What gravitational force does the earth exert on a person

Physics
1 answer:
lara [203]2 years ago

The  gravitational force exerted by the earth on a person standing on the earth's surface is 602.74 N.

<h3>What is the gravitational force of the earth on the person?</h3>

The gravitational force exerted by the earth on a person standing on the earth's surface is given below as follows:

  • F = \frac{Gm^{1}m^{2}}{r^{2}}

where

G = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹

m¹ = 62 kg

m² = 5.97 * 10²⁷ kg

r = 6.4 * 10⁶ m

F = \frac{5.97*10^{24}*62*6.67*10^{-11}}{(6.4*10^{6}){2}} = 602.74\:N

Therefore, the gravitational force exerted by the earth on a person standing on the earth's surface is 602.74 N.

A piston of volume 0.1 m3 contains two moles of a monatomic ideal gas at 300K. If it undergoes an isothermal process and expands
seropon [69]

Answer:

the work is done by the gas on the environment -is W= - 3534.94 J (since the initial pressure is lower than the atmospheric pressure , it needs external work to expand)

Explanation:

assuming ideal gas behaviour of the gas , the equation for ideal gas is

P*V=n*R*T

where

P = absolute pressure

V= volume

T= absolute temperature

n= number of moles of gas

R= ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

P=n*R*T/V

the work that is done by the gas is calculated through

W=∫pdV=  ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV

for an isothermal process T=constant and since the piston is closed vessel also n=constant during the process then denoting 1 and 2 for initial and final state respectively:

W=∫pdV=  ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV =  n*R*T  ∫(1/V) dV = n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)

since

P₁=n*R*T/V₁

P₂=n*R*T/V₂

dividing both equations

V₂/V₁ = P₁/P₂

W= n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)  = n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ )

replacing values

P₁=n*R*T/V₁ = 2 moles* 8.314 J/mol K* 300K / 0.1 m3= 49884 Pa

since P₂ = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

W= n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ ) = 2 mol * 8.314 J/mol K * 300K * (49884 Pa/101325 Pa) = -3534.94 J

Write a hypothesis why the moon has very little liquid water.
Llana [10]
Because the Moon has a very small surface area compared to other spacial geo-bodies, it has cooled down much faster than Earth. Any water on the moon would freeze.

The volume of gas in a flexible container at a depth of 10 m/33 ft will expand to ______ its original volume if taken to the sur
natulia [17]

The volume of gas in a flexible container at a depth of 10 m/33 ft will expand to double its original volume if taken to the surface.

  • What is volume:

The amount of space that a substance or object occupies.

Volume is denoted with letter V

  • What is a gas molecule?

Generally, a gas molecule is simply defined as a combination of numbers of atoms that are connected one to another.

here, 10 m/33 feet of sea water is taken to exerts a gauge pressure that is the same pressure as the atmosphere.

This means that we add one atmosphere/bar pressure for every 10 m/33 feet you descend.

The effect of this is that,

at 10 m/33 ft absolute pressure is two ata/bar

Adding another 10 m/33 ft to this depth to make it 20 m/66 ft, puts you under under three ata/bar of pressure and so on.

Descending to a depth it means that you have double the ata/bar pressure acting on you. If you decide to resurface, the pressure on the flexible container will reduce by a factor of two.

Since volume is inversely proportional to the pressure,

If the pressure reduces by a factor of 2, then the volume will increase by a factor of two.
