some horizontal distance "x" from the position of balloon.

Now if the altitude of the balloon is fixed and it is at height "h"

so here we will have

tan \theta = \frac{h}{x}

now we know that

initially the angle of the friend's car is 35 degree

so the horizontal distance will be

x_1 = h cot35

similarly if the angle after passing the car position is 36 degree

then we have

x_2 = h cot36

now the speed of the balloon is constant

so we have

v = \frac{x_1 + x_2}{\Delta t}

5 ft/s = \frac{h cot35 + h cot36}{90 s}

5 ft/s = \frac{2.8h}{90}

h = 160.45 ft

so the final position of friend when the angle is 36 degree

x = \frac{h}{tan36}

x = \frac{160.45}{tan36}

x = 220.85 ft

If all objects that have mass also have gravity, why doesn't your pencil get pulled towards you while it sits on your desk?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The pencil is not pulled towards a person due to a very small magnitude of force between them, due to lighter masses.

Explanation:

Let us apply Newton's Law of Gravitation between a person and pencil.

Average Mass of a Normal Pencil = m₁ = 10 g = 0.01 kg

Average Mass of a Person = m₂ = 80 kg

Distance between both = r = 1 cm = 0.01 m (Taking minimal distance)

Gravitational Constant = G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

So,

F = Gm₁m₂/r²

F = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(0.01 kg)(80 kg)/(0.01 m)²

<u>F = 5.34 x 10⁻⁷ N</u>

This Force is very small in magnitude due to the light masses of both objects.

<u>Therefore, the pencil is not pulled towards a person due to a very small magnitude of force between them, due to lighter masses.</u>
